Riverdale Season 2 Episode 12 Recap: Two Murders Rock the Town
Maybe everyone in Riverdale should just stop sinning.
You would think that all of the drama with the Black Hood would mean everyone in town would stop sinning.
However, that does not appear to be the case and Riverdale Season 2 Episode 12 concluded with two shocking murders.
When the episode got underway, Veronica was preparing for being introduced to the family formally, and Hiram invited Archie to a poker game at Pop’s.
Veronica grew concerned that Archie was getting too close to the family business and tried to warn her boyfriend off of her father.
But Archie was too busy trying to keep the FBI at bay in order to care about all of it. The officer wanted Archie to wear a wire to the big event, but the teenager shut him down.
At the poker game, one of the men tried to make fun of the food, and Archie heard him outside conferring with another gangster about taking Hiram out of the equation right after Veronica’s communion.
Archie managed to tell Hiram in the nick of time, and Hiram put a plan in motion to have him murdered in his hotel room. It worked, but were the Lodges really safe?
The mayor gave the order to have the trailer park struck down that the serpents were living in. Tall Boy tried to blame Jughead and his friends because they were the ones who made the silent protest.
Penny Peabody returned with a vengeance and said she would help out if Jughead was removed from the team and if she got to remove his serpent tattoo.
This put Jughead in a difficult situation: Did he find out who the real villain was that stole the head off the Pickens statue, or did he just allow it to happen?
Thankfully, he and Betty put up flyers for information and someone from a junkyard contacted them. The man confirmed Tall Boy was the one who stole the head.
Jughead confronted him, along with the other serpents who voted to oust him from the group.
Meanwhile, Betty appeared on webcam in an attempt to find the darkness inside of her. She was then shocked to find a man leaving the home and Chic barely dressed.
He told Betty he had a new job at Bijou and was very rude to Betty in the process when she quizzed what was going on.
In the end, a figure appeared at the Cooper residence looking for Chic and the man was murdered a few moments later. Betty returned home to find Alice cleaning up a dead body.
With all of the sinning going on, the Black Hood is definitely going to be making a return trip!
What did you think of the episode?
Sound off below.
Riverdale continues Wednesdays on The CW!

Jacob Stockdale: Wife Swap Star Murders Mother, Brother; Turns Gun on Self
Tragic news out of Ohio today, as TMZ is reporting that 25-year-old Jacob Stockdale has murdered his mother and brother at the family’s home in Stark County.
Stockdale then turned the gun on himself, but reportedly survived the blast.
The renowned fiddler, who appeared in a memorable episode of the ABC reality series Wife Swap, is currently in critical condition.
A police spokesperson says Jacob shot himself in an apparent suicide attempt just as deputies arrived on the scene.
There is no official word on what led to the murders.
Jacob’s 54-year-old mother, Katherine, and his 21-year-old brother James were pronounced dead on the scene.
Jacob was trasported to a nearby hospital via helicopter and is expected to survive.
The Stockdales made their living traveling throughout the Midwest, performing as a family bluegrass band.
When they were at home, however, they pursued a lifestyle of rural isolation and self-sufficiency, homeschooling their children on a secluded farm where television, Internet, and other modern conveniences were banned for religious reasons.
Jacob Stockdale was found at the door of the home, where he had apparently been on the lookout for police.
Stark County Sheriff George T. Maier declined to comment on where the other bodies were found.
Stockdale also did not comment on whether or not the remaining members of the Stockdale family – a father and two sons – were at home at the time of the murders.
The father, Tim Stockdale, issued a statement about his late wife moments ago:
“Kathy has been my beloved wife of 32 years and a wonderful mother to our four sons,” he told local media outlets.
“She loved nothing more than being a mother and grandmother. She had a strong love of learning and was passionate about her Christian faith, natural health, and organic farming.”
Since 2004, the Stockdales had been traveling and performing as a band that, according to their website, “prides itself on sharing bluegrass north of the Mason-Dixon line.”
They performed as recently as Tuesday, and had concerts scheduled throughout the summer.
Friends of the family say Jacob never gave any indication of having any hostility toward his parents or a tendency toward violence.
We will have further updates on this developing story as more information becomes available.

