I don't care about myself, I don't care what happens to me, I never did really. I do believe in the evil in human nature, this is a wicked wicked world, and in a wicked world wicked people are born. I'm not gonna blame society, my race or people or anything. It is up to the individual like myself to keep on knocking on whatever door they want to get into. As far as Satan is concerned, I believe in a malevolent being, his description alludes me, but I have felt forces that are evil.
Serial killer Richard Ramirez in a tv interview for inside edition in 1993, he was on death row at the time.
When Dr. Darryl Sutorius, a prominent heart surgeon in Cincinnati, Ohio, first met Dante Britteon, he had no idea the trouble he was getting into.
Darryl had been married to another woman for 30 years, with whom he had four kids with. While he was a highly-regarded surgeon, being one of the best in his field, he had horrible people skills and a short fuse, making him a nightmare to be around both at work and home. This caused his marriage to become strained, resulting in a divorce.
After the divorce, Darryl struggled with intense loneliness, fearing he would die alone. He took to an online dating service, hoping to find love there, and was matched with Dante Britteon, a petite blonde woman in her 40s who had a degree from UCLA and used to run her own daycare centre. For Darryl, it was love at first sight.
Dante had only been married twice in her life and was serious about finding a life partner. Darryl was absolutely smitten with his new girlfriend, pampering her with all the exquisite vacations and designer labels she coveted. Months into dating, they decided to marry. But soon, the marriage started taking a turn for the worse, when Darryl’s daughter began planning her own lavish wedding and requested her father’s financial help. Dante took great issue with Darryl spending money on his own kids, resulting in many heated arguments that escalated into death threats from Dante.
Darryl, fed up with his wife’s controlling ways, lawyered up to begin the process of a divorce. That’s when he found out her real name was Della Faye Hall. Not Dante. Darryl took it upon himself to call Della’s mother, whom she was essentially estranged from, and found out some terrifying details about his wife’s past. Della lied about being married twice. She’d actually been married 4 times, with many boyfriends in between. She abused all of them, threatening nearly all of them with a gun. She set one boyfriend’s bed on fire while he was asleep, and burned down another boyfriend’s house when he broke up with her. She also never attended UCLA. She hadn’t even finished high school. Whoever she dated or married, Della squeezed every penny out of them.
Hearing these details about his wife made him fear for his life. He tried to speed up the divorce process and planned to serve his wife with divorce papers. But he never got to do that. Della knew that if she and Darryl divorced, she’d only be granted around $2000 in alimony payments per month. But if he died…she’d inherit $900,000.
So Della bought a gun and then shot her husband in the head, staging the scene to appear like a suicide.
But the forensic evidence came through, pointing toward Darryl’s death being a homicide–not a suicide. Della was arrested and sentenced to 23 years to life in prison, where she died in 2010 at the age of 60.
Summary of the 1996 Frontier Junior High School shooting committed by Barry Loukaitis. Note: this is for informational, educational purposes only. Post is below the cut.
Background:
Barry Dale Loukaitis was born February 26th, 1981 to Joann Phillips and Terry Loukaitis. Although both parents had children from previous marriages, Barry was raised as an only child. He was known for being outgoing and incredibly intelligent. He had an above-average IQ of 116 and was an honor student with an interest in reading and writing. According to his parents, he had many friends and was a member of the student council. The Loukaitis family, previously living in Iowa and Minnesota, moved to Moses Lake, Washington when Barry was in fifth grade. Barry’s once bright personality began to change once he entered middle school.
Family Life:
Joann and Terry’s relationship became abusive, and the fallout of their marriage deeply affected Barry. Terry, a known alcoholic and womanizer, was often absent towards the end of their marriage. When he was around, he was always arguing with Joann. He refused to share any information about the family's personal or business finances with his wife, and their fights would sometimes become physical. Barry would plead with them to stop fighting, with no success. His mother would constantly confide in him about her personal and marital problems while completely ignoring her son’s declining mental state.
