Synopsis
Joel Rifkin (born January 20, 1959) was obsessed with Hitchcock's Frenzy as a young adult and began using prostitutes regularly. In 1989, he killed his first woman. He discarded the bodies of his victims so they could not be identified. But in June 1993, Rifkin was pulled over by the police who discovered a corpse in his car. He was convicted of murder the following year and later pleaded guilty to additional counts of murders. Rifkin an inmate at the Clinton Correctional Facility in New York.
Troubled Childhood
Serial killer. Born Joel David Rifkin on January 20, 1959, to two unwed college students. New York couple Bernard and Jeanne Rifkin adopted Joel three weeks after his birth, on February 14, 1959. Three years later they also adopted a daughter, Jan. In 1965 the family moved to East Meadow, Long Island, where Joel enrolled in Prospect Avenue Elementary School.
Rifkin had difficulty fitting in with his peers, and became a frequent target of school bullies. He was excluded from team sports and neighborhood games because of his sloping posture and slow gait. Suffering from undiagnosed dyslexia, he also struggled academically despite his 128 IQ.
As Rifkin entered his teens, he desperately tried to fit in. He joined the track team with the hopes of making friend
