I cited the case of Arthur Shawcross, known as the Genesee River Killer, in Rochester, New York. He killed two children—a boy and a girl. He was sentenced to twenty-five years to life and was paroled on good behavior after fifteen years. Then he started targeting prostitutes and murdered twelve women before he was caught. The details changed and so did the victims, but his prey still consisted of vulnerable, easy-to-approach individuals. I didn’t want to see a repeat of Shawcross here.
