After an abhorrent childhood filled with pain and misery, Richard veered into a life of crime. In a desperate attempt to get away from the poverty and abuse he had suffered he turned to the streets of New Jersey for acceptance. He was welcomed with open arms, eventually becoming acquainted with some of the Mafias most notorious hitmen, auto theft rackets and bootlegging operations. Over time he would become a greedy, ruthless, and callous killer knowing no bounds.
His Jekyll and Hyde like personality would help him to elude police detection for decades, fooling even those closest to him. After years of trying to pin down the Iceman law enforcement were forced to set up an undercover operation which finally captured him and brought Kuklinski to justice.
Reader Review " After reading it felt like I knew him. There's lots of detail in the reasons and thoughts behind what he did. It makes you see how some people end up turning to crime. Without the right people around them." A. Benning
