prolific serial killers in u.s history

ostensibly wrote the names of all his
victims he began a killing spree in 1971

when two patrol officers pulled him over
for drunk driving california highway
patrol pulled over randy craft for
driving erratically in the passenger
seat of his toyota celica
they found a dying marine
his last victim in his car the officers
found an apparently intoxicated young
man who had been strangled to death they
also found his murder journal in the
trunk with which they connected kraft to
the other killings a notebook with
hand-written cryptic notes on as many as
67 victims dating back to the 1970s

and handed a death penalty sentence in
1989.
harvey glattman after showing signs of
sadomasochism as a child harvey glatman
was taken to see a medical professional
who assured his parents he would grow
out of the behavior but as he grew older
it was obvious that glatman's strange
fascination with morbidity only worsened
while in prison for kidnapping and
assaulting a woman he was diagnosed with
psychopathic personality of a
schizophrenic type once out of prison
glatman's crimes began to escalate in
1957 29 year old harvey gladman moves to
l.a he was responsible for assaulting
and killing three women taking pictures
of them before ending their lives as
long as he has a camera in his hands
sexy women ask no questions his day of
reckoning came in 1958 when he tried
kidnapping his intended fourth victim he
was spotted by a patrolman who swiftly
arrested him putting an end to his
crimes when the officer searches
harvey's car
he soon realizes who the attacker is
dayton leroy rogers dayton leroy rogers
dubbed the malala forest killer and
carved his name out as one of the
world's most evil killers dayton leroy
rogers was known in the media as the
malala forest murderer because he dumped
the bodies of his victims in the woods
around malala oregon on august 7 1987
rogers picked up jennifer lisa smith and
stabbed her in his car
smith fell onto the road and her screams
grabbed the attention of patrons in a
nearby restaurant who rushed to her aid
rogers quickly drove off but he was
chased by another man who noted his
plate number and address and handed them
over to the police oregon's supreme
court has overturned his death sentence
three times now this new trial is
expected to last roughly three weeks the
notorious oregon killer was arrested
based on this information and currently
sits on death row for the murder of
smith and six other women i absolutely
agree
that i have forfeited my place in free
society
and that i forever
belong behind bars till i die edward
sarat
while working as a truck driver edward
serrat passed through parts of ohio and
pennsylvania at a time when certain
cities were grappling with a string of
unsolved murders even though he was
arrested a lack of evidence prevented
the police from charging him with any of
those crimes he would pick a house one
story
so that no one could be up in the second
floor and come down and surprise him on
july 1 1978 however surat would provide
police with all the evidence they needed
when he broke into a house and held a
family of three hostage the father was
able to escape to find help and brought
police back to the house where sarat was
passed out drunk the suspect attempts to
escape but is ultimately apprehended he
refuses to tell police his name and is
held without bond a day later florida
authorities identified the man as edward
arthur serrat he was arrested on the
scene and linked to a murder in south
carolina receiving two life sentences
for each crime he didn't talk a whole
lot really he didn't say look if you
give me this i'll i'll tell you that and
i kept asking him questions and while we
were there he wasn't really paying a lot
of attention to us william bonan william

killer for dumping the bodies of most of
his victims along various southern
california freeways although convicted
of 14 murders and executed by lethal
injection bonnen is suspected to have
claimed the lives of up to 36 male
victims his arrest probably wouldn't
have happened if he wasn't already being
surveilled by the police on the second
of june whilst the lapd began to
organize a 24-hour surveillance
operation on william bonin their new
prime suspect for the freeway killer
bonin and james monroe had picked up
another young man on june 11 1980

bonnen in the process of assaulting the
teen with a mountain of evidence
obtained from the vehicle bonnen later
confessed to a total of 21 murders he
would give them information about his
numerous victims on the understanding
that his confessions could not be used

crime came on july 30th 2007 when he
broke into a house in massachusetts he
attacked the family's daughter while she
slept and her muffled screams were loud

said no i'll check on her which really
isn't the norm usually i'm selfish and
want to get all the sleep i need and um
but that that morning something told me
