      If a house is more than x amount of years old it can be declared a historical marker and it then takes a vote by city council or possibly the county or state to approve a tear down. Only know this because a drunk man plowed into some historical buildings near a court house in our area. The damage done made the buildings unsafe to the surrounding homes and businesses.

Most likely, she used one of the people who lived under her roof as an accomplice, because she knew they were vulnerable and would fear ending up as her victims if they refused.

    If anyone is curious on to why the house has been deemed “Historical” it’s actually because the case is still on-going and will still provide “historical evidence” to support the case thus why the floors have not been renovated yet as stated at the very beginning of the video. Also In most states a home is deemed “Historical” if it is over 50 years old and must follow certain criteria.

    In the 80s, both middle-aged, they used to frequent the same bar. Mabel knew that Dorothy went to the bar to meet middle-aged bachelors with pensions so she could find boarders, but of course had no idea she was killing them. Dorothy just kept complaining that they were flaking out on her.

So no one can tell me that a bad childhood is a good excuse for murder and criminal activity.

      Yeah re-using a home is fine, for living purposes. Even if a murder took place there. It doesn't need to be torn down. But yes they are stupid and need a talk with God

    I am astounded that this case doesn't get mentioned more in serial killer conversations.
    She managed to put most serial killers to shame, and the sweet-looking evil granny look is not exactly common
