Daughter of ‘The Happy Face Killer’ opens up about new ‘Killer in the Family’ book
Published at
Keith Hunter Jesperson was a long-haul truck driver who murdered at least eight women across the United States between 1990 and 1995.
He earned his nickname of “The Happy Face Killer” by drawing smiley faces on letters he sent to authorities and news outlets, bragging about his killings and taunting investigators.
He was arrested in 1995 and sentenced to life in prison.
Now his daughter, Melissa Moore, has released a new book titled “Killer in the Family: The Hidden Cost of Loving Someone the World Hates.”
She and her co-author, Michele Matrisciani, join Nate Eaton to talk about the project and what they learned from interviewing family members of notorious killers.
