Every fall, thousands of students showed up. They moved into apartments, unpacked their things, and prepped for the upcoming semester. It was a college town where the biggest worry was when your next assignment was due or whether your roommate would get along with you. But in 1990, someone was already in the trees nearby. watching he had come from elsewhere carrying something no one could have imagined and by the time the first week of classes was over five students were dead and the man responsible was closer than anyone thought this is the story of the gainesville ripper crime conspiracy cults serial killers and murder all things that i love to consume and i know you do too you sick twisted beautiful intellectually minded freak
And today we are talking about a very infamous killer that I think a lot of people don't know about. And he is the killer that inspired the franchise Scream. So without further ado, let's unbuckle our seatbelts, go Mach 5 down the highway, slam on the brakes, and bust through the windshield into this infamous case together.
Let's take a quick pause to talk about something I love and the pun pause is intended because I'm talking about my kitty cats. Now my cats are my children and they deserve the best.
So when they started dealing with constant hairballs and getting a little chunky, I actually looked at what was in their food and it was mostly fillers and mystery ingredients I couldn't even pronounce. And that's when we switched to Smalls. Smalls is fresh human grade cat food made with preservative free, 100% human grade ingredients. The kind of stuff you'd actually find in your own fridge and it's delivered right to your door. And since switching, I mean, the hairballs have basically stopped and honestly their litter box is a lot less stinky, It's nice. And here's why it works. Cats are little carnivores and Smalls is gently cooked with no fillers and no artificial junk. So more of the nutrients actually get digested, if that makes sense, which means more energy and a silkier coat and fewer hairballs and less stinky poops and a healthier cat all around.
My cats go absolutely feral for these recipes. But don't take my word for it. Forbes ranked Smalls the best overall cat food and Buzzfeed said that their cats went completely ballistic for the stuff. Can confirm. And after switching, 88% of cat owners reported overall health improvements. And if you're at all spooked by commitment, which I totally get, you don't have to be because you can try Smalls risk-free. If your cat will need it, then they will refund your order. So stop serving your little carnivore a bowl of processed shortcuts. And for a limited time, because you are a crime conspiracy cult and murder listener, you can get 60% off your first order. Plus free shipping and free treats for life when you head to smalls.com slash CCCM.

And let's get back to it. Danny Harold Rowling was born on May 26, 1954 in Shreveport, Louisiana. And his parents, James and Claudia, had married roughly a year earlier when Claudia was in her late teens slash early twenties. And it only took James about two weeks of marriage to show Claudia who he really was. And the violence started almost before their life together had a chance to begin. Now, James Rowling was a police officer on the Shreveport force, and he carried a badge professionally and brought the authority that came with it into his home every single night.
To the outside world, he was law enforcement, but behind closed doors, he was the very thing people call law enforcement about. And when Claudia found out she was pregnant, James didn't celebrate. And James resented the pregnancy and told Claudia the child was her own doing. Don't think that's how that works, James. I think it takes two to tango, James, you fucking idiot. And he said that he never asked for it and didn't want it.
