How was Kathy Bates’ character in Misery not a Watch List?

[MenacingMonk]

This crazy broad was named the Dragon Lady for killing infants in a damn hospital.

Had a scrap book about her murders too. Wouldn’t the damn police find that during a search of her house?

 

[born of fire]

did she do the baby murders in the same town the misery story was in?

cause if she moved far away and never tried to work at hospital again she could’ve gotten away with it tbh. especially in the late 80s.

edit: in the book she did her murders in bakersfield ca. she got acquitted for lack of evidence. she moved to colorado later. keeping a low profile in the new town i can she how she got away with it.

The sheriff found articles in a library though.

Didn't they say she kept switching towns? Also, it was like 1980, they didn't have all the computers and sophisticated stuff they have now.

I know she was tough, but those head shots shoulda been it. She got the Samoan skull.

They didn’t have watchlists until like the 00s, they caught Jeffery dahmer twice I believe before they finally did something about it
