About Robert Hansen
Robert Hansen was nicknamed the “Butcher Baker” due to his work as a baker and for his serial killings. The American criminal gained notoriety for abducting, raping and murdering upwards of 17 women between 1971 and 1983 but he had previously been convicted and served jail time for a variety of crimes including theft, arson, rape, weapon offenses and larceny.
He went about his killings by abducting the women (most of whom were sex workers) at gunpoint, rape them and hunt them like wild game in a secluded area before shooting them.
Family Life
His father was a Danish immigrant baker who passed on the trade to him. He grew up as a loner due to a variety of reasons including his stutter, severe acne and strict upbringing, all of which stood in the way of him becoming popular amongst his school’s attractive girls. He was married twice and had two children.
Sentencing
He received a 461-year plus life imprisonment sentence in February 1984.
Death
He died from natural causes on August 21, 2014.
