The Wackers Story..anyone? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

UM_Fan90 · 10-28-2003, 02:11 PM

I was watching UM last night and I can't stop thinking about this story. Anyone have ANY information about any updates or anything like that? It was about the older couple who were harassed for 10 years (don't know if it's still happening?) you'd THINK in 10 years they wouldv'e been able to catch the people/person involved ...there was no motive from what I saw..just some sick game it seemed like..anyone have any other information on this case? Thanks.

I saw that one too last night. I tried looking for info today with no luck. They are from Ohio, IIRC.

What floored me was that night when the relatives staked out the house and the harasser STILL managed to do his dirty work.

I'm really curious as to if there's any sort of update.

Yup, Ohio..I couldn't believe that either ..you'd think SOMEONE must of got a look..I still can't get over how long it lasted for ..I mean 10 years? ..what kinda sicko would carry that on for so long...I saw that last night and I still can't stop thinking about it. I'd love to know what happened with that.

This story was on UM back in September, because I remember it well. Very freaky.

This is one of those cases that has always stuck with me too. I've tried to search newspapers via the internet but no luck. I think it happened in Stark County, Ohio and figured there would be an article about them in it, especially it was featured on UM. Plus, it is possible that all these years later that the Wackers have passed away since they were elderly when the show was taped. It would be interesting to know if they are still alive and still being harassed to this day.

Yeah, just when I thought it was weird already..with the message on their wall about "cheaper..but will do" or something like that...the returning of the stuff that was stolen was freaky ...like how the gun was sitting on the porch ..etc ...the whole story gave me the creeps ..wish I had more answers.
