Dr. Kris Mohandie, a forensic psychologist, suggests that the investigation into a potential serial killer case in Philadelphia might reveal a wider network involved in distributing "snuff" films for profit. The case centers around Raymond "RC" Horsch, an 82-year-old pornographer who died last year, and his son Eugene, 44, arrested on unrelated charges this June. Police found chemicals, ammunition, drugs, and alleged snuff videos at the family home in Olney, Philadelphia. These discoveries link to missing persons cases involving seven women, five of whom are believed deceased. Multiple law enforcement agencies are involved, including the FBI and Philadelphia police homicide detectives.
