Richard Speck had always told police that he didn’t remember what happened the night of the murders; However, a video of Speck talking about the murders to another inmate surfaced in May 1996, and it was clear that Speck had actually remembered a lot of details from the night. After all those years, you might think he had time to develop some remorse but when the inmate in the video asked Speck how he felt after killing the nurses, he responded with, “Like I always felt; have no feeling. If you’re asking if I felt sorry, no” (Harrington).

Speck was born into a tumultuous low-income family while being 1 of 8 kids. He spent most of his youth growing up in Dallas, Texas where he regularly had run-ins with law enforcement due to his excessive drinking and repetition of public disturbances. Speck first lived in Texas and then moved in with his sister while continuing to add lines to his rap sheet. Richard was trying to find work and would check in at the National Maritime Union hiring hall in hopes of receiving an assignment to a vessel. After a few days of not being assigned anything, Speck began his murderous rampage by sexually assaulting and robbing Ella Mae Hooper, a local woman he met at a bar.

His fetishes with women’s footwear still continued to grow and he ended up murdering 4 women because of it. When Brudos got caught, it was because he thought he was going on a date with a woman but when he got there, the police were already there waiting to arrest him. The police were able to obtain a search warrant for his house where they found a bunch of evidence including photos of the victims. During his interrogation, he admitted to the four murders as well as other assaults and attempted kidnappings.

After Speck's previous convictions in his youthhe later began to find work elsewhere and he found it on a ship. He was then later questioned by police on the whereabouts of four missing females as the ship was near where the victims went missing. Although even after asking Speck the police were still never able to identify Speck for this crime. This incident still doesn’t pale in comparison to the crime that he later on goes on to commit on July 13, 1966.
