9. William Bonin
William Bonin was known as the Freeway Killer, because he would dump the bodies of his victims near freeways. Between 1979 and 1980, William Bonin killed between 20 and 36 young men in southern California after sexually assaulting and torturing them. In addition to these murders, William Bonin was accused of 15 other murders and convicted of 14 of them. Bonin was a sex offender who had been paroled twice. Before Bonin died by lethal injection at San Quentin State Prison in 1996, he stated these words, which can be viewed as eerily sage advice: “I would suggest that when a person has a thought of doing anything serious against the law, that before they did that they should go to a quiet place and think about it seriously.”
