Charles Starkweather & Caril Ann Fugate - Rebel without a Conscience 

This video is sponsored by my Patreon patrons - THANK YOU! I'm going to be posting on RU-vid selected previously locked Patreon videos that are approximately 1.5 (one and a half) years old. This is one of them and RU-vid has already demonetised it with the standard claim that's it's not suitable for most advertisers....which always leaves me wondering why there's a ton of adverts when movies with the most disturbing content are aired on TV and cable? Those advertisers don't seem to have any qualms about placing their products with such content.

I grew up 2 blocks up from the Fugate place. I know many of the Starkweather family. All these generations later, that name still resonates with people in Lincoln. Thanks for making a video about this! My grandpa always said "that's the only time we locked the house. We left the keys in the pickup too. No reason to come to the door and kill anyone...take it and GO!"

You Tube is going to keep it up until nobody watches it. Can't believe they pick on one of their best channels.

Sorry to hear about YT harassing you. Addressing real life issues and how things occur without sheltering everyone used to be normal, and enlightening to share the sometimes nasty things that do happen in this world. People should be aware of such atrocities. The creation of a utopian existence without real life happening is ridiculous at best. Good luck with your future, and thanks for what you have shared thus far.

I first heard about this pair in The Frighteners, starring Michael J. Fox, a wonderful film. Thank you Oddie!

obsoleteoddity i think your channel is one of the best here.. such class and elegance!! keep up the great work and b artistic as you are.. god bless you

Carol should have been sitting in Charlie's lap when they pulled the switch. She was definitely in on it, she wasn't the innocent prisoner she claimed. Sorry, I'll just never believe she was innocent. Love your stories!!! You are a great narrator! The work you put in is amazing! Thank you!

Thank you Patrons of Patreon, loyal Oddie followers that allows us others to see this beautifully researched, put together, narrated stories by Oddie. WE THANK YOU 🤗💞

I don't think she could have stayed in her family home for a week and not known of their demise. What a sad tale of uncontrolled anger.

This is a true story. It was before my time but these two people were horrible human beings. Just awful

Triple Shame on RU-vid! Your channel is Top Quality and in a league all its own. I followed you to Patreon and I'll follow you again if need be with no hesitation. Keep Doing You, My Friend!

I grew up in Lincoln, this story is still a local legend.

Living in Nebraska, this is a legendary case in our states history.

" Charlie thought she was a wizard." Omg 😂😂😂😂😂

I was in grade school not far from Lincoln when this happened. It’s the only time in my life that I didn’t dawdle on my way home from school. We were all scared Starkweather would come to our small town and kill us if we were outside.

She is just as guilty as he was! Especially regarding her family!!

My home town. He's buried a few miles from where I live.

My God, what a tragic story. I cannot stand the fate of innocent victims. How the mind can work to go mad as a solution to other problems.

“Tossed” is a good word. Thinking about the fact that all those years he needed glasses! He may not have been a genius but may have been able to keep up. Children are vicious and cruel and he still would probably have been bullied. I think Caril may have regretted her part but she was definitely an accessory even if she didn’t personally kill anyone. As always, good research and brilliant graphics!

James Dean's character name in "Rebel..." is James Stark. Starkweather's obsession with the destructive teen Jim could have been reinforced by the name similarity.

Loser people taking the life of others without a cause and some of the dead actually stopped to help them, wow! I'm so sorry you're disappointed with RU-vid and I hope the new channel works out so you won't leave cause I always deeply enjoy your videos. I do appreciate the time and energy you put into them.

I live in NE, and here’s some additional info regarding Fugate...after her release in 76, she didnt marry until 2007, when she married Fred Clair. He was killed in a car accident in 2013, in which Fugate sustained serious injuries; he was driving the vehicle. She recently petitioned the Nebraska Parole Board for a pardon, which was denied in February 2020. She has always maintained her innocence in the killings and requested a pardon essentially so she would no longer be known as a convicted felon; her pardon application was actually supported by relatives of the murder victims. The pardon was denied because the role [of a pardon] is to restore someones’ rights, not absolve them of their crime.

