The Nurse Killer
<p>Richard Speck always believed he would shock the world and make headlines. He did just that when he systematically tortured, raped, and murdered eight student nurses from South Chicago Community Hospital on the night of July 13–14, 1966. He craved the attention he felt deprived of as a child, and he, unfortunately, found it in the kindness of nurses. His personal life in shambles, Speck couldn't find employment and struggled with substance abuse. Nearing the end of his rope and filled with rage, Speck unleashed on the people he craved most, nurses; raping and stabbing them over twenty times, washing his hands after each murder. Finally satisfied with his beastly binge, Speck thought he had created the perfect murder, but he made one crucial mistake - one woman survived, linking him to the bloody crime.</p> <p>Like what you hear and want more true crime and mystery?

Son Of Sam
<p>The killer that brought New York City to its knees; David Berkowitz went on a yearlong murderous rampage killing six people in 1976. He mostly targeted long-haired brunettes, leading many women in New York City to cut and dye their hair blonde. Given up for adoption as an infant and bullied as a child, Berkowitz always felt unwanted and alone. After finally finding acceptance in a satanic cult, he decided to act on the rage he harbored against women. He was out to destroy them, blaming his actions on the demands coming from a demonic dog. He’ll later claim he didn't act alone, and that he was the scapegoat. But are these more lies from a deranged madman or are the true killers still out there?</p> <p>Like what you hear and want more true crime and mystery?
