The 'Vampire king' of Fresno kills 9 children

At more than 300 pounds and with dreadlocks cascading past his waist, Marcus Wesson, 57, was not what people generally think of when they hear the word “vampire.” But, when he stepped out of his home on the afternoon of March 12, 2004, one detail perfectly fit the image of the undead — he was covered in blood. Police had been called to the house off the Golden State Freeway in Fresno to break up a domestic disturbance, a panicked call from a woman who said her child was being held captive. It quickly became the scene of mass murder. The corpses were piled in a bedroom. It took hours to figure out exactly how many there were, since the bodies were tangled up in bloody clothes. The final count was nine, all under the age of 25, the three youngest under two. All had been shot in the eye with a .22 pistol, which was found in the pile near the hand of the oldest victim. They were all still warm when police entered the room.
