Lonely Hearts Page #2

Synopsis: In the late 1940's, Martha Beck and Raymond Fernandez were America's notorious "Lonely Hearts Killers". Their lethal scam was simple; they would swindle and then viciously murder lovelorn war widows who would answer their personal ads in which Ray would describe himself as a sexy Latin Lover. Ironically, Ray's initial introduction to Martha was as a prospective mark. But when they met, it was love at first sight, perhaps as a result of their penchant for kinky sex and their mutual love for duplicity and easy money. With Martha posing as Ray's sister, they bilked elderly spinsters and widows of their savings and then viciously murdered them in a bloodbath of sexual frenzy. When they were arrested, Martha and Ray confessed to 12 killings, although it is believed the actual number is closer to 20. At their sensational trial, Martha and Ray cooed, held hands and seemed as though they could not get enough of each other. Their plea of not guilty by reason of insanity was rejected, and on Aug

watch the greyhounds run?

Think you can wait... for me?

Oh, I can wait.

The question is, can you?

Hey, you're a little kitty cat.

Toodle-loo.

Toodle-loo.

Maybe he skinned out

'cause she was broke.

Or maybe he was afraid

she was a keeper.

Either way, Martha had him...

figured at Hello.

Thou anointest my head with oil,

my cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall

follow me all the days of my life.

And I will dwell in the house

of the Lord... forever. Amen.

Dorothy.

My deepest sympathies.

Well thank you.

I'm sorry. Raymond...

Martin.

I was a customer of your husband's.

He was a tough...

but honest businessman.

And I know he'll be missed,

that son of a gun.

What company...

you with?

Bradley Coachworks in Cleveland.

I manage receivables.

So you know our...

account man, Ben Chadwick.

Of course.

Ben, he's a good man.

Anybody who knew

my father knew he was...

a son of a b*tch.

And Ben Chadwick's

been dead five years.

Oh my... god!

Oh my god!

My husband's company has been

a loyal customer for many years.

In spite of your...

disregard for the deceased,

he did a fair business with us.

And it's disgraceful

that you'd humiliate a...

patron on this, of all days.

Shame on you!

Shame on you.

Let's go, baby.

Let's go, baby.

Shame on you!

Come on.

Are you okay?

I'm okay.

It's hard to say whose...

voodoo was working on who.

But the day them

two figured each other out

was the beginning of

a bad end for a lot of people.

So what's up with Rene?

You don't need to know.

What, she's got those uh,

silver dollar summits.

Am I right?

Come on.

A week's pay for confirmation.

You don't make enough, Charlie.

Well that's true.

- Slow down here.

- Leave it alone.

- Slow down. Slow down.

- Leave it alone.

No-no, come on, stop.

Come on.

Stop.

What're you doing?

- Borrowing money?

- Shut... the f*** up.

What're you doing?

Back up! Back up, now!

Back up, sh*t stick.

We gotta get him to County.

You're not putting...

that bloody mess in my car.

Let's go.

What?

Look. Look at my car.

It's full of blood.

Next time you take the train.

I'm sorry.

Oh.

I'll pay for it.

My ass.

What're you trying to do anyway,

get yourself killed?

Baker Baker.

Baker Baker, you up?

Two Baker Baker.

Deceased female in Wantaugh,

twenty-seven thirty-two Merrick Road.

Possible suicide.

Uh, we're ten-ten.

Detective Reilly

requested you, sir.

I've been babysitting this

f***in' midget for a year, now.

Let's just go.

- With you?

- Yeah.

- Nah.

- No-no, let's just do it.

Come on.

Two Baker Baker en route.

It's raining out there.

You know if she had

any family or relatives?

I, you know, I don't... know.