I’m really sorry that RU-vid it’s not treating you fairly. Because your videos are wonderfully put together very intelligent done. And I appreciate all the hard work that goes into making each and every video and I look forward to them. You stay blessed and be safe. And I hope it works out for you.😘

Thank you; we love you !

Aww yes, glad you are back! Always a pleasure when you upload 🥰

I had family in Nebraska at this time. I remember how frightened everyone was while Starkweather and Fugate were on the loose. People who never locked their doors started locking their doors. People were jumpy and watchful.

They are getting more and more like China, RU-vid & Facebook & Twitter i love your videos and voice you put a lot of your time and labor into them! Thank you!!

Thank you for uploading Oddie! All the best to you!

As a younger person, I lived in that area. I was a young teen, so too young to know anything about it. Makes my skin crawl now, though. Excellent presentation, Oddie. 💙

You’re an awesome story teller and great job finding photos to this horrific nonfiction crime. You are brilliant in my opinion and youtube should leave you alone!

Yes you are correct. They are making it hard to find you. I looked yesterday for about an hour trying to find you and thought you were on holiday. Rumble is replacing youtube and parler is replacing Facebook. People have left in droves. I am still learning all the ins and outs of both but I know they are not censored..I believe PayPal is on Rumble so you can receive compensation. I would be very sad to lose your excellent story telling abilities. Hope all is well with Odette, Pippa and you. Warmest rewards, Sue New

A fascinating, well-done documentary! Thank you, ObsoleteOddity for all the time and work that go into your productions. A long time ago now I saw an interview with author Stephen King and he talked about how during the time of the killings he was keeping news articles, maybe even in a scrapbook, about the case. When asked why he was keeping such grim things Mr. King, who was then very young, said that it was so he would recognize Charles Starkweather if ever encountered him. Stephen King was growing up in Maine, a great distance away. I wish I could remember it better but, as I recall, Mr. King said something like he could see the emptiness of the universe in Charles Starkweather's eyes. If Charles Starkweather could have had speech therapy and had his eyes tested during childhood and gotten glasses maybe his life would have been much different and much better. Too the years of being picked on did great damage to him. I hope someone will remember this tragedy and remember to be kind to those who have differences and disabilities and to stand up for those being mistreated and will teach others to do the same.

Another great one oddie. Your voice is so soothing .

I don’t think they were born bad but, this was their form of entertainment. They enjoyed their lifestyle and thought nothing of their actions.

My parents were 14 years old living in Lincoln Nebraska when this happened.

Thank you Oddie! Good one. Caril’s eyes look evil in some pictures. Great to see your work and hear your voice.

I grew up in Nebraska. I remember my mother talking about these people when I was a kid. I definitely learned much more from you today. Thank you. Always enjoy listening to your voice with the stories.

Was anticipating your new video for the past few days. Glad you posted.

I hope you get to stay I love listening to your stories

ODDIE , I love you I haven't heard anything from you in so long I thought you forgot me .. you are so interesting so articulate in your work I know you put so much effort into it every little detail and it is so appreciated it makes one feel like they're really there on the spot and we're talking about back in history things that happened long ago,, you are so gifted and so intelligent what you do.. thank you for your gifts.. love sending your way !!!! 💖⚘👍

I loved this, I thought I knew everything about this case. You brought us great information. Thank you Odie.

I have missed you oddie. They were terrible people. I have heard of 3 different people one said the wiped her sponsor's away. Sorry oddie. Good to hear from you be safe and thank you for the video.

Thanks 4 another fantastic video Oddi really enjoyed it see u next time u post stay safe x

I truly can not understand how other channels get more views than you. Your channel is far superior to any other I've seen. Your work is brilliant and made with great quality and respect.

As a child, Stephen King apparently kept news clippings about Starkweather. He said he wanted to understand evil. Can't help but wonder how many characters these murders inspired.

Great as always Oddie!

Wow what a story. Your voice and delivery spot on. Excellent. Thank you for sharing.

These long videos are such a treat, thanks so much for sharing!

I think she was guilty as charged. She had no feelings for her family at all. Good story. thanks for taking us along.

Love your style - thank you for the great stories!

