Notorious Murderers and Serial Killers

Peter Sutcliffe, aka the Yorkshire Ripper, had many jobs. And he couldn't seem to hold on to many of them. Habitually late, sometimes not showing up at all, he was a boss's nightmare. He worked manual labor jobs and at one time he worked in a cemetery, a Lorrey driver, he worked in tires.

Finally in April 1973 he found a job that he was able to hold onto at Brittania Works of Anderton International, working the night shift.

Starkweather shot some of his victims. Some he stabbed, and he strangled and stabbed Fugate's two year old sister, Betty Jean. It will forever be debated as to Caril Ann Fugate's complicity in these crimes.

On June 25, 1959, Starkweather was executed in Nebraska State Pennitentary. Fugate received a life sentence, and was paroled in June 1976.

She was born with the last name Walker. Her name was Mary Ann Nichols. She was discovered at about 3:40 a.m. on Friday 31 August 1888 in Buck's Row which is now named Durward Street, Whitechapel. She was the daughter of locksmith Edward Walker. She married William Nichols.

The most dangerous men are those that lead others to destruction. Hitler, Stalin and Lenon are some modern versions of dangerous men. But the papacy (Pope) is responsible for more deaths than any other single man on earth. From the throne of the papacy, individual popes have been responsible for hundreds of millions of deaths the world over. This is a historically accurate statement, it is fact.

Derrick and Cragg Hardaway, brothers and fellow Black Diciples Gang members killed Sandifer with two bullets to the head.

H.H Homes of Tennessee. -Nichelle L.

//Micajahan and Wiley Harpe, outlaws and serial killers in the early 1800's in Tennessee and several other states are two of the earliest from that state. H.H. Holmes was from Chicago which is where he committed most of his murders.//

It is almost impossible to know the actual 'first' when it comes to serial killers, since there could have been others before records were kept, or because people of long ago would blame mishaps and misadventures on a variety of things such as weather or the phase of the moon.

But in more modern times Chicago has had several serial killers. There was Andre Crawford, from Chicago's southside. Crawford killed 10 children.

Gregory Klepper, also from the southside, killed 8.

Ralph Harris with 6 kills.

There are probably more or since these types of killers cross state lines they could be convicted of crimes in another state.

Insanity was not Glatman's problem. Glatman was on the prowl in 1950's Southern California, posing as a fashion photographer to meet beautiful girls. He would take out adds in the lonely hearts section of the paper, too. And women he did meet. Some got away, at least 3 did not.

He would take them out in the desert east of L.A., rape them, torture them, and finally strangle them. His last victim somehow got away near the Santa Ana Freeway and managed to flag down a nearby CHP (California Highway Patrol).

Glatman was executed in San Quentin's gas chamber on August 18, 1959. Glatman would now be classified as having APD or anti-social personality disorder, which is not insanity but a personality disorder.

no

The original Zodiac, Denis Rader BTK, Jack The Ripper, Son of Sam David Berkowitz and Ted Kaczynski to name a few.

The Happy Face killer Keith Jesperson left writing and a happy face drawing at or near his crime scenes. Night Stalker Richard Ramirez would leave a pentagram in lipstick. The killer of Eizabeth Short, aka Black Dahlia, sent police a letter using cut-out words from newspapers and magazines.

Antonis Daglis, also known as the 'Athens Ripper' murdered three women and attempted to murder six more.

I could find no serial killers from Simi Valley, CA, but at one time Charles Manson and his 'family' roamed the barren desert land outside Los Angeles.

John Gilbert was responsible for the deaths of 44 people, one being his own mother.

A serial killer is one who commits a number of murders over a long period of time, with the killings separated by often long periods of apparent normalcy. A mass murderer, on the other hand, is an individual who kills several people in a single event. A spree killer kills in a series of closely connected events. There is presumably no "cooling-off" period in most mass murders, which means there is usually not a high level of preconceived planning for escaping but there is some planning, which can be days, weeks, or months in advance. In serial killers is the opposite most likely in fact that the killers seek escape and murdering again in some other time with no calculating timing for the deed.

Being said so; all killers are danger to society. They make families suffer from the lost of a innocent person. They make calamities happen.

Mary Ann Cotton (October 1832 - 24 March 1873) was an English serial killer believed to have murdered up to 20 people, mainly by arsenic poisoning.

As you shall see, serial killers are like not depicted as in the movies. Take for example Jefrey Damher. He was killed brutally with no strugle. Charles Manson was beat up in prison. Serial killers are killers because they choose the prey. In jail they are easy prey for vicious inmates.

He is still at large.

He is serving a life sentence at Broad River Correctional Institute in Columbia, SC.

Possible parole date 2/18/22.

Elizabeth was brought before a formal hearing in 1610. Interestingly, no authority seemed inclined to offer any form of attention to these matters when merely peasant girls had been the subject of Elizabeth's blood-letting for five years previous.

By the final count, 600 girls had vanished; Elizabeth admitted nothing. Dorka and her witches were burned alive, but the Countess, by reason of her noble birth, could not be executed. Katarina was somehow seen as another victim, and was set free.

So, Elizabeth was damned to a death while alive. Sealed into a tiny closet of her castle -- and never let out -- she died four years later.

No relation. Chapman was a fairly common name.

I've never come face to face with a real serial killer, nor would i want to. The difference is, I'm pretty sure, a real serial killer would have to put up more of a fight for one, and the people that were chasing would have a little more common sense I mean think about it, if someone with a knife was chasing you through a house, would you run up the stairs? or down into the basement? NO! you would run out of the house screaming right? Second, unless you run, REALLY slow, a real serial killer, I'm pretty sure would have run after you, not walk at a normal pace and stay like 2 feet behind you at all times...

Gordon Northcott was one.

John Wayne Gacy another.

1910

While he was convicted of several counts of murder and is classified a serial killer, how he was caught is not widely publicized. His last victim before he was convicted was his girlfriend, so it is likely that killing her had something to do with fitting the pieces of the puzzle together to catch him.
