Flashback: Serial Killer Albert Fish

Thursday September 4, 2008
Albert Fish is known for being one of the most vile pedophiles and killers of all time, who admitted to molesting more than 400 children and torturing and killing several others. Fish would lure children away from their homes and sexually assault them after torturing them in a variety of ways. It sounds like like a case ripped from today's headlines, but Fish's crime spree began in the 1890's.
