Houston has seen its share of gruesome crimes over the years, dating back to the apparent poisoning of Rice University benefactor William Marsh Rice in 1900. But the following can be counted among the most unsettling in recent history.
1970-1973 - Houston s most notorious serial killings - Elmer Wayne Henley Jr., Dean Corll and David Owen Brooks committed a series of murders in which at least 28 teenage boys and young men were abducted, tortured, raped and murdered. Many were lured to Corill s home in Pasadena where they died. Most of their bodies were recovered from Corll’s southwest Houston boat shed. Others were buried in remote areas of East Texas and at the beach. Henley, now 65 and serving six life sentences, said he shot and killed Corll self-defense. Brooks died in prison of COVID-19 last year.
