What is it about killers, cults and cannibals that capture our imaginations even as they terrify and disturb us? How do we carefully consume these cases, and what can they teach us about what makes victims and their murderers our collective responsibility?

Mord ist schon schrecklich genug, wenn er von Erwachsenen begangen wird, doch das Konzept erreicht eine völlig neue Ebene erschütternder Morbidität, wenn sich herausstellt, dass der Mörder ein junger Junge oder ein junges Mädchen ist. Ist es das Ergebnis schwerer Traumata, die sich auf die makaberste Art und Weise manifestieren? Ist es die Folge einer schweren psychischen Störung? Oder wurden sie von den Handlungen der Menschen beeinflusst, bei denen sie aufwuchsen?

There is little more terrifying than those who hunt, stalk, and snatch their prey under the cloak of darkness. These hunters search not for animals, but for the touch, taste, and empowerment of human flesh. They are cannibals, vampires, and monsters, and they walk among us.

They are the Dennis Rader's, the fathers, husbands, church-going members of the community.

In the late hours of July 22, 1991, Detective Patrick "Pat" Kennedy of the Milwaukee Police Department was asked to respond to a possible homicide.

Key to this was a cast of four: Vito Bertocchini, Kay Maulsby, Ray Biondi, and Faye Springer.
