Jerry Brudos was a shoe fetishist, serial killer, rapist, torturer and necrophiliac who stalked women around Portland, Oregon in 1968 and 1969. He was also called  The Lust Killer because he killed for his lust for women's shoes. He strangled them and stole their shoes , afterwards putting their shoes in a shoe collection he had back home.

Jerry Brudos' love for shoes began at the age of five, after he "rescued" a pair of high heel shoes from the garbage. As he grew older, his unusual interest in shoes developed into a fetish which he satisfied by breaking into homes to steal shoes and women's underwear.When he was in his teens he added violence to his repertoire and began knocking down girls, choking them until they were unconscious, then stealing their shoes.

In January 1968, Linda Slawson, 19, working as a door-to-door encyclopedia salesperson, happened to knock on Brudos' door. He later confessed to killing her, then cutting off her left foot to use as a model for his collection of stolen shoes. His last victim was Linda Salee, 22 on April, 1969 he kidnapped her from a shopping mall, brought her to his home and raped and then strangled her to death. The women who survived were able to give tips to the police, whom later ended up at his door.
