Stalking Case Leads Police to Skeletal Remains, Serial Killer Memorabilia in Fond Du Lac Home
- On August 14, authorities executing a search warrant at a Fond du Lac home discovered human skeletal remains, serial killer memorabilia, and disturbing writings linked to 47-year-old Benjamin Larson, who faces felony stalking charges.
- Prosecutors allege Larson engaged in a 13-year pattern of unwanted contact after a brief 2013 relationship, with his behavior escalating in 2025 through letters, emails, and false licensing board complaints filed in Wisconsin and two other states.
- Investigators recovered items linked to the victim, including a clay head resembling her, alongside memorabilia connected to serial killer Ed Gein; the basement contained five human skulls and two large bones arranged in a cross shape.
- Following his arrest, Larson posted a $15,000 cash bond and was released from custody; he faces one count of felony stalking carrying up to three years and six months in prison and a $10,000 fine.
- Sheriff Ryan Waldschmidt said the investigation "will likely span months" due to forensic testing needs; while initial examinations suggest many remains are ancient Native American, further testing is required to determine if any are modern.
