The Eleven Who Went to Heaven: The Case Against Ed Bell Pt. 1

Another name that appears in Lisa and Fred's investigation is Brenda Jones. In July 1971, she vanished on her way home from visiting her aunt at the hospital. She was also found in the water, under a bridge, but actually in Galveston proper. Like some of the other possible victims, her wrists and ankles were bound and she was in a state of undress. Bell knew the hospital Brenda visited too.

He'd once been admitted there for psychiatric treatment. He was released the year before Brenda's murder, but we know he returned to that hospital at least once when he tried to abduct a patient there.

When the woman initially reported what happened, she wasn't taken seriously. But her story never changed. If you're keeping track, Brenda Jones would make eight possible victims Lisa and Fred have identified. They believe she's one of the, quote, five girls in Galveston Belle mentioned.

Not everyone is convinced, though, mostly because Brenda was black and most of Belle's other alleged victims were white. But Lisa and Fred believe the connections are just too hard to ignore. Then there's the unsolved murder of Susie Bowers in 1977. She disappeared while walking in her Galveston neighborhood, just a few blocks from where Sharon Shaw and Renee Johnson were last seen.

Bell has made statements that could tie him to Susie. He told Lisa that he killed a girl in Galveston a year or two before Larry Dickens, the murder that ultimately landed him in prison. Susie's case is the only unsolved murder that seems to check all the boxes. And then there's this coincidence.

Not to mention, two years later, Susie's remains are also found in a remote field next to a canal out in Alta Loma. Lisa and Fred know Bell used to live nearby, so they track down an old neighbor of his who confirms where Bell parked his trailer back in the mid-70s. The spot is roughly 20 miles from where Susie went missing and just 2.3 miles from where she was found.

If Bell really killed 11 girls, that leaves two more. And Lisa and Fred have identified who they think those two could be. It's another best friend, double homicide case that matches part of Bell's list. Two in Dickinson, one blonde, one brunette. Their names are Brooks Bracewell and Georgia Gere.

In September 1974, Brooks and Georgia decided to cut class. That afternoon, they ended up at the El Rancho Motel in a public area with games like pool and pinball. Other kids from school, even Brooks' older sister, were there too. When it was time to go, some of the kids caught a ride with a friend, but there was no room in the car for Brooks or Georgia. It wasn't a big deal, though.

They weren't far from home and could walk. But as the car pulled away, one boy looked back at the girls. It looked like they were trying to hitchhike. When the girls didn't come home that night, their parents involved the police, but they assumed the girls had run away. It took years to finally track them down, out in a drainage ditch in an oil field.
