The Night Stalker What acts could an obsession with Satanism provoke a man to commit? Considering Richard Ramirez’s past of drug abuse, his views on reality and the world were twisted. Consumed by the sense of freedom and power that Satanism provided, he believed Satan would protect him from the consequences of his actions. With little schooling completed, Richard would come to realize that he didn’t have many options besides enlisting in the military. Lacking the self-discipline and readiness to conform to authority, he left Texas at 22 and found a home on the West Coast.

Some laud McCandless for his transcendentalist behavior and unique, nonconformist beliefs; others call McCandless a reckless fool whose impulsive actions ended up costing his life.

In Naim’s article he talks about a downside to youtube and how with manipulation, it is harder to know what is real and what is not. I agree with that point because today, there are so many people that know how to photoshop and manipulate videos and photos

When Richard Ramirez was approximately 10 years old, his father abused him and his family.

Researchers suggest that a link can be established between childhood abuse and sexual gratification in serial killers (Carolina, 2018). Brought into the world on February 29, 1960, in
