As Jesperson spends his days in prison, one of his three children, 43-year-old Melissa Moore, is posting details of her life on TikTok and has gained upwards of 160,000 followers.
In one post in September that got 8 million views, Moore read a letter that Jesperson wrote to her about her wedding in July.
“In the letter, he says I’m fat and my husband is fat,” Moore told viewers, adding that her father also doubted the marriage would last.

The letter included a photo from the wedding, which puzzled Moore, who believes her father may have obtained it from social media. Jesperson asked he wasn’t invited to the ceremony.
Elsewhere in the letter, Jesperson expressed affection for his daughter.
“Remember most of all daughter, I never stopped loving you,” the convicted serial killer wrote, according to the Post.
In other videos, Moore describes how her father’s crimes negatively affected her growing up and to this day.
“It was a huge secret that I wanted to remain that way,” Moore said in one post. “In 1995 after my dad’s arrest, I was deeply embarrassed and ashamed.”
She continues to see a counselor every week.
Moore launched a podcast recently about her life and her father’s murders entitled, “Happy Face Presents: Two-Face.” She also published the book, “Shattered Silence: The Untold Story of a Serial Killer’s Daughter.”