In January 1996, Joann filed for divorce after learning about an affair Terry was having. The discovery of this affair led Joann into a severe depression, and she began confiding in Barry about her suicidal thoughts. Obsessed with revenge, Joann told Barry of her plan for Valentine's Day: she would drive to Ellensburg (where Terry and his new girlfriend were staying at the time), break into his house, and direct him and his girlfriend to the basement at gunpoint. She planned to tie them to chairs and tell them how deeply Terry's betrayal affected her. In the end, she would shoot herself in front of them.
"I told him I was going to go to Ellensburg, tie his father and his girlfriend up in the basement in chairs.. Terry would never listen to me - I was going to make them listen to how they made me feel... I would have a gun and they wouldn't know if I was going to shoot them but at the end... I was going to shoot myself." - Joann testifying in court.
These plans worried Barry, and he tried to redirect his mother's pain. He advised her to write down her feelings rather than acting them out in a violent way. Joann never went through with her plan, but the damage had already been done to her son. Although he was already withdrawing and showing signs of a declining mental state, this event advanced Barry’s isolation. He avoided his parents, and would only eat in his room if he ate at all. Barry spent his days alone reading or watching videos.
Bullying:
Along with the conflict at home, Barry was bullied at school. He was seen as an easy target for bullying because he would never fight back. He was teased for being small for his age and kicked in the school hallways. A friend of Barry told a police officer that he would never wear shorts due to the severe bruising on his legs. Many students would later come forward about the severe physical bullying that Barry dealt with on a daily basis. A popular student, Manuel Vela, was always attempting to humiliate Barry and argued with him frequently. Vela was the opposite of Barry; he was a well-liked boy with confidence. As Barry's mental health declined, his thoughts of violence were becoming more apparent to his peers. Barry would never fight back physically, but he began making disturbing comments and threats towards anyone who targeted him. Soon, his only interactions with other students were to curse them out or threaten them. One of his remaining friends, Zachary Ufkes, stated that Barry was fixated on violence and spoke about going on a killing spree because it would be "fun".
"Manuel called Barry a "f*ggot" multiple times. After that, Barry said, 'Do you treasure your life?' He said it under his breath like he didn't want him to hear it, but he did." - Amos Frisbie, a friend of Barry Loukaitis, testifying about an argument Vela and Loukaitis had weeks before the shooting
Shooting:
Frontier Junior High School had a delayed start on February 2nd, 1996, due to the cold weather conditions. However, Barry did not leave his house until around 1pm. During this time, Barry stole his father's revolver and hunting rifle; he also took a pistol from his mother's car. He dressed in all black: including a cowboy hat, cowboy boots, and a $240 trench coat his mother had bought for him two days prior. He cut a hole in one pocket of the trench coat to hide the rifle in. Finally, he strapped two ammunition belts (with 78 rounds of ammunition) around himself. His father offered him a ride to school, but he refused. Barry walked about 1 1/2 miles to Frontier Junior High School.
Loukaitis entered the building through a side entrance. He passed teachers and students before ending up at room 15, where he had his fifth period algebra class. The class had already begun as Barry opened the door. He immediately aimed and fired at Manuel Vela, who was sitting at the desk closest to the door. Vela was shot in the chest and died instantly. Loukaitis shot three times, hitting students Arnold Fritz and Natalie Hintz. Fritz was shot in the chest, and Hintz was shot in the upper torso, almost severing her right arm. Algebra teacher Leona Caires pleaded with Barry to stop, but he shot her in the back as she attempted to hide. Witnesses say that Barry was disturbingly calm during the shooting. He told the class, "This sure beats algebra, doesn't it?"
"He was calm. He was making jokes. He also told us not to worry... that he wouldn't hurt more of us." - Cory McNutt, survivor sitting closest to the victims.
Loukaitis tried to set the panicked room into order. At this point, Jon Lane, a physical education teacher who was two classrooms away from the shooting, began walking towards room 15 after hearing the commotion. He opened the door and saw Leona Caires’ dead body and Loukaitis with a rifle. Lane quickly hid under the teacher's desk, but Barry ordered him to stand up. He initially refused, stating he was too afraid. A decision had to be made when Loukaitis threatened to start shooting students if Lane did not stand up.
