murders? Weather not you agree if it is moral or
not, one issue remains. The death penalty is not
an effective way to deter crime. The death penalty

punishment is the will of the people, yet many
voices have been raised...

Jack the Ripper was a murderous madman who
terrorized prostitutes in the late 1880? s. Time

of speculation ensued (jack 1). Many authors have

Bundy? s case the lack of parental guidance and
constant rejection of women contributed to him
evolving into a vicious serial killer. Bundy was a
man who let his fantasies run his life, he
believed that life was a game. Al...
