Showing results for "Luca" in Murder

On June 5, 1983, Henry Lee Lucas was arrested for the unauthorised possession of a handgun. The police believed that he was linked to the disappearance of two females, so they used the opportunity to apply pressure and encourage a confession. After four days in custody, Lucas confessed to killing the two women.

Teenager Lucas Leonard made shocking admissions in front of the altar - he'd practiced witchcraft, conspired to murder his parents, and committed unspeakable crimes. The confessions earned him a brutal beating by a gang of angry church members, including his parents and sister. Lucas was brought to the hospital dead, awakening the sleepy community of Chadwicks, New York, to the horror that had been lurking next door. Nine members of Lucas' church would eventually find themselves facing murder-related charges. But how did they get to that point? And what made Lucas confess?

El 5 de junio de 1983, Henry Lee Lucas fue arrestado por posesión ilegal de un arma de fuego. Tras cuatro días detenido, Lucas confesó haber matado a esas dos mujeres. Lo que ocurrió en los meses siguientes fue tan peculiar como fascinante. Lucas confesó haber asesinado, violado y mutilado a cientos de mujeres más junto a su amigo y amante Ottis Toole, bajo la influencia de una secta satánica. Pero los investigadores descubrieron que Lucas confesaba crímenes que se contradecían unos con otros, poniendo en duda la diferencia entre la realidad y la ficción.
