The author of the true crime "masterpiece" Lobster Boy traces a brutal killer's history across two decades of slipping past the legal system ( The Guardian ). When police in Tampa, Florida, arrested Larry Singleton in 1997 for brutally murdering prostitute Roxanne Hayes, they soon realized it wasn't the man's first violent attack. Back in 1978 he had gained notoriety as "the Mad Chopper" for raping and cutting off the arms of 15-year-old Mary Vincent on a patch of desolate, sun-scorched land 5 miles off the highway near Modesto, California. When Singleton was let out of prison on supervised parole after serving only 8 years for his crimes, no community in California would accept him.
