Roger Reece Kibbe is an American serial killer known as the "I -5 Strangler". Kibbe found all but one of his victims on the freeways around Sacramento, California. On May 10, 1991, Kibbe was sentenced to 25 years to life imprisonment for the murder of Darcie Frackenpohl to serve his time at the Pleasant Valley State Prison. 

In 2003, Kibbe accompanied prosecutors to a dry creek he remembered to try to find the body of Lou Ellen Burleigh, whom he had discarded in 1977. In 2007, a detective searched the area again. In 2009, Kibbe again returned to the site with detectives. Burleigh's body was not found and a grand jury was convened. After a plea bargain to avoid the death penalty, on November 5, 2009, Kibbe was sentenced to an additional six life sentences, this time for the murders of Lora Heedick, Barbara Ann Scott, Stephanie Brown, Charmaine Sabrah, Katherine Kelly Quinones, and Lou Ellen Burleigh. 

William Dathan Holbert, also known as Wild Bill, is a self confessed murdered from Hendersonville, North Carolina.

Prosecutors allege Holbert, a former associate of the National Alliance, confessed to killing five people in Panama and one person in Costa Rica to get their money and properties. Prosecutors say Holbert befriended the victims, shot them in the head, buried their bodies, and then stole their homes and businesses. The bodies of Americans Mike Brown, his wife and child; Cheryl Lynn Hughes and Bo Icelar were found buried on his property.

Holbert and his ex wife, Laura Michelle Reese, were arrested by authorities as they attempted to make their way into Nicaragua via Costa Rica on July 26, 2010.

Edson Izidoro Guimarães is a Brazilian nursing assistant and convicted serial killer. He confessed to five murders of which he was convicted of four, but is suspected of committing up to 131 in total. He claimed that he chose patients whose conditions were irreversible and who were in pain.

Guimarães worked as a nurse in the Salgado Filho Hospital in the Meier district of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. He was caught in 1999 when a hospital porter saw Guimarães fill a syringe with potassium chloride and inject a comatose patient who immediately died. The police were informed and a higher than average death rate on his ward increased their suspicions. On his arrest, he confessed to five murders. He told a television reporter prior to his trial, "I don't regret what I did", adding "I did it to those in irreversible comas and whose families were suffering."

He was convicted on February 21, 2000, of the murders of four patients and sentenced to 76 years in prison. He is thought to have killed up to 131 patients between January and May 1999. He told reporters: "The oxygen mask was taken away, yes. There were five patients that this happened to... I chose the patients I saw suffering, generally patients with AIDS, patients who were almost terminal. I am in peace because the patients were in a coma and had no way of recovering."

Steven John Grieveson is a British serial killer known as the Sunderland Strangler, who murdered four teenage boys in a series of killings committed between 1990 and 1994 in Sunderland, England. Convicted of three counts of murder at Leeds Crown Court, Grieveson was sentenced to life imprisonment on February 28, 1996, with a recommendation that he serve a minimum of 35 years before the Home Secretary considers his eligibility for release.

In October 2013, Grieveson was convicted of the 1990 murder of 14 year old Simon Martin at Newcastle Crown Court, and sentenced to a fourth term of life imprisonment. He is currently incarcerated at HMP Full Sutton maximum security prison in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England. 

Grieveson became known as the Sunderland Strangler due to the city in which he committed his murders, and his preferred murder method of ligature strangulation.

On November 26, 1993, Grieveson murdered 18 year old Thomas Kelly in an abandoned allotment shed in Fulwell, Sunderland. His body was set alight. On February 4, 1994, he murdered 15 year old David Hanson in Roker Terrace, before finally murdering 15 year old David Grieff on February 25, 1994 in an abandoned Fulwell allotment just 50 yards from where he had killed Thomas Kelly three months earlier. All three victims were pupils or former pupils of Monkwearmouth Academy, and suspicion among both law enforcement and the staff and fellow pupils at the school was that all three victims had known their killer, who may have been a present or former alumni of Monkwearmouth Academy himself.

