24 h. ago Were their body parts used in satanic rituals? Netflix tackles the horrific ‘Monster of Florence’ murders

It was a brutal killing spree that gripped Italy – yet so little is still known. Why were lovers murdered in their cars? Why were their sexual organs often targeted? Author Tobias Jones sifts the evidenceSome criminal cases are so vast that even the number of victims is uncertain: in the case of the unsolved “Monster of Florence” crimes that have gripped Italy for half a century, it is known that seven couples were murdered. But some say it’s eight, and at least another 16 murders have been connected to the case. The number of suspects almost matches that of the victims. First there was the pista sarda, the Sardinian line of enquiry into the swinging, pimping Vinci brothers who probably had a hand in the “first” murder in 1968. In the 1990s, a rapist, Pietro Pacciani, was convicted and then cleared. In 2000, Pacciani’s co-accused, Mario Vanni and Giancarlo Lotti, were sentenced to life and 28 years respectively for the murders committed between 1981 and 1985.Gianluca Monastra, autho...

6 d. ago Netflix’s monstrous Ed Gein series is lurid exploitation dressed up as a serious drama | Richard Lawson

Ryan Murphy’s questionable universe of serial killer tales reaches its lowest point with a morally dubious look at a grave-robbing murdererThough the first season of the anthology series Monster, produced for Netflix by Ryan Murphy, had its lurid aspects – a hunky, lustily filmed Jeffery Dahmer (Evan Peters) doing wicked things in the night – it did, admirably, try to focus as much attention on the victims of Wisconsin’s most notorious serial killer as it did on the man doing the murdering. Season two of the series turned away from that drab gloom and focused, with at least some sensitivity, on the sensational trials of the Menendez Brothers in sunny California.Season three, the Ed Gein Story, returns to midwest murk and, especially in its early episodes, makes far less of an effort to do anything other than grimly titillate. The show’s thesis makes some sense: Ed Gein, who murdered at least two people and stole the bodies of many more from their graves, was an object of intense fas...
