Richard Speck always believed he would shock the world and make headlines. He did just that when he systematically tortured, raped, and murdered eight student nurses from South Chicago Community Hospital on the night of July 13–14, 1966. He craved the attention he felt deprived of as a child, and he, unfortunately, found it in the kindness of nurses. His personal life in shambles, Speck couldn't find employment and struggled with substance abuse. Nearing the end of his rope and filled with rage, Speck unleashed on the people he craved most, nurses; raping and stabbing them over twenty times, washing his hands after each murder. Finally satisfied with his beastly binge, Speck thought he had created the perfect murder, but he made one crucial mistake - one woman survived, linking him to the bloody crime.

The killer that brought New York City to its knees; David Berkowitz went on a yearlong murderous rampage killing six people in 1976. He mostly targeted long-haired brunettes, leading many women in New York City to cut and dye their hair blonde.

He was the king of terrorism. On the FBI’s Most Wanted list for more than a decade, Bin Laden was the founder of Al Qaeda and crusaded for global jihad. The prime target of his attacks was the United States of America. The most tragic was the attack on the World Trade Center, in New York, September 11th, 2001 - yet another date that will live in infamy. Bin Laden orchestrated his plan with 19 militants used to hijack four airplanes designed to carry out suicide missions on targets within the United States. Two of the planes crashed into the north and south towers of the World Trade Center, while a third plane hit the Pentagon. The fourth plane, believed to be headed toward the White House, never reached its intended target due to the heroism of its fated passengers. Osama Bin Laden wanted war with the United States and that is exactly what he got. He was found and killed by Navy Seals on May 2, 2011. Like what you hear and want more true crime and mystery?