Grieveson was initially arrested on March 11, charged with an attempted burglary at the Roker Terrace household where the charred body of David Hanson had previously been found. Following an extensive investigation, Grieveson was charged with three murders in November 1995, and faced a six week trial in 1996 where he was handed three life sentences for murder. He was ordered to serve a minimum of 35 years in prison.

It was ascertained at this first trial that Grieveson murdered the three boys in order to conceal evidence of his homosexuality.

In November 2000, Grieveson, serving his three life sentences at Full Sutton Prison, was arrested and questioned over the murder of 14 year old Simon Martin, who was murdered in Gilside House, Roker, in 1990.

In June 2004, Grieveson wrote a letter to the Victim Liaison Services admitting to killing his three victims, but did not admit to the murder of Simon Martin. As such, he was not charged with Martin's murder at the time. On November 22, 2012, however, Grieveson was charged with the murder of Simon Martin and on February 11, 2013, he admitted being responsible for his death, but denied murder. He was convicted of Simon Martin's murder on October 24, 2013, following a trial at Newcastle Crown Court.

Thierry Paulin was a French serial killer active in the 1980s.

Paulin was born in Fort-de-France, Martinique. His father flew to France just after his birth, leaving his teenaged mother to fend for herself and the baby. Paulin was raised in Martinique by his paternal grandmother, who owned a restaurant and allegedly paid little attention to her grandson. When he was ten, Paulin started to live with his now-married mother, trying to blend in with his stepbrothers and sisters. His behavior started to become erratic and violent towards the other children, and eventually his mother asked his father to take their son to France. His father accepted in order to avoid paying alimony.

As a mixed-race student among white peers, Paulin had few friends, and performed poorly at school, failing his exams. At the age of 17, he decided to enter military service early, joining the parachutists' troops; however, his fellow soldiers disdained him for his race and homosexuality.

On November 14, 1982, he robbed an old woman in her grocery, menacing her with a knife; the grocer knew him as a client, however, and he was soon arrested. In June 1983, he was sentenced to two years of jail, but the sentence was suspended, allowing him to remain free.

In 1984, after leaving the army, Paulin learned that his mother and her family now lived in Nanterre, a northern suburb of Paris. He went there to live with them, but his relationship was hostile.

Paulin became a waiter at the Paradis Latin, a night-club renowned for its transvestite shows,. There, he started a career as an artist, dressed in drag and singing tunes by his favorite singer, Eartha Kitt. His mother was once invited to watch her son's performance, but she left the club a few seconds after the beginning of the act.

The most important event that happened to Paulin at the Paradis Latin was meeting Jean-Thierry Mathurin. The 19 year old Mathurin was born in French Guyana, and was a drug addict. Paulin fell in love with him and they soon became lovers. Paulin was also addicted, but less severely, and sold drugs as well.

On October 5, 1984, two elderly women were assaulted in Paris. Germaine Petitot, 91, survived but was too traumatized to give a detailed description of the criminals. Anna Barbier-Ponthus, 83, died after being beaten and asphyxiated beneath a pillow. Her murderer robbed her of 300 francs. 

In October-November 1984, eight other elderly women were murdered, mainly in the 18th precinct of Paris, but in neighboring precincts too. The violence of the crimes was horrific; some of the victims had their heads stuck into plastic bags, some were beaten to death, and one of them was forced to drink drain cleaner. In all cases, the motive appeared to be robbery. Some reports allege that Paulin singled out women who seemed unpleasant or unfriendly when he engaged them in conversation, while Paulin himself told police that "I only tackled the weakest of them."

At the same time, Paulin and Mathurin were leading an extravagant lifestyle, spending their nights dancing, drinking champagne, and snorting cocaine. In late November, they decided to go to Toulouse to stay for a few months at the home of Paulin's father. But the elder Paulin was unable to accept his son's lover, and violent fights ensued, ending when Paulin and Mathurin broke up. Mathurin returned to Paris, while Paulin tried to start his own firm of transvestite artists, a plan which failed in autumn 1985.

From December 20, 1985 to June 14, 1986, eight more old women were killed. The police were unable to identify the killer, though the investigators had a few clues. Police determined through fingerprint evidence that the perpetrator was the same individual who committed the 1984 murders. However, in the new murders, the killer appeared to favor quicker, less cruel methods.

