Steven David Catlin (born 1944) is an American convicted serial killer. His crimes were depicted in the 1993 television movie titled ''Poisoned by Love: The Kern County Murders'' also known as ''Murder So Sweet'', where he was portrayed by Harry Hamlin. He is currently located in San Quentin State Prison serving life imprisonment. ==Early life== Adopted as an infant, during 1944, by Glenn and Martha Catlin, of Kern County, California, Steven moved to Bakersfield with his new parents in the early 1950s. Dropping out of high school, he showed no interest in honest work and was arrested on forgery charges at age nineteen, serving nine months in a California Youth Authority camp. Catlin's first marriage was stormy and violent, domestic problems exacerbated by his abuse of drugs. In 1966, he acquired a second wife without divorcing the first, employing a pseudonym on the marriage license. A few months after the second, bogus wedding, he was picked up for stealing a credit card at the gas station where he worked. The judge called Catlin an addict and packed him off to the state prison at Chino, where he spent the next three years. Upon release, Catlin divorced his first wife and legally remarried his second, using his real name, but the relationship was already doomed. The couple separated after ten months, and Catlin was married a third time, divorcing that wife eight months later. A fourth wife - Joyce—was acquired in short order, but she would prove less fortunate than her predecessor in escaping from a dead-end marriage. Catlin's fascination with cars led to a job with the pit crew of racer Glendon Emery, based in Fresno, California. Infatuated with Emery's step-daughter, Catlin began to court her while still married to Joyce. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Steven David Catlin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