I loved the editing and aesthetics of this video, great job. 👍🏻

Thank you so very much for posting this story. I have seen 3 movies about them and so far, yours is the best post I have seen. Please, RU-vid, keep him on! You already show many true crime shows, it would be such a shame to lose this one!

Very interesting story. I had never heard of them before. You always add such great detail and it's even amazing how you make the pictures have life to them!

RU-vid gets all over me when I express my views about world events that are different from what is expected these days, so I can imagine your frustration with all the hard work your videos took to make!

Thank you for another excellent video!

I am one of your patrons on Patreon, I love to listen to your stories and I think they are all well made!! It’s too bad that RU-vid has treated you the way they have, it’s their loss, your viewers gain!! Keep up the good work Oddie!!

Thank you for sharing. I've heard this story before but as usual your narration adds that extra little something.

I never feel let down after an Oddie video. Thanks for another interesting tale from ago.

I hope your channel makes it! Absolutely the best on RU-vid! That’s all that 2020 needs- no more oddie! Good grief!

ditto on RU-vid...they're censoring heavy now...they suck...I only staying because I have some paranormal and ghost hunting channels I watch...maybe you should do the same, ghost and exploration stuff...

Great vid. I love your work, always so interesting and informative.

Regarding Oddie's ending comments: It seems they're moving everything to the "content farm" style videos that have no substance. People who had decent channels before the lockdowns really started growing fast but are now being demonetized and shadow banned. With everyone at home watching youtube, those people were making some decent money off their videos but YT couldn't allow that. My daughter has had a homeschooling channel for a few years. It was growing steadily and took off like crazy during the first lockdown, when everyone was forced to homeschool and was looking for advice. Then they demonetized and shadow banned her too. Her subs are contacting her other ways and asking why they can't find her or why they've been unsubbed. YT had the opportunity to shine here and they intentionally screwed it all up.

Oh no yt sucks If you go I'll miss you ♡

Please don't stop posting, your channel is a work of art, I'm shocked that RU-vid hasn't been supportive.

My mother was terrified as was the whole state of Nebraska. People who had never locked anything started doing so. She had cousins in Bennet and she knew Robert Jensen from his family grocery store.

Please don’t stop what you are doing because you are great at what you do.

It's a small point in this huge tragedy but I'm curious about the places where terrible crimes took place. I wonder what happened to the house where Mr. and Mrs. Lauer and Miss Fencl were murdered. It was a beautiful home in a style I'm particularly fond of. I wonder if the house was renovated and sold to new owners or left much as it was and maybe changed later. Was the house demolished and replaced with a new one? Another scenario is that the neighborhood became more of a business district and the houses replaced by stores and offices. Update: Just did a search on Google Maps. The Larsen house is still standing and appears unchanged. Some differences in the landscaping but the house is as the residents would have known it. A beautiful home.

I’m sorry about the RU-vid troubles. I hope you continue with this, if this was on places like Prime or Netflix I would buy each and every episode. Not sure if that’s an option you want to explore. This is one of the only historical true crime stories Nebraska has to offer. As a Nebraska girl myself, I agree with the statement. “Nebraska, we’re only as boring as you are.” If you look you will find the interesting People, Places and Stories that are here.

I truly enjoy your videos and the time you take to put them together that flow with your commentary is far better than those other channels. You also burry them in class and style by far. I have noticed that YT seems to be segregating a lot. So sorry that they have targeted you. You are 100 percent right that your followers know what they want to watch!!! Keep going my friend, your followers have your back!! Much love

I love your storys. Thanks from the Netherlands 🇳🇱

I'll miss this channel. It's one of my favorites.☹️😢😭

I think you are doing a wonderful job presenting these stories. I don't understand why this youtube trying to close you out. The stories are true. Very fascinating to listen and watch. Thank you for the great stories. Please let him keep present these great stories.

I love you, Oddie!!!!!! I always enjoy your videos!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

I've followed you for about 3 years my first video was the papin sisters and you've been constant throughout and haven't sold out to the ideals of YT and social media in general! Always have a soft spot for your channel 🖤

I don't understand what RU-vid are doing with all the good posters like yourself. I hope whoever is charge gets sense before they kill it beyond revival.