In the autumn of 1986, Paulin attacked one of his cocaine dealers with a baseball bat. The dealer went to the police and Paulin was arrested. Paulin was sentenced to 16 months of jail for the assault, spending one year in Fresnes prison. Upon his release, Paulin knew himself to be HIV positive.

Knowing that he was in effect under a death sentence from AIDS, Paulin organized lavish parties, spending a lot of money and sparing no expense. Paulin paid for these parties with stolen credit cards and checks, and with the proceeds from his murders.

On November 25, 1987, Paulin murdered Rachel Cohen, age 79. On the same day, he attacked an 87 year old woman, Berthe Finalteri, whom he suffocated and left for dead. Two days later, he strangled Genevieve Germont, who would be his last victim.

As Paulin celebrated his 24th birthday, Finalteri unexpectedly recovered, and was able to give an accurate description of her attacker, stating that he was "un métis d'une vingtaine d'années coiffé à la Carl Lewis, avec une boucle d'oreille à l'oreille gauche" (literally "a mix-race man in his twenties, with hair like Carl Lewis and an earring in his left ear"). On December 1, Paulin was arrested while walking down the street when a local police inspector, Francis Jacob, recognized him from Madame Finalteri's description. After two days in custody, Paulin admitted everything, including his involvement with Mathurin. Accused of committing 18 murders (though he claimed responsibility for 21), he was sent to jail to await trial.

In early 1988, Paulin fell ill, as his body began to succumb to the effects of AIDS. Within a year, he was hospitalized in a state of near paralysis, suffering from both tuberculosis and meningitis. He died during the night of April 6, 1989 in the hospital wing of Fresnes prison.

Dominique Cottrez is a French woman who admitted killing 8 of her newborn infants. In July of 2010, two of the bodies were discovered in plastic bags by new owners working in the garden of a house Dominique and her husband, Pierre-Marie Cottrez, previously occupied. When police contacted the Cottrez family to question them about the discoveries, Dominique immediately admitted that the bodies belonged to two infants she had given birth to. She also told police that six more infants' bodies were hidden in the garage. All were born over an approximately 17 year period between 1989 and 2006 or 2007.

French prosecutors announced on July 29, 2010 that Dominique had been indicted on murder charges. Her husband was questioned by a judge but has not been charged at this time. Prosecutors believe he may have been unaware of the infants because Dominique's obesity concealed the pregnancies.

In August 2012, Dominique was released by an appeals court in the town of Douai on condition that she continues to receive psychological and psychiatric care.

On July 2, 2015, Cottrez was found guilty and sentenced to nine years in prison on eight counts of infanticide.

Peter Stumpp was a Rhenish farmer, accused of being a serial killer and a cannibal, also known as the "Werewolf of Bedburg".

The most comprehensive sources on the case is a pamphlet of 16 pages published in London during 1590, the translation of a German print of which no copies have survived. The English pamphlet, of which two copies exist (one in the British Museum and one in the Lambeth Library), was rediscovered by occultist Montague Summers in 1920. It describes Stumpp's life and alleged crimes and the trial, and includes many statements from neighbors and witnesses of the crimes. Summers reprints the entire pamphlet, including a woodcut, on pages 253 to 259 of his work The Werewolf.

Additional information is provided by the diaries of Hermann von Weinsberg, a Cologne alderman, and by a number of illustrated broadsheets, which were printed in southern Germany and were probably based on the Germany version of the London pamphlet. The original documents seem to have been lost during the wars of the centuries that followed.

Contemporary reference was made to the pamphlet by Edward Fairfax in his firsthand account of alleged witch persecution of his own daughters in 1621.

Peter Stumpp's name is also spelled as Peter Stube, Peter Stub, Pe(e)ter Stubbe, or Peter Stumpf, and other aliases include names such as Abal Griswold, Abil Griswold, and Ubel Griswold. The name "Stump" or "Stumpf" may have been given him as a reference to the fact that his left hand had been cut off leaving only a stump in, in German "Stumpf". It was alleged that as the "werewolf" had its left forepaw cut off, then the same injury proved the guilt of the man. Stumpp was born at the village of Epprath near the country town of Bedburg in the Electorate Cologne. His date of birth is not known, as the local church registers were destroyed during the Thirty Years' War. He was a wealthy farmer of his rural community. During the 1580s he seems to have been a widower with two children; a girl called Beele (Sybil), who seems to have been older than fifteen years old, and a son of an unknown age. During the years before his trial he had an intimate relationship with a distant relative named Katharina Trump (also spelt "Trumpen" or "Trompen").

