Biography
According to the memoirs of Golovkin's classmate Armen Grigoryan: “In high school, Sergei was tall, strong, while stooping and pimply. He had no interest in girls or anything at all."
Another classmate recalled: “The girls liked guys well dressed and passionate about music. And he was stooped, pimply, and no one paid attention to him.
The beginning of a series of murders. 1986
He committed his first murder in April 1986. Leaving the train at the station Catuar, Savelovsky direction, he went into the forest, where he met fifteen-year-old Andrei Pavlov, then, threatening with a knife, dragged him into the forest, raped, strangled and abused the corpse.
The second murder - July 1986. After lying in wait at the Zvezdny pioneer camp (village Ugryumovo, Odintsovsky district) of twelve-year-old Andrei Gulyaev, Golovkin, threatening with a knife, tied him up, took him into the forest, raped him, then strangled him. Then he subjected the corpse to various manipulations (cut off the genitals, head, cut abdominal cavity, withdrew internal organs) .
Four days after the murder of Gulyaev, the corpse of a sixteen-year-old teenager was found in the Odintsovo district. 35 stab wounds were counted on his body. The corpse was dismembered. Golovkin later pleaded not guilty in this episode, and he did not appear in court.
"Fisher"
During the investigation, at one of the interrogations, an acquaintance of one of the victims told how he met a man who introduced himself as Fisher and had a tattoo on right hand in the form of a dagger entwined with a snake and the inscription "Fischer". Over time, it turned out that it was a teenager's fantasy, but the investigation had been developing a false lead for a long time, and the nickname "Fisher" was firmly entrenched in a maniac, rumors about which began to spread rapidly throughout Moscow and the Moscow region. The wide resonance forced Golovkin to stop killing for a while.
Later, Golovkin himself introduced himself to the victims as Fischer.
Continuation of the series. The appearance of the car and the garage. 1989-1992
In 1988, Golovkin purchased a beige VAZ-2103 car. With his help, in 1989, he committed the third proven murder.
Further, in 1990, he equipped a basement in his garage, where from August 1990 to September 1992 he killed eight teenagers aged 10 to 15 years, including twice several people at once. In his confession, Golovkin noted:
“In 1990, I dug out a cellar, where at first I was going to make a workshop. But then the idea came to me to use the cellar for sexual acts and crimes. In the month of August 1991, driving by car past with. Assumption, I saw a boy of about ten years old at the bus stop, who asked me to stop and give him a lift to the village. Gorki-10. Fraudulently, I brought him to my garage, where in the underground I committed violent depraved acts with him in the mouth and anus. Then I was short-circuited, and I did not understand my actions. I killed him (hung), then removed the skin and dismembered the corpse. I salted the skin (I don’t know why), then, in parts, in two steps, I took the corpse into the forest not far from the Polyany sanatorium and buried it there.
In the materials of the criminal case, a description of such an episode was given:
After several violent sexual acts, Golovkin tied the teenager's hands and strangled him by throwing a rope with a noose over the stairs. Then, making sure that the child was dead, he hung him by the legs on a hook built into the wall, cut off his nose and ears, severed his head, inflicted many blows with a knife on the body, and cut out the internal and genital organs. With the help of anatomical knives and an ax, he dismembered the corpse, cut out soft tissues, fried them on a blowtorch and ate them. Parts of the body, except for the head, were taken to the forest and buried. The killer kept the severed head in the garage. He opened the skull, burned out the brain with a blowtorch, separated the soft tissues, and later showed the skull of Sergei P. to other victims for intimidation.
In September 1992, Golovkin raped and killed three boys at once, whom he lured into his garage by offering to steal from a warehouse. Golovkin tortured and raped the last of them for 12 hours, after which he hanged him and went to work.
.I told these three that along with them there would be eleven boys on my account, I established the order, telling the children who would die for whom. I dismembered Sh. in front of E., while showing the internal organs and giving anatomical explanations. The boy survived all this calmly, without hysteria, sometimes he just turned away.
