Howard Unruh

Howard Barton Unruh (January 21, 1921 – October 19, 2009) was an American mass murderer〔("All about mass murderer Howard Unruh" ) by Katherine Ramsland〕 (sometimes classified as a spree killer〔(''Sexual homicide: Patterns and Motives'' ); by Robert Ressler, et al., Free Press, 1995.〕) who killed 13 people (including three children) during a 12-minute walk through his neighborhood on September 6, 1949, in Camden, New Jersey, when he was 28 years old.〔(Suspect in historic mass murder dies at 88 )〕 He died in 2009 after a lengthy illness at the age of 88. The incident became known as the "Walk of Death".
==Background==

Unruh was the son of Jewish father Samuel Shipley Unruh and Freda E. Vollmer. He had a younger brother, James; he and Unruh were raised by their mother after the parents separated. He grew up in East Camden, attended Cramer Junior High School, and graduated from Woodrow Wilson High School in January 1939.〔(Howard Unruh ), dvrbs.com.〕 The Woodrow Wilson High School yearbook from 1939 indicated that he was shy and that his ambition was to become a government employee.〔Ramsland, Katherine. (Rampage in Camden ), ''truTV.com''.〕
Always a reserved man, he had turned into a recluse in the three months before his spree. The World War II veteran was unemployed and lived with his mother. During the war, he was reportedly a brave tank soldier who served in the Battle of the Bulge and kept meticulous notes of every German killed, down to details of the corpse. He was honorably discharged in 1945, and returned home with a collection of medals and firearms. He decorated his bedroom with military items, and set up a target range in his basement. His mother supported him by working at a factory while Howard hung around the house and attended daily church services. He briefly attended a pharmacy course at Temple University in Philadelphia but dropped out after three months.〔Fischer, Heinz Dietrich, and Erika Fischer. (The Pulitzer Prize Archive: A History and Anthology of Award-Winning Materials in Journalism, Letters and Arts, Part 1 ), 1987. (p. 19)〕
He had trouble getting along with his neighbors, and his interactions with them deteriorated in the three months before his spree. He was considered a "mama's boy" and the subject of teasing. Unruh was harassed by neighborhood teens, who thought he was homosexual and used to make fun of him.〔(Sixty years ago today, a Camden gunman killed 13 ), ''Philadelphia Inquirer'', September 6, 2009. 〕 He was reported to have been depressed about having had "homosexual liaisons" in a Philadelphia movie theater.〔("Mass murderer Unruh, who shot 13 in 1949, dies" ) by Bruce Shipkowski, Associated Press, October 21, 2009〕
