Letters to the Crime Archives

my name is lisa and i am a student of human behavior. serial killers to be more specific. i have only corresponded with one killer...David Brown who had his daughter, Cinnamon Brown, kill his wife. i am very interested in learning about these people and trying to figure out what makes them the way that they are. It isn't conventional insanity.

i found your web page fascinating. i had gone to the web and typed in Robin Gecht, and found your page. please let me know how i can correspond with some of these people that you mentioned in your page (obviously, some are dead). i have always wanted to write my thesis about the laws that govern us today on insanity. the fact that there are men (and women) out there who are capable of committing such horrific crimes, and yet in the eyes of the law are found sane. there has to be a middle ground.

i realize that these people are sociopaths, and for the most part are functioning individuals in society, however, somewhere along the way they veered off in their thinking and in their reasoning ability. you can read about these people forever, but the only way to truly understand is to get to know them personally.

ALL YOU MANSON LOVING FREAKS CAN SUCK MY FAT DICK

I am 18 years of age and I feel a strong force that is I believe in my blood I feel compelled to kill. I like the styLe of David Berkowitz I too desire to use a .44 caliber weapon my choice is the Colt Anaconda. I would like to kill women lots of them pretty ones with long dark hair. Ted Bundy is also one of my favorites. Do you rember the "Trash Bag Murders"? I thought that those were quite interesting considering I live so close to Redondo Beach. I figure I wont or try not to kill until I am mature enough to do the things that I desire so much to do. In a couple of years i'll have my way.

SOMETIMES I WONDER WHY PEOPLE HAVE TROUBLE SLEEPING AT NIGHT. AS I READ WHAT YOU OFFER THE AMERICAN PUBLIC (COMPUTER PUBLIC), WHAT YOU PUT AT THEIR FINGER TIPS, I ONLY PRAY THAT THIS TYPE OF BOGUS BS IS REMOVED FROM THE NET. HOW CAN A LAW ABIDING CITIZEN WANT TO HAVE PART OF THIS. MEANING YOU. YOU PUT IT TOGETHER. I UNDERSTAND THE 1ST AMENDMENT. YOU WANT PEOPLE TO SEND KILL MESSAGES. WHAT IS WRONG WITH SOCIETY.

If Charles Manson is ever let out into society, hide your children!!! I think we may have another Hitler on our hands. Rebecca Sterling

Early childhood trauma can be found in most future SKs. You probably know most of SKs were adopted or brought up by surrogate parents Their deep anger and hate toward women could be traced to their upbringing. A lot of SKs were actualy "killing" their mothers,like the two Eds, Gein and Kemper.

I am Sergei Shukunda, a researcher at the University of Kazan, Russia. I am now doing some research on what we call "extremist sects" in Russia. The project has as its aim some recommendations for the government departments, mass media, parents and the general public on how to avoid being involved in the practice of the reactionary cults that are similar to the Order of the Solar Temple in Europe or Aum sect in Japan or Jim Jones's or David Koresh's groups in the US.

This topic has become important in Russia as we now have a lot of totalitarian sects that involve young people, brainwash them and take their property from them. Examples are Maria Devy Kristos sect or Vessarion group. There are lots of suffering caused by the activities of such groups, because families are broken, children leave schools, run away with their gurus and sometimes commit suicide. The wave of such religious extremism is caused by the overall instability in the country and the absence of experience in dealing with religious extremists.

The new freedom of religion that Russian now has is not founded on the legislation that would not allow impostors of all kinds to steal the souls of young people. I think it would make sense to study the experience of a country that for 2 centuries learned how to compromise freedom with common sense and the rule of law. Although the US has had its own problems with religious extremism I think this country must have some mechanisms in the form of proper legislation, public organizations or the like that protect people.

I am sorry for this long introduction. Now I would like to state my request: if possible, could you give me the names of US universities where extremist cults are studied or the names of particular researchers who do this kind of research (e-mail addresses) so I could get in touch with them directly and try to find out some more information on the subject?

Richard Ramirez is a man possesed by his own hell. His only means of escaping is to kill.

Richard Chase! In some ways, my favorite murderer. When he was released from psychiatric care his parents were aware of his delusions and misguided behavior, but they were ashamed of him and decided the best thing to do was to pay his rent for him and hope...to not think about it.

His father made a cryptic comment to the effect that Richard's idea that he was being poisoned by his mother might in fact be due to something she did. Maybe she put soap in his food and told him it was poison...something. He was a truly deranged individual--the only "disordered offender" *I* know of-- who committed murder like a monster in a movie: he'd go out and move house to house, look in people's windows; eventually he started shooting in the windows.

His grand finale was to enter a house with a woman and child. He shot the woman and infant, cut the mother open and drank some of her blood out of a yogurt cup, shit in her mouth then took the baby with him. What is really almost funny is that everything he did progressed gradually but inexorably...there were really alarming "signals" that the neighbors didn't react to with enough probity, one might say...

They saw him for several days before his big spree walking in and out of his apartment, always dressed in the same red parka and always *carrying a shotgun*!! Beyond the pale even in Sacramento! But nobody called the cops or anything. And the way the man looked was like a total lunatic, I mean this wasn't simply a man carrying a shotgun around (which would be discomforting enough) but a really loony looking character, long unkempt hair, very spooky eyes.

