Where investigative reporting meets cinematic true crime.
On Among Monsters, Damien Vale uncovers the chilling true story of David Elliot Penton, the military man turned serial killer whose family-man facade concealed a monster hunting young girls across the highways of Texas, Ohio, and beyond.
Tonight, step into a haunting narrative of hidden evil and systemic failures. David Penton, a seemingly ordinary soldier and father, unleashed a decades-long reign of terror after his own son's mysterious death. Explore how this elusive predator exploited the lack of national databases and interstate communication in the 1980s, leaving a trail of abducted and murdered children like Christina Williams, Nydra Ross, and Tammy Vincent, while repeatedly slipping through law enforcement's grasp.
Damien Vale delves into Penton's chilling intelligence, his manipulative letters from prison, and the eventual forensic breakthroughs that finally connected his cross-country crimes. This episode is a stark examination of child abduction, serial killer psychology, and the critical systemic changes (like the advent of Amber Alerts) born from such profound tragedies. A vital listen for true crime enthusiasts, those interested in missing persons cases, and anyone seeking to understand the enduring impact of unseen monsters.
