Роман Игнатов - Сыны Сэма. Убийцы влюбленных парочек

Some time ago you were written a letter, concerning three different parties, addressed to you at Texas Police Station, and whether you got it or not, is not known.

Sometimes letters written like this seem to be maybe to you people not too much importance, but to others possibly would mean their life. This letter referred to was written in time before the Starks’ murder and you were given three names and this is another note or letter written in behalf of lives of people who care to live, but cannot come to you. Trusting you are not favoring a certain Ark. Law man or his friend, which is not written in any way, shape or manner, as an accusation of any kind with reference to our laws or you. If you will do some questiong think you will have something, as as what we need in this town is co-operation and no pay off. Talk getting might big and brave and time getting ripe, so get busy and watch these people.

Trust you will keep this confidential as you said you would in the newspaper, is not written with spirit of ralling things up, but with all good intention to help protect the lives of not only one person, but possibly many.

If you will check Blue two door Sedan, without top, you, of it had been the findings no doubt would of been an advantage to you. This Sedan belongs to boy not over 24, North of Texarkana, Arkansas. Has been washed and rewashed, and had two friends to help him, and gun was returned to one of them. Keep that confidential, confidential as it means the lives of more than one.

I AM VERY CLOSE TO YOU. YOU WILL NEVER TAKE ME UNLESS I CHOOSE IT. THE FINAL NUMBER IS STILL FAR AWAY. SIXTEEN ARE NOT MANY. I DON’T HATE ANYONE, BUT I HAVE TO DO IT IF I WANT TO LIVE. BLOOD AND TEARS WILL RUN SOON. YOU WILL MAKE NO PROGRESS THE WAY YOU ARE GOING. YOU HAVE GOTTEN EVERYTHING WRONG. TOO BAD FOR YOU. I WILL MAKE NO MORE MISTAKES, BUT THE POLICE WILL. INSIDE OF ME, THE NIGHT WILL LAST FOREVER. I CRIED FOR THEM. EXPECT ME.

Джек Потрошитель (англ. Jack the Ripper) – псевдоним, присвоенный серийному убийце, который действовал в Уайтчепеле и прилегающих районах Лондона во второй половине 1888 года. Прозвище взято из письма, присланного в Центральное агентство новостей, автор которого взял на себя ответственность за убийства.

«Место встречи изменить нельзя» – советский пятисерийный телефильм, снятый по роману братьев Вайнеров «Эра милосердия». Действие картины происходит в послевоенной Москве, где орудует банда «Чёрная кошка». Её поимкой занимаются сотрудники отдела по борьбе с бандитизмом МУРа. Фабула фильма перекликается с реальной историей красногорской банды Ивана Митина, занимавшейся грабежами и убийствами в Москве и Подмосковье в начале 1950-х годов.

Генри Холмс, Джон Гейси, Артур Шоукросс, Тед Банди, «Хиллсайдские душители» – серийные убийцы, действовавшие на территории США с конца 19 века по 80-е годы 20 века.
