Sooo many, but my favorite is this: There's an infamous Rogersville (a small town about 10 miles east from Springfield) man who was caught up in many illegal activities (including supposedly killing two people and feeding them to his hogs) and a lot of people from around Rogersville think he was the one to kill the Springfield Three. His name was Francis Robb, I'm sure you can find some information about some of his illegal activities

Springfield PC Pros on S Glenstone are pretty good, fixed my kiddos gaming laptop. Fans had to be ordered which only took a week, kiddo wasn't happy but laptops are a bit more harder to work on.

Try Kum and Go. They have some stores with shifts like that. Usually, the ones with a large fresh food business volume.

Other gas stations may have the same. Not sure as all the people I know that work at gas stations work for them.

u/ichhattekrebs, if you want to go down a horrifying morbid rabbit hole, you should look into Cassidy Rainwater. Not only what happened to her, but her mother was also a missing person in 2007, and her remains were found scattered in a field. The whole situation is so freaky and tragic.

Here's an article. The details of what they did to her are disturbing, just be warned.

Here's an article with some info on her mother.

It's not the Springfield 3, but it's a more recent and extreme case. Worth checking out if you find that stuff intriguing.

I've drove by that house several times through the years. It's in a good neighborhood surrounded by houses and off a busy street(Glenstone). It's crazy that these woman went missing within the middle of a neighborhood without a trace. As a kid I always thought it was outside the city but no, it was near the middle of Springfield.

I think someone the mom knew (previous boyfriend) had meant to take the mom and the girls just happend to be there.

I have no evidence just a rumor.

I am a woman and I have lived here my entire life. The only fear sparked by the case is that something similar can happen to anyone anywhere. Also important to note, I think a few people know/knew what happened but didn't not speak up.

If you are interested in true crime look up the killing of Ken Rex McElroy in Skidmore, Missouri. He was killed in broad daylight in a small town. No one saw what happened.
