MILESTONES, Page 67
DIED. Richard Speck, 49, drifter whose 1966 slaughter of
eight student nurses in a Chicago residence horrified the nation;
of a heart attack; in the Stateville Correctional Center in
Joliet, Ill. Late on a July night, Speck broke into a South Side
townhouse and stabbed and strangled eight of nine roommates. The
sole survivor escaped by hiding under a bed. Speck was captured
after an emergency-room surgeon, who was treating Speck
following a suicide attempt, spotted on his arm a BORN TO RAISE
HELL tattoo that the survivor had described.
