SERIAL KILLER HIT LIST - PART 1

The Crime Archives catalogues its serial killers by their = number of=20 proven hits. Some killers are suspected of much higher body = counts. Others=20 bragged about crimes they never committed. Check in the morgue for = the latest=20 entries. Because of its ever-increasing size, the Serial Killer = Hit List=20 has been broken into four sections according to number of hits.=20

The New Updated Edition of Killers on the Loose = is Now=20 Available in the USA!=20

Be the first one in your block to own the updated, second = edition, "Killers=20 on the Loose: Unsolved Cases of Serial Murder" Published = by=20 Virgin Books, KOTL will be available in the US starting = February 2,=20 2002. You can buy it at Amazon.Com or Barnes & Noble, or in the True Crime = section=20 of your favorite bookstore. =

Serial killers tend to be white, heterosexual males in their = twenties=20 and thirties who are sexually dysfunctional and have low = self-esteem.=20 Their methodical rampages are almost always sexual in nature. = Their=20 killings are usually part of an elaborate fantasy that builds to a = climax=20 at the moment of their murderous outburst. Serial killers = generally murder=20 strangers with cooling off periods between each crime. Many enjoy=20 cannibalism, necrophilia and keep trophy-like body parts as = mementos of=20 their work. Serial killers are sadistic in nature. Some return to = crime=20 scenes or grave sites of their victims to fantasize about their = deeds.=20 Many like to insert themselves in the investigation of their = crimes and=20 some enjoy taunting authorities with letters or carefully placed = pieces of=20 evidence.

Serial killers tend to prey on women and children of their same = race.=20 Prostitutes, drifters and hitchhikers are their victims of choice. = Some=20 homosexual killers enjoy hunting young boys and gay men. Female = serial=20 killers tend to be "black widows" who kill a succession of = husbands,=20 lovers, or other family members. They can also be nurses or other = medical=20 professionals who become self-appointed "angels of death" = murdering=20 babies, elderly, or the desperately ill in a misguided effort to = relieve=20 their suffering. Most serial killers grew up in violent = households. As=20 youngsters they enjoyed torturing animals, setting fires and were = chronic=20 bed-wetters. As adults, many serial have some type of brain damage = and are=20 addicted to alcohol and/or drugs.

Pedro Alonso = Lopez (300+)=20 Meet the deadliest serial killer of the Archives. Pedro was = known=20 as the "Monster of the Andes" after the impressive numbers of hits = he=20 tallied in his three-nation killing spree. A native of Colombia, = his=20 prostitute mother kicked him out of their home at age eight for = fondling=20 his younger sister. Adding insult to injury he was then picked up = by a=20 pedophile and sodomized against his will. By the time he was = eighteen he=20 was gang banged in prison and retaliated by killing three of his=20 assailants.

Upon his release he started killing young girls with glee and = impunity.=20 By 1978 he claimed to have bagged more than 100 girls in Peru. = After a=20 brush with an angry village mob he moved his activities to = Colombia and=20 Ecuador where his blood lust averaged about three kills a week. He = found=20 killing Ecuadorian girls quite enjoyable because they were "more = gentle=20 and trusting, more innocent." Authorities attributed the rash of=20 disappearing girls to active slavery or prostitution rings in the = area.=20

In 1980 a flash flood uncovered the first of his victims. When = he was=20 arrested he told his interrogators the frightening tale of his = reign of=20 death. At first authorities were skeptical, but all doubts = disappeared=20 when he quickly produced more than fifty graves. It is widely = believed=20 that three hundred hits is a low estimate for this most prolific = serial=20 killer.

Henry Lee=20 Lucas & Ottis Toole (6-200+) The Tag Team from Hell: = the Sadist=20 King and the Generalissimo of Pain. The numbers speak for = themselves. As a=20 kid, Henry was the poster child of the "Future Serial Killer = Club." His=20 alcoholic father, called "No Legs" because of a chance encounter = with a=20 freight train, killed himself after repeatedly being humiliated by = his=20 abusive wife. When little Henry sliced an eye while playing with a = knife=20 with his brother, his bootlegging, prostitute mother -- Viola = Lucas --=20 left his gashed orb unattended for days until it eventually = withered and=20 had to be removed by a doctor. Once mom beat him so severely with = a piece=20 of wood that he lay in a semi-conscious state for three days = before=20 Viola's boyfriend decide to take him to a local hospital. Another = time,=20 she cruelly decided to send Hank to school in a dress and with his = hair=20 curled.

Years later, in a drunken binge, Henry stuck a knife in his = mother's=20 back and proceeded to rape her dead corpse. Later, like on many = other=20 occasions, he recanted his act of inscestuous necrophilia. He got = 40 years=20 for matricide, but was out after 10. Free again, Henry launched = his=20 stellar career as the nation's most notorious random killer.

In 1976, after a chance meeting in a Jacksonville soup kitchen, = he=20 joined up with a part-time transvestite and deeply psychotic = retard, Ottis=20 Toole, to carry out numerous homicidal escapades. Ottis had a = taste=20 for human flesh and had many of his victims for dinner. Henry, = however,=20 was not a cannibal because, he said, he disliked the taste of = Ottis'=20 barbecue sauce. He was more of a sadist and a necrophile, = preferring sex=20 with mutilated bodies and live or dead animals.

The consummate killer couple, they enjoyed picking up = hitchhikers to=20 satisfy their lust for blood. Sometimes, when they didn't want to = go=20 through the hassle of killing and disposing of their prey, they = would just=20 run over the occasional hitchhiker and continue on their merry = way. These=20 lethal lovebirds parted ways after Ottis' niece, Becky Powell, = shacked up=20 with Henry at the age of seven. The unfortunate lassie was found = at the=20 age of fifteen dismembered, stuffed in pillowcases and strewn over = a=20 field.

After his arrest, Lucas toured the country as a star killer = uncovering=20 evidence of his handiwork for local police departments. In 1985, = Dallas=20 Times-Herald journalist, Hugh Aynesworth, claimed their reign of = terror=20 was a hoax and that overzealous detectives fed the would-be = killers many=20 details of their crimes. Henry and Ottis confessed to more than = 600=20 killings in 26 states. Henry even claimed to have carried the = poison to=20 Guyana as a favor to his good friend Jim = Jones.

Many investigators still believe that Lucas -- a fifth-grade = dropout --=20 was responsible for just a couple of murders and the real = criminals were=20 the officers who fed him information on unresolved cases and = coerced=20 confessions. Serial killer expert Robert Ressler believes Henry = might be=20 responsible for as little as five killings. The truth probably = lies=20 somewhere in the middle.

To many investigators' surprise one of Henry's earliest alleged = victims, a Virginia schoolteacher, was found alive and kicking as = he was=20 charged with her murder. Not one to hold back his most outrageous = boasts,=20 he claimed to have committed murders in Spain and Japan eventhough = there's=20 no evidence suggesting he ever left the United States.

Some of the crimes, he said, were committed under orders from = the=20 Satanic cult, the "Hand of Death." After confessing to over 300 = hits, Hank=20 recanted it all only to confess again when he became born-agai. As = he=20 awaits execution on Death Row in Texas, Hank still mentions bits = and=20 pieces of evidence linking him to numerous killings in 18 states. =

Meanwhile back in Florida, Ottis was diagnosed as a paranoid=20 schizophrenic and his death sentence was commuted to six = consecutive life=20 termss. In prison Ottis confessed and later recanted killing = 6-year-old=20 Adam Walsh, whose 1981 disappearance outside a Hollywood, Florida, = mall=20 set off a nationwide manhunt and launched the TV career of his = father,=20 John Walsh, as the creator and host of the Fox television series=20 "America's Most Wanted."

On September 15, 1996, Ottis died in a prison hospital of liver = failure. Walsh, who repeatedly criticized the police handling of = his son's=20 case, questioned why investigators did not try to interview Toole = on his=20 deathbed or try for another confession. Speaking from prison after = Ottis'=20 death, Lucas said Toole killed Adam and later showed him the = remains of=20 the boy in a shallow grave. "I got sick about it. I said let's get = the=20 hell out of here."

On March 31, 1998, Texas State District Judge John Carter set = June 30=20 as the execution date for Henry Lee. Although his many = confessions, he was=20 sentenced to death for the 1979 murder of a female hitchhiker = known as=20 "Orange Socks" for the only item of clothing left on her body. = During many=20 of his detractions Lucas claimed that he was working as a roofer = in=20 Florida when the hitchhiker was killed. No execution date had been = set for=20 Lucas until now. He was granted a stay in September 1995 so his = claims of=20 false confessions could be investigated. The stay was lifted a = year later.=20

On June 27, 1998 Governor George W. Bush spared Henry's life = because of=20 overwhelming evidence proving that Henry was not in Texas when = "Orange=20 Socks" was murdered. Although Lucas confessed to killing her, work = records=20 and a cashed paycheck indicated he was in Florida at the time of = the=20 murder. Bush issued the reprieve on the recommendation of the = state parole=20 board. "I can only thank them for believing the truth and having = guts=20 enough for standing up for what's right," Lucas said from death = row.

"Henry Lee Lucas is unquestionably guilty of other despicable = crimes=20 which he has been sentenced to spend the rest of his life in = prison," said=20 Bush, in Brownsville for a conference of U.S.-Mexico border state=20 governors. "However, I believe there is enough doubt about this = particular=20 crime that the state of Texas should not impose its ultimate = penalty by=20 executing him."

H.H. Holmes = (200+)=20 Born Herman Webster Mudgett, Dr. Holmes started his = criminal career=20 as a medical student by stealing corpses from the University of = Michigan.=20 He used the corpses to collect insurance money from policies taken = out=20 under fictitious names.

When he moved to Chicago he started a drugstore empire from = which he=20 made a fortune. He built a hundred-room mansion complete with gas=20 chambers, trap doors, acid vats, lime pits, fake walls and secret=20 entrances. During the 1893 World's Fair he rented rooms to = visitors. He=20 then killed most of his lodgers and continued his insurance fraud = scheme.=20 He also lured women to his "torture castle" with the promise of = marriage.=20 Instead, he would force them to sign over their savings, then = throw them=20 down an elevator shaft and gas them to death. In the basement of = the=20 castle he dismembered and skinned his prey and experimented with = their=20 corpses.

When police grew suspicious about H.H's activities, he torched = the=20 castle and fled. In the burnt hulk of the building, authorities = found the=20 remains of over two hundred people. H.H. was caught when one of = his=20 insurance schemes was unravelled by Pinkerton detectives. He was = hanged on=20 May 7, 1896, after one the first sensational crime trial in = America. Not=20 only was Herman the first American serial killer he was also, = according to=20 author Scheckter, the first "celebrity psycho." Although he never = had the=20 historical presence of his contemporary Jack the=20 Ripper, he did leave behind an impressive trail of blood = unequaled for=20 almost eighty years.

Gilles de = Rais=20 (140+) A Fifteenth Century French war hero, Gilles was also = one of=20 medieval Europe's worst killers. An ally of Joan of Arc during the = Hundred=20 Year War, de Rais was instrumental in driving the English out of = France.=20 In his later years, after he was named Marshal of France by King = Charles=20 VII, he settled in his estates in Brittany, where he turned his = heroic=20 impulses towards torture and murder. He enjoyed killing mostly = young boys,=20 whom he would sodomize before and after decapitation. When he = wasn't=20 feeling up to the task he enjoyed watching his servants butcher = the boys=20 and masturbated over their entrails.

Because he was a baron, no one took note of the disappearing = children=20 around his castle. A great patron of the arts, Gilles also enjoyed = practicing black magic and alchemy. His reign of terror came to an = end=20 when the Duke of Brittany dug up the mutilated remains of 50 boys = in his=20 castle. He confessed to 140 killings but it is believed that the = body=20 count could have been as high as 300. On October 26, 1440, Gilles = was=20 simultaneously burned and hanged. His two servant accomplices were = simply=20 burned alive.

Luis = Alfredo Gavarito=20 (140) On October 30, 1999, Colombian announced that Luis = Alfredo=20 Gavarito confessed to raping, torturing and killing 140 children = in a=20 five-year killing spree. "Luis Alfredo Garavito has admitted the = murder of=20 about 140 children of which we have so far found 114 skeleton," = chief=20 prosecutor Alfonso Gomez told a news conference.

Drawing a battered notebook from his pocket, Garavito showed = the=20 interrogating judge and psychologist his tally of the killings he = claimed=20 during a four-hour confession. Across the pages were 140 lines, = each=20 symbolizing one murdered youngster.

The mutilated corpses of the mostly male victims aged between = eight and=20 16 years old have been discovered near more than 60 towns in at = least 11=20 of Colombia's 32 provinces. "The bodies were beheaded and bore = signs of=20 having been tied up and mutilated," Gomez said.

The nationwide murder investigation was triggered after 36 = decomposing=20 corpses were found near the city of Pereira in 1997. At the time=20 investigators said the children may have been murdered in a black = magic=20 ritual. Authorities also considered social cleansing, organ = trafficking=20 and pedophilic mayhem as reasons behind the butchery. After an = 18-month=20 investigation, Garavito was arrested in the eastern plains city of = Villavicencio in Aprilon charges of attempting to rape a child. =

Born in Colombia's western coffee-growing region, Gavarito was = the=20 oldest of seven children. He was repeatedly beaten by his father = and raped=20 by two male neighbors. Garavito was also a heavy alcoholic, and = was=20 treated for depression and suicidal tendencies. He said he = committed most=20 of the murders after heavy drinking.

Garavito had just five years of schooling and left home at 16, = working=20 first as a store clerk, then as a street vendor who sold religious = icons=20 and prayer cards. Prosecutors said Garavito found most of his = victims on=20 the streets, gaining their confidence by giving them soft drinks = and=20 money.

Garavito apparently committed his first murder in 1992. = Authorities=20 were unaware of the alleged serial killer until 25 bodies were = found in=20 the western city of Pereira. The victims -- mostly boys between = eight and=20 16 -- were found with their throats slit. Some showed signs of = torture and=20 rape.

