Albert Fish: The Gray Man Who Hunted Children

Albert Fish, born in 1870, murdered at least three children between 1924 and 1928, including 11-year-old Grace Budd, whose dismembered remains he cannibalized. Arrested in 1930 and convicted in 1936, Fish claimed to have killed over 100 children across America before his execution.

On March 30, 1981, outside the Washington Hilton Hotel, a 25-year-old man fired six shots at President Ronald Reagan. The assassination attempt wounded the president and three others, and set in motion events that would reshape U.S. law and national security policy.
