  • There is very little information about Russian serial killers out there, and that's because the Soviet Union doesn't let any of that information out to the public, but we found one Russian serial killer that made headlines so big they couldn't cover it up.

The wheel was being changed for the first time since rolling out of the factory, and during the following few years there was a total of 8 bodies found hidden in the exact same way throughout then-soviet Lithuania.

    Being aware is more important. In my city there was a guy that lured young children after school into his car by telling them he was gonna drive them home, he then just drove them far away from the city. School caught word of it and told parents and us. That's how I learned to never trust strangers 100% and being aware will make people more cautious when people do something.

    Chikatilo was one of the most known of them. Killed really a lot of people before getting caught and executed. If I remember correctly, one innocent guy was also executed because all presumed evidence pointed at him and the court found him guilty.
    Funny fact is that Chikatilo was a teacher.

    They had plenty of serial killers. The worst one they had was Joseph Stalin.

      Stalin would be called a spree killer under FBI definition, not serial. The difference is that serial killer has cooling-off period, while spree killer doesn't.

    Last I checked they brought BTR and a squad of infantry to smoke out a criminal hiding in a house, or rather to bring the house down with or without the criminal in it. I can't imagine what they would send to take care a serial killer lol

    The irony of the confession made by the killer is the psychiatrist used a method that was similar to one used by a certain SS officer to extract confessions. Unlike the other Nazis he used friend conversations and even went so far as taking his prisoners on walks through a garden. His method was so successful after the war other agencies kept him around to learn his method.
