Chicago Strangler
The killer chose women  between the ages of 18 and 58  as victims. They were mostly African-American. Most of the victims were prostitutes or members of a marginalized group who had previous problems with the justice system. Almost all of the victims were strangled. They were left in unused buildings, alleys, garbage bins, parks and snowdrifts. In November 2007, one person killed two women in two days. He put their bodies in garbage cans and then set them on fire. Most of the murders were done near Washington Park in Chicago's Southside  and near Garfield Park in Western Chicago. Washington park is a high-crime area.  .
