John Robinson

Born a congenital amputee, John Robinson has no hands. His arms stop at his elbows. His lower legs are attached to his hips without knees. He is 3’9’’ tall. As a child, John's parents had many worries: Would he be able to go to school? Could he hold a pencil? Could he ever support himself? Yet, through his remarkable tenacity, talent, and faith, John has succeeded in business and in building a family in a way that few may have expected from the outset. In this documentary from WMHT, we get to know a man who has made his way in a world not designed for those without the dexterity of typical arms and legs--a man who has gone on to lead what many would consider an ordinary life. Yet this ordinary life is actually extraordinary when one witnesses the determination required for John to do that which others take for granted, from driving a car to playing a round of golf.

In the winter of 1985, a small town in Kansas is rocked by a series of mysterious disappearances. A frantic call, a woman who vanished with her baby, and a trail of unsettling connections to a respected businessman named John Robinson. As investigators dig deeper, they soon find themselves navigating a dark criminal underworld, uncovering a pattern of missing women, baffling evidence, and an identity-stealing con man. But just as the trail goes cold, a new tip reopens the case, revealing a shocking secret life of violence and manipulation. This is the incredible true story of a small-time crook who became a monster, the horrifying discoveries that shocked a community, and the surprising way a missing child was found alive after 15 years.

This first Internet serial killer is one of the boldest criminals in recent history, using bondage and S&M to lure unsuspecting women to their deaths. His story is one of the most bizarre and lengthy homicidal careers in American criminal history. His brutal treatment of his sometimes willing victims stands in stark contrast to his benign, fleshy appearance. Robinson compounded his murderous ways by taking the infant of one victim and selling it to his brother, pretending to be a do-good adoption broker. He seduced vulnerable or lonely women he met through Internet chat rooms and killed them, continuing to cash their government checks or alimony payments for years with just minimal interference from their desperate families and frustrated investigators.