During 1589, Stumpp had one of the most lurid and famous werewolf trials of history. After being stretched on a rack, and before further torture commenced, he confessed to having practiced black magic since he was twelve years old. He claimed that the Devil had given him a magical belt or girdle, which enabled him to metamorphose into "the likeness of a greedy, devouring wolf, strong and mighty, with eyes great and large, which in the night sparkled like fire, a mouth great and wide, with most sharp and cruel teeth, a huge body, and mighty paws." Removing the belt, he said, made him transform back into his human form. No such belt was ever found after his arrest.

For twenty five years, Stumpp had allegedly been an "insatiable bloodsucker" who gorged on the flesh of goats, lambs and sheep, as well as men, women and children. Being threatened with torture he confessed to killing and eating fourteen children, two pregnant women, whose fetuses he ripped from their wombs and "ate their hearts panting hot and raw", which he later described as "dainty morsels." One of the fourteen children was his own son, whose brain he was reported to have devoured.

Not only was Stumpp accused of being a serial murderer and cannibal, but also of having an incestuous relationship with his daughter, who was sentenced to die with him, and that he had coupled with a distant relative, which was also considered to be incestuous according to the law. In addition to this he confessed to having had intercourse with a succubus sent to him by the Devil.

Boone Helm was a mountain man and gunfighter of the American West known as the Kentucky Cannibal. Helm was a serial killer who gained his nickname for his opportunistic and unrepentant proclivity for the consumption of human flesh taken from the bodies of his enemies and traveling companions. While this was usually done in survival situations, Helm sometimes took flesh in preparation for a survival situation.

Boone Helm was born in Kentucky into what was considered an honest, hardworking and respected family. Helm's family moved to Missouri when he was still a boy. Helm delighted in demonstrating feats of strength and agility, and would goad men into fights and regale others by throwing his Bowie knife into the ground and retrieving it from a horse at full gallop. In one incident that demonstrates his contempt for authority, Helm, on horseback rebuffed the sheriff's attempt to arrest him and walked his horse up the stairs of a courthouse and into the courtroom, while circuit court was in session, and verbally harangued the judge.

Helm married 17 year old Lucinda Browning in 1848 and soon fathered a daughter. Helm became known for his heavy drinking, riding his horse into the house, and beating his wife. The domestic violence grew to such an extent that Lucinda petitioned for divorce. Helm's father paid for the costs of the divorce. Having bankrupted his father and ruined his family's reputation. Helm then decided to move to California. 

By 1850, Helm had decided to head for California in search of gold. Helm asked his cousin, a man named Littlebury Shoot, if he would accompany him to California. Shoot initially agreed to accompany him, but when Littlebury attempted to back out of the trip Helm became angered and stabbed him in the chest, killing him instantly. Helm then headed west alone. Littlebury's brother and friends pursued and captured Helm, but his antics in captivity quickly landed him in an asylum for the mentally deranged. Upon entering the asylum, Helm became taciturn and convinced his guard to take him on walks through the woods. After these walks became routine, Helm was able to take advantage of the guard's trust, deceive him, and escape.

Helm then headed west to California. On the way, he murdered several men in various altercations, eventually committing premeditated murder. Forced to flee to avoid arrest and vigilante justice, Helm teamed up with six men with whom he confided that in his past Helm had eaten all or part of some of his murder victims. "Many's the poor devil I've killed, at one time or another... and the time has been that I've been obliged to feed of some of 'em." This boastful allusion is the first report of cannibalism on the part of Boone Helm.

