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.

    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.
