Serial Killer Autopsy: Joachim Kroll The Ruhr Cannibal: Germany's Hidden Horror On July 3, 1976, police in Duisburg, Germany responded to a routine plumbing complaint, a blocked toilet in an apartment building. What they discovered would expose one of the longest-running serial murder cases in German history. In the kitchen of apartment 6, a pot simmered on the stove containing the hands of a four-year-old girl, prepared with carrots and potatoes like an ordinary stew. The apartment's resident, a quiet toilet attendant named Joachim Kroll, calmly confessed: he had been killing for twenty-one years. Serial Killer Autopsy: Joachim Kroll conducts a comprehensive forensic examination of one of Germany's most prolific yet least-known serial killers. Through twenty-two meticulously researched chapters, this book dissects every aspect of Kroll's life and crimes, from his traumatic childhood in war-torn Germany to his final days in prison, from his first murder in 1955 to his accidental capture in 1976. More than a true crime narrative, this book serves as a comprehensive case study in criminal psychology, investigative methodology, and the societal aftermath of serial murder. It explores profound questions: What creates a serial killer? How does evil hide behind ordinariness? Could his crimes have been prevented? What lessons does his case teach about protecting vulnerable populations? With rigorous research and respectful treatment of victims, Serial Killer Autopsy: Joachim Kroll provides both a chilling examination of one man's descent into murder and cannibalism, and a broader exploration of how serial predators operate, why they evade detection, and what their existence reveals about the darkest aspects of human nature. This is the definitive English-language account of Joachim Kroll, the quiet, unremarkable man who killed for two decades before a mundane plumbing problem exposed Germany's hidden horror. Content Warning: This book contains detailed discussions of murder, sexual violence, child victims, mutilation, and cannibalism. While presented in an analytical rather than gratuitous manner, the content may be disturbing to some readers.
