Partial Table of Contents Introduction Ted Bundy - Bundy murdered and
sexually assaulted at least 35 young women, first in 1973 in the state of
Washington, where he was a student, then moving to Utah, then Colorado. He
was finally arrested and jailed there but escaped, managing to fly to
Chicago and then on to Florida, where after two and a half years inactive,
he began murdering young women again, on his first night killing four
within one hour. He'd often try to lure people to his Volkswagen Beetle by
asking them to help him carry some books and he would wear a false arm cast
or pretend to need crutches. Well-educated, good-looking, even described by
one of the judges who convicted him as a potentially good lawyer, Bundy was
eventually stopped by a traffic cop who found his documents and car were
stolen and began probing further. Bundy was executed in 1989. David
Berkowitz 'Son of Sam' - Berkowitz's killings happened in New York but in
different districts: killings moved from Yonkers to Queens to the Bronx to
Brooklyn, but were linked in that most were at weekends and late at night
of people returning home. Arrested in August 1977, Berkowitz confessed to
killing six people and wounding seven others in the course of eight
shootings in New York City between 1976 and 1977. Peter Sutcliffe - 'The
Yorkshire Ripper' - attacked women out at night, some of them prostitutes,
but many just making their way home. He stabbed them repeatedly and
mutilated their bodies. Based in Bradford, he murdered across Yorkshire in
Leeds, Sheffield, Halifax and Huddersfield and also as far afield as
Manchester. Green River Killer - Gary Ridgway pleaded guilty to 48 counts
of aggravated murder, although he says he actually killed 90 women or more,
almost all prostitutes. Almost all of the murders occurred in 1983 and 1984
in Washington and Oregon, USA. Joachim Kroll (April 17, 1933 - July 1,
1991) was a German serial killer and cannibal. Known as the Ruhr Cannibal
and the Duisburg Man-Eater. He was convicted of eight murders but confessed
to a total of 13. Randy Steven Kraft - picked up male hitchhikers on
California freeways and neighbouring state Oregon and murdered and sexually
assaulted them. When he was arrested there was the corpse of a strangled
man sitting in the passenger seat of his car. He was convicted of 16
murders in 1989 and is strongly suspected of committing at least 51 others.
He's currently on death row. Andrei Chikatilo - was convicted of the
murders of 52 women and children, mostly around Rostov on Don in the
southern Russian part of the Soviet Union, but also up in Leningrad (St.
Petersburg) and in Ukraine and Uzbekistan, between 1978 and 1990. He would
try to lure children (often from near the railway station) and mentally
handicapped adults or homeless adults or prostitutes to the woods where he
would attack them, only overcoming his impotence in the moment of their
violent death. Donato Bilancia - an Italian serial killer who shot at least
17 people in Liguria around Genoa, Italy from October 1997 to May 1998.
While his murders began through robbery and burglary, he then moved around
by car and began murdering prostitutes and then took the unusual step of
murdering women on trains along the same coast. Michel Fourniret -
confessed, in June 2004 to kidnapping, raping and murdering nine girls in a
span of 14 years during the 1980s and the 1990s. He was also accused of 10
additional murders, nine in France and one in Belgium. Many of his victims
were snatched or lured from the street. He also murdered a couple of people
simply to get hold of their money. Beltway Sniper Attacks - These took
place during three weeks in October 2002 in Maryland and Virginia. Ten
people were killed and three others critically injured in various locations
throughout the Washington Metropolitan Area and along Interstate 95 in
Virginia. Volker Eckert (b. 1959 - July 2, 2007) - a German truck driver
and serial killer who confessed to the murders of six women, five of whom
were prostitutes, in France, Spain and Germany between 1974 and 2006. Index