An attack by Natives on the way to Fort Hall, Idaho, forced Helm and his party into the wilderness. Short on provisions, Helm and his remaining party killed their horses, ate the meat, and made snowshoes out of the hides.. The journey was arduous, winnowing the party down to two men: Helm and a man named Burton. When Burton could go no further Helm left him only to return in time to hear the pistol shot of Burton taking his own life. Helm ate one of Burton's legs and wrapped the other to take with him on his journey. Someone finally discovered Helm at an Indian camp and allowed him to accompany him. Despite having over fourteen hundred dollars in coins on his person, Helm reportedly neither paid nor thanked this person for feeding, clothing and transporting him to Salt Lake City.

Boone became wanted by the law and fled to San Francisco, California. While in California, Helm killed a rancher who had befriended him and taken him in, sheltering him from the vengeance of the law. Helm then traveled to Oregon and resumed robbing people for a living, frequently murdering them. In 1862, after heavy drinking, Helm gunned down an unarmed man named Dutch Fred in a saloon and fled. While on the run, Helm ate another fugitive who had been accompanying him. Captured by authorities, Helm implored his brother "Old Tex", one of Helm's twelve siblings, for assistance. With a considerable amount of money, "Old Tex" paid off all of the witnesses. Unable to convict Helm without witnesses, the authorities released him and he accompanied his brother to Texas. Helm soon reappeared at many of the settlements mentioned before, killing many more men in the process. Finally Helm was apprehended in Montana.

Gilles Garnier was a French hermit and cannibalistic, serial murderer convicted of being a werewolf. Alternately known as "The Hermit of St. Bonnot" and "The Werewolf of Dole".

The Werewolf of Dole, Gilles Garnier, was a reclusive hermit living outside the town of Dole in the Franche-Comté Province in France. He had recently been married and moved his new wife out to his isolated home. Being unaccustomed to feeding more than just himself, he found it difficult to provide for his wife causing discontent between them. During this period, several children went missing or were found dead and authorities of the Franche-Comté province issued an edict encouraging and allowing the people to apprehend and kill the werewolf responsible. One evening, a group of workers traveling from a neighboring town came upon what they thought in the dim light to be a wolf but what some recognized as the hermit with the body of a dead child. Soon after, Gilles Garnier was arrested.

According to his testimony at trial, while Garnier was in the forest hunting one night trying to find food for himself and his wife, a spectre appeared to him offering to ease his troubles and gave him an ointment that would allow him to change into the form of a wolf, making it easier to hunt. Garnier confessed to having stalked and murdered at least four children between the ages of 9 and 12. In October 1572, his first victim was a 10 year old girl whom he dragged into a vineyard outside of Dole. He strangled her, removed her clothes, and ate the flesh from her thighs and arms. When he had finished, he removed some flesh and took it home to his wife. Weeks later, Garnier savagely attacked another girl, biting and clawing her, but was interrupted by passersby and fled. The girl succumbed to her injuries a few days later. 

In November, Garnier killed a 10 year old boy, again cannibalizing him by eating from his thighs and belly and tearing off a leg to save for later. He strangled another boy but was interrupted for the second time by a group of passersby. He had to abandon his prey before he could eat from it. In 1572, he attacked brutally an unknown boy who was passing and cut the boy in half by biting and tearing his belly. In 1573, he strangled a girl, ate her flesh, tore away her left leg and took it to his wife.

Michael Thomas Gargiulo is an American alleged serial killer who may have killed as many as ten women.

Garguilo is accused of stabbing three women to death and attempting to murder a fourth woman.

He is a native of Glenview, Illinois, where he allegedly stabbed his neighbor, 18 year old Tricia Pacaccio, to death at her home on August 14, 1993. She was stabbed 12 times. Gargiulo moved to Los Angeles in 1998, allegedly to escape scrutiny from police in Illinois.

Gargiulo is accused of three stabbings in Southern California between 2001 and 2008. On February 21, 2001, he allegedly stabbed Ashley Ellerin to death in her home in Hollywood. Se was stabbed 47 times. Ellerin was dating Ashton Kutcher at the time and they had planned to go to a post Grammy Award party the night she was killed. Gargiulo allegedly stabbed his neighbor, Maria Bruno, to death at her home in El Monte, California, on December 1, 2005. She was stabbed 17 times. He is charged with the attempted murder of his neighbor, Michelle Murphy, in her home in Santa Monica on April 28, 2008. She fought off the attack, and blood matching Garguilo's DNA was found at the scene.