"I told him to point the gun up and away and I would stand." - Jon Lane, teacher
Jon convinced Barry to let him take three students out of the classroom; the wounded Natalie Hintz, a student with diabetes, and Arnold Fritz (who later passed away in the hospital). Each of the three students were taken out individually. During this time, police were attempting communication by talking through the classroom door and calling the classroom phone. Barry ordered Jon to give him the phone, which Barry proceeded to throw onto the floor and break. Although he had initially threatened to shoot more students if police continued to intervene, Loukaitis decided to end the shooting. He told police “to give him 10 minutes to get the room in order." Each student was directed to the back of the room at gunpoint, and Jon Lane was told that he would be taken as a hostage. A black plastic bag was secured over the muzzle of the rifle with rubber bands. Lane was told to put the gun in his mouth, but he refused. After consistent demands from Loukaitis, he pretended to comply and tackled him to the wall when he was close enough. As he unarmed Loukaitis, the remaining students escaped while law enforcement entered. He was immediately handcuffed; he did not resist arrest.
"He was acting shockingly calm. I expected to see a look of remorse, some facial expression. He was very calm... A sergeant made a comment to him, like `Look what you've done.' Loukaitis said, 'I know.'" - Detective Paul Harder
Two hours after being arrested, Barry was interrogated by Detective Sgt. Dave Ruffin. He denied his opportunity to call his parents and a lawyer, stating he did not like lawyers. Loukaitis seemed uncertain of the events of his own doing. He could not recall the amount of people he shot or what his intentions were for the shooting. The interrogation ended abruptly when Ruffin told Loukaitis that his mother had called the family’s lawyer, who advised him to stop speaking. Barry was then taken to his cell where he quickly fell asleep.
“He was a completely different person. I was shocked, horrified. I didn’t know what to think. It was like the whole thing was a nightmare. It was as if all of this stuff that had been boiling up inside of him all of a sudden started coming out. He was scary looking." - Terry Loukaitis, father of Barry Loukaitis
Trial:
Both the preliminary hearings and trial faced many complications and delays. Primarily, changes in Barry’s defense and the judge presiding the case caused concern and delay for the trial. The lawyers involved in the trial changed multiple times, and many of them were later viewed as incompetent.
On September 27th, 1996, it was decided that Barry would stand trial as an adult. The trial officially began on August 15th, 1997. Loukaitis pleaded innocent by reason of insanity. Although bullying seemed to be the implied motive, it was not the focus of the trial. The defense for Loukaitis centered around his dysfunctional family and underlying mental illness. Court-appointed psychiatrists testified with varying conclusions on Barry’s mental health. Some believed that Barry was in a deep state of psychosis, and therefore could not be held entirely accountable for the shooting. Others believed that Barry was mentally ill, but was fully aware of his actions and their consequences. Prosecutors argued against the claims of debilitating mental illness, using Loukaitis’ intricate planning as evidence.
"He felt like he was God and would laugh to himself. He felt he was superior to other people, and then those feelings were later replaced by hate, disdain, and not measuring up." - John Petrich, psychiatrist
Barry’s parents, former friends, and classmates testified of his gradual descent into hatred and isolation. In the end, Barry Loukaitis was found guilty of 2 counts of first-degree murder, 1 count of second-degree murder, 1 count of first-degree assault, 1 count of second-degree assault, and 16 counts of aggravated kidnapping on September 24th 1997. Since he was being tried as an adult and the insanity plea was denied, a life sentence was almost inevitable. Manuel Vela Sr., father of victim Manuel Vela, wished that Barry was eligible for the death penalty. Alice Fritz, mother of victim Arnold Fritz, stated that she wished Barry would be sent to a treatment facility until he was an adult. On October 10th, 1997, Barry Loukaitis was sentenced to two life sentences plus 205 years without the possibility of parole.
"There is no happy ending here. We still hope that somehow Barry can get some help." - Alice Fritz
Resentencing:
In 2012, a ruling in the Miller v. Alabama case changed how juvenile offenders were sentenced. Sentencing juveniles to life in prison without the possibility of parole was now deemed unconstitutional. Because of this, juveniles who were previously given this sentence could be resentenced.
