Luckily they survived, and nobody ever picked on Richard Kuklinski again.īy the time he hit adulthood it is believed that Richard was already responsible for dozens of deaths he was a 6’5″, 300 pound sociopath with complete disregard for the lives of those around him. You’d think that this would’ve been enough to satiate the young man’s need for revenge, but Richard still wasn’t done he grabbed a metal pole, hunted down the rest of Charlie’s gang, and tried his damndest to beat all of them to death as well. Charlie’s body was never recovered – this killer always did have a knack for disposing of his victims. Now, keep in mind Richard’s young age when this happened after the beating this young killer knocked all of his victim’s teeth out with a hammer, took a hatchet and chopped off distinguishing body parts such as fingers, then Richard stole a vehicle and dumped his victim’s corpse off a bridge. One day, after a particularly brutal beating, Richard found Charlie while he was alone and beat him to death with a wooden dowel. In 1948, 13 year old Richard claimed his first victim Charlie Lane was a neighborhood bully and a gang leader of sorts. Soon after this, Richard’s father abandoned the family, and the kids were left to be raised in poverty by their abusive mother.
Mom covered for her man, and police were told that the boy had died of an accidental fall. He came from an extremely abusive family, so very violent that when Richard was only 5 years old his alcoholic father beat his 7 year old brother, Florian, to death. Serials often carefully choose their prey, and there are cool down periods between kills – an amount of time before their killing cycle begins again.Īs a child Richard Kuklinski exhibited all of the earmarks of a budding serial killer, including the MacDonald Triad (bed wetting, fire starting, and animal cruelty). They want to feel powerful, they enjoy the excitement, there may be a sexual perversion which they need to fulfill, and sometimes it’s for financial gain. A serial killer, on the other hand, murders for his/her own personal reasons. His (or her) victims are chosen for them, their motivation is financial, career advancement, or duty. I’m sure most of you reading this don’t need any clarification on this subject, but there’s always someone who doesn’t know – and that’s okay! A hitman is a contract killer, it is his job to murder.
There is an ongoing debate as to whether Richard Kuklinski was a serial killer or a hitman – it’s usually agreed upon by professionals that an individual can not be both.īefore we get into Richard, let’s quickly establish some of the differences between a hitman and a serial.