On October 5, 1992, three weeks after the murder, the corpses of the last three victims were discovered by mushroom pickers. Having established the identity of the dead, the investigators visited the school where they studied. One of the classmates during the interrogation pointed to Sergei Golovkin as the person who drove him and the last three boys killed at the same time on September 14, 1992 from the Zhavoronki station. According to him, Golovkin that evening hinted at the possibility of committing a robbery. The next day, the witness could not go to Moscow with friends, and a maniac waiting in a car near the station persuaded three boys to rob a stall, completely forgetting that he had brought another boy the day before.
Golovkin was put under surveillance. October 19, 1992 he was detained. For Golovkin, this was a surprise, but during interrogation he behaved calmly and denied guilt. Investigators Kostarev and Bakin decided to release Golovkin, while setting him under covert surveillance. But the policeman on duty, violating the order, put Golovkin in solitary confinement. He spent the night alone, and on the morning of October 20 he asked for interrogation and confessed to Kostarev in the last triple murder. On October 21, 1992, his garage was searched and, going down to the cellar, they found evidence: a baby bath with burnt layers of skin and blood, clothes, belongings of the dead, and so on.
Golovkin confessed in 11 episodes and showed the investigators in detail the places of murders and burials. Of the 11 victims, the remains of only one boy, killed in August 1990, were not found - Fisher kept his skull in the basement, but then threw it away. During the investigation, he behaved calmly, monotonously talked about the murders, and sometimes joked.
Judgment and execution
The trial was held behind closed doors. Golovkin was declared sane, with signs of schizoid psychopathy
The Fischer case, according to Sergey Alexandrovich Golovkin's passport, was one of the most high-profile maniac cases in the Soviet Union. The investigation and trial of him took place at about the same time as the world-famous Rostov maniac Chikatilo. Golovkin became the last criminal in the USSR to be sentenced to capital punishment.
After his execution, the country adopted a moratorium on the death penalty. Dozens of tortured children and teenagers - this is the "track record" of the Moscow serial killer, whom the country remembers by the name "Fischer".
Childhood maniac
Sergey Golovkin grew up in a typical dysfunctional family. The future maniac was brought up by a despotic alcoholic father and a harsh, devoid of tenderness for his son mother. Parents regularly scandalized and scoffed at Sergey in every possible way.
For example, his enuresis was "treated" by pouring cold water. The boy developed a deep hatred for this procedure. As an adult, he bathed only occasionally. Disregard for hygiene did not at all add to Golovkin's popularity with the opposite sex.
IN elite school where the future maniac studied, he was a real outcast. The poor, clumsy boy shunned his peers. Tried to be in the shadows. The boys often poisoned Sergei, forever sowing hatred for male schoolchildren in his soul. It is from this category that Golovkin will choose his victims. He "trained to kill" on cats and fish.
The criminal way of revenge
Having matured, Golovkin went to work as a livestock specialist at the Moscow Stud No. 1. This is no coincidence: Sergei experienced an unhealthy attraction to these animals. Women did not attract him at all, because they were associated with a cruel mother.
The crisis in Golovkin's mental state occurred while studying at the Timiryazev Academy. He was severely beaten by his peers. The thought of revenge after this incident began to literally excite him. Later, working at a stud farm helped him bond with his victims. The boys, who were not indifferent to noble animals, were imbued with confidence in a man who knew horses so well.
Victims of a maniac
Golovkin committed his first crime in 1984. He lured the boy from the pioneer camp "Romantic" into the forest, threatening him with a knife. Then hung up, section. The strangled child lost consciousness. This saved his life. So far inexperienced, the maniac took the victim out of the noose and left it in the forest. Thanks to this, the boy survived.
Only 2 years later Golovkin killed his victim for the first time. This time, the maniac took out all his fury on the teenager; tortured him, cut up his whole body. The corpse found after that caused a terrible commotion in Moscow. When asked possible witnesses, one of them lied and led the investigation on the wrong track.
Atrocities and execution
He said that the suspect had a tattoo on his arm (a snake wrapped around a stiletto) and the inscription "Fischer". This sign was passed on to all patrolmen. After that, the maniac was called either "Fischer" or "Boa". In total, Golovkin killed 11 children (these are only the ones he confessed to killing). For several years, Fisher became a real horror of Moscow and its environs.

It seems very interesting to consider the influence of fundamental personality traits on the manner of action of sex offenders and the formation of their behavioral "handwriting". A correct understanding of the mechanisms of "crystallization" of a criminal personality and the isolation of the essential behavioral features of a sexual maniac often enables law enforcement agencies to correctly calculate their actions and provides information that can significantly facilitate the exposure of a suspect.