The victims were mostly poor. Many of them were children of = street=20 vendors or homeless kids. Garavito -- who was known as "Goofy", = "El Loco"=20 and "The Priest" -- passed himself off as "a street vendor, monk,=20 indigent, disabled person or a representative of fictitious = foundations=20 for the elderly and children's education, in that way gaining = entrance to=20 schools as a speaker," Gomez said.

Garavito moved around the country frequently after the killings = began=20 in 1994, and also spent time in Ecuador, where investigations are = trying=20 to determine whether he might be linked to child slayings there = too.

The most killings took place in the western state of Risaralda, = and its=20 capital, Pereira. Forty-one bodies have been found in Pereira and = another=20 27 have turned up in neighboring Valle de Cauca.

Previously authorities charged one Pedro Pablo Ramirez with 29 = of the=20 slayings. It is unclear whether Ramirez and Garavito are the same = person,=20 or if Ramirez was released or is still in custody.

On December 31, 1998, Colombian police arrested Ramirez in = connection=20 with the murder of 29 children. The childrens' bodies - many = missing body=20 parts and showing signs of torture - were found in two separate = mass=20 graves. The first grave, found on 12 November, was discovered when = a boy=20 walking through an overgrown lot saw a skull in the bushes. = Authorities=20 who dug up the lot, found several incomplete skeletons and 13 = skulls. The=20 second discovery was made less than a week later in a river-bed = below a=20 city highway. Investigators have linked Ramirez -- who had = previously been=20 in prison for sex crimes -- to at least three killings in Pereira = and=20 possibly three others in the nearby town of Armenia.

Dr. Jack = Kevorkian=20 (130) On March 26, 1999, Suicide advocate Dr. Jack = Kevorkian was=20 convicted of second-degree murder for giving an ailing man a = lethal=20 injection and putting it all on a videotape that aired on "60 = Minutes." It=20 was the first time in five trials that he was found guilty. The = jury took=20 a day and a half to clear him of first-degree murder, which would = have=20 meant a mandatory sentence of life in prison without parole.

But they rejected his claim in his closing argument that some = acts "by=20 sheer common sense are not crimes." Kevorkian, 70, still could get = a life=20 term at sentencing April 14 for the death of 52-year-old Thomas = Youk, who=20 suffered from Lou Gehrig's disease. Prosecutor David Gorcyca said = he=20 believes sentencing guidelines call for a minimum of 10 to 25 = years on the=20 murder charge. Kevorkian also was convicted of delivery of a = controlled=20 substance, which carries up to seven years.

On November 24, CBS aired a tape of the Youk assisted suicide = in the=20 program "60 Minutes." The show finished No. 3 in the weekly = Nielsen=20 ratings. Prosecutor David Gorcyca filed charges after receiving an = unedited tape from CBS. Following the televised suicide, Dr. Death = arrived=20 smiling at the police station after being charged with = first-degree=20 murder. Kevorkian was released on $750,000 personal bond following = his=20 arraignment. "A review of the tapes involving Mr. Youk and = Kevorkian=20 present sufficient facts and probable cause to support charges of = assisted=20 suicide," Gorcyca said. "Not withstanding Mr. Youk's consent, = consent is=20 not a viable defense in taking the life of another, even under the = most=20 controlled environment."

Kevorkian, 70, has acknowledged a role in some 130 assisted = suicides=20 since 1990, making him the most active known serial killers in the = nation.=20 Hisis previous trials, all on assisted suicide charges, resulted = in three=20 acquittals and one mistrial. This was the first time he stood = trial for=20 murder. In past cases, Kevorkian has said his clients used his = homemade=20 devices to start the flow of carbon monoxide or intravenous = chemicals that=20 caused their death. In Youk's case, however, Kevorkian = administered the=20 injection.

In closing arguments, prosecutor John Skrzynski likened = Kevorkian to "a=20 medical hitman in the night" and asked jurors not to let him make = a=20 political statement with Youk's death. Kevorkian said he was no = more=20 culpable than an executioner because he was merely doing his duty = as a=20 physician to relieve Youk's suffering. He compared himself to = civil rights=20 pioneers Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King Jr. and invited the = jury to=20 disregard the law. "Words on paper do not necessarily create = crimes," he=20 said. "There are certain acts that by sheer common sense are not = crimes.=20 This may be one of them. That's for you to decide."

Attorney David Gorosh, who had been serving as Kevorkian's = legal=20 adviser, said he will appeal. He also said he will ask the judge = to use=20 her discretion at sentencing and give Kevorkian no jail time. "Dr. = Kevorkian is certainly no murderer," Gorosh said. "We believe it's = certainly unjust to equate an act of compassion to an act of = murder."=20 Kevorkian won the right to represent himself during the trial = despite the=20 misgivings of the judge, who asked him: "Do you understand you = could spend=20 the rest of your life in prison?" He responded: "There's not much = of it=20 left."

On April 13 Judge Jessica Cooper sentenced Dr. Death to 10 to = 25 years=20 in prison for the videotaped death of a Lou Gehrig's disease = patient. He=20 also was sentenced to three to seven years for delivery of a = controlled=20 substance. The fiesty judge lectured the 70-year-old doctor: "This = trial=20 was not about the political or moral correctness of euthanasia. It = was=20 about lawlessness. It was about disrespect for a society that = exists=20 because of the strength of the legal system. No one, sir, is above = the=20 law. No one. You had the audacity to go on national television, = show the=20 world what you did and dare the legal system to stop you. Well, = sir,=20 consider yourself stopped."

Im sure you get alot of reaction to your listing Jack Kevorkian = as a=20 'serial killer' so my input is probably meaningless to you. = Regardless of=20 that, I have to say I seldom read such a grossly misrepresentative = and=20 incorrect statement. Aside from the observation that he doesn't = even meet=20 the criteria for being a 'serial killer' (ie, the pathology and = pychosis),=20 Dr. Kevorkian is no more a serial killer than the doctor who = allows=20 terminally ill cancer patients to self-administer 'alittle too = much=20 morphine' or the pychologist who provides death counselling for = the=20 terminally ill on how to prepare for death. There are many in the = medical=20 field who recognize the need to provide a way for the suffering to = escape=20 from the prison of their tortured body. Having watched my own = father die a=20 horrible, slow and ultimately inevitable death I can appreciate = the=20 extremity of human suffering that modern medicine can cause people = to=20 experience. I think euthanasia is a valid, appropriate and humane = way of=20 meeting the needs and wishes of people who can no longer bare the = endless=20 pain and debilitation of human disease. Calling Dr. Kevorkian a = serial=20 killer is insulting to the memories of the people he helped.

And dont you find it interesting that not a SINGLE family = member of=20 those that he 'murdered' called for his execution or imprisonment = while he=20 was standing trial? Please reconsider his inclusion in your list,=20 regardless of your personal convictions (which I acknowledge and = respect).=20 Dr. Kevorkian should be regarded as a man willing to pay the = ultimate=20 price for his convictions (and is percieved as a hero by many), = not=20 someone that should to be lumped in with a bunch of sadistic = murderous=20 perverts.

Regards,

Pete Franke

Why do you say Dr. Kevorkian is not a serial Killer? This = animal preys=20 on those who can't or don't want to save themselves. He's found = perfect=20 victims. The Good Doctor is not trying to help people, he's not a = saint!=20 This pig has a genuine taste for blood, and why they allow him to = get away=20 with it is beyond me! I'm for euthinasia but in a hospital, not in = the=20 back of a death wagon or at the hands of a man who clearly enjoys = what=20 he's doing.

how is it that Dr. Jack Kevorkian is considered a serial = killer? If he=20 was convicted of only one direct murder, how do the others apply? = Is he=20 considered an angel of mercy? I assume that assisted suicide is = not as=20 legal in Michigan as it is here in Oregon (John Ashcroft pending) = but I=20 don't understand how Dr. Jack could be a serial killer as opposed = to a=20 serial suicide assistant?

Hu Wanlin = (100+) -=20 On January 18, 1999, the Chinese state-run Xinhua News Agency = reported a=20 self-styled "doctor" who practiced the traditional medical art of = qigong=20 -- a deep-breathing technique dating back 5,000 years -- was = arrested for=20 killing between 100 to 190 patients. Hu Wanlin, 50, from Shangqiu = in=20 central Henan province, had been practicing qigong in the area = since June=20 1998. He previously served two prison terms for operating illegal = medical=20 clinics in various parts of China.

Qigong masters are said to have the ability to concentrate "qi" = or=20 energy in certain parts of their bodies and to use it to help = diagnose and=20 cure a wide range of ailments. Authorities allege Hu's home-brewed = Chinese=20 herbal medicines included lethal amounts of sodium sulphate. Hu = came to=20 prominence in 1997 with his claims of a 90 percent cure rate in = treatment=20 of cancer, hepatitis and high blood pressure. He was even the = subject of a=20 book, "Qigong Master," which supported his claim to possess = mystical=20 healing powers.

When released in 1997 after spending 14 years in prison on = murder=20 charges, Hu set up the Hu Wanling Hospital in Taiyuan, Shaanxi = province,=20 where authorities allege his treatment caused the death of 20 = patients. In=20 November 1997, Hu established the Zhongnanshan Hospital, also in = Shaanxi,=20 where 146 people died under his treatment, the report said. After = police=20 closed the hospital, Hu fled to Shangqiu, where the local health = bureau=20 formally invited him to set up the Weida Hospital. Thirty patients = died=20 there under his care.

Pee Wee = Gaskins=20 (100+) When he was a young boy Pee Wee watched a cobra eat = a live=20 rat at a carnival. According to a later confession he penned, that = was the=20 first time he felt attracted to violence. Dubbed America's meanest = killer,=20 Pee Wee was always in trouble with the law. He spent most of his = youth in=20 and out of reform school and later prison. Because of his = pint-size, Pee=20 Wee had to be the "girlfriend" of older, more powerful prisoners. = He soon=20 put an end to it by killing a highly regarded inmate while the man = was=20 taking a shit, making him a jailhouse legend for the rest of his = stay.

In 1969, after being released from prison, Pee Wee got back to = killing=20 at an alarming rate. He made a distinction between his "coastal = kills," --=20 people he found while driving around the roadways of the American = South=20 that he killed for pleasure -- and his "serious murders," -- = people he=20 knew that he killed for specific reasons. Aside from killing, Pee = Wee had=20 a thriving business fencing stolen cars. He operated his fencing = business=20 out of several properties around the Carolinas. There he also = slaughtered=20 many of his prey. His other favorite hunting grounds were the = coastal=20 highways, where every six weeks, he went hunting to quell his = feelings of=20 "bother-someness."

In the early '80s, Pee Wee was named the "Meanest Man in = America" for=20 killing another inmate while in Maximum Security. For his fearless = homicidal stunt, Pee Wee was given the death penalty. He was fried = on=20 September 6, 1991. His total hits might well have been over two = hundred,=20 but law enforcement sources found it impossible to verify all his = claims.=20 In the excellent post-mortem auto-biography, "Final Truth," Pee = Wee waxed=20 poetic about how he had "a special mind" that gave him "permission = to=20 kill."

Javed Iqbal = (100) On=20 March 16, 2000, a Pakistani court in Lahore sentenced serial child = killer=20 Javed Iqbal to death, saying he would be strangled in front of the = parents=20 whose children he was convicted of murdering. Judge Allah Baksh = Ranja=20 added that Iqbal's body "will then be cut into a 100 pieces and = put in=20 acid the same way you killed the children." His three accomplices, = including a 13-year-old boy identified only as Sabir, also were = found=20 guilty. Sabir was sentenced to 42 years in jail; the other two = accomplices=20 were sentenced to death.

Iqbal, 42, initially confessed to the killings in a letter last = year to=20 police. He said he strangled the children, dismembered their = bodies and=20 placed them in a vat of acid. He later recanted his confession. = Police=20 found the remains of two bodies in a blue vat in his home after = his=20 arrest. Police also found pictures of 100 children whom Iqbal in = his=20 letter confessed to having killed. They also found clothes = belonging to=20 the young victims. Previously, the worst killing in akistani = history was=20 in mid-1980s when dozens of people were killed in the Punjab, = Sindh and=20 North West Frontier provinces in a series of mysterious night = attacks that=20 police blamed on a so-called "hammer group." The attackers broke = into=20 houses and bludgeoned victims to death with hammers. They were = never=20 found.

Parents of missing children were contacted to sort through = clothes and=20 pictures to try to identify their missing children. Most were = identified,=20 but police did not recover any bodies. The search for Iqbal was = one of the=20 largest manhunts in Pakistan. On December 30 Iqbal walked into the = Lahore=20 office of a leading newspaper and turned himself in. He refused to = go=20 directly to the police, saying he feared for his life. During his = trial,=20 the child killer testified that he was only a witness to the = killings. He=20 said his earlier confession was sent as a message to the parents = of the=20 missing children, whom he accused of neglect.

Iqbal wrote in his letter to the police that he killed the = children,=20 who were mostly beggars, in retaliation for the abuse they = inflicted on=20 him following a previous arrest when he was accused of sodomy. He = claimed=20 he had been wrongly picked up and badly beaten while in police = custody.=20 Curiously, and I guess generously, he also claimed to have killed = the=20 street children to highlight their plight. During his six-month = killing=20 spree, Iqbal kept a detailed account of the murders, listing his = victims'=20 names, ages and the dates of their deaths. He also kept their = shoes and=20 bundles of their clothing. Healso recorded the exact cost of = disposing of=20 each kid. "In terms of expense, including the acid, it coast me = 120 rupees=20 ($2.40) to erase each victim," he wrote.

A week after his sentencing, a Pakistan's top religious said = the=20 planned execution of serial killer Javed Iqbal went against = Islamic=20 tenets. Though the sentence of the killer called for his body to = be cut=20 into 100 pieces and dissolved in a vat of acid, the Council of = Islamic=20 Ideology said that would desecrate the killer's body, which would = go=20 against the Islamic teaching of respect for the body of the = deceased.

On October 25, 2001, the Iqbal and Sabir were found dead in = their cell=20 from apparent poinsoning. Their apparent suicides -- as declared = by prison=20 authorities -- came just four days after the country's highest = Islamic=20 Court had agreed to hear their appeal against the death sentence. = Iqbal=20 had voiced fears after his conviction that police would kill him. = His=20 lawyer said Iqbal was victim of a police conspiracy. Jail = officials said=20 Iqbal had twice made abortive suicide attempts in the past.

