Love-Blog: First-Love News Chessboard killer says his first murder was like 'first love': October 9, 2007 MOSCOW, October 9 (RIA Novosti) - Alexander Pichushkin, charged with 49 murders and three attempted murders, described in detail his first killing in a court hearing on Tuesday, and compared it to falling in love for the first time. The 33-year-old former supermarket worker also claimed to have killed a total of 63 people - one short of his target figure, the number of squares on a chessboard. "I have been charged over 52 episodes... I thought it would be unfair to forget about the other 11," he said, speaking from his cage in the courtroom. When the judge interrupted him, saying he could only testify on victims listed in the case, he retorted: "So 63 doesn't interest you? Even though the bodies have been found?" Pichushkin, who killed most of his victims between 2001 and 2006 in wooded areas of south Moscow's Bitsa Park, told the court he had begun killing in 1992, long before his main spree. He recounted his first murder, when he strangled a 19-year-old classmate named Odeychuk, and threw him down a well. The two young men had planned to murder an acquaintance, but when Pichushkin realized that his accomplice was incapable of seeing the job through, he did away with him, the killer told the court. "For him it was a game, but for me it was no game. Not everyone is capable of killing. I realized that he could not be an accomplice, and I decided to kill him." "A first murder is like falling in love for the first time - unforgettable," he said. "It made a very long-lasting impression on me, and for 14 years I did as I pleased. I got careless, so there is no need for the police to take credit for catching me... I'm a professional." Pichushkin was arrested in Bitsa Park on June 16, 2006, 11 days after finishing off his final victim and leaving her body in a stream running through the park. During Tuesday's hearings, Pichushkin pleaded guilty to four of the five counts of murder currently under consideration in court. Most of the self-professed killer's targets were elderly people walking alone in the park, but three were women and one was a child. Pichushkin said that initially he dumped the bodies in nearby sewage works, but became frustrated that his murder spree was going unnoticed and began leaving the bodies out in the open. The killer would lure his victims into the woods, often inviting them to drink with him, and would murder them by battering them on the back of the head with a heavy object, usually a hammer. Love Blog Comment: Love blog is shocked! What else could be the reason of Alexander Pichushkin killing so many people other than the fact that he 'loved' doing so, as he says too? He had fallen in love with it - his first love, so to say! Is falling in love an obsession in itself? And more so if the falling is there for the first time ever! Here in my love blog, I'm talking of the love that we call so on earth in our self-caged lives. Is the way we love the real love that comes out of our passion for life, or is it a mere obsession coming out of our emotions that stand nowhere when it comes to living life the healthy way. So, should we not 'fall' in love ever? Never! We should 'be' in love. We should 'play', with love. Not to win, but for fun! Then it'll no more be a question of whether it's your first love or it's the last. Alexander was playing to 'win' in order to complete his 64 squares. And we give our obsessions the pious name of love! Wanna have some bidding fun with 'First Love' on ebay auction? You might grab a bargain or two!
