True Crime Addict? I Got You!
Being a victim of child abuse, especially sexual, leaves it’s permanent mark on a victim. It either makes us despise child abusers, or it turns it’s victims into abusers themselves. Westley Allan Dodd had been sexually abused as a young boy, and by the time he was 13 he was assaulting easily accessible younger children such as his own cousins. Eventually this wasn’t good enough, and Westley began to kill…
On Saturday, March the 24th of 1984 Freshman Karen Slattery had been babysitting for the Helms family; she was left in charge of two sisters aged 7 and 2 whilst their parents went on a date.

California was just swarming with serial killers in the 70’s and early 80’s. The whole country was, but it’s safe to say that Cali had more than their fair share. There was Ed Kemper, the toolbox killers Lawrence Bittaker and Roy Norris, they had Rodney Alcala, Joseph DeAngelo AKA the Original Night Stalker, Richard Ramirez, and the list goes on. Cali also had an issue with victims being dumped on the side of the road like garbage, nearly 100 would be found. Males were being targeted; some were found nude, often they’d been drugged, sometimes mutilated… CAUTION, CRIME SCENE PHOTOS!
John George Haigh was a very charming and well educated Englishman, a crook, a con man, and from 1944 – 1949 he tried his hand at serial killing. We know for a fact that this man killed 6, though he confessed to having murdered 3 more than that. Not a super high body count, but he is an interesting one!

She’d had a very troubled childhood, had been repeatedly abused, sexually, by both her biological father and mom’s boyfriend. Of course this caused a rift between mother and daughter; when a 19 year old Vera met a boy, 13 year old Zachary Brooks, Vera had been thrilled that his family took her into their fold. When Zachary’s mother, Cheri Lynne Brooks, offered for Vera to move in, she jumped at the opportunity. Vera just couldn’t see that these were terrible, evil people; they had been kind to her in the beginning, but they’d had ulterior motives…

His mother was afraid he’d hurt his sister, so he was locked in the basement at night. Leaving the boy alone in a cold, dark basement with his violent fantasies made the situation so…
This is Anne Faber, and the selfie of her standing in the rain was taken just before she was kidnapped and brutally murdered. Anne was a beautiful young woman with her entire life ahead of her; she was heavily involved in the arts, theater, and you’d be hard pressed to find someone who had disliked…