One of the last William Friedkin movies was based on this case, but Friedkin and the screenwriters did a total hack job on the project. They turned Richard into a "Hannibal Lecter" style criminal (please, enough of the "brilliant, artistic" serial murderer/cannibal model in movies, glorifying serial murder as if it were somehow "intelligent". It's the fucking Nazi model anyway...

William Friedkin used to be a great director and produced the great homoerotic dark camp classic "To Live and Die in L.A." every since the man is turning to shit...was this movie called "Outrage" or maybe I'm thinking of "Outbreak" which was such an incredibly shitty adaptation of "The Hot Zone"... Anyway, it totally sucks.

A YOUNG BRIGHT STUDENT OF A MIDDLE CLASS FAMILY WHO WAS ONLY 25YRS OLD WAS BRAINWASHED BY A GROWING CULT IN INDIA. HE WAS STUDYING FOR HIS CA EXAMS AND WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO GETTING A JOB IN ORDER TO SUPPORT HIS WIDOWED MOTHER. BECAUSE OF THE RELIGIOUS FAMILY VALUES HE WAS PRAYING TO GOD TO MAKE HIM STRONG (AS WE ALL DO) SO HE CAN DO HIS DUTIES TOWARDS HIS RESPONSIBILITY , BUT UNFORTUNATELY HE GOT IN TOUCH WITH WRONG CULT WHO TOTALLY BRAINWASHED AND MENTALLY RETARDED HIM TO LEAVE HIS HOME AND SERVE A SELF PROCLAIMED GOD SANT ASHA RAM.

HE WAS GIVEN SWEET TALKS ABOUT SPIRITUALISM FOR SOMETIME AND THEN WAS BRAINWASHED OF HIS MEMORY AND INTERESTS FOR LIFE AND HIS SUBCONSCIOUS MIND WAS PUT INTO BELIEVING ONE INDIVIDUAL AS GOD AND SERVE HIS NEEDS. NOW HIS MIND HAS BEEN PROGRAMMED TO WORK FOR THE CULT AND RECRUIT MORE INNOCENT PEOPLE TO MAKE ASHA RAM AS A LORD FOR THEM. HE WILL DO ANYTHING FOR THE CULT, AND CULT LEADER ASHA RAM AND HIS SON NARAYAN SWAMI ARE MINTING MONEY AND RUINING INNOCENT INDIAN FAMILIES.

HINDU RELIGION DOESN'T TEACHES YOU TO LIES, BETRAY, AND TO PUT YOUR FAMILY INTO TROUBLE & DEVASTATED SITUATION INSTEAD HINDU CULTURE TEACHES YOU TO MAKE PARENTS PROUD OF YOU BY DOING GOOD FOR THE COMMUNITY AND HELPING OTHER PEOPLE AND THE COUNTRY TO GROW. TACTIC THIS CULT IS USING IS BY MARKETING THEMSELVES THROUGH AUDIO CASSETTES VIDEO CASSETTES SEMINARS LECTURES WITH THEIR ILLEGAL FINANCIAL RESOURCES AND UNACCOUNTED DONATIONS FROM INDIA & OVERSEAS. THEY INVITE YOU FIRST POLITELY TO JOIN THE FUNCTIONS AND THEN IF THEY SEE YOU HAVE MONEY THEN THEY PUT PRESSURE ON YOU TO DONATE MONEY FOR NEEDY PEOPLE (WHICH EVENTUALLY GOES TO CULT LEADER), THEN BY READING BOOKS, AND AUDIO'S OF CULT YOU ARE IN THE SPIRIT OF SERVING CULT IN THE NAME OF GOD, BUT ONCE YOU ARE IN IT THEN THEY START USING YOU FOR THEIR PERSONNEL ILLEGAL ACTIVITIES WHICH ARE ORDERED BY CULT. ALL THESE SAME TACTICS WERE USED BY KORESH IN TX, AND RAJNEESH IN OREGON. AND LOOK AT THE RESULTS NOT TO MENTION CHANDRA SWAMY.

ASHA RAM'S CULT WAS SAYING WE ARE NOT HOLDING AJAY SHARMA HERE, BUT IN HIS MIND SO MUCH OF THE CULT'S MATERIAL HAS BEEN FILLED THAT HE CAN'T EVEN THINK OF ANYTHING ELSE INSTEAD OF THIS SELF CLAIMED GOD. HIS FAMILY HAS BEEN DISCONNECTED FROM HIM AS A PRISONER HIS FAMILY HAS BEEN THREATENED TO GET SUED IF THEY TRY TO TAKE HIM AWAY FROM CULT ACTIVITIES. BUT WHEN SOMEONE OUTSIDE APPROACHES ASHA RAM'S CULT TO TALK TO AJAY SHARMA THEY HIDE HIM AWAY IN THEIR SO MANY ASHRAMS IN INDIA. HIS FAMILY IS NEVER PUT IN TOUCH WITH HIM, INSTEAD THEY HAVE BEEN THREATENED USING FOUL LANGUAGE AND SHOWING THE POWER ASHA RAM HAS OVER MILLION OF INNOCENT HARD WORKING PEOPLE. BECAUSE OF SO MUCH POWER OF ASHA RAM IN INDIA HIS FAMILY IS HELPLESS DEVASTATED BECAUSE THEY ARE UNABLE TO GET HELP FROM ANYONE. WE ARE WRITING YOU THIS APPEAL WITH VERY DESPERATE HEART TO SAVE SOMEONE'S LIFE WHICH IS GETTING RUINED IN FRONT OF SO MANY POWERFUL PEOPLE, WHO ARE JUST GIVING A SYMPATHY AND NOT DOING AN ACTION BECAUSE THIS IS NOT THEIR KID OR RELATIVE.

