On July 29, 1976, Sam Berkowitz (aka the Son of Sam) claimed his first victim in New York. Almost a year later, he stopped. He had killed 13 people and injured 6 more. The name Son of Sam came from his neighbor Sam Carr.
A few years earlier, Berkowitz had shot Carr's dog for barking and keeping Berkowitz awake at night. Berkowitz claimed that after the black Labrador had recuperated, it began to speak to him with the Devil's voice. Of course, it told him to "Kill. Kill"
