Gary's goal in life was collecting ten sex-slaves and fathering as many children as he could before dying.

In serial murder, as in American society at large, blacks have always constituted a statistical minority. Only in the 1980s have their numbers been significant, but every generation has produced some interesting cases, bold exceptions that defy the rule.

A native of Las Vegas, born in 1956, Horton was possessed of an explosive temper and "a bad habit of pulling the trigger" when quarrels erupted into violence. Between the ages of 16 and 20, he dispatched at least one victim per year, regaling the judge at his murder trial with a promise to take more lives in the future, if the opportunity arose. [ReadOn]

The accidental death of Philip Husereau, on February 18, 1988, was no more curious or twisted than the drifter's life. Police in Rochester, New York, report that Husereau was suffocated while engaged in masturbation, with his head inside a plastic bag of nitrous oxide "laughing gas." Next day, his sister told authorities of Husereau's confessions in the deaths of five successive girlfriends, during 1983 and '84. [ReadOn]