Gargiulo was arrested by the Santa Monica Police Department on June 6, 2008. Although Gargiulo is charged in the two California murders as well as the Pacaccio murder in Chicago, police have not linked him to any other murders. 

Gargiulo allegedly told authorities in the Los Angeles County Jail that just because 10 women were killed, and his DNA was present, doesn't mean he murdered anyone, leading investigators to believe that there are more victims.

Media in Los Angeles dubbed Gargiulo the "Hollywood Ripper" as well as the "Chiller Killer."

Walter E. Ellis, also known as the Milwaukee North Side Strangler, was an American serial killer who raped and strangled seven women in the city of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, between 1986 and 2007.

The North Side Strangler victims were all African American women. Milwaukee Police Department Homicide Detective Steven Spingola authored a magazine article, The Killer in Our Midst: the Case of Milwaukee's North Side Strangler, which chronicled his investigation of the homicides of Sheila Farrior and Florence McCormick. Trained in criminal background analysis, Spingola provided a detailed profile of the killer, which Milwaukee talk radio host and former Assistant U.S. Attorney Jeff Wagner described as "eerily accurate". Spingola, however, retired before Detectives Gilbert Hernandez and Kathy Hein of the Milwaukee Police Department's cold case homicide unit, reexamined DNA evidence that linked a suspect to the murders.

On September 7, 2009, Walter E. Ellis, then aged 49, was arrested on suspicion of being the notorious serial killer. Ellis had been arrested 12 times between 1981 and 1998 when he was sentenced to five years for reckless endangerment.

Initially represented by Attorney Russell Jones in defense of these claims, Ellis pleaded not guilty, and stood prepared to defend himself. Jones was withdrawn from the case, and then on February 18, 2011, Ellis pleaded no contest to seven murders or intentional homicides, and was convicted despite not admitting his guilt. On February 24, 2011, he was given seven life sentences, to be served consecutively, without the possibility of parole. After his conviction, he was initially held at the Dodge Correctional Institution in Waupun, Wisconsin, for Assessment and Evaluation in accordance with the Wisconsin Administrative Code, from where he was transferred to the Wisconsin Secure Program Facility in Boscobel, Wisconsin. In November 2011, Ellis was transferred to the maximum custody unit of the South Dakota State Penitentiary.

Volker Eckert was a German truck driver and serial killer who confessed to the murders of six women, five of whom were prostitutes. He was accused of committing 19 murders in France, Spain and Germany between 1974 and 2006.

15 year old Eckert committed his first murder in 1974 in Plauen. He strangled a 14 year old girl, but he succeeded in camouflage as a suicide. On November 17, 2006, Eckert was arrested in Wesseling nearby Cologne, Germany. The police found tufts of hair and pictures of his victims subjected to various tortures in Eckert's truck and in his house.

On July 2, 2007, Eckert was found dead in his cell in Germany, after committing suicide. After his death, police found evidence that Eckert had killed nine women across Germany, France, Spain and Italy. Furthermore, there are strong indications that he killed another four women.

Paul Charles Denyer is an Australian serial killer, currently serving three consecutive sentences of life imprisonment with a non parole period of 30 years at HM Prison Barwon for the murders of Elizabeth Stevens, 18; Debbie Fream, 22, and Natalie Russell, 17, in Frankston, Victoria, in 1993.

Denyer is known as the "Frankston killer" as his crimes occurred in Frankston and neighboring suburbs. Denyer was featured in the pilot episode of Seven Network crime series Forensic Investigators.

Denyer was born to British immigrant parents, Anthony and Maureen Denyer in Campbelltown, New South Wales, an outer suburb of Sydney. His parents had immigrated to Australia in 1965. In 1981, the family relocated to Victoria.

He reportedly had difficulty fitting in amongst his peers in his new town which led to problems with his self confidence that was worsened by significant weight gain during his teen years. The abuse Paul suffered at the hands of his father did not help either, or the fact that he would witness many times his own mother being beaten up by his father.

