We were walking in the grass near the softball field. I was 11 at the time and it was creepy the way he drove up beside us and just kept following along. The truck was only moving as fast as we were walking. It just sort of made the hair on the back of your neck stand up. You know there's something wrong with this guy. We started to get scared and we ran out of the park down Hill Street.
and then up Thorn Street toward West Ward School. He was following us and when we got to Ashley's house, her mother yelled at the man and he gunned the van out of there.

But after a bit of small talk, they started getting into the real questions, specifically about Larry's stalking habits. And surprisingly, Larry started to open up. He told the detectives that every once in a while, when he would be driving down the road, he would slip into these dreamlike states. And the things that would happen during these episodes, well, Larry had a hard time remembering them.

He said he would come to and he would be sitting in his van, confused. When he would look around him, there would be strange items lying nearby. Sometimes he would find women's underwear, car keys, a young girl's bra, but he said he could never remember where they came from. Disturbed, he said he always threw the items away and went on as if nothing happened.

Now, following this, the detectives knew that this was a disturbed individual. In fact, after this interview, they even set him up with a therapist. And during Larry's appointment with this therapist, he talked to them about his violent dreams, the ones where he would rape, and murder women.

After their session, the therapist believed that he suffered from adult antisocial behavior and dream anxiety disorder. Author Christopher Hawley Martin stated, quote, the doctor reported that Hall was a severely disturbed man with grossly distorted thinking and depersonalized states. But despite these shocking details, Larry was once again allowed to go free.