SINCE AJAY HAS BEEN IN THE ASHRAM HIS PHYSICAL HEALTH HAS BEEN AFFECTED, OF COURSE MENTALLY HE IS SICK FOR WHICH HE MIGHT NEED A GOOD DEPROGRAMMER FOR LONG TERM. POOR KID HAS BEEN MADE TO THINK THAT HE IS HAPPY AND SERVING GOD. HE HAS FOOLED BY ASHA RAM THAT YOU ARE SERVING GOD & YOUR FAMILY BY SERVING ME. ASHA RAM IS A LEADER LIVES IN SUCH BIG HOUSES AND HE JUST GOES AWAY TO SILENT PLACES INSTEAD PEOPLE WHO WORK FOR HIM ARE WORKING SO MANY HOURS AND DON'T EVEN GET PROPER FOOD. INSIDE THE ASHRAM. SADAK HAS BEEN BRAINWASHED AGAINST THE FAMILY AND OUTSIDE WORLD. SADAK IS A VICTIM BY A ANOTHER SADAK. HIS FAMILY HAS BEEN CRYING FOR HIM, INSTEAD ASHA RAM PEOPLE TOLD IN THE BEGINNING THAT AJAY IS IN THE ASHRAM WITH PERMISSION FROM FAMILY. ASHA RAM CHARGES LAKHS OF RUPEES FOR HOURS OF SPEECH IN THE NAME OF ASHRAM AND HIS SPEECH., BUT NO ONE KNOWS HOW MUCH MONEY HE JUST TAKES AWAY AS GIFTS AND HIDE THEM WITH HIS POLITICIANS FRIENDS AND OVERSEAS FOLLOWERS.

PLEASE SAVE A RELIGIOUS HARD WORKING FAMILY BY PUTTING PRESSURE ON ASHA RAM TO LEAVE AJAY SHARMA ALONE. WE ARE UNABLE TO FIGHT AGAINST HIM AS YOU KNOW BECAUSE OF HIS FINANCIAL POWER , INFLUENCE OVER GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS, AND THOUSANDS OF FOLLOWERS BECAUSE OF RELIGIOUS IMAGE . IF AJAY WAS NOT INVOLVED WITH THIS CULT HE MIGHT HAVE FINISHED HIS CA AND WOULD HAVE GOTTEN A JOB AND WOULD HAVE STRUGGLE FOR LIFE INSTEAD OF THINKING OF SUICIDAL ATTEMPTS AND GET BEAT UP AND TORTURED BY CULT OF ASHA RAM AND PUT HIS FAMILY TO THIS DISASTROUS SITUATION IN LIFE, THAT THEIR SON IS IN HANDS OF A CULT WHO ARE USING HIM AS A TOY AND GET THREATENED AND LIVE A LIFE OF HELPLESS VICTIM IN THE NAME OF GOD FROM A CREATURE OF GOD.

I was looking through your database on Serial Killers and ran across a listing about Micijah & Wiley Harpe, killers from the 1790's. This is great information for me, they are in my family history. Is there anyway to contact the historian Paul I. Wellman? I would very much like to get in contact with him ASAP! Any info would be great!

Did you hear about the guy who put an ass in his oven and roasted it. What was he thinking about? You can be sure, I will spend the whole night trying to figure it out.

I am seeking information about a killer of children in Michigan in the late 60's to early 70's, I think. I think he was nicknamed the Babysitter. There was something about him having fed a child chicken after a mother went on Tv and pleaded for the child's return and said the child liked fried chicken. This killer was known for leaving dead children, usually boys I believe, with ironed clothing and neatly arranged by the sides of roads. I think he strangled the kids, not sure if there was homosexuality involved.

oh wow. i just read your serial killers page. it took awhile but it was worth it. pretty interesting stuff, although i'm not gonna kill anyone i can certainly identify with a lot of what was going on.

"Some people say that once every 24 hours light triumphs over darkness. I like to think that once every 24 hours darkness triumphs over light."

Read your amusing piece on John Lindley Frazier, one problem, he didn't do it. He didn't murder the Ohta family, there were three killers that night. John was framed for the eye surgeons death. It was a political set up, because the good eye doctor was a respected resident of Santa Cruz. Dig deeper, the police were chasing 3 men that night from the scene of the crime. There was no way John could have committed all of the murders in the allotted amount of time. Oh, and you might check into that phony search of the rabbit hutch for the gun. The second search, not the first, found the weapon. And while your investigating, check out Bert and his ties to drugs and gambling. He was in so deep, he would've traded his own mothers name for that reward. John did not kill the Ohta family.

I think it all comes down to an estrogen imbalance. I was twelve at the time Sylvia Seegrist lost her shit at the Springfield Mall. I had gone there to get some Halloween stuff and have a crepe at the Magic Pan with my mother when this camo-clad chic comes through the mall entrance we had just come through. I wouldn't have noticed her if it were not for the fact she was toting what looked like a .22 rifle and was wearing a winter cap on an unseasonably warm October day. The mall had a real bad reputation for years afterwards.

The next night I was out trick-or-treating as a Camouflaged Ninja, and every house I stopped at thought I was distastefully dressing as Miss Seegrist, but it was just a coincidence. So, at any rate, she not only ruined my day at the mall, but she screwed up my Halloween, too. She was a real tweeker, I usually prefer my mass-murderers to have a bit more style about them, she didn't even say anything too cool at the time. Pretty lame, she certainly wasn't a George Jo Hennard.

