The Boston Strangler
”My grandmother actually went to school with the infamous Boston Strangler. Apparently, she had a run-in with him one day when he hit on her and said some inappropriate stuff. But my grandma wasn’t having any of it, so she took matters into her own hands and hit him in the head with a book. I mean, I guess that’s one way to handle a creep, right?”
The Boston Strangler, whose real name was Albert DeSalvo, had a pretty messed up personal life. He was a father of six, but he had a history of violence towards women, including his own wife. He was known for breaking into homes and attacking women, often using their own stockings to strangle them. It’s pretty terrifying to think about what might have happened if this person’s grandma hadn’t stood up to him that day.
