Alvin Taylor Serial Killer Average ratng: 8,5/10 5580 reviews

A 70-year-old serial killer’s efforts to be released from the Mendota Mental Health Institute will continue this week with a hearing in Washington County Court Friday afternoon. Alvin Taylor is scheduled to appear by video from Mendota. Taylor killed four men in the mid-1980s in Wisconsin and Minnesota. One of the victims was from Washington County. Taylor was found not guilty of the crimes because of mental disease or defect and has been in Mendota for 29 years. Under the law, Taylor can apply for release every six months. Even if the Washington County judge approves Taylor’s release request, he would still have to convince judges in Dunn and Eau Claire counties that he was no longer a risk to society.

Dunn County District Attorney James Peterson said during closing arguments Friday that Taylor is a mass murderer and a serial killer and cannot safely be released, according to the Eau Claire.

I am a true crime writer working on my second book, this one about another Wisconsin serial killer, William Zamastil. I address Alvin Taylor in the new book. As a retired criminal justice professional, I believe that serial killers never get 'better', and should never be released from custody. The mere fact that they have killed multiple times should indicate to releasing authorities that killing is many things; an addiction, a sexual drive, away of existence.
The old adage 'once burned, twice shy' should ring true.
