    Serial Killer: Enriqueta Martí i Ripollés

    Little is known of Enriqueta Martí i Ripollés before she arrived in Barcelona in the early years of the 19th Century. What is known is that she did not arrive alone. She brought with her a brutal penchant for survival and an equally fierce desire to rise above a poverty that she would soon sadistically twist to her advantage. She preyed on young children from Barcelona’s destitute Raval Quarter. She would prostitute them to the pedophiles and deviants who had for so long protected and frequented her brothels. She could at once appear impoverished, dressed in rags to entice her prey and then as evening fell, attend the lavish galas of the El Liceu (Barcelona Opera House) as gentry. She continued unabated before finally being discovered in 1912 by a vigilant neighbor who alerted police.

    Serial Killer: Maury Travis

    Maury Troy Travis was an American serial killer who committed suicide in a St. Louis county jail, after being arrested for murder. Travis was named in a Federal criminal complaint for the murders of two women. At the time of the murders, Travis was a waiter and on parole for a robbery in 1989. While in his letter Travis claimed to have murdered 17 women, some authorities were doubtful, others thought he may have murdered up to 20 women. He sent a letter and a map to the press and has the dubious honour of being the first serial killer to be caught by Google. That shows advances in technology are making it more and more difficult for a serial killer to remain active.

    Serial Killer: William Suff (Riverside Prostitute Killer )

    William Lester Suff, also known as the Riverside Prostitute Killer, and the Lake Elsinore Killer, is an American serial killer. Between 1986 and 1992, he murdered at least twelve prostitutes in Riverside, California. In 1995, a jury found that the unassuming-looking middle-aged man had picked up street walkers in his van, then strangled or knifed them, and proceeded to do unsettling things with their corpses. His conviction appeared to bring to a close a six year-long manhunt for the so-called “Riverside Prostitute Killer” wanted in connection with the slayings of 19 prostitutes. Riverside’s long search for the prostitute killer led to Suff’s arrest. On January 9, 1992, police cruising the prostitution district saw a van stopped along curbside, where the driver had a conversation with a woman on the sidewalk. When the van pulled away suddenly and made an illegal U-turn, police stopped it. Although they arrested Suff for driving with a suspended license and lapsed vehicle registration, what he had inthe back of his van was the break detectives had been looking for: a rope, sleeping bag, and bloody knife.

The killer labelled the Rainbow Maniac, was behind the murders of 13 men in Carapicuíba, a city of nearly 400,000 people in greater São Paulo. They were killed in a park used as a gay meeting point. Police also investigated whether the same killer was behind three murders in the neighbouring city of Osasco, where a similar weapon was reportedly used. The killing began on 4 July 2007 when 32-year-old José Cicero Henrique was murdered in the Paturis park. 12 other men have been killed in the park, nine in virtually identical circumstances. Their half naked bodies were dumped in the undergrowth with a .38 caliber bullet in the back of the head and their trousers wrapped around their knees.

    Serial Killer: Lorenzo Gilyard

    Prosecutors say that while Lorenzo Gilyard was escaping detection as a serial killer for two decades, advances in DNA testing were being made that would eventually link him to seven women who were killed in Kansas City in 1986 and 1987. "The defendant wasn’t counting on the fact that science would catch up with him, but it did," said Ted Hunt, chief trial assistant, during closing arguments in the murder trial. "Twenty years later, a part of his own body is pointing a finger back at him." Six other murder counts, including one stemming from the death of an Austrian national, were dropped last week as the trial got under way, although prosecutors could refile those charges later.

    Gilyard, a former trash company supervisor, would face life in prison if convicted of any of the slayings. His fate is being decided by Jackson County District Judge John O’Malley. Prosecutors made DNA evidence linking Gilyard to all seven women the centerpiece of their presentation. The cases were connected in April 2004 when the police department’s crime lab tested evidence from unsolved homicides using a federal grant. His semen or seminal fluid was found on six of the women, and his hair was found on the seventh victim. All of the victims were left in sexually compromising positions. But defense attorney Susan Elliott said the lifestyles of the victims - all but one of whom were prostitutes - suggested it was not only probable but likely that they had sexual contact with other men. The defense went through each of the cases suggesting alternatives, including that one victim was killed as retaliation for talking to the FBI about a drug supplier and that another had been threatened by a boyfriend before her death.
