About Donato Bilancia
- Donato "Walter" Bilancia, (born July 10, 1951) is an Italian serial killer who murdered seventeen people – nine women and eight men – on the Italian Riviera in the period from October 1997 to May 1998.Bilancia's inconsistent modus operandi made him difficult to identify and capture.
- There were no obvious links between the majority of his murders.
- He chose most of his victims at random, across a vast area of Northern Italy and becoming synonym for fear among the Italian Riviera population, being nicknamed Mostro della Liguria ("The Liguria Monster") and L'assassino dei treni ("Killer on the trains"). Initially attributed with only nine homicides by the Italian police, Bilancia later confessed to having killed eight other people.
- With a sentence to 13 terms of life imprisonment, and no possibility of release, Bilancia has been defined by some Italian newspapers as "the most horrifying serial killer in the history of Italy".