Delfina = & Maria de=20 Jesus Gonzales (91+) These two deadly sisters ran the = bordello from=20 hell in Guanajuato, Mexico. They recruited their prostitutes = through help=20 wanted ads and killed them when they stopped pleasing the = clientele.=20 Sometimes they even killed the johns who showed up to the brothel = with big=20 wads of cash. After too many unexplained disappearances, the cops = raided=20 the premises where they found the bodies of eleven males, eighty = females,=20 and several fetuses.

Bruno Ludke = (80) A=20 German laundry delivery man, Bruno offed at least 80 women between = 1928=20 and 1943. When Nazi officials finally caught up with his lethal = hobby,=20 they shipped him off to a research hospital in Vienna where he was = used as=20 a human guinea pig by Nazi doctors. When they were done with their = experiments, Bruno was executed by lethal injection.

Michael = Swango (60 +/-)=20 Authorities suspect Michael Swango, 43, may have poisoned = and=20 killed as many as 60 patients under his care over the past 10 = years when=20 he worked in Ohio, Quincy, Massachusetts, Virginia, South Dakota, = New York=20 and Zimbabwe. In all these places the affable doctor had been = suspected in=20 a number of deaths and sudden illnesses. Although he was never = charged in=20 connection with any, he was either fired or left his respective = jobs while=20 under a cloud of suspicion.

Authorities became aware of alleged career as a "Angel of = Death" in=20 1984 when he worked in Quincy, Illinois, as a paramedic. As with = others in=20 his line of mayhem, many of his co-workers complained that they = became ill=20 every time he brought them food or drinks such as doughnuts, cool = drinks=20 or iced tea. When one of his colleagues found ant poison mixed = with sugar=20 among Swango's belongings, police went to search his home.

There they found "how-to" books on homemade weapons and mass=20 destruction as well as books on the occult, several guns, bottles = with=20 different concentrations of ant poison, a range of insecticides = and rodent=20 killers; and castor beans, from which the almost untraceable = poison,=20 ricin, can be obtained. He was tried, convicted and sentenced to=20 five-years' jail for aggravated battery because none of his = colleagues had=20 died from the poisonings. "I don't think he intended to kill = them," said=20 Judge Dennis Cashman. "I think he wanted to take them to the edge = of=20 death. They were like a lab experiment."

While he was serving his sentence, investigators combed the = Ohio State=20 University Hospital in Columbus, where Swango had been a medical = intern.=20 Nurses told investigators that they had become suspicious because = he was=20 seen in several patients' rooms right before they died = unexpectedly. "I do=20 not think the evidence was clear one way or the other. I am glad = he is not=20 here," said Ohio State University's Larry Carey.

Swango was paroled in 1987 after serving two-and-a-half years = of his=20 five-year sentence. Curiously, after leaving prison he continued = his=20 career in the health care business with increasingly lethal = results. He=20 hopped from job to job and was fired at least three times after he = was=20 suspected of wrongdoing or someone learned about his past.

In the early 1990s Swango landed a job at a State University of = New=20 York hospital. There, Federal of Bureau Investigation agents = investigated=20 147 patients Swango treated and died. Autopsies were performed on = several=20 former patients, but the results were inconclusive. By 1993 -- as = police=20 started piecing together his poisenous path -- he dissapeared to = re-emerge=20 in Zimbabwe. There he worked at a rural hospital where he was = suspended=20 after five patients under his care died in suspicious = circumstances.

After his suspension he travelled to South Africa, the modern = mecca for=20 serial killings, where he contacted Saudi Arabian health = authorities, who=20 offered him a job. Finally in July, 1997, Swango was arrested when = he=20 re-entered the United States to pick up a visa en route to his job = as a=20 physician in Saudi Arabia. Though he has been arrested for = relatively=20 minor fraud charges and illegally prescribing narcotics to = patients,=20 authorities hope to uncover enough evidence to expose him as a = vicous=20 serial killer.

Andrei=20 Chikatilo (52+) The Soviet Hannibal Lecter. As a kid = Andrei's=20 brother was taken by the villagers and eaten during times of = famine. Or so=20 he said. As an adult, while he living a double life as a married = man,=20 Communist Party member and a teacher, Andrei, enjoyed killing = children=20 with impunity .

Chikatilo -- a sexually impotent dirty old man from hell -- = lived in=20 Rostov, 500 miles from Moscow, where he preyed mostly on children. = He=20 stalked many of his victims in train and bus stations, and had a = penchant=20 for disembowelment and mutilation. He was also a cannibal and a = sadist.=20 His macabre twelve-year killing spree was finally uncovered in = 1992.=20 Chikatilo wasn't exceptionally crafty hiding his crimes. = Investigators=20 were hindered by the fact that he was a Party member. Also, the=20 investigation of his crimes was used to flush out many known = homosexuals=20 in a Soviet-style attempt at moral cleansing. Many blame the = incompetence=20 of Soviet authorities and their refusal to admit the existence of = a serial=20 killer in their socialist utopia for his 10-year reign of terror. =

Years before his arrest he was brought in for questioning and = let go=20 when police found that his blood did not match the semen found in = one=20 victim. It is a little known fact that in some rare cases -- = Chikatilo=20 being one -- the blood and semen of a person does not necessarily = have to=20 match. Free again, Andrei continued on his path of destruction = with=20 reckless abandon. Eventually he was arrested because of the = determination=20 of two investigators involved in his previous arrest who = remembered his=20 name after he was seen coming out of a forrest near a train = station.

While he was on trial, his gory descriptions, psychotic = behavior and=20 litany of horrors gave the Soviet public their first taste of = serial=20 mayhem. "I am a mistake of nature, a mad beast," he said at his = 1994 trial=20 where people fainted when they heard how he boiled and ate the = sawn-off=20 testicles or nipples of his victims. Andrei was executed by firing = squad=20 in prison on February 14, 1994. Chikatilo -- like many others in = the=20 Archives -- was the subject of his own grousome movie, "Citizen X" = starring Donald Surtherland and Stephen Rhea.

Anatoly = Onoprienko (52)=20 On April 16, 1996, police arrested Anatoly Onoprienko, a=20 37-year-old former forestry student, sailor and mental hospital=20 outpatient, putting an end to the Ukraine's worst killing spree. = Anatoly,=20 a native of Zhitomir, was arrested atn his girlfriend's house = where he had=20 a 12-gauge shotgun matching the one used in the 40 murders. He = also had=20 jewelry and video equipment belonging to some of his victims. = While in=20 custody Comrade O. immediately confessed to eight killings between = 1989 to=20 1995. At first he denied other charges, but soon admitted to being = the=20 maniac dubbed, "The Terminator" who tallied up to 52 victims in a = six-year=20 killing spree.

Onoprienko's rampage began in 1989, when he and accomplice = Serhiy=20 Rogozin robbed and killed nine people. The former sailor resumed = the=20 killings in late 1995, murdering 43 people in less than six months = before=20 police arrested him in April 1996.

On March, 1996, a manhunt was launched across western Ukraine = after=20 eight families were brutally murdered in their homes. Most of the = victims=20 were in remote villages in the Lvov region near the border of = Poland. His=20 blood lust climaxed with a three-month rampage in which he killed = more=20 than 40 people in the Ukranian villages of Bratkovichi and Busk. = Panic was=20 so widespread in the two villages that an army division was = mobilized and=20 armed personnel carriers patrolled the streets. Trying to put a = stop to=20 the killings, police imposed a security cordon around Bratkovichi. = Undaunted, "The Terminator" moved to nearby villages where he = continued=20 his serial killings.

The killings followed a set pattern. "The Terminator" chose = isolated=20 houses in the outskirts of villages. He would enter the houses = before=20 dawn, round up the family and shoot them all -- including children = --=20 close range with a 12-gauge shotgun. Then he would torch the place = and=20 kill whoever crossed his path during his murderous outbursts. He = often=20 stole valuables from his victims and sometimes scattered family=20 photographs about the floor. Police arrested Citizen O. in his=20 girlfriend's apartment in April, 1996, after a nationwide manhunt. =

On November 23, 1998, the trial of Nasty O. began in the city = of=20 Zhytomyr, 90 miles west of Kiev. The accused claimed he felt like = a robot=20 driven for years by a dark force, and argued he should not be = tried until=20 authorities determine the source of this force. A former forestry = student,=20 sailor and soldier, Mr. O claimed his mother died when he was four = and his=20 father and brother gave him to an orphanage at seven, and that he = had=20 heard voices telling him to do the murders. Dressed in running = shoes, an=20 oversized jacket, a knitted hat, and hadcuffs, Onoprienko sat = calmly=20 inside an iron cage surrounded by police exuding arrogance and = boredom.=20

Hundreds of people huddled in coats and fur hats in the = unheated=20 courtroom were angered by his behaviour. "Let us tear him apart," = shouted=20 a pensioner at the back of the court just before the hearing = started, her=20 voice trembling with emotion. "He does not deserve to be shot. He = needs to=20 die a slow and agonizing death."

In previous interviews Nasty O has rambled endlessly about the = CIA and=20 Interpol, unknown powers and future revelations. Psychiatrists, = however,=20 ruled him fit to stand trial. "I perceive it all as a kind of = experiment,"=20 he said. "There can be no answer in this experiment to what you're = trying=20 to learn."

Sitting in his cell the Ukranian serial killer that came to be = knowsn=20 as the Terminator told Reuters and a regional newspaper: "I have = never=20 regretted anything and I don't regret anything now." In the = bizarre and=20 emotional hour-long interview he added that cosmic forces planned = to=20 destroy humanity and replace it with "bio-robots." With the guards = sitting=20 in a row on a green couch just a foot away, Onoprienko looked his=20 interviewers in the eye and spoke in an intense, rapid voice, at = times=20 almost fierce, of his early discovery of special telepathic = powers.

Claiming hypnotic powers and saying he had information "nobody, = not=20 even the president" had access to, he said he had received = "permission" to=20 kill, but did not explain what drove him to destroy his victims. = "I love=20 all people and I loved those I killed. I looked those children I = murdered=20 in the eyes and knew that it had to be done," he said. "For you = it's 52=20 murders, but for me that's the norm." He said he would have been = prepared=20 to kill his own son.

While in court, he had very little to say. Asked if he would = like to=20 make a statement he shrugged his shoulders, slowly sauntered to = the=20 microphone and said: "No, nothing." Informed of his legal right to = object=20 to the court's proceedings, he growled: "This is your law, I = consider=20 myself a hostage." Asked to state his nationality, he said: = "None." When=20 Judge Dmitry Lipsky said this was impossible, Onoprienko rolled = his eyes=20 and replied: "Well, according to law enforcement officers, I'm=20 Ukrainian."

Though Onoprienko has remained completely silent during court = hearings=20 , when it comes to the media he's a veritable gadfly. The daily = Fakty=20 newspaper published an long interview with Citizen O from his jail = cell in=20 the central town of Zhytomyr in which the 39-year-old terminator = was=20 quoted as saying: "Naturally, I would prefer the death penalty. I = have=20 absolutely no interest in relations with people. I have betrayed = them."=20 The misunderstood killer added that he was shaken by people's = indifference=20 to his crimes. As he slaughtered his victims in one village, = "people=20 screamed so loudly that they could be heard in neighboring = villages. But=20 nobody came to help them. Everybody went into hiding, like mice." =

On February 12, 1999, a Ukrainian court ruled that Anatoli = Onoprienko=20 was mentally competent and could be held responsible for his = crimes. The=20 regional court in Zhytomyr said that Onoprienko "does not suffer = any=20 psychiatric diseases, is conscious of and is in control of the = actions he=20 commits, and does not require any extra psychiatric examination." = With the=20 latest psychiatric examination showing Onoprienko mentally = healthy, he=20 will most likely be convicted and sentenced to death. But he will = not be=20 executed because Ukraine has pledged as a member of the Council of = Europe=20 to suspend capital punishment and eventually ban it.

Dressed in the same track suit and drab duffel coat he has worn = throughout the more than three months of hearings, Anatoly = Onoprienko, 39,=20 sat impassively in a metal cage at the front of the provincial = courtroom=20 and refused to speak at the end of his trial. Onoprienko's = co-defendant=20 Sergei Rogozin, accused of helping in the first nine murders, did = speak=20 and proclaimed his innocence.

But while the start of the trial attracted hordes of angry = spectators,=20 prosecutor Yuri Ignatenko made his demand for the death sentence = on March=20 3, 199, before a practically empty chamber. And the half-filled = court=20 consisted mainly of other judges attached to the court and their = staff,=20 whose main emotion was relief at the end of the ordeal. "Thank = goodness=20 that's over!" said a secretary leaving the hearing.

"My defendant was from the age of four deprived of motherly = love, and=20 the absence of care which is necessary for the formation of a real = man,"=20 Onoprienko's lawyer Ruslan Moshkovsky told the court. Ignatenko = said an=20 examination of Onoprienko's mental health during the investigation = had=20 overturned an independent diagnosis of schizophrenia made before = his=20 arrest, and a further test ordered by the court confirmed his = current=20 mental health.

"Onoprienko's statements about mental seizures, being spied on, = voices,=20 and the influence of higher powers...are a simulation of mental = illness=20 and a reaction to the situation he is in," Ignatenko said. The = prosecutor=20 added that O's motives lay in his own violent nature, unchecked = due to=20 what he said was the incompetence of the police force. "In every = society=20 there have been and are people who due to their innate natures can = kill,=20 and there are those who will never do that," he added.

Two weeks after sentencing, Nasty O. granted an interview to = Mark=20 Franchetti, a writer for the London Times:

It took the Ukrainian guard a full two minutes to unlock the = heavy=20 metal door to Anatoly Onoprienko's small cell. Even the toughest = guards=20 on death row at the 19th-century prison in Zhitomir, 80 miles = west of=20 Kiev, are wary of Onoprienko and take no risks. Peering through = a narrow=20 opening in the door, one of them shouted at him to stand up and = face the=20 wall with his hands behind his back.

