One of the women that influenced us to use this idea was an actual female serial killer named Dorthea Puente and this is a brief summary of her crimes.
Number of Victims: 3-9
In the mid-1980s, Puente ran a boarding house for the elderly. Puente stole from her boarders, and eventually began murdering them (usually by poisoning).
In 1985, Puente had a handyman dump a box of “junk” – really a decomposing human body – along a river bank where it was later found by a fisherman.
Police began to investigate Puente and her “missing” tenants; they eventually found seven bodies buried on her property, although Puente maintained that her boarders died of natural causes.
After her trial in 1992, Puente was sentenced to life imprisonment. She died in 2011 at the Central California Women’s Facility in California.
