The twelve-year rampage of “Missoula Mauler” Wayne Nance—and the shocking end to his murder spree To his neighbors, Wayne Nance, a furniture mover from Missoula, Montana, appeared to be an affable, considerate, and trustworthy guy. No one knew that Nance was the “Missoula Mauler,” a psychopath responsible for a series of sadistic sex slayings that rocked the idyllic town between 1974 and 1986. Nance’s only requirement for murder was accessibility—a preacher’s wife, a teenage runaway, a female acquaintance, a married couple. Putting on a friendly façade, he could easily gain his victims’ trust. Then, one September night, thirty-year-old Nance pushed his luck, preying on a couple who lived to tell the tale. A true story with an incredible twist, written by former Wall Street Journal editor John Coston and complete with photos, To Kill and Kill Again reveals the disturbing compulsions of a charming serial killer who fooled everyone he knew, stumped the authorities, terrified a community, and nearly got away with it.

Pages : 76
Book Description
A number of studies have demonstrated that most people hold similar stereotypes about what criminals look like and believe that "the face fits the crime." contend this is a result of a "Lombrosian" influence on how villains are depicted in comic books and movies. In any event, even if it is proved that manly-faced men tend to be naughty by nature, a policy of facial profiling won't guarantee our safety. The many baby-faced killers would seem to prove the point. This is a collection of babyface killer true stories. DAPHNE ABDELA Some murders offer more questions than answers. The vicious slaying of Michael McMorrow, a forty-four-year-old real estate worker, is such a case. That his murder was carried out by fifteen-year-old kids is just one of the bizarre elements to the crime, which took place in the Strawberry Fields area of Central Park, New York City, in 1997. Who actually wielded the blows that killed Michael? Was it Daphne Abdela, the rich girl gone bad? Or Christopher Vasquez, the boy from the other side of the tracks whose numerous emotional issues saw him placed on prescription drugs to help him cope with anxiety and depression? Or was it the two, egging each other on in a fit of alcohol-fuelled frenzy? NIKKI REYNOLDS It is not often that stories appear where we find the perpetrators of violence being children and the victims being parents. Although scattered throughout history it has been seen that children can be capable of shocking amounts of violence, and many, assuming their innocent nature, fall victim to them. In Coral Springs, Florida in 1997 one such story took place. And still, the actions of the evening resonate throughout the community. AMELIA DYER Amelia Dyer is considered one of the most prolific serial killers in history. Her picture on the front cover easily betrays the evil that resided within her heart. Her reign of terror lasted over twenty years, as she is projected to have killed as many as 400 children before finally being caught Go into the daily rituals and techniques used by Dyer to procure her victims as well as the psychology behind her behavior.
