NBC News ^ | 7/13/17 | DANIEL ARKIN

Posted on 07/13/2017 4:10:29 PM PDT by Timpanagos1

A lawyer for Cosmo DiNardo, the man linked to the search for four missing men in Pennsylvania, said Thursday that his client had admitted to killing them and had told authorities where to find the bodies.

The attorney, Paul Lang, said his DiNardo, 20, confessed to "the four murders" and was prepared to plead guilty to four counts of first-degree murder. Prosecutors agreed to take the death penalty off the table, Lang said.

Zero chance this POS dug a 12ft trench by himself to bury these guys. Someone else is going down and I don’t think one of the dead was in on it as far as murder, maybe a rip off. So who helped with the grave? Parents one way or another have blood on their hands.

If he had access to a backhoe, it is quite possible for him to have dug such a hole by himself. In fact, I see it as the only way possible he could have dug such a hole.

The guy looks fat to me. He doesn't looks like he has the stamina to dig a 4 foot hole, let alone a 12 foot hole.

Pretty much all of them are sexual deviants such as necrophiliacs or sadists. I don’t know if most are homos, but I wouldn’t doubt that the proportion among serial killers is much higher than homos in the general population.

Definitely so. Just do a search on the term "homosexual serial killers." They are *WAY* overrepresented in this particular class of murderers.

Also their murders often end up being particularly gruesome and sadistic. Some of them of which I have read just give me the shudders.

Drugs were involved. Nothing good ever happens when drugs are involved.

Meth can make people hyper paranoid. Perhaps that coupled with someone already suffering psychotic issues was enough to flip his switch into full out psycho.

Possibly homosexual, but the names involved could also point to Mafia. Location, names, money, Mafia.

Mafia wannabe. Professionals would not have made so many stupid mistakes, like trying to sell a victims car.

Some background info. Police say had numerous contacts with Cosmo DiNardo since 2011. Gun charge was delayed from May since mental health paperwork was filled out incorrectly. Dropped out of Arcadia Univ. and school banned him from campus. http://www.philly.com/philly/news/pennsylvania/missing-men-bucks-weintraub-20170713.html

I hate to say it, but New Hope? That’s a mecca for f a gs right there.

I didn't know that.

Not that I really believe they have to be homos.

They don't, but it appears that a majority of them are.

And, I’m not sure this is serial killing, but mass murder.

And this could be true too. This may have been his only effort at killing people, but it still doesn't make sense as to why he did it.

Perhaps he killed one in a fit of rage, and he knew the others would be able to point to him as a suspect, and so he lured them out one by one to eliminate them as potential witnesses.

I guess we'll just have to wait for more information to come forth.

Cosmo DiNardo is escorted to a vehicle while in police custody on Thursday, July 13, 2017, in Doylestown, Pa..... Lawyer Paul Lang, a defense attorney for DiNardo, said Thursday that his client 'has admitted killing the four men'....OR...'Participating in the killing of the four men"..... police picked up another man, called 'a second person-of-interest' in the case, at a home in the 800 block of Magee Avenue in Northeast Philadelphia, according to Fox29 News.....So apparently a co-conspirator was involved in three of the murders as they're saying now.

[Wikipedia] “a serial killer is a person who murders three or more people, in two or more separate events over a period of time, for primarily psychological reasons.

That actually fits, depending upon what you mean by "separate events." I'm sure each person's murder would have appeared to be a "separate event" to the victim.

I doubt he killed them all at the same time.

....”Some of them of which I have read just give me the shudders”.....

It’s correct most serial killers are also sexual deviants in one form or many. Often too ‘the act of killing’ gives them a sexual high or release or both.

None appear to be very bright....DiNardo tried to sell a car for $500. belonging to one of the missing men just 3 days after he was first arrested and let go.....naturally he was arrested for stealing the car and bond set very high as determined a flight risk. Of which ‘Daddy’ can’t bail him out.

Police Arrest Second Person of Interest in Bucks County Murders: A possible accomplice was taken into custody in Northeast Philly

"The person, who has not been identified, was taken into custody in the 800 block of Magee Avenue, a source told Philly.com. FOX29 reports that the second person of interest has a criminal record, including two drug arrests in Bensalem, and was reportedly the victim of a shooting in March...."

"... An anonymous source told the Associated Press Thursday that DiNardo had an accomplice. The source said DiNardo, who has a history of mental illness, killed the men after feeling cheated or threatened during multiple drug transactions, then burned their bodies and buried them in a 12-foot grave on his family’s Solebury Township farm using heavy equipment from his father’s construction business."

Most serial killers are homosexual.

I actually looked into this: It isn't most, but it's 33%, and considering something like 1-1.5% of the population is homosexual, that's an incredible over representation. Further, I only counted them as homo if they'd committed sodomy as part of the crime.

Interestingly, it's the same in all countries that keep dependable records (U.K., Germany, Russia, etc.). But not only is it the same across the world, it comes up the same ratio between men and women (obviously, there are far fewer women but it's a 1/3 split).

I would be interested to see your data on this. I have not done an in depth study on this, I have simply looked up lists of serial killers and cross referenced them to lists of homosexual serial killers. It looked to me at the time that the numbers of serial killers that were homosexual were over 50%.

Further, I only counted them as homo if they'd committed sodomy as part of the crime.

I think that is an incorrect standard. I seem to recall reading of many cases in which a known homosexual serial killer just killed people without sodomizing them. Apparently they eventually got their "thrill" from the act of murder itself, instead of sodomy.

Interestingly, it's the same in all countries that keep dependable records (U.K., Germany, Russia, etc.). But not only is it the same across the world, it comes up the same ratio between men and women (obviously, there are far fewer women but it's a 1/3 split).

Even if the claim of "most" is incorrect, it is indisputable that they are way over represented among the ranks of serial killers. On top of that, homosexual murders tend to be extremely brutal, often not content with just killing someone, they have to smash or stab them some insane numbers of times to dissipate their passion.

A lot of queers have other serious mental issues that go way beyond just being queer.

You can say that again!

Significantly Higher Rates of:
Alcoholism Drug Abuse
Incarceration
Suicide
Homicide
Domestic Violence
Derogatory interfaces with police
Shorter Life Expectancy
Venereal Diseases
Depression
High numbers of sexual partners (between 10 and 15 TIMES as many)

If people were REALLY compassionate towards homos, they'd work to find a cure for it. But as is always the case with liberals, it's more important to feel virtuous than to be virtuous.

Liberalism is based on emotions, not rationality. It's also a knee jerk reactionism to anything seen as normal or traditional.