Anatoly Ivanuik, the prison's deputy governor, searched the = outer=20 corridor meticulously before giving the order for the last bolt = to be=20 released. Slowly the door opened. Onoprienko, who once proposed = to his=20 girlfriend with a ring he had chopped from the finger of one of = his=20 victims a few hours earlier, was ready to grant an audience. =

Three years after his arrest, following the largest manhunt = ever=20 mounted in Ukraine, Onoprienko showed no remorse as he described = wiping=20 out entire families in cold blood, battering children and raping = a woman=20 after shooting her in the face.Still defiant, Citizen O takes = pride in=20 what he calls the "professionalism" of his crimes. Clearly = relishing his=20 notoriety, he often stared at me, trying to make me avert my = eyes while=20 insisting that he was a good-natured person and a sensitive = music-lover.=20

"The first time I killed, I shot down a deer in the woods," = he said,=20 in a flat monotone, as if reading from his curriculum vitae. "I = was in=20 my early twenties and I recall feeling very upset when I saw it = dead. I=20 couldn't explain why I had done it, and I felt sorry for it. I = never had=20 that feeling again."

"To me killing people is like ripping up a duvet," he said, = his=20 piercing blue eyes fixed on mine. "Men, women, old people, = children,=20 they are all the same. I have never felt sorry for those I = killed. No=20 love, no hatred, just blind indifference. I don't see them as=20 individuals, but just as masses."

Onoprienko's crimes have caused such revulsion in Ukraine, = however,=20 that the Ukranian president is considering temporarily lifting a = moratorium on capital punishment that was imposed on Marcxh, = 1997, in=20 accordance with the rules of the Council of Europe, to execute = him. The=20 alternative, to commute the serial killer's sentence to 20 years = in=20 jail, would outrage most Ukrainians.

On one occasion he confronted a young girl who was huddled on = her=20 bed, praying. She had seen him kill both her parents. "Seconds = before I=20 smashed her head, I ordered her to show me where they kept their = money,"=20 he said. "She looked at me with an angry, defiant stare and = said, 'No, I=20 won't.' That strength was incredible. But I felt nothing."

He blew the doors off homes on the edges of villages, gunning = down=20 adults and battering children with metal objects. He stole = money,=20 jewellery, stereo equipment and other items before burning down = the=20 houses.

"He is driven by extreme cruelty," said Dmitri Lipski, the = judge who=20 sentenced him, poring over photographs of Onoprienko's crimes. = "He=20 doesn't care about anything - only about himself. He is = egocentric and=20 has a very high opinion of himself."

A manhunt involving 2,000 police and more than 3,000 troops=20 eventually led to Onoprienko's arrest in April 1996 at his = girlfriend's=20 house near the Polish border following an anonymous tip-off.=20 Investigators fear his tally of victims may be higher than 52, = as there=20 was a long gap between murders when he roamed illegally around = several=20 European countries.

"To me it was like hunting. Hunting people down," mused = Onoprienko=20 with a wry smile as he handed me his autograph scribbled on the = back of=20 a magazine.

"I would be sitting, bored, with nothing to do. And then = suddenly=20 this idea would get into my head. I would do everything to get = it out of=20 my mind, but I couldn't. It was stronger than me. So I would get = in the=20 car or catch a train and go out to kill."

Onoprienko's first victims were a couple, standing by their = Lada car=20 on a motorway: "I just shot them. It's not that it gave me = pleasure, but=20 I felt this urge. From then on, it was almost like some game = from outer=20 space."

He said he had derived no pleasure from the act of killing. = "Corpses=20 are ugly," he said with distaste. "They stink and send out bad = vibes.=20 Once I killed five people and then sat in the car with their = bodies for=20 two hours not knowing what to do with them. The smell was = unbearable."=20

Some experts view the fact that he grew up without parents = and was=20 given up to an orphanage by his elder brother as a clue to his=20 destruction of entire families. Strangely, his most vicious = spree=20 coincided with the time when he moved in with the woman he = intended to=20 marry and with her children - towards whom, she claimed, he was = always=20 very loving.

Onoprienko, however, claimed he was possessed. "I'm not a = maniac," he=20 said, without a hint of self-doubt. "If I were, I would have = thrown=20 myself onto you and killed you right here. No, it's not that = simple. I=20 have been taken over by a higher force, something telepathic or = cosmic,=20 which drove me.

"For instance, I wanted to kill my brother's first wife, = because I=20 hated her. I really wanted to kill her, but I couldn't because I = had not=20 received the order. I waited for it all the time, but it did not = come.=20

"I am like a rabbit in a laboratory. A part of an experiment = to prove=20 that man is capable of murdering and learning to live with his = crimes.=20 To show that I can cope, that I can stand anything, forget = everything."=20

Onoprienko was adamant last week that he would not appeal to = Kuchma=20 to commute his sentence. Instead, he insisted that he should be=20 executed. Suddenly animated, his speech quickened. "If I am ever = let=20 out, I will start killing again," he said. "But this time it = will be=20 worse, 10 times worse. The urge is there.

"Seize this chance because I am being groomed to serve Satan. = After=20 what I have learnt out there, I have no competitors in my field. = And if=20 I am not killed I will escape from this jail and the first thing = I'll do=20 is find Kuchma and hang him from a tree by his testicles."

It was time to leave.

Ahmad=20 Suradji (42) On May 2, 1997, authorities arrested = self-described=20 Indonesian witch doctor Ahmad Suradji after three bodies were = found buried=20 in a sugarcane plantation near his home on the outskirts of Medan, = the=20 capital of North Sumatra.

Ahmad, also known as Nasib Kelewang or Datuk Maringgi, = initially=20 confessed to killing 16 women over a five-year period. A search of = Ahmad's=20 property revealed clothes and watches belonging to 25 missing = women. Under=20 further questioning the 48-year-old cattle breeder increased the = body=20 count of his 11-year rampage to 42. Ahmad's three wives, all = sisters, were=20 also arrested for helping him commit the murders and hide the = corpses. The=20 oldest wife, Tumini, was tried as his accomplice in his 11-year=20 rampage.

The sorcerer was revered by locals who believed he had = paranormal=20 powers, and often asked him for medical and spiritual advice. Many = women=20 would hire him to cast magic spells to ensure the faithfulness of = their=20 husbands or boyfriends. Neighbors said that many women sought the=20 sorcerer's help believing they would make themselves richer, = healthier and=20 more sexually attractive to men. Police believe the victims -- = whose ages=20 ranged from 11 to 30 -- may have been too embarrassed to tell = their=20 families of their seeking the sorcerer's help so their = disappearances were=20 not linked to him. A large amount of them were also prostitutes. =

After charging each victim $200 to $400, he would take them to = a=20 sugarcane plantation near his home and bury them in the ground up = to their=20 waist as part of a ritual. Once in the ground he strangled each = woman with=20 electrical cable. Then he drank their saliva, undressed their = corpses and=20 reburied them with their heads pointing to his home so to enhance = his=20 magical powers. Suradji told police that nine years ago he had a = dream in=20 which the ghost of his father told him to kill 70 women and drink = their=20 saliva so he could become a dukan, or mystic healer, he said.

The sorcerer was said to be widely respected in his village. = Neighbours=20 said he was often willing to help sick villagers and contribute to = charitable causes. Nasib, who led police to the bodies in the = field next=20 to his home, told officers he needed to kill up to 70 women to = gain=20 supernatural powers. Now that the unearthing of 40 corpses testify = to=20 Nasib's true mania, police have asked local residents to report = any more=20 missing women and children. About 80 families in the area have = reported=20 female relatives missing, leading to fears that more bodies could = be=20 uncovered.

During their trials both Suradji and Tumini denied the = slayings, saying=20 they confessed because they could no longer bear torture by = interrogators.=20 On April 27, 1998, an Indonesian court in North Sumatra found the = sorcerer=20 guilty of Indonesia's worst killing spree. As the last of the 42 = bodies=20 was being unearthed, the deadly sorcerer was sentenced to death by = firing=20 squad.

Gerald Stano = (41)=20 Born in Daytona Beach in 1951, Gerald tallied a body count = of 41 as=20 a result of his deep resentment towards a world of "bitches".; A = former=20 short order cook, this mysoginist killer truly enjoyed the act of = killing.=20 He did it with glee and impunity. His decade-long crime spree = began in=20 1969 and spanned across three states -- Florida, New Jersey and=20 Pennsylvania. His victims of choice were generally prostitutes, = runaways=20 and hitchhiking teen agers.

Unlike most other serial killers, he never raped his victims -- = instead=20 he submitted them to slow, painful deaths. As one of the = investigating=20 officers pointed out, "He thinks about three things: stereo = systems, cars,=20 and killing women." Stano was arrested 1978 and charged with the = December,=20 1973, murder of Cathy Lee Scharf, a 17-year-old hitchhiker from = Port=20 Orange, Florida.

Stano confessed picking up the teen ager while she was = hitchhiking on=20 U.S. 1 in Port Orange and choking her repeatedly over several = hours. After=20 finally killing the girl, he dumped her body in a drainage ditch, = cleaned=20 up and went roller skating. Hunters found her decomposed body at = the=20 Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge near Titusville on January = 19,=20 1974.

In 1983 Stano was convicted and sentenced to Old Sparky, = Florida's=20 temperamental, three-legged electric chair. He also was condemned = for the=20 murders of Susan Bickrest, 24, and Cathy Muldoon, 23, in Volusia = County.=20 He got life sentences for six other slayings. After 25 years of = appeals,=20 Gerald was executed at 7:00 AM, March 23, 1998. For his last meal, = Stano=20 ordered a Delmonico steak, baked potato with sour cream and bacon = bits,=20 some French bread with butter and a tossed salad topped with blue = cheese=20 dressing. He finished the meal with half gallon of mint chocolate = chip ice=20 cream and two liters of Dr. Pepper.

Stano was the first death row inmate to die in Florida's = 75-year-old,=20 oak chair since the March 25, 1997 flaming execution of Pedro = Medina.=20 After a foot-long flame leaped from the head of Medina -- the = second=20 malfunction by the chair within seven years -- State authorities = imposed a=20 one-year moratorium on electrocutions. Investigators eventually = determined=20 the malfunction was caused by the executioners' failure to = properly apply=20 electrically conducting sponges in the chair's headpiece. With a = heavily=20 backed-up execution schedule and coming elections, the state's = Senate=20 voted unanimously to reinstate electrocution and scheduled four = within an=20 eight-day period.

The first on the block was Stano. The unrepentant killer made = no final=20 statement and stared straight ahead as he was strapped in. = Following his=20 death -- which, unlike in previous executions, no smoke or flames = came=20 shooting out of his head -- his attorneys distributed a written = statement=20 in which he thanked his friends and supporters: "Know that I love = you all=20 and cherish your love. Thanks for staying with me when people = ridiculed=20 you... I am innocent."

Richard "Iceman" Kuklinski (40+) Kuklinski was a=20 professional hit man by trade with a serial killer passion on the = side.=20 Although suspected of at least 40 murders, while in custody Rich = said that=20 he only killed to support his family. A regular Mr. Short Fuse, = Rich=20 killed an unsuspecting motorist for cutting him off. He ran him = off the=20 road, beat him to death, than ran over his body repeatedly.

Not the family type, he is said to have once blown the head off = the=20 shoulders of a man over a bet. He also allegedly slit a man too = see how=20 long it would take him to bleed to death. He once chopped up a = body, put=20 it in a 50 gallon drum and placed the drum outside of his favorite = hot dog=20 stand. Rich got life and now sits rotting in a jail cell in New = Jersey.=20

Erszebet = Bathory (40+)=20 A Sixteenth Century Hungarian Countess, Erszebet enjoyed = bathing in=20 blood. This deviant fawn of royalty believed that regular blood = baths=20 would halt the aging process. Estimates of the number of girls = that were=20 slaughtered for her 10 years of beauty treatments vary from 40 to = as much=20 as 600.

The bloody Countess, the widow of a celebrated Hungarian war = hero and=20 descendent of the legendary despot Vlad the Impaler, led a life = immersed=20 in black magic and sadism. She once had the mouth of a servant = sewn shut=20 for being too noisy. In January 1611, after countless rumors about = her=20 behavior, a group led by Count Thurzo - Erzsebet's cousin - = entered her=20 Castle Csejthe and uncovered a blood-letting in progress.

In order to protect the family name, at the Count's insistance, = Erzsebet was never actually "charged" with any crime, although he = did have=20 her put under "house arrest." In fact, her royal highness was = literally=20 sealed into her tower by masons. The consulate agreed largely = because the=20 government had a huge debt it would have had to pay off should = they charge=20 her.

Two of her accomplices in her orgies of horror had their = fingers=20 removed before being thrown on the fire. Another - the only male - = was=20 beheaded then thrown on the fire. The countess died on August 21, = 1614,=20 three years after she was sealed in her bedroom. Perhaps her = elixir of=20 youth had been working all along.

Moses = Sithole (38+)=20 A surprisingly intelligent and gentle mannered Moses = Sithole is=20 allegedly South Africa's worst serial killer. The suspected = Gauteng serial=20 killer, Sithole was charged in the Pretoria Supreme Court with 38 = charges=20 of murder, 40 charges of rape and six of robbery. Between 1994 and = 1995 he=20 allegedly strangled women in the Pretoria, Johannesburg and East = Rand=20 areas. Most victims were lured to secluded fields where Sithole = allegedly=20 assaulted, raped and strangled them with their own underwear or = belts.=20

The series of murders started in June 1994, shortly after = Sithole had=20 served house arrest for rape. Between 1994 and 1995 South African=20 authorities were alarmed by the growing number of dead women = appearing=20 around Pretoria and Johannesburg. Several of the women were left = with=20 their hands tied behind their backs. One woman was blindfolded. = Many were=20 found with their heads covered with clothing. Apparently he = murdered his=20 first victim because she had shouted at him when he asked her for=20 directions. "I cannot remember her name," he said. "I killed her = and left=20 her there. I went straight home and had a shower."

Robert Ressler, the F.B.I. Behavioral Science Unit's former = chief, was=20 called in to help with the investigation. Ressler concluded that = the=20 killings in Cleveland, a suburb of Johannesburg, and Boksburg, a = suburb of=20 Pretoria, were linked. In his psychological profile of the killer = he=20 indicated the possibility of two killers acting together.