Your pages are wonderful and always give me something of an outlet. I can't stop coming back. Every time I read some idiot's post... I feel like screaming...Oh lucifer... whine whine whine. Is that all these people know how to do? I have to get the following out of my system.

"This page is so tasteless it makes me sick." No, it isn't tasteless, my lovely little idiot, it's informatory.. It doesn't seek to glamorize, it seeks to inform. If it's so sick, exactly what were you looking for when you found it? Barbie's House of Toys? "In the meantime, I would appreciate if you kept your "amusing" comments to your FUCKING self!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I would also appreciate it if you would keep *your* "amusing" comments to yourself... Practice what you preach.. which leads me to: "For the record: I am an advocate of freedom of expression on the "net" and an avid supporter of free speech. This, in turn, gives ME the freedom to express my opinions as to the ignorant(and often misguided or misinformed) individuals." Oh, how open-minded of you... Honey, it's only your narrow-minded view that these people are "ignorant and often misguided or misinformed." Yet, you treat it as if it were fact. Don't think so highly of yourself, and maybe your comments will be a little bit more open to serious consideration. "PS If any of the "big words" are giving you any trouble..." big words? the one word you have managed to show your mastery of in that baseless rant is "fucking." Oh how educated! Simply extraordinary. Your parents must be so proud of you, as am I.

Now, for the rest of the people who give constructive criticism without exploding like the aforementioned visitors, I appreciate their calm and understanding manner, whether or not they agree with me... but those who explode, trying to force me into their views deserve to be flogged, for lack of a better word. It's this type of preaching that I loathe and will fight back against... Jehovah's Witnesses and "evangelical" Christians especially. They have to realize that they are not going to change somebody's mind my being so frantic and rushed, almost manic, in delivering their opinions. It doesn't help and it doesn't work, it only displays their lack of eloquence and thoughtfulness. Of course I realize that my dream society, sans ignorance, will not happen, but I can at least hope that those with a surface knowledge of a subject don't attempt to preach it to others.

People this day and age are really pathetic. I think that this page is very informative, and I want to applaud your efforts and har work in making this page very interesting. It just makes me sick to see how people can be so shallow. I mean, why would anyone in their right mind pay money for a refrigerator that was previously used for housing body parts? Or better yet, pay homage to the obviously demented Dahmer estate and purchase it for an impressive amount of money.

Kudos to you and your team on THE bloodiest site on the net. It was so real, I could almost taste it! You are my hero. It takes a special person to create a resoure like this. My only wish is that I had thought of it first!!

Keep up with the awesome work, god knows there are enough of use busy little bees out there to keep you on your toes! Perhaps I too may one day grace the screens of thousand of twisted individuals like myself. That is if I get caught...

In case you hadn't already heard: Ottis Toole just died today or yesterday, in a prison hospital.

Tried to get somemore info on Rick Chase for you at my HS reunion but failed miserably. But I do remember a story about Richard. He was parked at McDonalds which was were we scored marijane cigarettes and he masturbated in his car and squirted it on the roof of his car.

I guess there's nothing that beats holding the smoking shotgun yourself..... But these pages are a good number two.

Thanks for being the only page out there listing Albert Fish. I picked up a paperback while on a road trip to Oregon some eight years ago depicting the man and his life. I thought it was ironic because I'm from the particular region in New York where the Fish political family has a long and distinguished public service record (the patriarch of the modern family, Hamilton Fish, passed recently)and I never knew anything about the twisted roots on the Fish family tree until I got way out west. I still have not seen a copy of this book for sale in New York. Is there anything else on him ? I'm interested because this man is said to have had every know psychological disorder known to man at the time of diagnosis, and to have been responsible for the labelling of then-new disorders. That's incredible.

Have you ever heard of a criminal in Victorian England that the press called "Spring-Heeled Jack ? I saw a period depiction of him once in the eighth grade, and have never been able to shake the image from my mind. It gave no description of his crime, but I think it was robbery and escape via impossibly high leaps and bounds over prison and courtyard walls. I 've been looking, but Jack the Ripper gets most of the attention for serial killers and criminals in that era. In fact, there's a page out there that you can find by putting "Jack the Ripper" in on Web Search (I use WebCrawler) that shows the photos of Jack's victims. If you download this, you'll want to click on "Victim's Page", and then click on the head shot of Catherine Eddowes for the most detailed photograph. It really hits you that history has romanticized a real fucking animal.

Something tells me this is very much tongue in cheek, albeit factual. This demented fascination/shockfest is disturbing, pretty much on the mark, and (please, God forgive me), funny. Funny in the way you do your synopsis. Funny because I have a similarly disturbing unofficial hobby - "weirdest ways people can die." Very unofficial. But the guy who was killed by his own bowling ball is fascinating. Or the woman swept away by a freak wave while scattering her suicide mom's ashes.

Okay, it's sick, like watching a freeway accident. Educational - yes. I did a term paper on Murder - methods and motives. I subsequently began dating a guy with a collection of books on serial killers. I quit dating him because I was unsure if he was murdering women vicariously.

I am a university student currently studying criminology and psychology. The extent of your research is remarkable, and has proved to be extremely useful. My only complaint comes from the addition of personal feelings toward the killers in the material. By referring to the subjects as coming "from hell," and regarding them as "white trash," you add a sense of unprofessionalism which takes away from your work. However, I would like to congratulate you on your efforts to provide information to the rest of the world. You are all greatly appreciated.

