Online Killers chronicles the stories of the sinister individuals who have used the Web to work unimaginable evil from the privacy of their own homes. The authors take readers on a cyber journey to a place where the dim flicker of LCD screens illuminates unwitting women and children falling into disastrous circumstances. It might start in a chat room and lead to a harmless cyber-date, but all too quickly it devolves into capture, torture, and death.
This cautionary collection reveals many dark tales and destroys commonly held myths, including the belief that it's safe to meet someone after knowing them online for many months — predators actually gain additional satisfaction from stalking their victims over long periods of time.
Online Killers details tales too horrific to imagine, including the case of schoolteacher Janet Longhurst who was murdered by an obsessive necrophiliac, and story of young and beautiful Anastasia Solovyova, the would-be bride whose new life ended in her brutal death.
