   When wigger white girls take up with blacks, bad things happen   
   to them.  They get the shit beat out of them and they get dead.   
   But first they get drugged up, fucked up, knocked up, and   
   sometimes cut up.  While they are still alive.   
      
   By the time authorities caught up with Jesse Matthew, huddled in   
   a tent on a Texas beach, the man had fled 1,300 miles from where   
   he was wanted in Virginia as the prime suspect in a college   
   coed’s startling disappearance.   
      
   Police have yet to find Hannah Graham, who vanished Sept. 13 in   
   Charlottesville, and Matthew, caught on surveillance video early   
   that morning with his arm around the teen’s shoulders,   
   reportedly hasn’t cooperated with investigators.   
      
   But the hulking 32-year-old’s arrest on an abduction with the   
   intent to defile charge has allowed authorities to link Matthew   
   to at least three other violent crimes against young women — and   
   has officials around Virginia examining cold cases that contain   
   startling similarities.   
      
   In fact, Matthew’s name has come up in reexaminations of up to   
   10 rape, murder and disappearance cases across Virginia in the   
   last 12 years, including the high profile 2009 murder of 20-year-   
   old Morgan Harrington, also in Charlottesville, a Daily News   
   review of local news reports found.   
      
   “Since this most recent victim disappeared, I said time and   
   again that if they could find out who was responsible there was   
   a good chance the same person would be responsible for Morgan   
   Harring and a number of others,” Clint Van Zandt, a former FBI   
   profiler, told the Associated Press.   
      
   Harrington, a Virginia Tech student from Roanoke, went missing   
   after an October 2009 Metallica concert on the University of   
   Virginia campus. Her remains were found three months later in   
   rural Albemarle County. Forensic evidence has connected Matthew   
   to the crime, law enforcement officials said this week.   
      
   That case remains unsolved, and DNA evidence of Harrington’s   
   killer was matched to an unsolved 2005 rape in Fairfax, a   
   Northern Virginia suburb of Washington, D.C., the FBI said in   
   2012.   
      
   "I thought it seemed very similar to Morgan's situation, the   
   question of her maybe being somewhat impaired and someone just   
   picking her up," Harrington’s father, Dan Harrington, said on   
   the “Today” show on Tuesday. "It really came to me about two   
   weeks ago when I saw the picture (of Matthew) .... at that point   
   I said, 'Oh my gosh, I think it's the same person.'"   
      
   Once a stellar athlete, Matthew used his football prowess to   
   earn a scholarship to Liberty University in Lynchburg, about 70   
   miles southwest of Charlottesville, in 2000. But he was booted   
   from the team and expelled in 2002 after a fellow student   
   accused him of rape, authorities told the AP.   
      
   The dreadlocked suspect had charges dropped after the student   
   “declined to move forward with prosecution,” according to the   
   AP, and Matthew ended up leaving town for Christopher Newport   
   University (CNU) in Newport News, a coastal community southeast   
   of Richmond. There, Matthew attended school from January 2003   
   until withdrawing on October 15 of that year, WAVY-TV reported.   
      
   During that time, two local women went missing.   
      
   Autumn Wind Day, 24, vanished from a Food Lion two miles from   
   the CNU campus on July 24, 2003. And on Sept. 7, 31-year-old   
   Sophie May Rivera disappeared after leaving her home some seven   
   miles from the university campus, according to the TV station.   
      
   Neither woman has been seen since. Police plan to revisit the   
   missing cases involving both women.   
      
   “While there are no indications that Jesse Matthew is connected   
   to these two cases, both will be reviewed,” Newport News police   
   spokesman Lou Thurston told WAVY.   
      
   Matthew, who spent a month on the CNU football team, left the   
   squad five days after Rivera vanished. And he left school just a   
   month later, according to CNU officials.   
      
   “Students don’t usually leave in the second month of the   
   semester or leave the football team within a month,” the   
   university told the TV station in a statement this week.   
   “However, federal student record privacy laws (FERPA) limit the   
   information we can provide. The university is fully cooperating   
   with law-enforcement agencies.”   
      
   It’s unclear where Matthew, a Charlottesville native, spent the   
   next several years.   
      
   But officials in Campbell County, west of Richmond, are taking a   
   look at a possible link between Matthew and the murder of   
   Lynchburg woman Cassandra Morton, 23, whose decomposing body was   
   found in November 2009 on Candlers Mountain, The News & Advance   
   of Lynchburg reported.   
      
   The murder remains unsolved.   
      
   "We had a conversation about that early on when we found out   
   that he went to Liberty [University] and was familiar with the   
   area," Campbell County Sheriff Steve Hutcherson told the   
   newspaper.   
      
   Around that same time, Harrington vanished from Charlottesville.   
   And there are at least three other missing young women from the   
   Charlottesville area from approximately the same time period.   
   Samantha Ann Clarke, 19, disappeared from Orange County, just   
   north of Charlottesville, in September 2010, while DaShad   
   Laquinn Smith, 19, disappeared from Charlottesville in November   
   2012, WUSA-TV reported.   
      
   Alexis Murphy, 17, has been missing from Lynchburg in August of   
   2013, WUSA-TV reported, but another man, Randy Taylor was   
   convicted of the girl’s murder this May, despite the fact that   
   her body has never been found.   
      
   Prosecutors said after Matthew’s arrest that there is “certainly   
   no evidence at this time” that Matthew was involved.   
      
   “If such evidence is discovered, Nelson County authorities along   
   with the FBI and the Virginia State Police will act   
   immediately," Anthony Martin, the Commonwealth’s Attorney for   
   Nelson County, said in a statement.   
      
   Matthew was working as a taxi driver in Charlottesville by 2010,   
   WVIR-TV reported. And in August 2012, he was hired to work for   
   the U. Va. Medical Center. He’s since been fired from that job.   
      
   Matthew has only been charged in the Graham case.   
      
   But Harrington’s mother, who started a non-profit called “Save   
   the Next Girl” after her daughter’s death, thinks there might be   
   something to the theory that Matthew could be a serial killer or   
   serial rapist.   
      
   "If you look at the map and place the many missing or murdered   
   young women in our area, it is a startling graphic," Gil   
   Harrington told CNN last week. "I mean it’s a scatter pattern of   
   loss. And either it’s a cluster phenomena or to me — to my eyes   
   it’s not unlikely that some of it, at least, is attributable to   
   one top-tier predator."   
      
   Matthew is scheduled for a bond hearing on Thursday.