Aren't you a little worried that someday some sicko will say, "Gosh, mama, I hope some day I'm at the top of the Serial Killer Hit List," and use your site to rank his killings? I'd bet within the next year (or maybe it has already happened) you get a letter saying "watch me, I'll be number one" or something. There are many side-effects to your site, even though you do make fun of the killers (but they would be too stupid to understand it).

It makes me angry that we have become so desensitized to acts of violence. I feel like I'm the only person left who cares more about the victims of crime than their worthless murderers. I hate to be the one to fill in for the rest of the world, but it's true. They are worthless and should suffer for those they have made to suffer. It just goes to show how bad society has truly become when there are people praising killers and spitting on the memory of those slain. If this is the way people are, I am embarassed to be a human.

Heavens - I have seen lots of sites - but this one takes the cake.

With the total body count you could empty a small country, like Liechtenstein. Away from the material itself it is a good and professional designed page. I have seen others far off from being such well-engineered and I'm able to appreciate that. I guess it was a lot of work collecting all the facts, names, numbers and final results (living and dead). Do you still have a good sleep at nights ? No impact on your personal life? I wonder.

Today it's common to fear being killed by a mad killer just while entering a shop or crossing the street. Since I've seen the film 'Targets' by Peter Bogdanovich I always look on top of gas tanks, skyscrapers and clocktowers so not to give a sniper a good chance to blow my head off. And I don't go to drive-in cinemas. Anyway: I handed you URL over to a very cynic german satiric magazine - one of more or less splatter-type. They make weird stories about bloodsheds and massacres - but are sometimes too unrealistic. Your page - maybe - might help them to come back to reality. We will see. Or maybe a piano may fall on our head.

I'm a little imbalanced after reading your stuff. I drive home now. Reading a good book. Maybe 'Frankenstein' from Mary Shelley.

Good Night from Peter of Germany

I, like many other people share an interest in serial killers. I would like to study criminology in later years. Many of you are treating this seriously and realizing the trauma all of the killers victims went through. Some of you think it is humorous. I think you just sick. And for those of you who think of these killers as 'heroes' 'mentors' or 'idols', I suggest you find yourself some help before you too become involved in this crap. If you want to kill and torture many INNOCENT people just to earn yourself some glory because your not talented, fine. But the percentage of people who don't give-a-shit outways the percentage of people who care.......Think about it...

I don't care what your purpose was in making these pages. Reading the email from the idiots who oppose it in the "join the body count" area amused me. It's obvious you put a lot of work into them and I felt the need to congratulate you. I'm obsessed with blood, death, and serial killers and finding your page made me even more so.

There is no such expression as "lighten up" in the eyes of the family of a victim of a violent crime you piece of shit. If you care to express your views elsewhere, you are more than welcome to in other areas of the web . For example, there is a page I have discovered called "Web Is Mostly Shit", where I am sure you will be more than welcomed.

In the meantime, I would appreciate if you kept your "amusing" comments to your FUCKING self!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I often wonder if the line between fantasy and reality has been diminished to the point where people, like yourself, have lost touch with the fact that living beings have a right to exist without the pain and anguish of sick MTF'S being bestowed upon them. If you find my comments amusing, then you're right in line "pal"!

For the record: I am an advocate of freedom of expression on the "net" and an avid supporter of free speech. This, in turn, gives ME the freedom to express my opinions as to the ignorant(and often misguided or misinformed) individuals who constantly cloud the vision of others trying to obtain important information, data, or facts pertaining to certain crimes to possibly aide society in apprehending these individuals who commit senseless acts of violence toward innocent individuals.

Hardy-fucking har!

PS If any of the "big words" are giving you any trouble...

... check Webster's feeb!

I live in Santa Maria California, 26 miles from Tex Watson's home, the California Men's Colony in San Luis Obispo. I have taken tours of it and it's pretty freaky. The Atascadero State Hospital is 40 miles away from my house. I hear some horror stories about it too. I think Tex Does not get out for another 10 years... the victims right crowd will make sure of that. But if you want to hear him preach in the prison chapel you can go for services-- 9:30 A.M. every Sunday. I never been there but a friend of mine says it's pretty interesting hearing a lot of convicts talking about God's good graces and how your sins are forgiven. They say it's pretty strange to see a bunch of big men with tattoos singing gospel music. Oh, well this is what makes America great. Do you think their redemption is just an illusion to get out of the cell?

This page is so tasteless it makes me sick. I remember reading it before and you referred to Paul Bernardo as 'horny'. Please keep in mind that for some people studying serial killers isn't all Hollywood and fun. It is a job, and a gruesome one at that. When I look at crime scene photos of a child who has been raped and cannibalized or woman who has been sexually tortured and dissected, the last thing that I would call the killer would be 'horny'. You seem to glorify serial killers and act as though they are all in competition to see who can kill the most people. You are feeding their egos and giving them all the publicity they want. I hope you're happy to be satisfying them, I suppose you're lucky that you don't have to satisfy them the same way that their victims did, by dying in pain.

I was hoping to find more in-depth information on Randy Kraft. I thought I was shock-proof, but a guy who went after MARINES? Islamic Jihad had nothing on this guy. They needed explosives!

