OK, I have this class called "Intro to Law&Justice." Well, my teacher gave us an assignment basically a report on a serial killer. I decided to start reseacrhing him today and my oh my, is he mess up. Well, here is my(website is kind of graphic) serial killer (http://www.prairieghosts.com/fish.html). If I do say so myself, this has got to be one of the most messed up seial killers ever. I knew nothing prior before I chose him. I chose him because of his last name, lol. But, while reading that web page about him, it made me remmember that I saw a HistoryChannel special on him. I just thought it'd be neat to share the guy I'm doing my report on.

Ah yes, Albert Fish, quite a character to say the least. I find serial killers to be pretty interesting and all the books I have on them definitely mention Fish. He is a unique fellow, although there are many others that are unusual.

For my third-year university course in forensic psychology, I'm doing a paper on pedophilia, typologies of it, treatments for it, etc... . If you're going to research something on human behavior even if it pertains to the law, then you may deal with an ordinary person or one of the most unusual people ever.

If Fish grosses you out, then why not pick another serial killer?

He may gross me out, but I'm not going to change my serial killer. We do like a presentation on our serial killer and he has plenty of information for me to get a good grade.

I'm curious, since it is for a law paper, what is the presentation focus on? Is it the psychological aspects of Fish, his legal sentencing, etc...?

Just presenting and describing our killer, and just give background and such on him. Nothing too complicated.
