Arthur Shawcross "Genesee River Killer" Crime Scene Pictures & Bio
Shawcross's first known violent crimes occurred in 1972 when he was convicted of the sexual assault and murder of two children in Watertown, New York. He was sentenced to 25 years in prison but was released on parole in 1987 after serving just 14 years, a decision that later came under severe criticism. Upon his release, Shawcross moved to the Rochester area, where he began killing again, primarily targeting sex workers. His method of operation typically involved luring women to secluded areas, where he would then murder them. The bodies of his victims were often found near the Genesee River, hence his nickname. The Genesee River killings sparked fear and outrage in the Rochester community. Shawcross was eventually apprehended in January 1990, largely due to police surveillance and evidence linking him to the victims. In November 1990, he was found guilty of 10 counts of second-degree murder and was sentenced to 250 years in prison. |

Re: Arthur Shawcross "Genesee River Killer" Crime Scene Pictures & Bio
Starting in March 1988, Shawcross began murdering prostitutes in the area, claiming 11 victims before his capture less than two years later. The victims were:
They were usually strangled and battered to death, and were often mutilated as well. Most of them were found near the Genesee River. All the victims were murdered in Monroe County, except for Gibson, who was killed in neighboring Wayne County. After the last victim's body was found in January 1990, the police decided not to remove it and instead keep surveillance on the area, based on a psychological profile that suggested the killer would return to the scene. Sure enough, Shawcross was spotted masturbating as he sat in his car on a bridge over the creek in which the body of his final victim was floating. He was arrested and eventually confessed in custody. Crime Scene Pictures From His Second Killing Spree (including a picture of the skeletal remains of the little girl he killed in the 70s) ![]() |