THERE. MY 556TH CAT I'VE KILLED THIS YEAR. I HATE FUCKING CATS. SATANIC LITTLE SHITS! ANYWAY, IS IT NATURAL TO BE SITTING IN A ROOM SURFING THE NET WITH HUNDREDS OF CATS HEADS STUCK ON YOUR WALL? FUCK KNOWS, FUCK CARES, AND FUCK DOES NOT LISTEN. EVEN THOUGH THAT I AM A CAT LOVER- I LOVE TO FUCKING RIP THEIR HEADS OFF.

I am not a fan but am interested in the subject of killings. I have read the book describing the Zodiac killings and after reading your serial killers archive I was deeply disappointed. You state that he 'threatened' to blow up a school bus. In the book it shows plans found and how he did it, YES he did. He blew up a bus killing the people on it. The bomb was set up to detect the time that the sun was not shining on it while the bus went over it and then exploded.

hey....this web page was really cool....and informative....That is true about these Cults... they are people who do not know what reality is anymore.....I do not favor the Death penalty... only in extreme cases such as Genocide....or Torturous Death...Actually I believe we can do without the Death Penalty....but man....these Serial Killers really want me to Reconsider....They are some sick puppies....

I hope you keep this updated.....I want more info on these Killers...

While reading John 8:24, I heard a quiet, powerful voice say, "I am that I am, now do you understand why the world's not interested in the truth?" this was in 1970.

Before going to sleep, one spring night in 1971, I heard a voice that sounded like a waterfall, shouting, "Strong is the Lord God who judges Babylon."

In the summer of 1972 I heard the waterfall voice say, "Hear o Israel hear, this one shall be free."

Late spring of 1973 found me witnessing a quiet, powerful voice say, "You alone have I seen righteous in your generation."

In the summer of 1992, I received a vision of heat and light at the city park in our town, and I heard the still small voice say, "It is finished," which is what Christ said at the Cross (John 19:30)

During the summer of 1993, after placing olive oil on my head in the configuration of a menorah (seven branched candlestick of orthodox Jewish faith, which represents the Seven Spirits of God), I heard the following words:

I have strengthened you on the bed of languishing, yet you are reluctant to praise me; I have given you visions and dreams, and yet you are slow to believe; I have prospered you, yet you rob me continually; I have spoken to you with the still, small voice and the voice of many waters, yet you have hardened your hearts; I have given you a pastor who faithfully brings forth my word, yet you speak against him, behind his back, thinking that I cannot hear you ; I have taken you to the banquet halls where my banner over you was love, yet you have hated and despised me; I have plucked some of you from the very fires, yet you do not return to thank me. The time approaches, in fact it is here, when sore punishment will strike those who have trodden my Son underfoot. Some of you are troubled by what your spiritual eyes have already seen. Strengthen what is ready to die, for I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy and I will have compassion on whom I choose to have compassion.

On may 28, 1995, while praying in tongues at Foodtown Plus on South Main Street, Bowling Green, Ohio, I heard a quiet presence say, with much indignation, "Put an end to the abortions, or I will put an end to your country."

On July 15, 1995, again while praying in tongues, I heard a quiet voice say, "I am feeding you manna from heaven.......eat and be satisfied .......continue praising my Son Jesus's name.......for I inhabit the praises of my people.......soon the wicked will be punished.......those who trust in me will be pleased.......those who fight against me will be ashamed."

On September 8, 1995, again praying in tongues, I received the following interpretation: "I am taking the cup of astonishment out of your hands.......I will compel your enemies, persecutors and oppressors to drink it instead.......they will drink and swallow down, and be as though they were not."

ALSO, why does it happen that no Scriptures have come to light that corroborate what Christ said in John 7:37-39?

Love your web pages. I've actually used it in a class I teach at Auburn University (Serial and Mass Murder- a very popular class to say the least). I am also writing a book on mass murder and I intend to cite your web page in the bibliography (if you have any objections to this please let me know). The book is probably about a year or so away from publication (I'm negotiating with publishers right now). Look forward to hearing from you.

I was very "happy" to see Jeff Lundgren on your list of killer cults. I say happy in quotes because...well how happy can you be with a sick individual like him. I was a police officer with Lakeland college (Kirtlands, main backup units) at the time and was there when the Avery family bodies were found. It was indeed a very disturbing moment in my life, but I am proud to say that I played a part in bringing this man to justice where he belongs.

I am not a sick person, but I don't know about you . Have you ever thought of stabbing someone to death? I would if they had done something to fucken hurt me. If they were innocent there would be no point, right? All murderers should be killed if they are caught, not given cable TV and an easy life. I can't even afford cable and the money I earn is going to comfort those sick bastards.

I must say that it is extremely rare to find a web page that is so informative and attention-grabbing as yours. I can honestly say that if there were half as many pages like yours out there on the web, there would be more people such as myself who would certainly spend more time net-surfing and checking out what are the new features presented over the Internet.

One suggestions that I would like to offer you in order for you to further improve your fantastic web site is that of the addition of an image gallery. I am aware that you currently possess a page in which exhibits various digitally constructed images containing mockingly grotesque and devilishly humorous portrayals of serial murderers, but I was thinking of something more along the lines of an image gallery that strictly deals with presenting images of mutilation and torture (products of the ravenous exploits of serial killers). I am uploading an example to you of what I have in mind. It is an image of the cannibal killer, Ed Gein's last known victim, Bernice Worden. You may or may not already possess this image within you collection, but if not I hope you enjoy it and take my proposal into consideration.

