A teen mom and her newborn son, Colin Ireland, didn't have the easiest life. They moved around from home to home, homeless shelters, they were financially struggling, and Colin attended many different schools where he was constantly harassed. All throughout his childhood, pedophiles seemed to be everywhere. Colin grew to be angry, unsure how to handle his strong emotions, and mental anguish about being preyed on by these men at every turn. When he got older, instead of attempting to work on those issues, he made a New Years Resolution to become a serial killer in 1993.
