Paul John Knowles: The Brutal Rampage of The Casanova Killer 2 Feb 2024 --- Paul John Knowles had a way with people, especially with women. His charm and good looks made people trust him and lower their guard. British journalist Sandy Fawkes described Knowles as "tall, well over six foot, broad-shouldered, narrow-hipped and as slender as a wraith" and a “cross between Robert Redford and Ryan O’Neal.” And as you will soon find out, she had a unique, personal perspective on the ruthless killer. All of this was for show, however. Beneath the confident and affable smile was hiding something dark. Ever since he was a little boy, Paul Knowles decided that rules and laws weren’t meant for him; and that he could take whatever he wanted and do whatever he pleased to anyone. His entire life was one steady escalation of brutality and sadism - from petty theft to robbery, to sex crimes, and, ultimately, to murder. A four-month-long savage killing spree left, at least, 18 people dead. In custody, Knowles showed no remorse or regrets over his actions, and, soon after, left the world the only way he knew how - in violence. → Subscribe for new videos at least twice a week! https://www.youtube.com/c/biographics?sub_confirmation=1 Love content?
