Interesting/scary facts of your sorority

I sorta have one myself...I go to Hofstra in LI and about 4-5 years ago a kid named Max Kolb was murdered by a member of a fraternity (not sure which one and I'd rather not speculate since I don't really remember which one he was from). Apparently the frat guy took Max to a motel and murdered him. There are many stories that circulate about what exactly happened but noone is really sure. Anyway, the frat kid cut Max into pieces and had kept him in the trunk of his car on campus for a while. I'm an RA and my RD (who was a freshman at the time) lived in a building right where the car was parked and everyone would be walking around smelling this awful smell but noone knew what it was or where it was coming from. Eventually the smell just went away.

SO...an alumni of my sorority was due to move into an off campus house with the frat kid that committed the murder and some other frat/sorority members (we can't have houses so alot of the times people buy houses off campus and either live with their organization or other orgs). They moved in and one day the alumni of my sorority was going to rake the backyard because there were leaves everywhere. Apparently, the frat kid ran outside and grabbed the rake from her and was like "this is a man's job let me do it" and she let him. A few weeks later the cops came to their door and arrested the kid and found Max's body buried in the backyard! Apparently, my alumni sister was going to rake right over where Max was buried and the kid got scared! Very scary story and also very very sad. We have a telethon every year to celebrate Max.

This sounds like the biggest Urband Legend I've ever heard. Ok, it could possibly be true but Really?

uhmm it is true. you can do a search on max kolb. this only happened a few years ago. in fact here is a snippet from a news article...

"Police said Alexander stored Kolb's naked body in his Land Rover for seven days, then dropped it off at a storage facility for five days before burying it behind an upscale house he rented in Long Beach, Long Island. His father is a wealthy Atlanta financier. Police are now investigating whether Alexander is a serial killer responsible for similar killings outside New York."

did the whole raking incident occur where my sister was going to rake and Alexander stopped her? I can't tell you that I'm 100% positive. I got this information from other people (my RD and some sisters)...I had not firsthand spoken to the alumni. *shrugs*

You could sell that story to the writers of Law & Order. They love to do "based on actual event" stories. It seriously reminds me of things you see on that show.

Not really scary, just weird... We have bullet holes in the the kitchen window of our house. Don't know how long they've been there, but the glass hasn't been changed in years. Weird thing is, they came from the inside of the house.
