Tim’s Reviews > Psycho USA: Famous American Killers You Never Heard Of > Status Update

I am currently reading the chapter on murderers during the 1920's. The last killer I read about was a man, who killed women for financial gain by befriending them via a dating pen-pal service. He murdered a woman and her children, via torturing them and hanging and burgeoning them to death.

I am currently reading the chapter about Scott Jackson, a serial killer, who killed his first victim in an apple orchard, who was a prostitute and decapitated and was stripped of clothing in the field.

I just finished a section about a father from New Hampshire by the name of Charles Freeman, who in the middle of the night killed his daughter as a sacrifice to God, saying that Jesus would return within 3 days, yet obviously she didn't.

I just finished reading about Anton Probst, a German immigrant, who was known as a troublemaker in the past, who liked to spend his money on prostitutes and alcohol. After a while of roaming around in post-Civil War America, he murdered his employer and his family to gain his wealth. A total of eight were killed that day. He was afterwards sentenced to death.
