Bob Berdella, a serial killer who preferred male victims, kept 23-year-old Todd Stoops for two months, torturing him daily with electric shocks, anal penetration and other abuse. Berdella didn’t intentionally murder Stoops; the young man died as a result of the countless injuries inflicted by his assailant. After repeated rape, Stoops developed a rectal rupture and was bleeding profusely. Berdella treated him with animal antibiotics and injected Drano into his eyes.
Another of Berdella’s victims, Larry Pearson, was a male prostitute. He lived as Berdella’s sex slave for about six weeks and was more cooperative than the others. When he finally did try to escape, Berdella killed him.
