Modern Day Jack The Ripper So Dangerous He Faced Trial in Iron Cage Before Execution by Firing Squad

Soviet Union was terrorised by a serial killer schoolteacher for 12 years who drank his victims' blood


AP 1 JUN 2026




Those who knew Andrei Chikatilo remember him as an ordinary, grey-haired grandfather



A Soviet serial killer whose reign of terror lasted for more than a decade was thought to be so dangerous that he was wheeled into his trial in a steel cage.

Andrei Chikatilo is remembered as the Butcher of Rosto, one of the deadliest and most prolific murderers in world history. He was formally convicted in 1992 of 52 deaths over a year period and is suspected of several more.

Chikatilo was born to forced labourers in Stalins USSR during the Holodomor, a forced famine in his native Ukraine that killed more than three million people in the 1930s.




He was raised on stories of an older brother, Stepan, who had been kidnapped by starving neighbours and killed, cannibalised so that they could stay alive.