Disneyland is no place for a psycho killer. Why not go find a nice deep hole in the ground like any other plight on this earth. See ya on the dark side.

You are very mighty but you have many flaws in the way that you do things. I could help you. Let me be a part of your family and I will serve you well. I could destroy so many of the things that lurk inside of that evil mind of yours. I think that you should be free. The only thing that you did wrong was that you were caught in the process of the greatest conspiracy of murders I've ever seen or heard of in my entire life. I think above all that you are the greatest of all brainwashers that the world has ever seen.

I was wondering about psychopaths. Why they are the way they are and how can we help them?

What's going on with Charles Manson these days? What is the chance of a new TV interview? Is there any new insight on any serial killers presently at large in the U.S.? There are never any intelligent murderers around my neighborhood. All that we get are rappers.

Came across your Crime Archives while researching child homicide cases. The tone of your descriptions ("tanked up", "smoked", "They tried it, they liked it, they did it again") is offensive in the extreme. I believe there is a point to knowing about these cases (otherwise I wouldn't be doing this research) but to trivialize them into "amusing information" is to deny the tragedy for the victims and their families.

I think the greatest serial killer of all time was Ted Bundy. one sick bastard. the chair was too good for him. it should have put other people off but it didn't . There will be another.

I thought you might like to know that I was working on a book partly about how the CIA creates serial killers, Psychic Dictatorship in the U.S.A., when Glen Rogers, the serial killer, broke into the adjoining apartment and attempted to burn my building down. I live in L.A., population 10 million.

I do not know if you are a religious person or a Christian but I am going to write this as if you were. The crimes against humanity Jeffrey Dahmer committed reflected a sick man. it is true that it was nothing short of grotesque, but to read something along the lines of God cutting up his flesh is wrong. I am not sure if you know anything about the man's conversion to Christianity. Some have argued that it was a sad joke, others have blown it off but those of us in the Church of Christ believe him to be our brother. His sins have been forgiven This is what makes God Sovereign and man sinful. Wisdom is something that is not always found in expressions of judgment. Looking at it as a human, Jeffrey Dahmer should burn forever! Looking at it as a Christian, so should the rest of the world. Nothing qualifies me to judge the man. His death brought joy to the families he harmed. His death also brought joy to many self-righteous religious people who fail to try to see things the way God would. Think about it.

I've been trying to find out for awhile what happened to the Manson Family children. They should be approaching thirty by now. Are they deadheads or investment bankers or locked up?

RICHARD RAMIREZ IS NOTHING COMPARED TO TED BUNDY BUT BOTH OF THEM ARE NOTHING COMPARED TO ME

We are from Mounds, Oklahoma. Home of hate. You are a god like figure to us. Please send us additional information over the net on how we can become more like you.

This site has nothing to do with Armageddon. Do you really believes that the world will end soon? How will it happen? Who will leads us?

Hey baby. You can't catch me, can you? I want to kill off the whole world so I can be one with God. That's right, you heard what I said. To be one with you. Right now, as I am typing, fourteen mutilated bodies sit prettily in my closet. One of them is my bitch mother. Adios padre.

This is the worst page on the Internet that I have ever seen. The writers of this page and others linked to it have shown some extremely poor taste. You are probably just a bunch of strange and lonely guys who seem to derive pleasure from the horrible acts of other strange and lonely guys. If I were you I would feel shameful of my sorry ass.

I WANT TO ADOPT ONE OF DAVID KORESH'S CHILDREN WERE CAN I FIND OUT MORE?

This is a very interesting site. Why not attach something like this: "Serial killers are scum and that anyone who thinks a person's life is worth the price of a couple of seconds of their own feeble ejaculation is really weak."

I am a police officer in Texas. There is a guy named Bill Wynne that runs a home page for his BBS that has a link to this page. Bill has recently been arrested for raping three young girls. This man is a sicko. Just thought you would like to know. You can search for his name and it will come up.

I think Charles Manson is cool. Those people deserved to die. Some here at school deserve to die too. Get Charles and the gang to come and kill our president first, then the faculty and staff. After we can come to my place so we can get butt naked and he can suck my titties and I can lick the cum from around the edges of his penis. ummmm, ahhh, ohhh yeah. Now fuck me harder and harder and harder, that's how I like it. Remember, I am a student at vcu, and my e-mail address is above. Please, turn me in before I kill myself.

Howdy, I have a special interest in Ricky Chase because I went to Mira Loma High School in Sacramento and knew Rick personally. The first time I smoked a 'pot cigarette' he tickled me. I thought he was fairly normal then, but after high school he seemed to lose it. I think it was due to the fact that in high school he was fairly popular, but after, he was a nobody.

The best murderer ever (and still the coolest) was, without a doubt, Jack the Ripper. Although the Mad Butcher of Kingsbury Run and the Black Dahlia weren't bad, either.

