Police photos The Virginia serial killer victims Who are the victims of the Virginia serial killer who is known as the shopping cart killer in Harrisonburg and Fairfax County? Kevin Davis, the chief of the Fairfax County Police Department, said in a news conference that police believe there are at least four victims of Anthony Robinson, the Washington D.C. man they are accusing of being the shopping cart serial killer. Davis said the name derives from the fact police believe Robinson would use a shopping cart to dispose of the bodies of women he met on dating sites and later at hotels in some cases. The victims are Allene Elizabeth “Beth” Redmon of Harrisonburg,54; Tonita Lorice Smith,39, of Charlottesville; and likely Cheyenne Brown,29, of Washington D.C., and another unidentified woman, police said in the news conference. “We are here today to talk about a serial killer,” Davis said pointblank in the news conference. Davis said Robinson has “killed four already, and we suspect he has more victims. He’s a predator as all serial killers are.. He preys on the weak. He preys on the vulnerable…. Our shopping cart killer does unspeakable things to his victims…. After he inflicts trauma on his victims and kills them, he transports the victims to their resting place literally in a shopping cart. There’s video to that effect.” Here’s what you need to know about each victim: obituary Allene Redmon Allene Redmon was also known as Beth. Her Facebook page said she studied at Bridgewater College, went to Turner Ashby High School, and lived in Harrisonburg, Virginia. She was last seen on October 24,2021, and it was considered uncharacteristic for her to disappear, according to WHSV-TV. Redmon’s obituary says “she was born on June 30,1967 in Harrisonburg” and was a lifelong resident of that community. She was survived by two daughters and four grandchildren, among other relatives. In a press release in November 2021, police released Robinson’s name in connection with the murders of Redmon and Smith. That press release said the Harrisonburg Police Department had identified two women found dead in November. They charged Robinson,35, of Washington D.C. with two counts of first-degree murder in addition to two felony counts of concealing, transporting or altering a dead body. DC Police confirm Anthony Robinson, who is charged in Harrisonburg with the murders of 2 women, is a person of interest in a missing persons case in DC.
