Subscribe to Our Life: https://bit.ly/3dBMxvl Serial killers are the dark stars of modern culture, but is it nature or nurture that creates a serial killer? Born To Kill takes an in-depth look at the cases of some of the most notorious murderers that have shocked the world. Raised amidst family violence, Albert Henry DeSalvo, later known as The Boston Strangler, would come to satisfy his insatiable sexual appetite through the rape/deaths of thirteen victims from 14 June, 1962, through 4 January, 1964. Earlier escaping a charge of sex with a minor, he'd go door-to-door as a modeling agent, becoming known as The Measuring Man, then later on becoming The Green Man who raped women tied to their beds. Shortly after his release from prison, the deaths began, with decorative bows tied around the victims' necks. The victims were elderly for a while, then they got younger, then rape alone became enough without killing.