On October 18, 1995, after a week-long nationwide hunt, police = shot and=20 wounded Moses Sithole, an ax-wielding ex-convict with six aliases. = When he=20 was arrested, authorities thought Sithole might have been acting = in=20 conjunction with David = Selepe=20 but no evidence has been uncovered suggesting that both men knew = each=20 other. Unfortunately for Selepe, he was killed by police while in = custody.=20

On October 22, 1996, Sithole appeared in court and was charged = with 38=20 murders and 40 rapes. On November 14, Sithole's trial was = postponed after=20 the suspect appeared in court looking very pale and with his pants = soaked=20 with blood. The HIV positive killer was rushed to the hospital = where he=20 was treated for a wound on his knee. According to his defense = team, the=20 injury came from a fall he sustained at Pretoria Central Prison. =

A jailhouse confession videotape -- made by Charles Schoeman on = the=20 condition that Sithole and three other prisoners would get a share = of the=20 royalties -- shows a visibly relaxed Sithole in a cell either = smoking or=20 chewing on an apple while giving a chilling account one of his = victim's=20 lasts moments before death. Sithole -- an avid talker -- was a = willing=20 party to a series of video and audio tapes made by fellow = prisoners. In=20 them he told fellow prisoners that he hated women and felt he was = teaching=20 them "a very good lesson" by murdering them.

Facts contained in the tapes were repeated in a confession to = the=20 police and in a phone conversation with a Johannesburg journalist. = An=20 unknown caller, identified by voice experts as Sithole, claimed to = be the=20 Gauteng serial killer and gave details of where he had left the = bodies of=20 several of his victims.

Sithole officially became South Africa's worst serial killer On = December 5, 1997. when he was found guilty of 38 murders and 40 = rapes.=20 Sithole -- who's overwhelming arrogance had ultimately brought = about his=20 downfall -- sat emotionless, taking down notes throughout the = three-hour=20 judgment. After the judgment, he gathered up his briefcase and = left the=20 courtroom with a smile on his face. The next day, as people in the = gallery=20 cheered and applauded, Sithole was sentenced to 2,410 year in = jail.=20 Relatives of the victims shouted for his head and called for the = return of=20 capital punishment. The judge -- who also made a plea for the = restoration=20 of the death penalty -- said he would have sentenced Sithole to = death=20 without hesitation.

Donald Harvey = (34+)=20 The most prolific killer nurse of the trade. When he was = not offing=20 his patients, Donny enjoyed hanging out in the morgue and studying = tissue=20 samples. An amateur Satanist, he would joke with the hospital = staff about=20 "getting rid of patients." Little did they know, it was no joke. =

Harvey murdered with abandon from the early seventies to 1987 = when he=20 was finally caught. He claimed that his killings were "mercy" = killings=20 even though he sometimes chose horrible substances to bring on = death. He=20 also did not limit his work to those hospitalized. He killed a = neighbor=20 out of spite by lacing her drink with hepatitis. He would also = poison his=20 male lover and then nurse him back to health to win his affection. = On=20 another occasion he poisoned his lover's family, killing the = mother. He=20 was convicted of thirty-four deaths but it is believed that he = actually=20 tallied eighty-seven kills.

Fernando = Hernandez Leyva=20 (33-135) Mexican police said a Cuernavaca man they arrested = on=20 charges of assault and kidnapping had confessed to killing more = than 100=20 people. Jose Castillo, chief prosecutor of central Morelos state, = told a=20 news conference that police arrested Fernando Hernandez, alias = "Pancho=20 Lopez." Castillo said he was unaware of any criminal who had a = more=20 violent record in Mexican history.

Hernandez also appeared at the news conference, telling = reporters: "I=20 committed about 100 homicides and six kidnappings." Castillo said = police=20 in four different states had sought the man they knew as "Pancho = Lopez" in=20 connection with 38 slayings and dozens of violent assaults and=20 kidnappings. "I killed them because I had to," Hernandez added. "I = don't=20 know how to do anything else."

On April 4, a criminal court judge in Cuernavaca, 35 miles = south of=20 Mexico City, ordered Hernandez Leyva held over for trial along = with three=20 alleged accomplices on several murder, robbery and kidnapping = counts.=20 Hernandez Leyva is suspected in 137 killings, six kidnappings and = several=20 robberies in Mexico City and the states of Morelos, Jalisco, = Colima,=20 Guanajuato and Michoacan.

The 36-year-old suspect told reporters that he is innocent of = most of=20 the charges. He admitted to kidnapping a journalist in Jalisco and = to=20 killing of a police officer. Hernandez Leyva said judicial police = officers=20 had beat him and threatened to rape his wife and take away his = children=20 unless he confessed to the crimes. Authorities made no comment = about his=20 allegations.

When Leyva was transferred to a state prison after crowds of = victims'=20 families in Cuernavaca called for his blood. "We want to lynch = him," said=20 Joel Uribe Landa, one of about 50 people gathered outside the = Morelos=20 state prosecutors' office, where Hernandez Leyva was taken for = questioning=20 before being transferred to the state prison. The unusually heavy = police=20 detail present during the transfer served a double purpose: to = protect the=20 suspect from angry protesters and to make sure he didn't escape, = as he has=20 done at least twice over the last 13 years.

Prosecutor Jose Leonardo Castillo Pombo said Hernandez Leyva is = a=20 suspect in kidnappings, robberies and as many as 135 murders in = five=20 southern Mexican states. Castillo Pombo said he opposed the death = penalty,=20 but added that "if the country is legally prepared to apply it, = Mexicans=20 should hold a referendum, so that public opinion can decide."

As evidence rolls in from prosecutors in outlying states, the = number of=20 potential murder charges against Hernandez Leyva continues to = rise. Eleven=20 more murder investigations forwarded by prosecutors in western = Jalisco=20 state name him as the prime suspect, bringing the caseload to 33 = in four=20 days. But under Mexican law -- in which sentences are served = concurrently=20 -- the most Hernandez Leyva is likely to face is a sentence of 50 = years in=20 prison, with time off for good behavior.

Hernandez Leyva was arrested in 1982 in Cuernavaca, 35 miles = south of=20 Mexico City, on robbery charges but escaped from jail by tunneling = through=20 a wall. He was arrested again on suspicion of murder and robbery = in 1986,=20 but again escaped from Mexico City's Western penitentiary. Morelos = state=20 officials have applied to the federal government for him to be = transferred=20 to a maximum security federal prison.

On April 12 Leyva attempted to hang himself in his jail cell. = The=20 confessed serial killer, who weighs about 300 pounds, used a rope = to try=20 and hang himself from cell bars, but the rope broke and he = suffered only=20 abrasions on his neck. A police psychological exam of suspect = released=20 earlier concluded that Hernandez Leyva is a "psychopath" who = murdered for=20 "personal satisfaction."

John Wayne Gacy = (33)=20 Straight out of the he's-such-a-nice-guy file, Johnny was = the type=20 of man who liked to dress in a homemade Pogo the Clown outfit to = entertain=20 kids. A lonely and sadistic contractor, Johnny also liked to = entertain=20 young boys privately in a very different fashion. The prototypical = organized killer, he had all aspects of the murder worked out = before each=20 kill. Once he entered his murderous fantasy, there was no turning = back.=20

He enjoyed handcuffing his victims, anally raping them, beating = them to=20 a pulp, offering to make peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, = reciting=20 verses from the Bible and strangling them to death. In 1978 he was = tracked=20 down by the police in Chicago. Thirty bodies were found buried in = the=20 crawl space underneath his house, explaining his wife's complaints = about=20 the constant stench. As a prisoner, Johnny Boy started a new = career as an=20 artist, painting mostly colorful clown pictures, which have been = shown in=20 galleries nationwide. He was executed by lethal injection in 1994. =

On November 11, 1998, the Chicago Tribune reported that police, = acting=20 on a tip from a former detective, were searching for human remains = in a=20 parking lot behind Gacy's mother's house. Authorities believe = there could=20 be as many as four bodies buried 3 1/2 feet deep. Former Detective = Bill=20 Dorsch, now a private investigator, told prosecutors of a night in = 1975=20 when he found Gacy holding a dirty shovel next to the alley where = the new=20 search is proposed. "I stopped and said, 'John, what are you doing = out=20 here at this time of night with a shovel?"' Dorsch said. Gacy = replied:=20 "Well, with all the kind of work I do, there just isn't enough = time in the=20 day. So here I am."

Vasili = Komaroff (33)=20 A horse-trader during the early days of Stalin, Vasili was = known as=20 "The Wolf of Moscow" for his unbridled reign of terror. A peasant, = Vasili=20 typically killed for money. His first victim was uncovered in = 1921. Many=20 others followed with frightful regularity. There were 21 in all:=20 strangled, bound, doubled-over and dumped in vacant lots around = the=20 Shabolovki District. Authorities linked the killings to the = horse-trading=20 market un Moscow that happened every Wednesdays and Fridays. As=20 authorities soon discovered, anyone who left with Vasili to see = his horses=20 was never seen or heard of again. When police went to his home to = question=20 him they found his latest victim stuffed in a sack in the stable.=20 Panicked, "the Wolf" jumped out the window and escaped.

Several days later he was picked up and confessed to the tune = of 33=20 killings, 11 of which were not under investigation. Over the next = few days=20 he uncovered five new corpses for the authorities. The other six = victims=20 he dumped in the river and their bodies were never recovered. = Vasili=20 implicated his wife Sofia as an accomplice. They were both found = guilty of=20 multiple homicides and sentenced to death. On June 18, 1923, they = went to=20 the "big horse-show in the sky" via firing squad.

Jane Toppan = (31+)=20 Born in Boston as Nora Kelly to typical future serial = killer misery=20 in 1854. When she was still an infant her mother died and her = tailor=20 father was institutionalized for trying to stitch his eyelids = shut. After=20 a brief stint in an orphanage, Nora was adopted by the Toppan = family and=20 changed her name to Jane. From then on she led a very normal life = until,=20 as a young woman, she was jilted by her fiancee, had a nervous = breakdown=20 and unsuccessfully tried to commit suicide.

Although she excelled as a student in Nursing School, she = raised some=20 eyebrows with her morbid curiosity for autopsies. Eventually she = was=20 unceremoniously dismissed after two patients died mysteriously = under her=20 care.Not the passive type, Jane forged her nursing degree and went = out=20 looking for a job as a private nurse.

Jane was a considered a kind and sensitive nurse who regularly = took=20 care of the sick and elderly for Boston's best families. However, = most of=20 her patients and their families died mysteriously after ingesting = some of=20 her "special" potions. Over two decades, Jane blazed through the = homes of=20 New England society with her trusty morphine cocktails to the tune = of a=20 least 31 deaths.

America's premiere female "Angel of Death," Jane's deadly trail = unravelled in the summer of 1901 when all four members of the = Davis family=20 dropped dead. Suspicious of the kindly nurse who had treated them, = the=20 husband of the fourth victim ordered the Massachusetts State = Police to=20 perform an autopsy on his wife. Authorities confirmed that a = lethal dose=20 of morphine and atropine killed his wife. Jane fled Boston and was = finally=20 arrested in Amherst on October 29, 1901.

In custody Jane confessed to 31 kills. It is believed her true=20 bodycount is somewhere between 70 to 100 deaths. In her 1902 = trial,=20 doctors said Jane was "born with a weak mental condition." In true = serial=20 killer madness, Jane declared in court, "That is my ambition. To = have=20 killed more people -- more helpless people -- than any man or = woman who=20 has ever lived." Having fulfilled her wish, she was found insane = and sent=20 to the state asylum in Tauton, Massachusetts where she died in = August,=20 1938, at the ripe age of 84.

Although she was remembered by the hospital staff as a "quiet = old=20 lady," she still had murderous fantasies permeating her brain. = Orderlies=20 remember how she would say, "Get some morphine, dearie, and we'll = go out=20 in the ward. You and I will have a lot of fun seeing them die." =

Gerard John = Schaefer=20 (30+) This homicidal Martin County, Florida, deputy = sheriff, though=20 convicted in 1973 of only two mutilation murders, is believed to = be=20 responsible for at least thirty killings. A sadistic sex-beast by = nature,=20 Schaefer would lure young women off the roads with the help of his = badge=20 to torture, mutilate and murder. He enjoyed tying his victims to = trees and=20 leaving them there while he went to work as a police officer. = Teeth,=20 jewelry identification papers from several missing young women = were found=20 in a closet in his mother's house in Ft. Lauderdale.

When he was convicted for first degree murder of two teen-aged = girls,=20 Schaefer's wife divorced him and promptly married his defense = attorney.=20 Not the resentful type, Gerard gave the lovebirds his blessing and = retained the attorney to continue handling his appeals. Curiously, = he was=20 later tried for plotting to to kill them both and enjoyed sending = them=20 death threats regularly.

Schaefer was also a part-time novelist, penning a lurid = collection of=20 tales of sexualized violence called "Killer Fiction" -- available = from Feral=20 House -- that was published in 1989 by Sondra = London, an old=20 high school sweetheart, who subsequently "shackled up" with Danny = Rolling,=20 another sadistic killer awaiting execution in Florida.

On December 3, 1995, Gerard was found dead in his cell at the = Florida=20 State Prison in Starke. He had been stabbed 42 times about the = head and=20 neck, and slashed across his throat. His sister, Sarah Schaefer, = claimed=20 that her brother was murdered by his jailhouse buddy, cannibal = killer Ottis = Toole,=20 because of information he had obtained on the murder of Adam = Walsh, the=20 6-year-old Hollywood, Florida, boy whose abduction and murder led = to the=20 passing of new legislation nationwide regarding missing children. = Ottis=20 once claimed he killed young Adam but later recanted. Prison = authorities=20 believe Gerard's death was linked to his activities as a jailhouse = lawyer.=20 However, confessed double-slayer Vincent Rivera is currently = facing trial=20 for murdering Schaefer, allegedly because Schaefer used the last = of the=20 hot drinking water on the tier.

Karl Denke = (30+) A=20 German innkeeper in Silesia with a taste for the "long pig," Denke = butchered at least thirty of his lodgers and kept their pickled = remains in=20 the basement of his inn. An avid church-goer who was known locally = as=20 "Papa," Karl especialized in slaying beggars, tramps and = journeymen who=20 would not be missed. When he was arrested in 1924 he told police = that for=20 the past three years he had eaten only sausages made of human = flesh.

