“My name is Richard Benjamin Speck (December 6, 1941 – December 5, 1991). I was an American mass murderer who I killed eight student nurses in their South Deering, Chicago, residence via stabbing, strangling, slashing their throats, or a combination of the three on the night of July 13–14, 1966. I also graped one of my victim before killing her. A ninth potential victim, student nurse Corazon Amurao, survived by hiding beneath a bed.”
