A North Carolina man now known as a “serial killer” was sentenced to life in federal prison in South Carolina earlier this week. Daniel Glen Printz killed 80-year-old Edna Suttles in August 2021. He admittedly kidnapped the victim after the two met at a Food Lion in Travelers Rest, S.C. Printz bought some yogurt that day and went back to Suttles’ home with her. He returned to the Food Lion later that day, surveillance footage showed, with the woman markedly subdued but still alive. There, he put Suttles into his car and eventually traveled across state lines – turning the ensuing murder into a federal crime. Before that, however, a different surveillance camera caught the defendant dropping Suttles’ car off at a hotel and wiping down the inside of the vehicle. Edna Suttles missed work the day after she was abducted. Concerned co-workers reported the odd no-call, no-show and the Greenville County Sheriff’s Office began an investigation – quickly ascertaining that Printz was involved in the woman’s disappearance. A search of the defendant’s home turned up Suttles’ keys, bank card, jewelry, and pocketbook – all stashed away in a bee box “on a remote part” of Printz’s property, federal prosecutors said. “Investigators also found a yogurt cup — opened — and a forensic lab analysis determined the interior of the cup contained Lorazepam, Tramadol, and Cyclobenzaprine,” the press release noted. After those discoveries, Printz was arrested and began cooperating with law enforcement. On May 16, 2022, he took investigators to a property in Rutherford County, N.C. where he buried the victim’s body. Over the course of the investigation, authorities learned the defendant was responsible for the disappearances or deaths of three additional women – Nancy Rego, Delores Sellers, and Leigh Goodman. Printz would later confirm his role in those cases in testimony before a court in Greenville, S.C. Though he was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole, U.S. District Judge Donald C. Coggins Jr. also gave Printz an additional five years of supervised release “should he ever be released, with mandatory, standard and special conditions,” a minute entry on the federal docket notes. #serialkillerdocumentary #truecrimestories #DanielGlenPrintz #truecrime #justiceforallvictims SUPPORT MY WORK Buy Me a Coffee ☕ https://www.buymeacoffee.com/deeptruecrime ☕ FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA www.twitter.com/deeptruecrime www.facebook.com/deeptruecrime www.tiktok.com/@deeptruecrime www.instagram.com/deeptruecrime Copyright Disclaimer under section 107 of the Copyright Act of 1976, allowance is made for “fair use” for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, education, and research.