Micajah & = Wiley Harpe=20 (30+) Brothers Big and Little Harpe have been credited by = historian=20 Paul I. Wellman with 30+ murders in Kentucky and Tennessee in the = 1790's.=20 The wandering types, they enjoyed killing on whim. Once Big Harpe = quieted=20 a crying baby by bashing its skull in. Many victims were disposed = by=20 stuffing stones within their abdomens before dumping them in the = nearest=20 river.

They used a more dramatic method of killing when they = temporarily=20 joined Sam Mason's river pirates. After the gang had taken a man = prisoner,=20 the Harpes bound him naked to the back of a horse and goaded it to = run=20 over a cliff into the Ohio River. Though the river pirates had a=20 reputation for being hard cases, this was too much for them and = the Harpes=20 were sent packing. Shortly after that a posse of citizens caught = up with=20 Big Harpe and mounted his severed head on a tree. Little Harpe, = not as=20 psychotic as his brother, met an uncertain fate, possibly being = killed in=20 a river boat fight.

Patrick W. = Kearney=20 (28+) The top ranked Californian freeway killer. A = fastidiously=20 neat and organized murderer, Pat left his dismembered victims = neatly=20 wrapped in trash bags along the Californian highways. Kearney and = his=20 live-in lover, David D. Hill, both army veterans, lived in a = meticulously=20 clean bachelor pad in Redondo Beach, from where they launched = their=20 homicidal escapades. The "Trash Bag Murders," as they were known, = started=20 in 1975 and ended on July 5, 1977, when the couple walked into the = Sheriff's Information Center in Riverside, saw a wanted poster of=20 themselves and surrendered. Hill was subsequently released for = lack of=20 evidence. Kearney shouldered the guilt and confessed that killing = "excited=20 him and gave him a feeling of dominance."

Wayne = Williams (28)=20 Suspected of being the Atlanta Child Murderer, Wayne killed = mostly=20 young, black boys and dumped their bodies in the Chattahoochee = River. He=20 was caught when he departed from his modus operandi and smoked a = couple of=20 adults. When he was arrested Wayne was described as the "Pillsbury = Doughboy." Unlike many other serial killers, he was soft-spoken,=20 mild-mannered and friendly.

His thick glasses, soft features and delicate hands made him an = unlikely candidate for commiting 28 murders. Many black leaders=20 characterized his arrest as being racial in nature. However, as = his trial=20 progressed, Wayne emerged as a person emotionally capable of = murder with=20 an "inadequate personality" and an "obsessive need for control." = Though at=20 first he presented himself as an innocent victim of circumstance = who=20 happened to be at the worng place at the wrong time, when FBI = agents=20 searched the home he shared with his retired-schoolteacher = parents, they=20 found books on how to cheat polygraph tests as well as the crucial = fiber=20 evidence that eventually linked him to 12 murders.

After his arrest the killings ceased for a period, or so did = police=20 say. Some police say evidence against him was flawed and believe = the case=20 should be reopened. Williams' lawyer claimed a Klansman named = Charles=20 Sanders confessed to the police that he helped the KKK kidnap and = murder=20 21 black children. Allegedly, this evidence was suppressed to = avoid a race=20 war.

John Douglas, the FBI agent whose profile led to Wayne's = arrest,=20 believes he was probably one of four killers active in the area. = Douglas=20 believes that evidence links Williams to at most 12 murders. = According to=20 the retired Federal agent, there are still black children being = murdered=20 in Atlanta and local authorities -- scared of what they might = uncover --=20 are trying to keep a lid on it.

On June 5, 1998, two investigators of the widely publicized = Atlanta=20 missing and murdered children cases said again they believe = convicted=20 killer Wayne Williams is innocent. DeKalb County Sheriff Sidney = Dorsey and=20 Fulton County Police Chief Louis Graham, both Atlanta police = homicide=20 investigators at the time the rash of killings occurred in the = early=20 1980s, made the assertions on "Dateline NBC." The state has also=20 introduced evidence of 10 other murders, for which Williams was = never=20 indicted. Police ultimately blamed him for 24 deaths.

Williams was convicted of murder in the deaths of Nathaniel = Cater, 27,=20 and Jimmy Ray Payne 21, two of 29 young Altanta blacks murdered = between=20 1979 and 1981. Williams was convicted of two of the homicides, but = 22=20 others were closed after his conviction; five cases remain open. =

After the conviction, authorities blamed Williams, who is = black, for 22=20 other slayings but never charged him. Five of the 29 murders = investigated=20 by a special police task force remain officially open. The = 41-year-old=20 freelance photographer and talent scout was convicted in 1982 and=20 sentenced to two life terms.

Williams became a suspect in the string of murders in May 1981 = when=20 police staking out a bridge over the Chattahoochee River -- where = some of=20 the victims' bodies had been found -- heard a splash and stopped = Williams=20 as he drove away. Two days later, the body of Cater was found = downstream.=20

The main prosecution evidence against Williams was tiny fibers = found on=20 the bodies and matched to rugs and other fabrics in the home and = cars of=20 Williams' parents. His attorney said he is pushing for DNA testing = to set=20 him free after 18 years in prison. Lawyer Lynn Whatley said he is = trying=20 to raise the money to have tests--using advances in the = science--conducted=20 on hair and blood that linked Williams to two murders.

Fritz=20 Haarmann (27+) Born in 1879, this perverted German = pederast and=20 his lover, Hans Grans, stalked the train stations of post-WWI = Hannover=20 searching for young boys. Always the enterprising killers, they = would sell=20 the flesh and clothing of their victims for fun and profit. Their = deadly=20 trade was first discovered in 1924 when bones from twenty-seven = bodies=20 were dredged out of the Leine River. A coat from one of the = missing boys=20 was traced back to the murderous love birds. Once in custody, = Fritz=20 started confessing. Haarmann enjoyed the attention he received = during the=20 trial and boasted of having killed up to forty people. He was = decapitated=20 on April 15, 1925. His lover Grans, who was not involved in the = killings,=20 received a twelve year sentence for selling stolen = merchandise.

Roger = Andermatt (27)=20 On September 11, 2001, 32-year-old Swiss nurse, claiming he = acted=20 out of compassion, confessed to killing 27 elderly and ailing = patients=20 over a six-year period. The nurse, identified as Roger Andermatt, = was=20 arrested at the end of June after a suspicious death in a nursing = home. He=20 subsequently admitted killing nine patients there. Suspecting the = toll=20 might be higher, police launched a full investigation into = mysterious=20 deaths in other homes where Andermatt worked. Under interrogation, = Andermatt confessed to 18 other killings, including 12 in a home = for=20 invalids in the central Swiss town of Sarnen.

If the death toll is confirmed, Andermatt will become = Switzerland's=20 worst serial killer. Andermatt allegedly gave his victims an = overdose of=20 tranquilizers or smothered them with a folded plastic bag or a = small piece=20 of cloth over the mouth and nose. In some instances, the nurse = claimed he=20 first sedated the patients before suffocating them.

Andermatt insisted his motives were "sympathy, compassion and a = desire=20 to end the suffering of the patient." But he also confessed that = in some=20 cases he was simply overwhelmed by the stress of work. The = government in=20 Obwalden, the small state where Andermatt lived and where many of = the=20 murders took place, said it was in shock. "The government regards = it as=20 tragic that such a crime could happen in such well-known and = trusted=20 surroundings," it said.

Dean Corll = (27) Born=20 on Christmas Eve, 1939, this Texan maniac enjoyed killing young = boys in=20 the comfort of his own home. Friendly Dean would invite kids into = his=20 house to sniff glue and then, when they passed out, he would slip = on the=20 handcuffs and party in their butts all night long before snapping = their=20 life away. Not the shy type, Dean enjoyed biting his victim's = dicks off=20 and kept a collection of them in a bag. In August 1973, one of his = teen-aged helpers, Elmer Wayne Henley, shot and killed the portly=20 psychopath after saying he would help him snatch more youngsters. = Police=20 found seventeen bodies under the floor of a boat house Dean rented = as well=20 as the bag full of severed genitalia.

Juan Martin = Cantu (26)=20 For more than a decade, Juan Martin Cantu lived with his = wife in a=20 ramshackle house near the Gulf Coast of Texas and worked odd jobs. = On the=20 side this model neighbor had a life as a hit man. The truth came = out after=20 Cantu was arrested on a charge of felony marijuana possession. = During his=20 interrogation, he admitted he had served time in Texas and Mexican = prisons=20 and that he also was responsible for 26 murders for which he had = never=20 been charged, precinct Deputy Constable George Gavito said. "I = asked him,=20 'Do you get off on this, get a joy from it?' And he smiles and he = tells=20 me, 'You know, it gives me a thrill," Gavito said.

Cantu, jailed under the name Juan Martin Medrano, has a = criminal record=20 in Texas that dates to at least 1974, when he was convicted of = burglary.=20 After at least two more felony convictions for lesser offenses, he = confessed in 1978 to six slayings, Gavito said. He was transferred = to a=20 Mexican prison under the terms of a 1970s treaty that allows = foreign=20 nationals to transfer to facilities in their home countries, but = he was=20 released four years later, police said. He had been living in = Laguna=20 Heights since at least 1991.

Cantu, 46, grew up the son of a poor rancher in the small = Mexican state=20 of Morelos. His first victim apparently had threatened his = brother. By 17,=20 he had become a contract killer, Gavito said. "He sat down with me = and he=20 told me that he started to kill people when he was 14," Gavito = said.

Gavito said Cantu placed the unsolved murders in several = Mexican=20 cities: Vera Cruz, Ciudad Juarez = and=20 Matamoros. He also said he killed people in Brownsville, Houston = and=20 Dallas; in Naples and Jacksonville, Fla.; and in Alabama. = Investigator Lt.=20 Joe Garcia said Cantu had been a known hit man for drug kingpin = Cacho=20 Espinosa.

Bruce Lee (26) = Not to be=20 confused with the martial arts legend, but instead a deformed = epileptic=20 pyromaniac who legally changed his name in honor of his = Kung-Fu-fighting=20 hero. This British arsonist once torched an old man after arguing = with him=20 over what to feed the pigeons. He killed eleven more people when = he set an=20 old age home ablaze. In 1980 British police arrested him in a = public=20 bathroom frequented by gay men while he was looking for a blow = job. He=20 confessed to all his crimes and is now locked up in an insane = asylum=20 practicing his Kung-Fu kicks.

Leonard Lake=20 & Charles Ng (11-25) This pair of = survivalists from=20 hell built a torture chamber and snuff film parlor in a remote = Northern=20 California ranch to fuel their perverse lustmord. Lake, who went=20 underground in 1982 after skipping bail on a weapons charge, was = fond of=20 his survivalist doomsday plan called "Operation Miranda," which = would be=20 enacted immediately after the WWIII radioactive dust settled. He = was=20 building a system of underground bunkers around the cabin at = Wilseyville,=20 in the Sierra Nevada foothills, where mindless female slaves would = cater=20 to every one of his needs. (It's reassuring to know that even = sadists plan=20 to survive the apocalypse.)

A pathological woman-hater who had been abandoned my his mother = as a=20 child, Lake preyed on men to use their money and their = identification, and=20 preyed on women for sex. In one of the siezed videotapes Lake = expounds on=20 his views on women. "I guess the bottom line of my statement, the = simple=20 fact is, I'm a sexist slob," he says. "I enjoy using a woman ... = but in=20 the long term I don't want to bother." On one of the tapes Lake = mentions=20 "The Collector" -- a novel by John Fowles about an obscure little = clerk=20 with a penchant for butterfly collecting who nets a lovely,=20 twenty-year-old woman -- as his inspiration.

In April 1985, Lake and Ng videotaped themselves mistreating = two=20 captive women at Lake's home in Wilseyville, in the Sierra Nevada=20 foothills of Calaveras County. Kathy Allen, a San Francisco-area=20 supermarket clerk, and Brenda O'Connor, Lake's neighbor, were = never seen=20 again. Lake on tape threatens the women with rape and death if = they don't=20 agree to cooperate as sex slaves. He repeatedly uses the plural = "we" while=20 Ng stands by, Calaveras County District Attorney Peter Smith = pointed out=20 as the prosecution finished its summation. Ng, naked, is seen on = tape=20 getting a massage from a nearly nude Allen; Ng cuts away = O'Connor's shirt=20 and bra as she pleads for her husband and baby, who are also among = his=20 alleged victims.

When captured in 1985 for a bungled shoplifting attempt, Lake = committed=20 suicide by swallowing a cyanide pill. When police reached Lake's = ranch=20 they uncovered a "truckload of bones," and a body stuffed into a = sleeping=20 bag. They also found videotapes and photos documenting their reign = of=20 terror. Ng, the only known serial killer with no vowels in his = last name,=20 escaped to Canada where he was later arrested for another bungled=20 shoplifting attempt. In 1991, after fighting extradition for six = years, he=20 was returned to California where he is charged with conspiring in = the=20 sadistic killings of 12 people: two infants, three women and seven = men.=20 Authorities say Ng and Lake imprisoned, raped and tortured the = women while=20 using the men's identities to take money from banks, credit = accounts and=20 even to collect a Super Bowl pool.