Those who follow the steps and the ways of men proven to be mad are bound not for glory, but for the same doom as their idols. Dwelling on the Manson family and their brutal killings many years after their occurrence can only be an act of obsessive fantasy. Are you really prepared to see the mind of a homicidal maniac from the inside out? Those who try to discern the logic of pure inconsistency have, down through the ages of the world, succeeded only in driving themselves mad. Those who have dared to admire psychological inconsistencies such as Charles Manson (who, I might remind you, was not a very nice man) have succeeded only in falling into the inescapable sand trap of zealous dogma and endlessly reciprocating frustration. For those that might (as well I suspect you do) not have the cerebral capacity to comprehend the proven facts that I have herein set, I will put it one last time as I might to a fourth grader. Listen closely and heed the words of the wise, or else your path will lead you into darker regions than even I could map, and in those recesses of humanity, no one can help you- not even yourself. If you copy bad people too much, then you WILL become bad. If you study crazy people too much, then you WILL go crazy... and then no one will feel sorry for you.
How can we call Ted Kaczynski a killer? I would call him an artist. Not since Hitler have one man's deeds made such an impact. The only thing bad about him is the fact that he got caught.
I have a very complex, sad, and intriguing story to tell. A very serious crime was committed against me. Committed against me by the very people who are supposed to protect me -- the Police. I was raped. I am male, I was 35 years old at the time and was given a very powerful drug -- Burandanga, Nightshade, Scopalamine. It goes by different names. Then I was raped. Men can be raped too. He used his hand.

This happened 10 years ago and for the longest time I refused to acknowledge that this happened. After all, how could I, a healthy strong 35 year old male allow myself to be laid down on my own bed and raped? Surely, I either didn't really do it or I must have been cooperative. The perpetrator was a man. Well the way he was able to do it was because of this drug. The way I found out about this drug is there was an article on the front of the July 3, 1995 Wall Street Journal. It makes the victim totally compliant and causes him to have no memory , or poor memory of the event. So now I understand.

I am mad, frustrated, and at times feel horribly worthless because of what happened to me, who did it to me, and the fact that I did not, (was not able to ), press charges and seek justice. I know now how horrible a crime rape is. It degrades the victim in the worst way possible. I am very concerned that there are these drugs out there that can put people under someone else's control. And the fact that it was the Police that raped me, my God, they have since spent considerable effort covering it up.

I am sane. I am 45 years old, college educated, hold down a good job, and have a wife and family. I do not know where to turn or what to do. Below, is a brief overview of my story:

So what happened?

To answer that question is a Loooong story. But here it goes. In 1982 I ran for County Commissioner in a medium sized city. Now 1982 was a non-presidential election year. This town is heavily Republican and I ran as a Democrat. This town is the home of Senator A, then a powerful Senator, who has paid political advisors. It has been said that this town was used by him for D.C. politics as a training ground. I believe they used me (by they, the politicians) as training for going after Senator Hart (the one that fell from grace via Donna Price).

The FBI, for one reason or another, got their arm twisted into doing surveillance on me. Why, I can only guess. My guess is that Senator A. or other heavy hitters in the Republican party put them up to it. Anyway, they tapped my phone, bugged my home, infiltrated my business ( I was a small home builder), offered me prostitutes to blackmail me when my wife was out of town etc, etc, etc.

Something more serious also happened to me. I was raped. Men can be raped too. I was given a drug and this guy raped me in my own bed. It is my belief that he was some sort of sub-contractor for the FBI and was former CIA. The masochist, homosexual Hoover used to do this to "his" FBI boys (agents), tape record the session and use it as blackmail on them. I believe I was raped to be "put in my place", and/or "be taught a lesson". At any rate it was not for the rapist's enjoyment.

Now legally the FBI is not really supposed to do this sort of thing. In 1985 I decided I'd had enough of this town and moved to another town. But my dealings with the FBI did not stop. They continued, somehow to contact me. On two occasions they gave me drugs to make me forget these events.

In 1986 I took a job with NOAA. Somehow some NOAA security guy found out about my FBI history. First he thought I was some sort of mole for the FBI, spying on NOAA. Then he thought I was with the CIA. I believe it was during this time my case was moved from FBI to CIA. The FBI probably wanted this because they had done all this illegal hanky-panky on me and they could blame the CIA for it. Also the CIA can more easily hide behind national security.

Well, since then I have had more dealings with the FBI. I've even had FBI agents who knew about my case advise me to sue the FBI/CIA and try and get my files through the Freedom of information act. I always shied away from this because I did not want to cause trouble and because I was given, I believe, drugs in combination with hypnosis to forget the rape.

Recently my life has made some good strides. I have a good woman with me, and we have a daughter. I have a good job. I finally have found the courage to ask for my FBI file. I have been in contact with my Congressman. I was told to ask for my CIA file. This I have done, reluctantly.

About the time I asked for my FBI file, the FBI has found a way to play back the tapes they made with me during phone conversations from the years 1985 to present. I believe, in some way they are giving me my FBI file. However no one knows what to do about the rape.

I would like to close by saying that I remain a loyal American. I am a good worker, good husband and good father. These things are the focus of my life. However, I believe the gov't has made some serious errors in their dealings with me. I am trying to find a way to see that justice is done. I am trying to find a good lawyer that will take my case to court. There, I will testify and call witnesses to testify and ask the court to award damages. I am also interested in contacting others who have been harmed by these agencies.

These agencies will continue to harm Americans and those overseas until action is take to make them pay for their mistakes. It is legal, moral and important to make sure the Secret Police of the United States of America does not break the law. It is not against the law to run for political office and the FBI should not be used to do surveillance on those that do. I hope you agree.

I have no desire to divulge national secrets. I have never signed a security oath. Do you know if I would be breaking any laws by divulging what I have experienced?

At the very least I would like to be debriefed. Debriefed by someone with credentials in a place where I would feel safe and with a witness.

Thank you for your interest. I have broken no laws. I hope they don't make me forget again. They are my memories, no one should have their memories taken from them. It is their life and it is theft of the self.

I know the above story sounds bizarre, impossible and strange, but it is all true.
