Talk:Gerald Parker

Where's the serial?
The article reports on ONE murder. In the second of its two whole sentences it refers to some "Bedroom Basher" crimes, but they are otherwise not discussed.Tkotc (talk) 00:30, 24 April 2012 (UTC)

Unusual aspect -- Met victim's son
This murderer admitted that during one of the rape murders, he was unaware that the victim's young son (5 years old?) came walking up the hallway to the bedroom of his mother, saying "Something's wrong with mommy," and that he, the murderer pushed him aside. (The police report version, apparently from interviewing the child, differs slightly in that the child reported being reassured by the murderer that "everything is okay" or something to that effect and sent back to bed. This is covered in the "Cold Case Files" television episode.)  A pure real-life horror story. Starhistory22 (talk) 21:54, 4 March 2016 (UTC)

Mother - Frankie Parker
Florence Russel, the woman who raised Parker, stated that his mother died in 1963 and lived in Phoenix, AZ. I found an obituary for a Mrs. Frankie Parker and daughter (the mother died during childbirth), in a paper dated September 1964, with a funeral home located in Phoenix. I'm wondering if this is his mother, and if so, the date should be modified, but I haven't been able to find any additional information. https://www.newspapers.com/clip/114849292/frankie-parker-and-daughter/ TrueCrimeData (talk) 04:43, 19 December 2022 (UTC)
