Robin WarderHOST
Well, that explanation honestly makes a lot of sense to me, as I have a feeling that the assailant may have been a transient who did live in Springfield and was just passing through the area and never returned after committing the crime.
Robin WarderHOST
This theory is giving me flashes to Angel Maturino Resendiz, the notorious railroad killer, a Mexican national who committed at least 15 murders throughout the United States during the 1990s while traveling across the country on freight trains before he was captured, convicted, and executed in 2006.
Robin WarderHOST
Many of Resendiz's crimes were home invasions where the victims were selected completely at random because they happened to live near railroad tracks.
Robin WarderHOST
Much like the Lauterbach hardware attacker, Resendiz would often bludgeon these victims to death with various objects that he just happened to pick up during his travels, such as a pickaxe, sledgehammer, brick, and even a rail car air brake hose coupling.
CatherineNARRATOR
His first work, apart from some things at Siena, not worthy of mention, was in a little chapel near the Porta Fiorentina at Volterra, wherein he executed some figures with such grace that they led to his forming a friendship with a painter of Volterra called Piero, who lived most of his time in Rome, and going off with that master to that city where he was doing some work in the palace for Alexander VI.
CatherineNARRATOR
But after the death of Alexander, Maestro Piero, working no more in that place, Baldassare entered the workshop of the father of Maturino, a painter of no great excellence, who at that time had always plenty of work to do in the form of commonplace commissions.
CatherineNARRATOR
That painter then, placing a panel primed with gesso before Baldassare, but giving him no scrap of drawing or cartoon, told him to make a Madonna upon it.
CatherineNARRATOR
Baldassare took a piece of charcoal, and in a moment, with great mastery, he had drawn what he wished to paint in the picture.

Life of Polodoro da Caravaggio and Maturino In the last age of gold, as the happy age of Leo X might have been called for all noble craftsmen and men of talent, an honored place was held among the most exalted spirits by Polodoro da Caravaggio, a Lombard, who had not become a painter after long study, but had been created and produced as such by nature.
ToddNARRATOR
This master, having come to Rome at the time when the loggia of the papal palace were being built for Leo under the direction of Raphael d'Urbino, carried the pail, or we should rather say the hod, full of lime, for the masons who were doing the work, until he had reached the age of eighteen.
Ken MaherSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
He seemed to be almost ghost-like, the way he could get into houses without being heard, and, you know, ghosts scare people.
Joshua MilesHOST
The killer was a man named Angel Resendiz, who'd been illegally boarding trains across the U.S. border from Mexico for over 20 years.
Joshua MilesHOST
He would go on to kill at least nine people, but the authorities couldn't find him anywhere.
Bobby Knox EckardSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
There's 140,000 miles of track in North America, so how do you get your head around that? How do you find someone that's riding the rail?
Ken MaherSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
This killing and the raping of the women before and after death was just sidekick, just for fun.
Joshua MilesHOST
This killer's story begins on the 1st of August, 1960.
Joshua MilesHOST
Angel Resendiz was born in the state of Puebla in the east of Mexico.
Joshua MilesHOST
Little is known about his childhood, but during his eventual trial, Resendiz spoke to forensic psychologist Ramon Laval about his early years south of the border.
JackHOST
He said, Number 14.
JackHOST
Angel Maturino Resendiz From the freeway killer to the railroad killer, Angel Maturino Resendiz was a drifter riding the rails and would jump in and out of trains to cross the US.
JackHOST
And during this tour of the good old US of A, he managed to kill 20 people, often near railroad tracks.
JackHOST
When he was finally caught, he showed no remorse.

And another proof is that their works are continually being drawn by all the foreign painters.
ToddNARRATOR
Wherefore they conferred greater benefits on the art of painting with the beautiful manner that they displayed and with their marvellous facility than have all the others together who have lived from Cimabue downwards.
ToddNARRATOR
It has been seen continually, therefore, in Rome, and is still seen, that all the draftsmen are inclined more to the works of Polidoro and Maturino than to all the rest of our modern pictures.
ToddNARRATOR
In the Borgo Nuevo they executed a facade in scorrevito, and on the Canto della Pasa another likewise in scorrevito, with a facade of the house of Spinoli, not far from that last mentioned, on the way to the Parone, containing athletic contests according to the custom of the ancients and their sacrifices, and the death of Tarpia.
