Ed Kemper – The Beginning
Kemper is such a fascinating case. There is so much that made him what he is, that is, that putting in in one post was impossible. He is such a complex combination of a seemingly nice, friendly guy and evil….
The Dragon Lady
Have you ever heard of The Dragon Lady? No?? I’m surprised. She was one hell of a serial killer. She killed her first five victims when she was 11. By the time she was done, she had murdered more than 20 victims, 11 of them were babies….
