About this ebook
The chilling true story of a seemingly upstanding citizen who turned out to be a sadistic serial killer, as told by a master of true crime.
John Edward Robinson appeared to be a model citizen - a 56-year-old grandfather, entrepreneur, and Eagle Scout who was even honored as "Man of the Year" at a Kansas City charity. But behind this facade lurked a sexual deviate known as "Slavemaster," with a taste for sadomasochistic rituals of extreme domination, torture, and even murder.
For fifteen years, Robinson trawled the Web, masquerading as a philanthropist and promising unsuspecting women money and adventure. But in the summer of 2000, the decomposed remains of two women were discovered in barrels on Robinson's farm, and three other bodies were found in storage units. And authorities soon realized this was only the beginning of the Slavemaster's trail of unspeakable crimes.
Depraved is a chilling account of sadistic murder in the American heartland, meticulously researched and vividly told by true crime master John Glatt. This harrowing journey into the depths of human evil is not for the faint of heart, but it is a must-read for any true crime aficionado seeking to understand the darkest corners of the criminal mind.
