Karol Kot

Karol Kot (18 December 1946 – 16 May 1968) was a Polish serial killer. Kot terrorized Kraków, the city he was born and raised in, with atrocious crimes for two years before he was finally captured on 12 July 1966. Due to the seemingly random choices of victims, which included children and elderly people, Kot was nicknamed "the vampire of Kraków". Kot had passed the school-leaving examinations in high school and planned to become a student at an Officer Candidate School. After the trial, in which he pleaded guilty of the crimes he was charged with, he was sentenced to death, which was announced on 14 July 1967. The death penalty was carried out on 16 May 1968 and Kot was executed at the age of 21. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karol_Kot
