Ctrl + Alt + Delete: Serial Killer John Edward Robinson Pt 1

Serial killers have most likely been around as long as people have,
long before we had the term. In fact, some scholars believe that
the early stories about vampires, werewolves, and other such
creatures were actually created to explain the kinds of violence
people didn’t have any other way to explain. The kind of violence
perpetrated by what we now call “serial killer.” Ugh. Even that
term is chilling, isn’t it? This is the first time we’ve told the
story of one of these killers, and we’ve chosen one who—although
his crimes aren’t that different from those of BTK or some of those
other infamous names—is unique in at least one aspect. He was the
first serial killer to find his victims via the brand-new internet.
And the way he wooed them was so methodical, so cold, so
premeditated, that we struggle to imagine what it would be like to
live inside a mind like that. He was a consummate scammer, too, a
criminal to the core.