The son of a wealthy Hong Kong businessman, Ng has proved to be = an=20 astute corruptor of the legal system. Using every ruse, the former = ex-Marine has been able to postpone his trial for 13 and a half = years. At=20 one point, after having fired a series of defenders, Superior = Court Judge=20 John J. Ryan allowed Ng to act as his own attorney. After several = months=20 Judge Ryan reinstated a public defender to the case to stop any = more=20 postponements by the crafty alledged serial killer. Finally, on = October=20 26, 1998, his trial -- considered by many legal experts the , most = expensive trial in California legal history -- began in Orange = County.=20

A man who was to play a pivotal role in the trial of accused = serial=20 killer Charles Ng has died in a car accident in Calgary, Canada. = Ng,=20 arrested in Calgary 13 years ago after a worldwide manhunt, = allegedly=20 confessed his crimes to fellow inmate Joseph Maurice Laberge. = Laberge, 46,=20 died May 19 in a car accident near Crossfield, 18 miles north of = Calgary.=20 Laberge -- whose name has not been revealed until now because he = was under=20 a witness protection program -- was alone. Foul play has been = ruled out.=20

During his stint on the witness stand, Charles Ng denied that = his=20 videotaped threats were real, saying they were just "bluffs" to = sexually=20 excite his pal Leonard Lake. Throughout his trial in Orange = County, Ng's=20 lawyers claimed that the Hong Kong native was merely a patsy under = the=20 spell of Leonard Lake. In fact, on the witness stand Ng claimed = that he=20 knew nothing about the murders, even after helping his friend bury = a=20 couple of bodies. When he was questioned by prosecutor Sharlene = Honnaka=20 about the videotaped abuse on Kathy Allen, the shoplifting = ex-marine=20 testified that he had apparently it blocked out memory. The tape = shows=20 Allen giving Ng a massage. "It wasn't a pleasant memory I would = try to=20 remember," Ng said. "It didn't stick out in your mind that you had = a woman=20 that had been kidnapped?" Honnaka said. "My subconscious may be = blocking=20 it. That's my testimony," Ng said. He added that "nothing sexual" = occurred=20 with Allen, although he took a shower with her.

Other testimony revolving around graphic cartoons he made in a = Canadian=20 jail read like the script of an absurdist play. Ng blamed most of = the=20 content of cartoons on Maurice Laberge. When Honnaka showed a = drawing=20 depicting Lake whipping a woman while Ng stands by eating a bowl = of rice,=20 Ng said it was a satire of the allegations, "to show how ludicrous = this=20 sort of thing is." Another drawing depicted a man of Asian = appearance=20 cooking a baby in a wok and the phrase, "Daddy died, momma cried, = baby=20 fried." Ng admitted drawing "the majority of it," but said he had = been=20 goaded by Laberge.

Mr. Good Will himself, Ng said he drew the cartoons only for = the=20 amusement of Laberge. "Every time I send him a cartoon or we = collaborate=20 on a cartoon, he'd laugh." He added that the cartoon was a joke = referring=20 to rumors that Lake and him had microwaved a baby. Other "satiric" = cartoons showed Ng smashing a a baby in a pillowcase against = something,=20 Lake drowning a baby in a pillowcase and a man strangling a woman = with=20 pantyhose during sex.

Prosecutor Honnaka replayed segments of the videos, asking Ng = what he=20 meant by telling a shackled Brenda O'Connor: "You can cry and = stuff like=20 the rest of them, but it won't do you no good." "What do you mean = by 'the=20 rest of them?"' Honnaka asked. "There's no 'rest of them,"' Ng = said. "I=20 just try to project that seriousness ... so she wouldn't resist." = Ng told=20 the prosecutor he was acting tough -- like a character in a Death = Wish=20 movie -- when he cut away O'Connor's shirt and bra and told her: = "You're=20 totally ours."

"I don't want to act like a wimp, put it that way," Ng said. = "You don't=20 want to act like a wimp with a woman who's asking about her = husband and=20 her baby and her friend?" Honnaka countered. "At that time I = didn't know=20 who those people were," said Ng. O'Connor, a 19-year-old neighbor = of=20 Lake's, disappeared in April 1985 about the same time as Lonnie = Bond, 27,=20 their son Lonnie Bond Jr., 1, and friend Scott Stapley, 24, who = lived in=20 San Diego at the time. Ng said he helped Lake bury Bond and = Stapley, and=20 that was the first time he had seen a dead person so closely. That = and the=20 treatment of O'Connor, who was pregnant, left Ng "pretty disturbed = about=20 it afterward," he said.

In a jailhouse interview with the Sacramento Bee, convicted = serial=20 killer Charles Ng said he was shocked and angry for being = sentence3d to=20 death. "It's a strange experience," he said. "It's just like the = doctor=20 telling you that you have a terminal disease . . . You = think you=20 are psychologically prepared for it, but it's still like a big = shock."=20

Three days before the jury's recommendation, juror Karen = Barrett=20 received a call from a man who said he was "Charles" and told her: = "I just=20 wanted to tell you, you are very nice." Superior Court Judge John = J. Ryan=20 allowed the juror to remain on the panel; she said she was = "nervous" but=20 would not be prejudiced by the incident. Ng refused to say whether = he=20 called the juror, but said Barrett was "the only one who gave me a = smile=20 and looked me in the eyes. I don't know whether she had something = going on=20 or not."

On February 24, 1999, a Santa Ana jury found Charlie guilty of = 11=20 counts of first-degree murder. To expedite the process, a = deadlocked count=20 count was dropped by the judge. The jury also found special = circumstances=20 of multiple murder that makes Charlie eligible for the death = penalty. Ng=20 looked down at the defendants' table as the verdicts were read and = showed=20 no reaction.

Dr. Stuart Grassian, a Boston psychiatrist, said Ng's severe=20 personality problems developed early in life because of a strict=20 upbringing in Hong Kong. "He was never encouraged as a child to be = assertive," Grassian said. "He was always morbidly shy as a child = and when=20 teachers would say that he didn't speak in class, his father would = beat=20 him with a cane. He felt debased, devalued. He was told he was = stupid."=20

Ng loved animals, Grassian said, and was devastated when one of = his pet=20 chickens was killed by a family member and wound up on the dinner = table.=20 Grassian said that once Ng came to the United States he sought = guidance=20 from authority figures because he was incapable of determining his = own=20 path in life.

Dr. Stuart Grassian described Ng, 38, as a classic "dependent=20 personality" -- an abused child and someone who would latch onto = authority=20 figures and do their bidding in order to gain acceptance. "Charles = Ng was=20 the type of person that would have ended up in South America = drinking=20 Kool-Aid," said Grassian, referring to a mass suicide by poison at = Jonestown in Guyana. "I don't think he was predestined in terms of = violence or sadism."

"He didn't know how to be assertive because they don't teach = you that=20 in Hong Kong," said his defense lawyer William Kelley. "He wanted = to be=20 told what to do." As a child in Hong Kong Ng was beaten with = chains by his=20 father and spent so much time being ordered around that he became=20 dependent on others to tell him what to do. "He was just like any = other=20 kid," said Alice Shum, Ng's aunt, speaking through a Cantonese=20 interpreter. "A regular kid. He was shy. He was quiet."

Ng came to the United States from his native Hong Kong in = 1978 on=20 a student visa to attend the College of Notre Dame near San Mateo. = He was=20 studying biology, but dropped out after the first year because of = poor=20 grades, he said. Ng then joined the Marines. He said he grew = up=20 watching American war movies and that he had always been = fascinated by the=20 military. In San Francisco, he met a recruiter who enlisted him = even=20 though he was not a citizen or a permanent resident.

He eventually ended up at the Kaneohe Marine Corps Air Station = in=20 Hawaii, where he ran afoul of the military authorities when he and = three=20 other soldiers raided a weapons depot. "It was just a chance = for gun=20 enthusiasts to get their hands on things that you couldn't get in = the=20 outside world," he said. Rather than face a court-martial, Ng = fled.=20

He made his way back to Northern California, where he met Lake, = a=20 fellow Marine and a Vietnam veteran. "Part of me saw him as = the=20 father or big brother I always wanted," Ng said. Their friendship = was=20 interrupted in 1982, when federal authorities raided their mobile = home and=20 seized a large stash of weapons and explosives. Ng, still wanted = by the=20 military, was court-martialed. Lake jumped bail and became a=20 fugitive. Ng served time at Ft. Leavenworth, Kan., then = rejoined Lake=20 in 1984. That's when the killing started.

During the penalty phase of his trial "Ng the victim" told = jurors with=20 graphic descriptions of how he was trussed up and bodily carried = to some=20 of his court appearances even though he never resisted, and showed = photographs of a cage that was built to hold Ng when he arrived in = Calaveras County after being extradited from Canada.

Poor Charlie's lawyers then tried to depict him as a caring and = loving=20 man. According to the lawyer, the evercaring Ng offered = consolation to his=20 friends in times of grief and sent them gifts and artwork from = prison.=20

One Betty Kirkendall of Cleveland, Oklahoma, testified she made = friends=20 with Ng after her son was murdered in 1983 and she decided to take = up=20 prison ministry. Mrs. Kirkendall said she was having problems with = her=20 husband, had been raped and had no one to communicate with when = she began=20 writing letters to Ng while he was imprisoned at Leavenworth, = Kan., for=20 weapons theft while serving in the Marine Corps.

When he was released from Leavenworth they decided to meet in = person.=20 She said she met Ng at the home of a friend in Shawnee, Oklahoma, = and the=20 next day picked him up in her car and drove to a motel. After they = had=20 sex, she said, she never saw him again and she felt later that it = had been=20 a mistake. Of the climactic meeting, she said, "It certainly = wasn't for=20 sex. It was my way of saying, I really care for you."

Chuck Farnham of San Jose, California, testified he wrote to Ng = a year=20 ago when he heard they had the common hobby of origami, the = Japanese art=20 of paper folding. He said they began to talk by phone and Ng = comforted him=20 over the death of his father. "Of all the people I know I was = surprised=20 that with all his problems he had this genuine concern about what = I was=20 going through."

Juan Corona = (25)=20 Born in 1934, Corona moved to Yuba City, California in the = early=20 50's as a migrant worker. There the Mexican national established = himself=20 as a family man and labor contractor, that is, until he was = charged with=20 hacking twenty-five men to death. His handiwork was uncovered on = May 19,=20 1971, by a Japanese farmer touring the peach orchard where = Corona's labor=20 crew was working. Most of the victims were drunken transients and = migrant=20 workers who no one missed. Corona, a burly father of four, was = linked to=20 the murders through a couple of receipts found in the clothing of = two of=20 the dead.

Most of the victims were stabbed or hacked to death, and bore = signs of=20 homosexual assaults, which lead people to believe that the killer = could be=20 Juan's openly gay brother. In 1970, a young Mexican's scalp was = sliced=20 open with a machete, in the cafe run by Natividad. The victim = pressed=20 charges agains Natividad, trying to get $250,000.00 in damages. = Natividad=20 fled to Mexico, and the case was left unsolved.

During his trial the defense tried to place the blame on = Natividad,=20 however there was no evidence placing him in the area at the time = of the=20 rampage. The jury deliberated for 45 hours before convicting him = on=20 multiple counts of murder. A month later Juan was sentenced to 25=20 consecutive terms of life imprisonment. While in prison, Corona = lost his=20 eye when he was attacked by four inmates. Currently Juan resides = at=20 Corcoran State Prison, where he is said to pace the yard = obsessively=20 mumbling to himself. In March, 1999, Corona was attacked by = prisoners when=20 several inmates invaded the recreation yard of prison's protective = unit.=20 Corona, now 65, is said to be sick and suffering from dementia. = During the=20 security breach, the ransacking prisoners also smashed Chales = Manson's=20 acoustic guitar. Prison officials said Corona sustained minor=20 injuries.

Marcel Petiot = (24+)=20 While in medical school Marcel was already considered a = thief. As a=20 young doctor he was no better. It is believed that he killed three = of his=20 patients in Villanueve, France. Forced to leave the area, he moved = to=20 Paris where he continued his career as a swindler and a crook. = During WW2,=20 Doctor Petiot saw a golden opportunity to make lots of money. He = bought a=20 house in Rue Lesueur and customized it to become a sound-proof = killing=20 machine. There he killed up to 63 people, mostly Jews and others = trying to=20 escape the Nazis. The crafty Doctor told his victims that he was a = member=20 of the French Resistance and was able to arrange for their safe = passage to=20 South America for a steep fee. After receiving the money the = doctor gave=20 his victims a lethal injection saying it was a "vaccination" = against=20 foreign diseases. He would then lead them to a sound-proof room = where he=20 told them to wait for their Resistence escort. By then the poison = would=20 take over, the good doctor enjoyed watching their deaths through = specially=20 built peep-holes.

A thorough annihilator, he would mutilate the corpses and drop = them=20 into a lime pit. Later he started incinerating his ever increasing = pile of=20 dead. In early 1944 he was arrested and held briefly when he = choked the=20 neighborhood with the fetid smell of burning corpses coming from = his=20 incinerator. Policemen called to the scene found 27 mutilated = bodies in=20 the basement which, he said, were Nazis killed by the Resistance. = Claiming=20 to merely be doing his patriotic duty he convinced the cops to let = him go.=20 Free again, Marcel promptly disappeared.

After the war Parisians still remembered the stacks of bodies = found in=20 the Doctor's home. A newspaper accused Petiot of being a Nazi = sympathizer=20 and that the dead were patriots killed for the Gestapo. Wanting to = clear=20 his name the doctor sent a letter to the papers claiming that the = Nazis=20 had set him up and planted the bodies in his basement.

He was arrested again in October 1944 and charged with 24 = murders.=20 During his trial he claimed to have killed up to 63 enemies of = France. No=20 one believed his ties to the Resistance. He was found guilty on = all counts=20 and sentenced to death. The deadly doctor was guillotined on May = 26,1946.=20 It is widely believed that Marcel killed many more and dumped = corpses into=20 the Seine. Authorities believe that Petiot was also responsible = for=20 several dismembered bodies found in Bois de Boulogne near Paris in = 1942.=20

Bela Kiss (24) = A=20 Hungarian serial killer, Bela's exploits were immortalized in a = play by=20 the surrealist poet Antonin Artaud called 23. In 1912, = after Bela=20 moved with his wife to the village of Czinkota, she started having = an=20 affair. Soon the lovers disappeared and Bela told neighbors that = they had=20 eloped. The deadly cuckold then started collecting 55-gallon metal = drums.=20 He told the village constable that they were filled with gasoline = as a=20 precaution for the coming war.

In 1914 Bela was drafted into the military and sent to the = battlefield.=20 By 1916 news had returned to the village that Bela died in combat. = When=20 soldiers passed through Czinkota looking for fuel, the constable=20 remembered the drums of gasoline in the Kiss household. When the = soldiers=20 opened the drums they were startled by the discovery of 24 corpses = preserved in alcohol. Apparently Bela, calling himself Hoffman, = placed=20 personal adds in newspapers describing himself as a "lonely = widower=20 seeking female companionship." Those who answered were promptly = garroted=20 and stuffed into 55-gallon drums. Not surprisingly, two of the = corpses=20 found were those of his wife and her lover.

