Killer Directs Traffic While Wearing Mother’s Skin
May 20th, 2005 | researchmaterial
The 42-year-old, identified only as RZ, hit her head with a heavy blunt instrument. He then cut her throat and chopped off both her arms. Then, with a long–bladed meat knife used for filleting meat from bones, he spent eight hours skinning the 76-year-old.
After the killing, the man dressed himself in his mother’s skin and took to the streets of Vlaardingen, Holland, on the night of February 4.
He was seen directing traffic in her skin and dressed in one of her dresses as he recited texts from the Bible…
is the award-winning creator of graphic novels such as 
Maybe he wasn’t allowed to live in her basement anymore?
“The killing has chilling similarities to Hollywood horror flick The Silence Of The Lambs in which transsexual psycho Buffalo Bill, played by Ted Levine, kidnaps and murders girls for their skin.”
You’d think Ed Gein might have gotten a mention. Of course Hollywood > reality.
I get the feeling he was overthinkng the whole crazy angle. Wearing skin, directing traffic, AND reciting the Bible? Even the Crazy Cat Lady thinks that’s overkill.
*sigh*
Are there no original serial killers left in the world? “OOO – I’ll wear my mother’s skin while I kill another woman.” Thanks for thinking on your own, there, squire.
I agree with Rob, it would have been nice to reference Ed Gein since Buffalo Bill was based on him.
Well, that’s one way to return to the womb—by wrapping the skin of your mother around you—
I wonder what verses from the Bible he was quoting? Certainly not “Honor thy Father and mother”. Maybe, “In my mother’s womb you knew me?”
And the last original serial killer was Jack the Ripper. The rest are just variations of a theme.
Come on, she named him Arsehead, the bitch got off lightly.
Can you imagine how this guy felt when the police let him know Mother’s Day was a week and a half ago? I bet his face was red. And moms, don’t ride your children for getting you a knife set as a gift either. Sometimes it is the thought that counts.
Well…it\’s something we\’ve all wanted to do at some point isn\’t it?
I just don’t know how a person could do something like that to a mother.
Sorry, blockquote tag gone awry. Was trying to quote Scott P and messed it up.
completely random fact included in original article:
“The chiller also stars Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter.”
it’s only a matter of time before they blame Psycho and Silence of Lambs for it cause no one goes mental without having watched a movie first. Personnally I’m planning on blaming Barney if I ever go nuts…
Since he was also quoting Biblical passages, I look forward to calls for the Bible to be made illegal.
DR. LECTER:
Billy’s not a real transsexual, but he
thinks he is. He tries to be. He’s tried
to be a lot of things, I expect.
Thomas Harris should sue for plagiarism.
It’s absurd that the part of this artical I find over the top and apalling is that he had to wear her skin AND her dress. You would think the former would make the latter rather redundant.
The last time I was in Holland I did notice there seemed to be more old people out and about than usual. Maybe this guy got caught because he was a crazy god botherer. Maybe the less crazy mother skinners don’t get caught. Maybe the elderly old dear I saw carrying 15 bags of shopping home along a canal was actually a 25 year old wearing the latest fashion accessory… makes you think. And in the UK we think banning hooded tops is the solution to all our woes.
The killing, skinning, skin-wearing, dress-wearing bit is all straightforward enough and the Bible is standard for your general purpose lunatic, but why was he directing traffic? Was she a traffic warden? That part really messes up my amateur-Freudian theory behind the whole thing.
Blueish, he might have been nuts but who wants their mum to be naked in public?
I’ll never make it as a psychopath. I can’t focus for 8 hours straight on anything.
Well, it helps restore my faith in humanity. And the bible.
Of course – The BIBLE. Never The Beatles. Never Walt Whitman. ALWAYS THE BIBLE.
