Alexander Vladimirovich Bychkov was born on 1 April 1988. Him and his family resided in a home near Belinsky. He had a brother younger than him by 2 years (Sergei)

His mother forced both children to work in their vegetable garden and for their neighbors, and would get beat if they came home without money. They both also engaged in petty theivery but were pitied by who they were stealing from.

Both his parents were alcoholics, and his father committed suicide at the age of 40 supposedly because of his wife's infedelity.

His brother was beaten severely, and after a car accident where he got thrown out of a moving vehicle he survived the injuries but became disabled, forcing Alexander to leave his studies to take care of him.

Based on his journal the murders started after his girlfriend broke up with him, and he admitted in the murder of 11 men and the eating of their livers, muscles and heart

He'd target the homeless and men suffering from alcoholism, luring them into his home and killing them with a hammer or knife before dismembering their corpse.
