On the evening of August 8, Henley confessed to police that for almost three years, he and David Brooks had helped procure teenage boys - some of whom had been their own friends - for Dean Corll.
Henley stated to police that Corll had paid him and Brooks $200 for each victim they were able to lure to his apartment, and informed police that Corll had buried most of his victims in a boatshed in Southwest Houston, and others at Lake Sam Rayburn and High Island Beach.
