Serial killers who killed with the help of animals?

Guest

After reading UncontinuedProcess's topic "Mass murderous animals" this popped into my mind: is there serial killers that killed with the help of animals (or their pets?) Well, do you know some?

I know serial killers like Ian Brady owned pets but I haven't heard of any that basically used them like pokemon while attacking their victims.

There was that one guy who fed corpses to pigs but I don't think that's what you're looking for.

Well, i think it is highly unlikely to have a serial killer who killed with the help of animals, so i think i will change the discussion of that subject. Is there a killer (not a serial killer) who killed with the help of an animal?

Who's him? I'm interested.

That would be Robert Pickton. LPOTL did a series on him:

Though the animal didn't help to kill the victim, it helped a would-be Dennis Nilsen victim to be saved.

"One victim - Carl Stotter - was strangled and drowned by Nilsen, but as "Bleep" (Nilsen's dog) started licking Stotter's face, it became clear that Stotter wasn't dead. Overcome with guilt - having probably sobered up a little - Nilsen spent the next few days helping Stotter to recover, having convinced him that he had become trapped by the cord of his sleeping bag and that Nilsen was trying to save him, not strangle him."

Article on Dennis Nilsen

He ended up killing him or another victim he helped at a later time IIRC.

Thanks for the information!

Joe Ball was a murderer and suspected serial killer of up to 20 women in Texas in the 1930's who is believed to have fed the bodies of his victims to the alligators that he kept in a pond at his saloon.

Joe Metheny fed the bodies of his victims to people through his burger business. That's if you count humans as animals for this.

Not a serial killer, but Brazilian goalkeeper Bruno Fernandes Da Souza killed his wife and fed her to his dogs.
