Recorded Evil: The Killer Who Documented Everything

Man Writes Love Letters From Death Row as Audio Tapes Reveal He's Stalking His Next Victims: The serial murders of Fátima Band, Eva Petersen, Carol Spadoni, and Myrna Rogers. A body surfaces in the Riverside desert identified only by a single gold tooth. Days later, a system that had warned of danger six months prior discovers a man had recorded everything: the stalking, the planning, the kills across three states in five days. The contradiction is stark-psychiatric records document severe schizophrenia and active hallucinations; the audio tapes document premeditation and control. In this episode, we trace how Philip Carl Jablonski moved from prison correspondence to freedom to a leather belt inscribed with victim names and dates. We examine the letters he sent detailing how he would strangle Carol Spadoni with her own hair, the notebook listing future targets found in his possession, and the audio recordings that contradicted his defense at trial. The central question remains: how did a documented danger walk free, and what happens when mental illness and premeditation converge in the courtroom? Victim: Fátima Band, Eva Petersen, Carol Spadoni, Myrna Rogers Location: Riverside, California; Burlingame, California; McPherson, Kansas Date: April 1991 Status: Convicted, Death Row - A psychiatrist documented active visual and auditory hallucinations weeks before his release from prison, yet the parole proceeded unchanged. - He inscribed victim names and crime dates in blue pencil on the inner side of a leather belt and wore it at the time of arrest. - The audio tapes recovered contained recordings made before, during, and after the murders, documenting anticipation and planning with verbal coherence. - In letters written from prison to Carol Spadoni, he explicitly described in advance exactly how he planned to murder her.