The fundamental classification of serial criminals, dividing them into 2 fundamentally different classes, is written in an essay dedicated to the American "serial" Arthur Shawcross. It is interesting to see how applicable the American methodology is on domestic, so to speak, soil.
Perhaps, Sergei Alexandrovich Golovkin can be considered a classic example of an organized non-social serial criminal.
Sergei Golovkin at 17 and 30 years old. Quiet, notorious, cowardly fagot, lover of horses and dark-haired boys. Neighbors and work colleagues never took him seriously, considering him a "half-man". Even many months after Golovkin's arrest, people who knew him doubted the justice of the accusation against him - to such an extent bloody crimes did not fit with the appearance of this "slightly crippled" peasant.
Born in 1959, Golovkin in his childhood and youth in a pronounced form demonstrated those deviations that are almost always observed in persons of a criminal warehouse and sociopaths (the so-called "future criminal triad": bedwetting up to adolescence, a tendency to animal torture, pyromania). Until the age of 17, the future sexual killer suffered from enuresis and urinated on the bed at night, causing the wrath of his parents, especially his evil father. From the age of 13, Seryozha subtly killed cats, gouging out their eyes and examining the insides with unhealthy curiosity. Cowardly and intimidated by highly dominant parents, the boy did not set fires, fearing a terrible punishment in case of exposure, but he loved fire very much, so he also cherished pyromania, suppressed for the time being, in his soul.
Sergei Golovkin was sexually abused as a child by his heavily drinking father. The latter, by the way, was quite unusual type alcoholic - it was a drunken drunk who, during abstinence, demonstrated accuracy and pedantry that plagued family members. Sergei's mother, with her exactingness, was a match for him. The parents of the future killer were characterized by emotional coldness and aggressiveness. Such people could not get along under the same roof and eventually divorced; Sergei stayed with his mother.
Sexual trauma in childhood predetermined Sergei's homosexual inclinations at an older age. Unlike the majority of homosexuals (the so-called "shotguns"), who allow sexual contact with women in one form or another and even marry, Golovkin categorically did not accept sex with a woman. During the investigation, he could not recall a single case intimacy with a person of the opposite sex. In addition to homosexuality, Golovkin was obsessed with pedophilia: his sexual desire was focused on boys aged 10-13, thin and black-haired.
Golovkin during interrogation; on the investigative experiment and during the identification.
An obligatory element of his sexual play with the victim, a kind of "trigger" of aggression, was any violation by the boy of generally accepted norms and rules: for example, smoking, swimming in the wrong place, collecting birch sap, etc. Golovkin himself often provoked a potential victim to some or an illegal act and followed her reaction (for example, offered to rob the cottage, sell stolen cigarettes, etc.). If the boy did not dare to violate the order, then Golovkin lost interest in him and did not commit an attack.The following example is indicative: for his last victims - three boys who were kidnapped, raped and killed in September 1992 - a maniac, for example, offered to rob a warehouse located on the protected territory of the 1st Moscow stud farm (Golovkin worked at this plant as a senior livestock specialist). The boys agreed. In order to deceive the plant's guards when driving through the checkpoint, Golovkin hid one of the boys in the trunk of his Zhiguli, and covered the other two in the back seat, covering him with a blanket. To the question of the investigator: "what would happen if the boys did not want to rob the warehouse?" the offender replied that he would have refused the attack and took the boys home. There was no reason not to believe him - Golovkin was often seen with children, with whom he always willingly communicated, without making any attempts to commit sexual assault.
Photo taken in 1989. Sergei Golovkin has already tasted children's blood, he has more than one murder to his credit. However, nothing threatens the boy next to him - Golovkin attacked only those children whom he considered "bad".
