Joliet Authorities: 4 Young Adults Rob, Murder 2 Friends, Then Continue ‘Party Atmosphere’

JOLIET, Ill. (STMW) — Police say four young adults, one the son of a Joliet police sergeant, lured two friends to a house, robbed and strangled them and then played video games until police arrived.

After attempting to dismember the bodies Thursday afternoon, the suspects “continued the party atmosphere,” Police Chief Mike Trafton said.

“This is one of the most brutal, heinous and upsetting things I’ve ever seen in my 27 years of law enforcement,” Trafton said Friday. “Not only the crime scene, but the disregard for common decency toward human beings.”

Adam M. Landerman, 19; Alisa R. Massaro, 18; Bethany L. McKee, 18; and Joshua F. Miner, 24, were charged about 4 p.m. Friday with six counts of first-degree murder for the Thursday deaths of Eric Glover, 22, and Terrence O. Rankins, 22, at Massaro’s house, 1121 N. Hickory St. All four are being held in lieu of $10 million bail.

One of the victims was a varsity football and wrestling team member...did they drug him first? As described, it does not make sense.

Ten million dollars bond from each perp for the coffers. Wonder if someone will exploit one of the youts for shock news and ratings.

Checked out the Alisa girl’s page...viewed the photos link. Some really mixed up crazy stuff there; not to mention just downright dark, evil, disgustingly filthy garbage. Young woman’s mind so totally warped. Unreal. Absolutely unreal.

I’ve already checked out the two females on FB. They’re both incredibly ignorant, white “wigger” whores.

From her MySpace page, it looks like she and her friends are fans of Insane Clown Posse.

The logo of the meat cleaver-carrying clown is her background image.

Yeah. Feral youth.

Same here. But where were the parents of the perps?

Who I'd like to meet:

Time flows like a dark horde, consuming all in its path. Man lives his life in the blink of an eye. Just as day becomes night, all life fades into death. In death each person will be judged for his deeds performed while alive. There are the few who walk a life of purpose, and there are those who trod the path of greed, their souls host to demons. Time slows near each person's end. Those whose deeds were evil grasp onto life as long as they can because, though they don't know what awaits them in the afterlife, they feel for them it is a horror beyond words. Time stops in this world, as the heart becomes still and the soul leaves the body. In the afterlife time is eternal, and even death is but a new beginning. For you see, when you step into death your soul steps upon the floor of a dark chamber and you look to see it empty, except for a strange looking box on an old wooden table. On the front of the box, you will see a painted question mark faded with time and a twisted crank handle on its side. Turning the handle, a sharp melodic tune will fill the air. For the evil ones this sound will be a deafening noise reverberating off the walls and building into a climatic terror. But the surprise is when the music stops as you slowly turn the handle... and then the top of the box pops. For the few, they will see a vision of God with a golden light warming their souls as they step forth into eternal peace. For most they will see a fog seeping from the box, stripping their sanity, as they witness an image of hell, spawned and formed from their own evil; a hideous reflection of their demented souls. The floor of the room begins falling away as they plummet into a bottomless pit full of shadowy creatures, forever to be lost in a sinister void. What will be in store for you is the mystery, but if you take a look within yourself you will find the answer. For now, you still have time to change the outcome of... the mighty RIDDLE BOX! ....

Where were the parents? Good question. Alisa Massaro is bipolar, a cutter, has been hospitalized for depression, and is an Insane Clown Posse fan, but her father didn't see any warning signs.
“All I can say is it’s a terrible thing that happened, and I can’t believe my daughter had anything to do with it,” he said in a brief telephone interview. “I don’t know what happened. I just don’t know what to say. I can’t really talk about it. I’m too devastated, and I can’t talk about it.”

From his MySpace page, it appears that Adam Michael is barely literate. Try to read the messages. Or not.

According to him, his favorite movie is "Scarface."

(A "Bethanii McKee" is mentioned on his page, who is also accused in the murders).

Yes, true. The media will be trumpeting this white on black killing incessantly. Is the story even real, or overflowing with bad reporting? I noted one victim’s (Glover) stepfather (last name Jones), younger brother (last name Williams), and other younger brother (last name Johnson) were all quoted.

I recall an old stereotype joke along those lines.

Why 6 counts of murder??

MAYBE they killed each of them 3 times ... /sarc

More logically, the murder charge is leveled against the perp, so between the 4 accused, each has 1 count and two of them have a second count. My 'guess' (for what it is worth) would be the girls only have a single charge while the guys are accused of killing both victims.

Only because the system was so corrupt it put innocents on death row. Go ask Richie Daley. He knows.

“At this point in our country, I don’t believe anything that the MSM passes off as “news.”

Whats even scarier is if the story is totally false but
kept in play and kids are found innocent.
Hypothetically, Say that Glover and Rankins
were there to rob the others and they were
killed. The kids panicked and tried to cover it up.
Rodney King all over again.

Of course looking at the police records of the suspects
may be convincing otherwise. Who knows at this point. The
fact is, the media is going to play this to the hilt to
offset the astronomical proportion of black on white crimes.

My bad. In an earlier post I suggested the perps were “not Amish”. SOrry about that but seeing the pictures, I was right anyway, they are not.

I guess these biches flunked out of Sunday School.

Great, I'm surrounded by these animals. Chicago to the northeast of me and Joliet to the southwest.

This is why I'm a big home defense advocate.

While I'm pretty sure this was a rhetorical question, it starts with mommy the $5 crack ho having kids with ten different baby daddies, none of which are ever present in the children's lives ........

Looks like meth heads to me.

I suspect that the two dead "friends" were doing drug business with the four perps.

There has got to be an organized effort of fasting and prayer. I heard on catholic radio yesterday morning about all the miracles that occurred in our country at its founding and always it happened after fasting and prayer.
