Albert Fish

Albert Fish

Albert Fish was a serial killer, rapist, child molester, and cannibal who killed at least three children in the 1920s. He had children of his own, and was by all accounts a very kind and gentle father, and never even raised a hand on his own kids. After he cooked and ate one of his victims, he sent a letter to her parents about what she tasted like. During his trial, one psychiatrist described him as “the most deranged human being". He had the habit of sticking needles into his pelvis while masturbating and sometimes they went deep enough to get stuck. When he told this to the police, they didn't believe him until they saw an x-ray of the needles still embedded in his pelvis. He also helped the executioner position the electrodes on his body before uttering his final words, “I don't even know why I'm here.” It took two jolts to kill him.