I'm not sure which is worse... When looking into the eyes of Charles, I instantly could spot the pure evil in his soul. And then we have Karil, with eyes that are empty. Nothing. No soul. Absolutely chilling. Thanks for another fantastic video!!!

I love your videos thanks to your narration and the quality you put into them. I'd heard about the Starkweather/Fulgate case, but never in such a complete way before now.

I love this channel! Most of us law-abiding citizens, with a working moral compass, love being vouyuers of the evil side of humanity bc it allows us to "visit" evil without "being" evil..fascinating! Thank you!

Thank you i was so addicted to your content sorry i cannot afford patron

So horrible that RU-vid is ruining wonderful, hardworking channels like this. Good luck with your new endeavor! ☮

Starky was a mean one.

The Sadist, Badlands and Natural Born Killers.

Thanks so much for your hard work and dedication. The videos that you create are totally unique and I love them all. I'm so sorry that RU-vid is giving you a hard time!!! I definitely believe Caril Ann Fugate was guilty as hell and her punishment was entirely to lenient. The people she helped to kill and their families had their chance at a "happily ever after" stolen by her and Charlie and she should have gotten life in prison, at the very least. Thanks for another great video Oddie! Blessings to you and your family. Be safe and stay healthy!❤️❤️❤️❤️💓❤️❤️

This was outstanding work. So detailed - exactly what I was looking for.

I’m a Patreon of your channel, I subscribed to your channel because of your content. You are educational, intelligent and have a variety of subjects. From junk shops in Europe to murders. I have seen some of your postings on Instagram and missed your voice so much. I was so excited to see you had downloaded to RU-vid, this year has not been the best and you’ve been one of the few bright spots. Please keep us informed of where you are. I will gladly follow you and feel strongly you’re worth paying for.

Seriously??!! I just found your channel and have started the binge watching process right after subscribing. Like you said, there's a lot of crap on youtube..... But the good channels get harassed and shut down 😒. Thank you for your hard work! It's not unnoticed, and it's very appreciated!

I don't know why yt has it in for you Oddie! Your content and videos are way superior than a lot of channels on here (I'd spend all day watching yours) it's not fair. Keep your chin up, you have 485,000 subs that love you! 😙

You have done such an excellent job with vintage videos on your channel. Thank you so much, your an inspiration. You have much love from California 💖

I thoroughly enjoy the content you create. There are other venues please don't stop what you're doing find another Outlet.

Wow....great video, Oddie! They buried him in the same cemetery as several of their victims??? Those poor families. 😳

Hellololooo, what a beautiful surprise ❤️ Thanks, love!

A great American story of youth and depravity during post war 1950s. Thank you for your fantastic video enhancements, they are marvelous.

Oh no! I didn't know anything about your channel being harassed by RU-vid. I wondered why I haven't seen an upload from you. I really really love your work and I hope you continue. Thanks for this great upload.

Love all your videos

I’m soooo sad you’re leaving... wish I had moolah to sub for patreon. I despise YT trying to chop ppl to keep them from making money for their hard earned time in which they deserve to be compensated. YT is driving out the good channels. I love when ppl have longer vids. You’re amongst my favorite channel hands down and now they are taking you from us... f***ing @ssholes Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!

I have watched literally every video you have ever posted, I absolutely adore your history, research, and perfectly matched voice for all of these historical accounts. Thank you for your videos, Oddie!

Thank you dear Oddie ♥️ Seattle 🙏🏽 P.S. Oddie! That southern accent! Bravo sir 😉 I shall follow! Your "whinge" is most justified!

You made this video in 2019, this is towards the end of 2022. I very much enjoy the videos you make and you continue to show the time and hard work so others can enjoy as well. These are some of the best "mini documentaries" to watch. Love the content, oddie!!

Another smash hit from Oddie . My girlfriend and me went to see the movie Badlands starring Martin Sheen and Sissy Spacek . The drive in theater was packed and I remember thinking about Starkweather and the obvious connection on which the movie was Very Roughly based . If I may make a suggestion = Upload your documentaries to Parler and provide a mailing address for cashiers checks and postal money orders . Thanks once more for your impeccable research and editing style . All the best and I'm looking into the YT nonsense . Q

You have a great channel here. Keep up the good work. 🙂
