UPDATE- Police Now Have a Sketch of Memphis Serial Killer

Recently I blogged about the “possible” serial killer that was targeting prostitutes in Memphis, TN. He has killed three women and attempted to kill another, but the 5th victim survived. This 5th victim, who was shot in the face by the suspect gave the police the only description they have of the killer who is murdering women in Memphis and tossing their bodies on the side of the road.

Here is the article about the killer targeting prostitutes Serial Killer

Here is the update from Fox 13 Memphis including the description of the killer, his vehicle information and a sketch.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. – Police have a sketch of the man who sources say may be responsible for the deaths of several Memphis prostitutes. FOX13 first told you about a possible serial killer targeting prostitutes earlier this month.

The sketch was made possible after a prostitute gave cops a description of the man who shot her in the face, tossed her from his car, and left her for dead. After doing some digging, we’ve learned this same person may have killed those other women we told you about earlier this month.

This is the person sources say may be responsible for the deaths of three prostitutes and for shooting a fourth woman and leaving her for dead- all of which happened within a 30 day span.

Police released the sketch after a woman gave them a description of a man she said shot her multiple times in the face and then threw her from his car. It happened on Ledger Road on February 26th, days after three other prostitutes were killed.

Trying Something New – Veering From Your Preference Checklist

The majority of us have preferences when it comes to the opposite sex. When we meet a perspective mate, we mentally go over our preference checklist and we immediately know from a physical standpoint if the person meets the criteria or if they fall short of what we prefer. Sometimes the journey to finding that special someone is enjoyable and swift, and other times it is painful and at times hilarious…well hilarious after you stop seeing them!  

Some people will say that looks aren’t everything and that the beauty we should care about comes from within, but I be damned if looks don’t play a huge part in first impressions and even in deciding if the person is worth dating.

However sometimes we get to the end of our rope and the dating scene has us exhausted by its lack of what we consider qualified mates. It gets to the point where we decide to go out of your comfort zone and “try something new.

From a personal standpoint I say that the majority of the time “trying something new” doesn’t give you the end result of happiness that you pursue and generally lands you in Disappointmentville.

One physical characteristic of a man that can immediately make me shoot him down is his height. I have never been attracted to men that are shorter than I am so I have always steered clear of short men, or shorties as I call them. When I say short, I mean shorter than I am.  I am 5’5, maybe 5’5 and a ½ on a good day, so any man shorter than 5’6ish can keep it moving because I have a son almost that height. I just cannot imagine myself dating a man that requires me to wear flats at all times, just to not exceed his height. This is one of my personal preferences, and for the most part I have kept it high on the priority list along with the requirements of having all of their teeth and all limbs.

But then there was the time I decided to “try something new”
