Description:Also called the 0.44 Caliber Killer, Berkowitz terrorized New York City from 29 July 1976 until 31 July 1977. His killing spree left six people dead, while another seven were wounded, some for life. During his trial, he so obviously enjoyed the publicity he received that New York State enacted legislation to prevent criminals from profiting from their notoriety, laws which other states later adopted.