Robert Durst: I Was on Meth When I Confessed to Those Murders!
It’s been a while since we last checked in on Robert Durst, the black-eyed, cross-dressing, possibly murderous millionaire whose bizarre life story helped HBO’s The Jinx kick off TV’s current true crime trend.
The five-part docuseries focused on the 73-year-old real estate heir’s involvement in three apparent murders, all of which remain unsolved.
In the shocking final episode, Durst appears to confess to the crimes, muttering “I killed them all” into what he didn’t seem to realize was a live microphone.
Needless to say, this year has been kind of a mixed bag for the aging scions of New York City real estate empires.
Durst is currently behind bars, awaiting trial for the murder of Susan Berman, a longtime friend who was found dead in her home, not long after corroborating Durst’s alibi in his wife’s murder case and accepting a $ 50,000 payment from him.
The case against him may seem pretty open-and-shut, but Durst has beat long odds twice before, being cleared of all wrongdoing in the deaths of both his wife, Kathleen McCormack Durst, and another friend, Morris Black.
Now, Durst claims to have an explanation for why he would confess to murders he didn’t commit while talking to himself in an empty room:
“I was on meth. The whole time I was on meth,” Durst said in a jailhouse interview that was filed as evidence by his defense team on Friday.
Durst added that his intoxication “should have been obvious” to anyone who watched The Jinx.
Well, it was certainly clear that something was amiss with Durst, but that’s to be expected when you’re chatting with a guy who’s connected to more disappearances than the Bermuda Triangle.
And if Durst’s meth explanation holds up (and really, who lies about being on meth?) it begs the question:
How long has this bender been going on?
Was he on meth when he (allegedly) left a cat’s head on a judge’s doorstep?
How about when he (allegedly) slaughtered a bunch of dogs named Igor as practice for butchering human flesh?
Look, we fully believe that Durst was consuming loads of Heisenberg-quality crystal while he was filming the interviews that proved to be his undoing, but it’s difficult to chalk all of his behavior up to his drug use.
The fact that Durst has demonstrated a Keith Richards-like longevity as a hard drug user is just one of many factors that’s contributed to a very, very strange life.

Father Murders Son, Boasts About It On Facebook
North Carolina police are on the hunt for a man who they believe murdered his son and injured his wife.
Earl Valentine allegedly forced his way into his ex-wife’s house and shot her.
His reign of terror did not end there.
He then shot his 15-year-old son, killing him.
The police have no idea where Valentine is, but they stressed that he could be armed and dangerous.
“We got a call from Valentine’s son, who told dispatchers, ‘My dad just shot me and my mom,’ ” Police Chief Taylor Bartholomew revealed to PEOPLE.
“We got to the home, and they were taken to the hospital with severe injuries.”
“The young man passed away soon after.”
This is such a heinous crime.
If it wasn’t bad enough that he murdered his son, Valentine had the audacity to confess to it via Facebook.
He basically blamed it all on his ex-wife.
However, that does not explain why he opened fire on his son.
“She lied on me, had warrants taken out on me. She drug me all the way down to nothing,” Valentine said on the video, which has been removed from his Facebook page.
Bartholomew also revealed that he had a chat with Valentine, but Valentine revealed his tirade of terror was not over.
“He wanted to know if his ex-wife was dead, because he told me she deserved it,” Bartholomew said.
“He said he was going to kill the rest of her family, and I tried talking him into coming back.”
“But he told me he was gonna throw the phone away and kill himself after murdering her relatives.”
Thus far, Valentine has not attempted to attack any of his ex’s family in Virgina.
Bartholomew also revealed that Earl expressed no remorse for his crimes throughout the phone call.
What the heck?
We hope this sick man is apprehended and brought to justice soon.

O.J. Simpson Might Confess to Those Murders
Here’s a scary thought:
O.J. Simpson may be a free man in 2017.
Indeed, The Juice may be on the loose just a few months from now after he comes up for parole next year following his conviction for armed robbery in 2008.
But will the former professional running back’s lips also be loose?
That’s a question now raised by Ron Shipp.
A friend of Simpson’s (who testified at the Trial of the Century in 1995 that Simpson had told him he had had dreams of killing Nicole Brown Simpson), Shipp tells The New York Daily News that O.J. is in terrible shape at the moment.
“The guy is in total torment today,” Shipp says, adding:
“Someone told me he is 300 pounds and he looks horrible. O.J. has always felt his appearance meant everything and now, deep down inside, he is starting to live with himself.”
It’s unclear whether or not Shipp has actually spoken to Simpson since the alleged killer became incarcerated in Nevada.
But he claims Simpson has hinted that he might one day confess to the murders of Nicole and Ron Goldman in 1994.
“I do,” Shipp said when asked whether he believes this is a possibility.
What makes him say so?
“I got a call about a conspiracy theory about Jason [Simpson’s son from his first marriage] being the killer and I thought, man, come on Juice, just say, ‘my son didn’t do it.’”
It’s true.
Jason Simpson, 24 at the time of the killings, is at the center of a documentary titled “Hard Evidence: O.J. Is Innocent.”
It will air in early 2017 on Investigation Discovery and it points to Simpson’s son as the culprit.
Simpson has been back in the news of late due to FX’s mesmerizing miniseries “People vs. O.J. Simpson.”
ESPN and ABC will also kick off a six-part documentary on June 11 titled “O.J. Simpson: Made in America.” It is receiving rave reviews.
So we now must ask: Did O.J. Simpson kill his wife?