After the gruesome discovery, authorities traveled to the = hospital were=20 Bela died. There they were told that the Bela that died there was = a young=20 man. Apparently Bela had switched identities with one of the dying = on the=20 battlefield and was able to escape. There have been subsequent = sightings=20 of him in Budapest and persistent rumors have placed him in New = York=20 working as a janitor. But in Hungary he is remembered as the one = who got=20 away.

Helene = Jegado (23+)=20 Born in Brittany, France, in 1803, Helene once complained, = "Wherever I go,=20 people died." Sure they did. Because she enjoyed poisoning them. = As a=20 teenager, she started her career as a domestic and started = experimenting=20 with poison. Eventually she wiped out the family of seven for whom = she was=20 working. Most of her subsequent employers suffered the same fate.=20 Curiously, no one suspected her of any wrongdoing because of her = pious=20 demeanor.

In 1831, after killing one too many families and fearing = arrest, she=20 joined a nunnery and took her vows. There she was suspected of = offing=20 several sisters before renouncing God and returning to her job as = a=20 domestic. As before, people started dying in her wake. Strangely = she kept=20 getting hired for new jobs.

She laid off the arsenic between 1841 to 1849 but then started = dipping=20 into it again. After two deaths in the household where she was = working=20 police started suspecting her after her overtly defensive manner = during a=20 routine questioning. Furthermore, traces of arsenic were found in = the=20 bodies of the most recent victims as well as many of her former = employers.=20 However, Helene never admitted her guilt, In 1851 she was = guillotined just=20 the same for her wave of terror.

Ted Bundy = (22+) The=20 Picasso of the serial killing community. Ted was handsome, = charming,=20 intelligent, self-assured, with a brilliant future, and deadlier = than a=20 rattlesnake. Using his good looks, he was able to invisibly abduct = and=20 kill his victims and continue with his seemingly charmed life. = From early=20 1974 to early 1978, the stranger called "Ted" stalked young women = on=20 college campuses, at shopping malls, in apartment buildings and = grade=20 schools in Washington, Oregon, Utah, Idaho, Colorado and finally = Florida.=20

This law student and Young Republican liked to wear an arm = sling to=20 appear vulnerable and get women to help him with his groceries. = Once he=20 lured his victims to the door of his car he would bludgeon them = and take=20 them away to privately enjoy their death. He favored killing = pretty,=20 dark-haired cheerleader types. He would attack his prey with blunt = objects=20 and was fond of raping and biting them. The bite marks on one of = his=20 victims were used as evidence against him at his trial in Florida. =

As a teen, Bundy was shy and sensitive. At a Seattle crisis = center, he=20 counseled the depressed, the alcoholic, the suicidal. He graduated = with a=20 degree in psychology from the University of Washington in 1972, = designed a=20 program for dealing with habitual criminals and wrote a pamphlet = on rape=20 for the King County crime commission.

Although no one knows for sure how many women Bundy killed, his = first=20 victim is believed to be Mary Adams, 18, whose battered body was = found in=20 her Seattle bedroom on January 4, 1974. In the next year and a = half,=20 police investigated several disappearances and killings of women = in the=20 West, some of them since linked to Bundy.

He was arrested in August 1975 and convicted in March 1976 of=20 kidnapping Carol DaRonch in Utah. That fall, he was charged with = killing a=20 Michigan nurse in Aspen, Colorado. On December 30, 1977, after a = previous=20 failed attempt, Ted escaped from the Denver court house through a = window=20 while awaiting trial. He relocated to Tallahassee, Florida, near = Florida=20 State University where he perpetrated his blood-soaked "Guernica" = of=20 crime. In January 15, 1978, he set forth on a night of butchery = and killed=20 two girls, Margaret Bowmanand Lisa Levy, and wounded two others, = Karen=20 Chandler and Kathy Kleiner, in and around the Chi Omega sorority = house in=20 Tallahassee.

Two weeks later, on February 9, he stole a van and killed = 12-year-old=20 Kimberly Leach who she abducted outside her school in Lake City, = Florida,=20 for which, eventually, he was fried. Poor Kimberly's body was = found in a=20 pig trough next to a plaid jacket that was not Ted's. She was = buried in a=20 cemetery near a Purina plant under a heart-shaped tombstone with = her=20 picture on it. Two weeks later, on February 15, Ted was arrested = after he=20 was spotted by David Lee, a Pensacola policeman, in the stolen VW = van.=20

Ted defended himself in trials in Utah, Colorado and Florida as = the=20 police tried to put together a trail of dead girls leading to him. = During=20 his various trials, a very self-possessed Ted Bundy defended = himself=20 garnishing praise and a legion of female admirers. After 11 years = of=20 trials and appeals, then-Florida Gov. Bob Martinez signed the = final death=20 warrant against Bundy on Jan. 17, 1989. Ted Bundy was electrocuted = on=20 January 24, 1989 at Florida State Prison.

On the night before his execution, Bundy talked of suicide, = recalled=20 Bill Hagmaier, chief of the FBI's National Center for the Analysis = of=20 Violent Crimes. "We had some discussions about morality and the = taking of=20 another life and his concerns about trying to explain to God about = his=20 actions," Hagmaier added. For his last meal he had steak, eggs, = hash=20 browns and coffee.

On September 20. 1999, Ted Bundy's mom held a news conference = to say=20 her son didn't commit his first murder at age 14; but the mother=20 8-year-old Ann Marie Burr of Tacoma believes he did. "I resent the = fact=20 that everybody in Tacoma thinks just because he lived in Tacoma he = did=20 that one too, way back when he was 14," said his mother Louise = Bundy.=20 However, Burrs and several investigators believe young Bundy stole = Ann=20 Burr from her bed on Aug. 31, 1961, and killed her.

Bundy denied involvement in Ann's death up until his execution = in=20 Florida in 1989. In 1986, he wrote to the Burrs, saying, "I do not = know=20 what happened to your daughter Ann Marie. I had nothing to do with = her=20 disappearance. "You said she disappeared Aug. 31, 1961. At the = time I was=20 a normal 14-year-old boy. I did not wander the streets late at = night. I=20 did not steal cars. I had absolutely no desire to harm anyone. I = was just=20 an average kid."

Arnfinn = Nesset (22+)=20 The deadliest Norwegian of the Archives. A balding, mild mannered = nursing=20 home administrator, Arnfinn is believed to have slaughtered up to = 138=20 patients over a 20-year nursing career. In 1977 Arnfinn became the = director of the Orkdal Valley Nursing Home. As he took his post, = an=20 unusual number of patients started dying.

No one suspected anything until 1981 when an employee noticed = the=20 purchase of a large amount of curacit, a derivative of the = poisonous=20 curare used as a muscle relaxant.

Police brought Arnfinn, the man in charge of purchasing the = curacit, in=20 for questioning. First he claimed he bought the drug to kill a = pack of=20 wild dogs around the nursing home. Then, inexplicably, he started=20 confessing to killing 27 patients. At one point he exclaimed "I've = killed=20 so many I'm unable to remember them all." In 1983 the lethal = administrator=20 was convicted of 22 murders. He was handed a 21-year sentence, the = maximum=20 allowed by Norwegian law. Last we heard from him, Arfinn changed = his name,=20 became a born-again Christian, and back on the streets.

Earl Nelson = (22+)=20 This Bible quoting drifter killed mostly landladies of boarding = houses.=20 After killing them he stuffed them under his bed before going to = sleep.=20 Dubbed the "Dark Strangler" and later "Gorilla Murderer" for his = large,=20 powerful hands. He is known to have committed twenty-two murders = and was=20 suspected of at least three more. He was captured and hanged in = Canada on=20 January 13, 1928. As he stood with the noose on his neck he told=20 spectators "I stand innocent before God and man. I forgive those = who have=20 wronged me and ask forgiveness of those I have injured. God have = mercy!"=20

Since 1986 South African authorities had been stumped by the = growing=20 body count of young boys of mixed race appearing dead around Cape = Town. At=20 one point they asked for help from the Interpol and the FBI. = Robert=20 Ressler, the retired FBI expert who coined the term serial = killer=20 was called in to develop a psychological profile of the killer. = With=20 Ressler's profile in hand and the sharp work of South Africa's = leading=20 profiler, Dr. Micki Pistorious, authorities where able to nab = their=20 suspect. Police think Simons, a very well-educated man who speaks = seven=20 languages, is the "Station Strangler," South Africa's most = notorious=20 serial killer. I an eight-year murder spree, the "Strangler" is = believed=20 to have killed 21 boys and a young man, all of mixed-race.

His moniker comes from having found many of his victims in = train=20 stations. Most were later found in shallow graves around Cape Town = after=20 being sodomized and strangled. One body was found with a note that = read:=20 "One more, many more in store." Elroy, his final victim, was last = seen=20 boarding a train with Simons at Cape Town's Strand train station. = His body=20 was found 10 days later with his hands tied behind his back. = According to=20 police, Simons claimed his brother, who was murdered in 1991, was = living=20 inside him. He also started hearing voices after his brother = sodomized him=20 that ordered him to kill.

Carl Panzram = (21)=20 Not from the "Mister Nice Guy" file. The most unrepentant killer = of them=20 all. Carl started his criminal career by getting arrested at age = eight for=20 drunk and disorderly behavior. It was downhill ever since. His = killing=20 spree spanned two continents. While in Africa he hired eight = blacks to=20 help him hunt crocodiles. Instead, he killed his hired hands, = sodomized=20 their corpses and fed them to the hungry reptiles. He boasted of=20 committing thousands of robberies, larcenies, arsons and having = sodomized=20 a thousand men.

Panzram had received a 20-year prison sentence for burglaries = and was=20 sent to a federal prison at Fort Leavenworth Prison, Kansas, in = 1928.=20 There, he began to write his memoirs of sodomy and murder, and he = beat a=20 prison laundry room worker to death. Panzram quickly confessed to = the=20 killing, asked to be hanged and got his wish. When an anti-death = penalty=20 group tried to save him, he was quoted as saying, "I wish you all = had one=20 neck, and I had my hands on it." On September 5, 1930, Panzram got = his=20 death wish. Mean to the very end, while on the scaffold Panzram = snapped at=20 his executioner, "Hurry it up, you bastard. I could hang a dozen = men while=20 you're fooling around."

In his book Panzram blamed the prison system and society for = turning=20 him into a monster. He wrote that he was "not the least bit sorry" = for the=20 murders, rapes and robberies he committed during his lifetime. In = 1970,=20 his memoirs were published and later became the basis of a movie,=20 Killer: A Journal of Murder.

Thierry = Paulin &=20 Jean-Thierry Mathurin (20+) Known as the "Old Ladies = Killer" and=20 the "Monster of Montmarte" these two men terrorized elderly = Parisian=20 ladies in the district of Montmarte from 1984 to 1987. Paulin, a = native of=20 Guyana, was a black transvestite drug addict with dyed platinum = blonde=20 hair. His boy toy, Mathurin -- a waiter from the Caribbean island = of=20 Martinique -- was eventually charged as an accomplice in nine of = the 21=20 sadistic slayings committed by the transvestite killer.

The first victim was Anna Barbier-Ponthus, 83. She was found = bound,=20 gagged and beaten to death on October 5, 1984. On October 9, 1984, = firefighters discovered the body of Suzanne Foucault, 89, bound = and with a=20 plastic bag wrapped over her head. On November 5, Iona Seigaresco, = 71, was=20 found bound with electrical chord and beaten to death in her flat = on=20 Boulevard de Clichy.

Confirming police suspicion that a serial killer was praying on = older=20 women in the Montmarte district, on November 7 Alice Bena=EFm, 84, = was found=20 dead in her apartment. The next day, Marie Choy, 80, was found = dead next=20 door. She was bound with steel wire and was forced to drink causic = soda=20 before being beaten to death. The day after Maria Mico-Diaz, 75, = was found=20 bound, gagged and was nearly hacked in two with 60 stab wounds. =

The similarities of all cases were quickly determined by = police. All=20 victims were old women ranging from 60 to 95, living alone in = Montmarte.=20 In all cases, they were attacked at the moment they opened their = door on=20 their way back from the market. Inside their apartments, the women = were=20 tortured, bound with electrical chord, gagged and beaten, = strangled,=20 stabbed or smothered to death. The apartment was then ransacked in = search=20 of money and other valuables.

The frantic Parisian police -- overwhelmed by public outcries = and a=20 terrified citizenry -- went into overdrive and arrested 60 junkies = and=20 assorted perverts hoping to crack the case. At the time Paulin and = Mathurin left Paris and went to Toulosse where they hung out in = gay clubs,=20 did tons of coke and ended up separating after a fight.

Back in Paris Paulin severely beat his drug dealer who tried to = cheat=20 him. The man called the cops and got Paulin arrested and sentenced = to 16=20 months in jail. Even though authorities had latent prints of = Paulin from=20 several crime scenes, they were not able link him to the string of = deaths=20 terrifying Montmarte.

In 1987 he was freed for good behavior and was back on the = streets drug=20 dealing. In a pre Dennis Rodman fashion statement, he started = wearing=20 earrings and dyed his hair platinum blonde. Never one to slack, by = November he started killing old ladies again at his usual = breakneck pace.=20 The weekend of his 24th birthday he killed three old ladies. = Another=20 grandmother he left for dead was able to give the cops a = description of=20 her assailant.

Obviously, a black man with platinum blonde hair and earrings = was not=20 hard to find. On December 1 a cop recognized him on the street and = arrested him. Once in custody Paulin panicked and fingered his old = pal=20 Jean-Thierry Mathurin as an accomplice.

While in jail at Fleury-M=E9rogis. Paulin felt like a star. He = collected=20 every newspaper clipping about him and proudly showed them off to = other=20 inmates. Paulin knew he had AIDS since 1985. On March 10, 1989, = his health=20 took a turn to the worse. He died the night of April 16 of AIDS = related=20 complications. His trial was never concluded so he was never found = guilty=20 of the crimes he committed. However, there is no doubt in the = minds of=20 French authorities that he was the "Monster of Montmartre."=20
