                          [ HENRY LEE LUCAS ]

 Henry Lee Lucas was born on Aug. 23, 1936 in a small Virginia community named 
Blacksburg. It is here where (like all murderous perverse phsycos) Lucas's 
warped outlook on life started. He lived in a small two bed room cabin with 
His mother Viola, Father Anderson, and his eight brothers and sisters. His 
Mother would whore herself out to makes ends meet while his father known as 
"No Legs Andy" would try to sell pencils on road sides. His siblings were
later shipped off to foster homes, relatives homes, and of course, correctional 
/rehabilitation facilities, but not ol' Henry, he was kept at home with his
mother, who would often beat both him and his father. There were several 
incidents where she would force them to watch her engage in intercourse with
customers. In 1943, Henry went to school. She would often send him off to
school wearing her old dresses with no shoes, and was beaten when he dared
mention that his teachers insisted that he dressed any different. 

  As a teenager, he often gave in to his hormones and had sex with his half
brother or (if he wasn't in the mood) half dead animals whose throats he slit
before hand. At the age of 17, his half brother "accidentally" stuck a knife
into Henry's left eye. It was here where he would show his importance in the
world, and adopted the name "The 0ne Eyed drifter". He often spent time in 
and out of jail. His first, would be in 1954 when he was convicted of numourous 
burglary charges. He would then spend six years in the Virginia State Prison.
Henry Lee Lucas was later released on Sept. 2, 1959. He then went to live with
his sister in Tecumseh, Mich. His mother, strongly disagreed with his decision
and insisted that he move back to Virginia with her. When Henry refused, she 
followed him to Michigan.

  On the night of Jan. 11, 1960, Henry would kill his mother, Viola with a
pocket knife to the throat. He even confessed to have repeatedly raped the
corpse until it became cold and stiff. In March 1960, he was convicted of 2nd 
degree murder and all though attempting suicide twice, was paroled in 1970 after 
only serving 10 years. Soon after this, Henry was thrown in the slammer again 
for trying to kidnap and rape two teenaged girls. He was sent back to his old 
cell where he stayed til he was 39. He was release in August of 1975, and became 
a drifter, who just wanted to stay out of the laws way.

  While in Jacksonville, Fl., Lucas stopped at a resturant where he shared a
bowl of soup with a man named Ottis Toole, a part-time transvestite that got
hard when setting things on fire. They would later become lovers and Henry
would move in with Ottis, Ottis's neice Becky, and Ottis's mother. In 1981, 
Ottis's mother died, forcing them to find else where to live. The trio would
then wonder around from place to place. In 1982, they split up, Ottis went on 
his own way, while His pre-teen neice Becky (Henry's new lover), and Henry 
went to live in Ringgold, Texas where he would work for a man named Ruben Moore
as a roofer. Lucas once said, "That was the best part of my life. I built myself 
an apartment there and worked as a roofer on Moore's crew. I bought a car and
had what furniture I could buy for the house. I had a TV and stuff like that."
Becky posing as Henry's wife, was homesick. She wanted to go home. In June of
1983, Henry was taken into police custody on weapons charges where he confessed
to two murders, one of his victims being his Lover, Becky Powel.

  Henry took investigators to the scene and described what happened next. 
"So we went back first to that little tree over there as you go off on the 
road...and we kept arguing, cussing at each other, and...she hauled off and 
hit me upside the head, and that was it. That's when I hit her with the knife. 
I just picked it up off the blanket, brought it around, hit her right in the 
chest with it. And she just sorta sat there for a little bit and then dropped 
over, ya know. I cut her up into little teeny pieces and stuffed her into three
pillows... I stuffed all of her in there except her legs." Skeletal remains 
were found at the site to be those of a white girl around the same height, 
weight, and age of Becky. Henry was once again charged with murder.

  In June 1983. Henry was once again on trial. It is here, on the stand, about
to be prosecuted, that he confessed to hundreds of killings. After he was
sentenced to life in prison, he stood up, smiled, and told the prosecuter that
he did a "good job". 

 There are 600+ other murders that would later be confessed by Henry, MANY of
which that his buddy Ottis Toole had helped with, whom was serving time for 
arson in another state at that time. He drew detailed sketches and wrote in 
depth descriptions for MOST of his killings. Authorities from all over the 
United States were requesting saliva, fingerprints, and hair from Henry Lee, 
heck, there even was a time that an investigator stated that he'd run out of 
pubic hair to send people. Most of these murders have turned up to reveal Mr.
Henry's love and obsession for dismemberment, necrophilia, and cannibalism.


                     [ Reunited and it feels SO good ]
 
 Ottis Toole: Just like that Mexican wasn't going to let me out of the
       house. I took an axe and chopped him all up. What made me... I've 
       been meaning to ask you... that time when I cooked some of these 
       people? Why'd I do that?
      
 Henry Lucas: I think it was just the hands doing it. I know a lot of
            things we done, in human sight, are impossible to believe.

 Ottis Toole: When we took 'em out and cut 'em up... remember one time I 
              said I wanted me some ribs? Did that make me a cannibal?

 Henry Lucas: You wasn't a cannibal. It's the force of the devil, something
       forced on us that we can't change. There's no reason denying what we
       become. We know what we are. Ottis, you know everything you say is
       going on tape here?

 Ottis Toole: I know... Remember how I liked to pour some blood out on them?
