Before dying earlier this month, Larry Webb confessed to killing Susan Carter and her child and burying their bodies in his yard

A man confessed on his deathbed to killing a 10-year-old girl and her mother, closing a 24-year-old cold case in Beckley, West Virginia.

After the confession, officials found remains believed to be those of Susan and Natasha “Alex” Carter, her daughter, in Beckley on Monday.

The mother and daughter were last seen on 8 August 2000.

Larry Webb, who was indicted in October 2023, confessed to the crime after investigators visited him at the Hilltop nursing home center earlier in April.

Before he died in custody, he admitted to burying their bodies in his back yard, according to a West Virginia state police news conference on Tuesday.

    Thank the Lord that Christianity allows this man to enter paradise since he was able to “repent” before he died. That’s the most important thing here.

      Turning the other cheek is required for Christians after they see all horrible people who flipped at the last second and got into heaven.

        I remember even at like the age of 10 when I was still steeped in this shit. Deep. I would still think about how this was kind of a cheat code, and kind of bullshit.

      Yup. And let’s hope the mom and her child repented for any sins before they were murdered, or they don’t get tickets to heaven. /s

      Same thing for Islam. For Judaism, you don’t go to heaven eitherway.

      Yeah, but he’ll be the one who gets the room next to the noisy ice machine for all eternity.
