TRUE CRIME OBSESSION: The True Crime Stories That Gripped The World Everyone loves a good murder story. Not in the sense that the people of the world want to see people murdered, but there is no better source for "car crash journalism" than the many stories of killers, rapists, and robbers that commit crimes around the world. Many of these men are strange or different, oddities that can be gawked at despite their terrible crimes. But some people commit crimes so monstrous or bizarre that they exceed even other criminals in their exposure. They often have unique personalities or tap into a societal fear, confirming the biases of the day through their actions. In the following chapters, we detail some of the biggest stories of the twentieth century. These criminals were not necessarily the most prolific or brutal in their actions, but something about their story resonated with the public of their nation. Their crimes were the top headlines for months as the people followed them through arrest, trial, and punishment.The existence of bizarre crimes is a natural occurrence. For as long as there are normal, mundane happenings in life, there will also be unspeakable atrocities which defy explanation going on at the same time. It is a terrifying concept which we have little individual control over, and this may be why we find such occurrences fascinating. This volume will cover some of the stories which have grasped the world by the throat and remained in our collective conscious until this day; whether that be for reasons of sheer brutality, cultural relevance or unique peculiarity. It is said that the truth is often stranger than fiction. The stories in this volume exist to prove this.