Barry Loukaitis was set to be re-sentenced in April of 2017. Before the resentencing, a handwritten letter by Barry was given to the Grant County Superior Court. The letter not only contained an apology for his actions, but Loukaitis also stated that he would not fight any sentence given and wanted the court to 'defer to the desires of the victims' families.' He expressed his deep regret and remorse for committing the shooting.
During the resentencing, families of the victims and survivors spoke. Some held the same views as they did during the original sentencing, while some felt sympathy for Loukaitis. Barry spoke briefly towards the end of the resentencing, apologizing and giving some explanation to his actions
"When we talked Barry, I told you that I hope you could wake up in the morning and know that if you could have a good day, Arnie’s mom was happy with that and you should not feel guilty for any joy you could find in your life. I still mean that. You have value. I hope that you can experience joy and purpose. I challenge you to do that." - Alice Fritz, mother of victim Arnold Fritz
"As I sit here, I am still waiting for the day my sorrow decreases. I don’t care what you’re going through. Your sentence was supposed to be final, like death is final. I’m being victimized all over again.” - Natalie Hintz, survivor
“The short answer is that I was afraid, I was angry and I was jealous. That’s not the full explanation, but I was in a situation where I was going through the same things that every other kid did and I didn’t see it. I didn’t know that everyone else went through that. And when I started feeling rejected, instead of reaching out to anyone, or saying something to anyone, I just concealed it and instead of facing my own problems and admitting that there was something wrong with me, I turned that behavior outward toward others." - Barry Loukaitis
Barry Loukaitis was resentenced to 189 years in prison.
After he was caught on July 22nd 1991 the police discovered body parts, bones, and corpses of 11 people in his apartment. They also found all kinds of knives and sawblades, a hypodermic needle, an electric drill, a 57 gallon blue plastic drum with three decomposing torsos inside and photographs of his mutelited victims.
I'm convinced men point to Aileen Wuornos as “THE female serial killer” (instead of Juana Barraza, for example) is because she is the embodiment of women they hate.
Many people would use the excuse that they point to Wuornos because she is American. There are more than a handful of examples of female serial killers in America who have killed more people than Aileen Wuornos ever did (Christine Falling, Genene Jones, Nannie Doss, Belle Gunness, etc), so she is not special in that regard.
People would argue that her method was just so unspeakable. Most female serial killers murder by poison or similar less violent methods than their male counterparts. Her method of killings was by shooting her victims, which is not very atypical of female murderers.
Aileen Wuornos is singled out as “THE female serial killer” because she was a lesbian, she was a prostitute, and she killed when she knew she would be r*ped.
It is undisputed that Aileen was most likely raped by the first man she killed, Richard Mallory, because he has a history of s*xual assault and rape. People scoff at the idea of a prostitute being raped, but every time you make a person decide on food for dinner or not having sex with you, that is rape.
These men view her as “THE female serial killer” because she is the embodiment of women that are subhuman to them, yet they still believe they deserving of sex from.
Aileen Wuornos was mentally ill; she had a psychopathic personality and likely had ASPD and/or BPD as well. She was severely s*xually abused as a child. There are definitely red flags of someone who would become a disturbed individual, I'm not arguing against that. I'm just asking, “Why do they focus on Aileen Wuornos?”
one second i think i’m a great and cool person the other second i feel like a piece of shit and hate every little thing about myself. it’s so exhausting
Just a reminder. Those real life murderers you love will never fuck you. They will never love you. No amount of motherly love will make them love you, it will definitely make them want to kill you even moreso. Jeffypoo, Eric and Dylan, that kid with the big ears, and Ted bundy definitely don’t want to fuck an 18 year old blond haired blue eyed lilyrose depp Diet Coke girl inturupted Russian ballerina Forrest waif, nor a deftones Sanrio gorecore Asian fisher either. stop fantasizing about people who murdered women and black queer people and like, learn how to knit or something, get a hobby, make some friends.
