Notorious murderer
who shot 13 people in less than 15 minutes rs on
September 6th, 1949
. Born in 1921 in
Camden, NJ
. Student of
theology
and
pharmaceuticals
. Joined the
Unites States Army
in 1941 and served as a
sniper
in
Germany
during World War II. Recorded puzzling and morbidly intricate details concerning the demise of
German soldiers
he killed (ie
facial expression upon demise
). His fellow soldiers noted that he preferred to
clean his gun
or
read the Bible
than spend time with women.
Once the war was over he returned to Camden and lived a
quiet life
devoted mostly to his studies and his hobby of
gun collecting
. He built a
shooting galley
in his basement and practiced shooting every day. Over time he began to develop
paranoia
regarding his neighbors, and began to
document
in a journal everything he believed they were saying about him. With the help of his father he built a
large fence
with a gate around his house to protect him from those outside.
On September 9th he came home to find that the gate had been stolen. He calmly retrieved a
German Luger
and another gun from his collection and left his house. In about 12 minutes he
systematically murdered almost everyone in his neighborhood
. He then returned home to get more
ammunition
. The police surrounded his residence and used
tear gas
to subdue him. He
gave up without a fight
. He was immediately declared insane and sent to the
Trenton State Hospital
.
Many people joke about how much they hate their neighbors / coworkers / etc. and would like to shoot them all, but Howard Unruh did it. His most famous quote is:
"
I would have killed a thousand people, if I'd had bullets enough
.
"
