Arthur Gary Bishop and Westley Allan Dodd had many things in common. They were both psychopathic pedophiles and child molesters who eventually turned to killing their victims. Both were executed for their crimes at their own request. Most importantly, both desperately wanted to know one thing before they died: How did I become a serial killer? This book is an attempt to answer that question.
It’s often said that we will likely never understand how a person becomes a serial killer. However, I believe we can. In fact, we must, if we are ever going to find a way to stop the sexual abuse of children. But it’s not only the victims we want to save. We also want to stop children from transforming themselves into killers.
This book goes a long way towards helping us understand why. It also includes a never-before-seen booklet written by Wes Dodd, telling children how to avoid strangers.
Book two in the Development of the Violent Mind series.
