Fox News: Video shows 'shopping cart killer' suspect leaving hotel room with women's bodies: prosecutors
Anthony Robinson, known as the "shopping cart killer," is on trial in Virginia for the murders of two women he met on dating apps in 2021. Prosecutors allege he killed Beth Redmon and Tonia Smith, with evidence including video footage of him wheeling a body from a hotel room.
