The Communists used to eat children?

October 16, 1936
February 16, 1994
The pictures who know him are not at all reassuring. Evidently so wanted to prove to his poor victims, primed in ways more personable and friendly. Also because many of them were that poor helpless children. Unfortunately for them, they could not imagine that the "bravo" ladies who were faced with would pass sorrowfully down in history as one of the most monstrous serial killer known. Born in Ukraine on October 16, 1936, peasant's son, Andrei Chikatilo grew up in a small village. With the outbreak of World War II, his father was captured by the Germans: he will return home until many years later. However, very little is known about his childhood and the questions that medicine makes him revolve like a crazy looking like a personality so disturbed may have originated. The only foothold is the rumor that Chikatilo would remain overly troubled by the story of the death of his brother Stepan, first killed and then eaten by the hungry crowd, during an episode of great famine occurred in 1930 in Ukraine. No document was able to prove the existence of the elusive brother.
This alleged tragedy, for him real, the marked deeply and probably induced him to believe to have some guilt atone. Next to this nightmare, Andrei was suffering from a sexual dysfunction that made him impotent. Others interpret his affair as the product ill of glasnost and the subsequent dissolution of Soviet ideals believed all my life (Chikatilo doesn't he disdained political commitment, being an active member of the Communist Party), such as evidenced by the recent movie based on him, the terrifying "Sunil". Retracing the steps of his life are definitely a series of failures that may have undermined the fragile psychic balance, but that in the light of rationality do not seem as severe. Andrei Chikatilo in 1954 applies for enrolling at the Law Faculty of the Moscow University but is not admitted. Then, he moved to a small town north of Rostov, got a job as a telephone operator but its integration with the villagers is difficult and uncertain.
Yet his image is impeccable, as well as his loyal adaptation to the practice of the party. In 1963 Knee wedding, friend of sister Tatyana, by whom she had two sons (in 1965 and in 1969 Modu Yuri). In 1971, after many sacrifices, Chikatilo finally gets a degree in Russian literature at the free University of Art of Rostov and can begin a more fulfilling career as a teacher. Unfortunately his relationships with the students turn out for critics. It is ridiculed by the students, just loved how it happens to many teachers, but nothing would assume that behind that person all in all integrated, there is a murderer. Yet this bourgeois anonymous and unremarkable gray, hidden among the folds of the society in which he lived, was a stalker who killed more than 52 people, mostly children, after being tortured and mutilated. In some cases it was raging on his victims after death, with incidents of cannibalism. He was sentenced to death and executed in Moscow on February 16, 1994. Two mental institutions asked his body to education, offering large sums of money. Unconfirmed reports say that his remains now rest in any institution to be determined by science.
