Origins: Information goes a long way in the Internet ero, and this one's got the legs to outlast even AOL. There is some truth here, but the warning is outdated.

John Edward Robinson Sr., 56, was arrested on 2 June 2000 and charged with sexual assult on two women in the Kansas City area. Robinson lured the women (as he had others) into participating in sadomasochistic sx by contacting them over the Internet under the name "slavemaster." The two women filed charges after Robinson "brutalized them in a way that went beyond what they intended."

After Robinson's arrest, law enforcement authorities discovered two 5-gallon industrial barrels, each containing a woman's body, on land Robinson owned in Kansas. A few days later, they discovered threww more bodies in barrels kept in a storage space Robinson rented in Missouri. All five women apperared to have been bludgeoned to death.

Robinson was also suspected in the mid-1980's disappearances of three women and an infant whose bodies had not yet been located. One of the bodies Robinson had stored in barrels was later identified as being one of these women, and the missing infant was discovered to have been adopted by Robinson's brother.

In October 2002, John Robinson was convicted of the murder of three women, the two found in the barrels on his land, and the third disappeared mother of the child he placed with his brother. In January 2003, he was sentenced to death for these murders. He has also been charged in the deathsof the three women found in Missouri.

The "slavemaster" is monstrously real, but so far he's well short of the 56 victims claimed for him, and he remains behind bars, not out trolling the Internet for additional victims.

This internet warning has taken on a life of its own, one quite independent of the facts. The small grain of truth (someone using the screen name "Slavemaster" has been arrested for the murders of women he contacted on the Internet) had almost been lost in the sandstorm of claims that he's out there now looking for more victims and that he's killed 56 so far.

As well, pranksters have been pulling off jokes by substituting their acquaintances' screen names in place of "Slavemaster," so now versions are circulating that warn netizens to be on the lookout for someone using the handle "SweetCaliGuy4evr," "ooosparklesooo88," "Monkeyman935," "Free_mumia911," or "ineedatipdrill," all screen names that have nothing to do with the real John Edward Robinson.



now that we know that this isn't a hoax, but it's WAAAAAY outdated, can we put it to rest? can everyone that sees this actually inform other's that it's outdated too? i've passed this information on about 6 times, i've seen this circulate 6 times, each time i see it i inform that it's outdated, can everyone else do that too? please?

Makes sense, Wolfspirit. It would make more sense if the guy was real to lure him in, rather than scare him off.

Ah....the ways of the Net!

Oceans

I apologize for the post everyone.For my intentions certainly was not to spread fear throughout the comm @JSH.The post seemed serious enough when I received & I felt it warranted my attention to inform my friends.Once again I apologize.I've dupmed this jerk hoaxer from my friend's list immediately @ MySpace.This individual is useing the the screen name
"BostonBruinsSpace" over @ MySpace.I was not familiar with the web site SNOPES so I didn't catch that.His entire Web page is fake for he is useing fake credentials stateing he is directly affiliated with Boston Bruins organization.As a matter of fact he's attempting to sell BB wristbands also in the hopes of gaining people's credit card info.I have informed the proper authorities without informing MySpace so he is not aware of it yet.Way to many scammers,hackers,pedophiles,spammers,hoaxers,
etc.on the net nowaday's that's for sure.Sorry folks!

PUNT!

No problem Cybear. No need to apologize.

This has just gone International. Thanks, I'll certainly pass it on.
