I hated school. I don’t trust anybody who looks back on the years 14 to 18 with any enjoyment. If you liked being a teenager, there’s something really wrong with you.

“I would talk to her … and get her mind off of the, uh, anything she was nervous about. And think, you know, she thinks, ‘Oh, this guy cares,’ and which I, I didn’t. I just want to uh get her in the vehicle and eventually kill her.”Gary Ridgway, ‘The Green River Killer’ was a seemingly mild-mannered, married man whose own wife called him “a dream come true,” and had no idea he was one of the most prolific murderers in American history. Ridgway beat and strangled at least four dozen women during the 1980s and ’90s, often dumping their bodies in or near Washington State’s Green River. It is believed that he killed at least 71 women, most of them being prostitutes. Ridgway would also return the the victims body to have intercourse with it, sometimes while it was decomposed. DNA evidence eventually led to his arrest and conviction. To avoid the death penalty, he confessed to murdering 48.