Denyer stalked and murdered three women in and around the Melbourne suburb of Frankston during a seven week period in 1993. Denyer was 21 at the time of his crimes. During a police interview he said the motivation for his crimes was a hatred of women in general.

POLICE: Can you explain why we have women victims? DENYER: I just hate them. POLICE: I beg your pardon. DENYER: I hate them all. POLICE: Those particular girls or women in general? DENYER: General.

The first victim was 18 year old Elizabeth Stevens. She had just alighted from a bus to Langwarrin when she was dragged to nearby Lloyd Park. Her throat was slashed and a crisscross pattern was carved into her chest.

A month later, the second victim, Deborah Fream, was abducted in the early evening. She had left her car unlocked to run into a store to buy milk. Denyer climbed into the backseat, and hijacked the car after Fream drove from the store. She was taken to Taylor's Road and, like Stevens, her throat was slashed savagely. She had left her 12 day of baby at home with a friend when she left to buy the milk.

Rosza Toth was attacked by Denyer while walking home from Seaford railway station on the evening of Deborah Fream's abduction. Toth was dragged towards the toilet block. She managed to break free of Denyer's grasp and notified police.

The third and final victim, 17 year old Natalie Russell, was attacked while walking home early from school. She had taken a short cut home along a bicycle track through a park. She was dragged from the path through a large hole in a wire fence, but put up a huge fight. This made Denyer angry, and he slashed at her head and neck. Russell's death was the most brutal.

Connections with the 1990 disappearance of Sarah MacDiarmid from nearby Kananook railway station were made. MacDiarmid's body has never been found. The only evidence suggesting a crime was a pool of blood next to her car, parked at the station. Denyer denied involvement in her disappearance.

Similar connections to the murder of Michelle Brown have also been discussed. She was found naked, and her body was too decomposed to examine the injuries.

While imprisoned, Denyer requested to be allowed to purchase and wear women's cosmetics, which he was denied.

Bandali Michael Debs is an Australian serial killer, currently serving four consecutive terms of life imprisonment for the murder of two Victoria Police officers in August of 1998, and also the 1997 murder of teenager Kristy Harty (above). 

Debs was detained at HM Prison Barwon in Victoria. On December 10, 2011, he was convicted of the April 1995 shooting murder of New South Wales prostitute Donna Ann Hicks. 

Debs, from Narre Warren, a south eastern suburb of Melbourne was employed as a tiler. He had fathered five children. His youngest son Joseph was found dead due to a suspected drug overdose at a house in Greensborough in December 2003.

In February 2003, Debs was convicted and sentenced to two consecutive terms of life imprisonment with no minimum term for the murders of two Victoria Police officers, Sergeant Gary Silk and Senior Constable Rodney Miller at Moorabbin, Victoria, on August 16, 1998.

Accomplice Jason Joseph Roberts, who was 22 at the time of sentencing, was also convicted of the police murders and sentenced to two consecutive terms of life imprisonment with a minimum term of 35 years.

On June 20, 2005, police charged Debs with the murder of troubled teenager Kristy Mary Harty, who was murdered at Upper Beaconsfield on June 17, 1997. Harty was soliciting for sex along the Princes Highway when she met with Debs. The pair drove to a secluded bush track in Upper Beaconsfield where they had unprotected sex. Harty was later murdered. Her semi-naked body was found lying face down by bushwalkers. A single gunshot wound was discovered at the rear of her head.

DNA tests revealed semen located on the body of Harty was linked to Debs. In May 2007, Debs was convicted of the murder of Harty and sentenced to a third consecutive term of life imprisonment.

In sentencing Debs, Justice Kaye remarked:

"Your murder of Ms. Harty was entirely senseless, needless and wanton. The evidence discloses beyond any doubt that this was not a case of a sexual encounter in which, in the heat of the moment, feelings or passions may have led to a spontaneous and irrational act of violence. Rather, and quite to the contrary, this was, most clearly, a callous, craven and senseless murder in cold blood of an entirely innocent, defenseless and vulnerable young woman. The evidence leads to the inevitable conclusion that you murdered Kristy Harty for no other reason than for the sheer sake of it."

