Stephen Akinmurele was a suspected
serial killer , of Nigerian descent, charged with murdering five elderly people between 1995 and 1998. The case is noted for Akinmurele's long-standing hatred of elderly people. Akinmurele committed suicide before his trial though confessed to a number of the murders. Police believe he may have also been responsible for two further killings. [1]
All of the victims in the case were elderly with the lead investigator in the case noting that Akinmurele had a " pathological hatred" of old people. He was dubbed " cul-de-sac killer" due to his choice of elderly victims living in quiet suburban streets. Akinmurele had a history of mental illness and had committed crimes against the elderly from the age of 11. [2] He was drawn to situations in which he would encounter the elderly with the police asserting he got a "kick" out of killing old people. [3]
Akinmurele killed himself in Manchester Prison in August 1999. In his suicide note Akinmurele admitted to the crimes, saying that he regretted them and feared he would kill again. [4] He had also earlier admitted to three other killings of younger victims, though police believe the confession to be false and an attempt to mask the ageist motivation behind his crimes. [1]
Eric Boardman, one of the victims, received a posthumous award for his bravery in defending himself and his wife from Akinmurele. Boardman's actions caused vital evidence to be left at the scene by Akinmurle, enabling the police to trace him through his fingerprints

10)Ahmad Suradji



The idea of ritualistic serial
killers on one hand baffles me
and on the other hand fascinates
me. They’re a reminder that the
world is full of different cultures
where different practices are
considered acceptable than here
in the West.
But Ahmad Suradji doesn’t seem
to be following any kind of
cultural norm. Instead he just
sounds deranged. At the same
time, I have to admit it’s one of
the more “interesting” excuses or
motives I’ve ever seen. Here’s
more on Indonesian serial killer,
Ahmad Suradji.
He claimed to be told by
his father’s ghost in a dream that
by killing these women and
drinking their saliva, he would
become a mystic healer.
So dumb. 😑
