May 22, 1951 - Kenneth Bianchi
Operating alongside his cousin Angelo Buono Jr., Bianchi was part of a killing partnership that preyed on women and girls across the Los Angeles hillsides in the late 1970s, a case that drew sustained national attention. His conduct after arrest — including an attempt to feign multiple personality disorder to avoid conviction — became nearly as studied as the crimes themselves, offering investigators and psychologists an early case study in calculated criminal deception.