Donna Anne Hicks was shot dead in April 1995 in western Sydney.

Debs was subsequently linked to the case through DNA analysis. Debs had been entered into a DNA database of criminals. On September 30, 2008, Melbourne detectives interviewed Debs and raided his previous address in Sydney. On December 12, 2011 he was found guilty of Hicks' murder in the New South Wales Supreme Court. He was sentenced to a fourth consecutive life term for the murder.

Olaf Däter is a German serial killer who has been dubbed as Oma Mörder ("Granny-Killer") by the media.

In June 2001, Däter killed five elderly women within ten days. As he had previously worked as a gerontological nurse for the women, they trusted him and let him into their apartment. There, he attacked the women from behind and suffocated them, whereby the obese Däter used his whole bodyweight. The doctors examining the first four victims didn't notice the severe internal injuries and declared the women to have died of natural causes, which was subject of intense public discussion. He tried to kill a sixth woman, but she survived and told his name to the police.

Antonis Daglis was a Greek serial killer who was convicted of the murders of three women and attempted murder of six others in Athens on January 23, 1997. Referred to as the "Athens Ripper", he was sentenced to thirteen terms of life imprisonment, plus 25 years.

Daglis, a truck driver, preyed upon Athens prostitutes between 1992 and 1995. He had been a repeat juvenile offender since the age of 14. He had a prior record for a 1988 charge of seducing a minor, and in 1989 he was arrested for attacking a group of men at the Zappeion in Athens with a knife.

Daglis was initially suspected for two murders after he was arrested for the rape and abduction of an English woman named Ann Hamson. After his arrest, Daglis confessed to the rape, strangulation and dismemberment of two women and the attempted murder of a further six, and having robbed all eight women. He later admitted to dismembering the bodies of two women, Eleni Panagiotopoulou, 29, and Athina Lazarou, 26, with a hacksaw and disposing of them around Athens. Daglis subsequently confessed to the previously unsolved murder of a prostitute whose dismembered body was found in a dumpster in 1992.

During his trial, Daglis told the court, "I hated all prostitutes and continue to hate them. I went to meet them for sex but suddenly other pictures came into my head. I heard voices which ordered me to kill. Once I thought about strangling my fiancee, but I restrained myself."

Rory Enrique Conde, also known as The Tamiami Trail Strangler, is a Colombian serial killer who killed 6 prostitutes in Florida. He was sentenced to death on March 7, 2000.

Rory Conde was born on June 14, 1965 in Barranquilla, Colombia. His mother died of tetanus when he was six years old. Conde and his sister Nelly were then raised by their paternal grandmother. When Conde was twelve, they moved to Miami to live with Conde's father, Gustavo Conde. Conde did not like his father and thought he was emotionally abusive. Conde's future wife, Carla Conde, thought that Rory's outbursts were a result of sexual abuse at the hands of his father.

Rory and Carla were married in 1987, when he was 21 and she was 15, eventually having two kids. Rory was an abusive husband and had a stint in jail in 1992 as a result of a fight with Carla over Rory bringing girls over. They later moved to a condo off the Tamiami Trail. They stopped having sex and Rory would disappear at night. In July 1994, Carla moved out to her parents' house with the two kids. Rory threatened to kill her if she dated anyone else.

On September 17, 1994, Conde killed cross dressing male prostitute, Lazaro Comesana. He later said that he killed Lazaro after finding out he was a man during sex.

Conde then killed two more prostitutes, Elisa Martinez on October 8 and Charity Nava on November 20. On the back and buttocks of Charity he wrote "THIRD! (A happy face dotting the 'i') I will call Dwight Chan 10. (A reference to WPLG anchor Dwight Lauderdale) (See) if you can catch me. (Using two eyes instead of the word 'See')".

Conde then killed three more prostitutes: Wanda Crawford on November 25, Necole Schneider on December 17, and Rhonda Dunn on January 12, 1995.

He strangled his victims to death and would have anal sex with the corpses afterward.

Conde was arrested on June 19, 1995 when Gloria Maestre, a prostitute he had bound head to toe, made enough noise to attract neighbors while Conde was in court for a shoplifting charge.
