Pedro Alonso López: "The Monster of the Andes"

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the case of Pedro Alonso López. In the late 1970s, López terrorized young girls across Colombia, Peru, and Ecuador, amassing a suspected victim count of more than 300. López was dubbed “The Monster of the Andes” due to the sheer horror and depravity of his crimes – and his own admission of enjoying the suffering of his vulnerable victims. Candice examines how López’s troubled and tragic upbringing initially led him into a life of crime, and explores how a man transformed into a monster.
