Notability

Definitely does not meet criteria for an A7. Currently lead story on CNN.com right [http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/12/17/serial.killer/index.html now]. Jauerback (talk) 01:20, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

  • It has also been hypothesized that Krajcir is behind the unsolved 1979 Bethlehem murder of 18 year-old Holly Branagan, as he is also from the Lehigh Valley, and 1979 falls into the time he was an active murder (and also the crime featured a similar MO).

Allentown

I've restored the :Category:People from Allentown, Pennsylvania category, because although it was removed from the article at some point, it is still referenced. Currently, [https://archive.ph/20070813105326/http://www.lincolncourier.com/story.asp?SID=21954&SEC=8 Reference #4] has Krajcir as a native of Allentown and [http://maamodt.asp.radford.edu/Psyc%20405/serial%20killers/Krajcir,%20Timothy.pdf Reference #6] lists as a place he committed crime(s), was arrested, and spent time in prison there, but says he was born in West Mahanoy Township, PA. There are other sources like [https://www.dailynews.com/2007/12/11/man-admits-killing-nine-since-77-police-say/ this one] that say he's from Allentown. So, I believe that Allentown should be incorporated somehow into the text, but I'm not sure how. Did he grow up there? Or did he just live there at some point (outside of prison)?

:Thanks for sharing those. With those citations, it's certainly worth restoring the category. In fact, it probably belongs in the text. I will try to add it. After I do, make any modifications you think are useful for accuracy and description. Keystone18 (talk) 18:49, 16 June 2022 (UTC)