The origin of such hatred for "hooligan boys" is interesting. Golovkin, who was graduating from the veterinary academy, was once beaten by a group of junior vocational school students, moreover, the offenders beat him badly: they knocked out his teeth, broke his nose ... A normal man in this abnormal situation (the younger ones beat the older one!) Would have bought dumbbells, would have gone to a good boxing or karate section, would work properly on himself. And you see, in a year he would have gotten even with the unbelted jerks. But no! it was not an outlet for Golovkin. After crying into the pillow for long nights, this overgrown kid realized that his cherished dream was to rape and then slowly dismember the offenders. And along with other "hooligan boys" similar to them ...In 1982, Sergei Golovkin graduated from the Agricultural Academy and got a job at the 1st Moscow Stud Farm. Sergey lived in Moscow and every day went to the enterprise, located a few kilometers from Barvikha, near Moscow, in the area of party nomenclature dacha development. Suffice it to say that the dacha of the Stalinist People's Commissar G. Yagoda in Gorki-10 was less than 5 km from the plant, and in the early 90s many summer cottages the neighborhood was occupied by the highest officials of post-Soviet Russia. Over time, Golovkin received living space on the territory of the stud farm - he was given a spacious room on the second floor of the administrative building; however, he did not lose his Moscow residence permit.
Golovkin made his first attack in 1982. It turned out to be unsuccessful - the victim was not particularly afraid of the offender and simply ran away from him. In 1984, Golovkin tried to repeat the experiment twice: once he was prevented by adults who suddenly came out of the forest, but the second time the future killer managed to grab a boy who went outside the pioneer camp to smoke. The maniac began to strangle him, but when he saw that the boy had lost consciousness, he got scared and ran away. Golovkin did not even attempt to have sexual intercourse - everything turned out to be much worse than he expected. Fortunately, the boy did not die and, after almost 9 years, he identified the attacker.
Golovkin was very worried about the bad experience, comprehended it, considered options for new attacks.
At some point, he decided to give up rape - he was very afraid of being exposed. I decided to act with affection, made an attempt to seduce a 17-year-old boy, for which he lured him to a stud farm in the evening and drugged him with alcohol. The young man drank alcohol, but refused oral sex with Golovkin and even ridiculed the unlucky pederast. This failure completely paralyzed the will of the future bloody killer - he had been waiting for his arrest for several months and even thought about suicide. Only after making sure that an unsuccessful attempt at seduction did not entail any consequences, he gradually grew bolder and returned to the idea of \u200b\u200battacking boys, followed by forcing them to have sex. Golovkin made an attempt at the next encroachment on the child only in April 1986 - to restore a greatly shaken faith in own forces it took him almost two years.
In April 1986, Golovkin committed the first rape followed by murder. His victim was a boy collecting birch sap.
The first legally proven victim of Sergei Golovkin was a boy collecting birch sap: the criminal, having accidentally discovered a can left under a tree, decided to watch for its owner. Having caught the victim, he severely beat her, reproaching her for "destroying wildlife"...The next two proven attacks took place in July 1986, four days apart. It was then, unexpectedly for himself, that Golovkin received the well-known nickname "Fischer" - supposedly, he had such a tattoo on his arm. In fact, no such tattoo existed; an erroneous description was given by a witness, a friend of the boy whom Golovkin took to the forest, raped and killed there. The same witness invented other non-existent details that greatly complicated the search for "Fischer": in particular, the boy claimed that an unknown man corresponded with a missing friend, leaving his messages in a tree hollow. With this rubbish in the style of Fenimore Cooper, the employees of the district, and then the regional prosecutor's office did not figure it out right away ...
The next proven attacks took place in 1989, 1990 and 1991. The killer showed a change in his manner of acting at the scene of the crime, dramatically complicating it. If the first victims of Golovkin were raped and strangled in the forest, approximately where they were later found, then in 1989 the dismemberment of the victims began - cutting off the head, genitals, removing the intestines. Golovkin has already begun to bury his last victims; by the early 1990s, he clearly understood that criminal activity should be masked as best as possible.
Golovkin's criminal style in 1989 underwent a sharp complication - the killer began to kidnap boys, rape them for a long time, subject them to increasingly sophisticated torture and dismember the bodies after the murders.
The sites where the bodies were found were not murder sites; they were sometimes at a considerable distance (20-30 km.) from the places where the victims were abducted, although they did not go beyond the boundaries of the Odintsovo district of the Moscow region. By this time, Golovkin had acquired a car and a garage on the territory of the stud farm. Under the garage, he arranged a cellar, which he used as a torture chamber. It was from 1989 that the murders began in a manner characteristic of Golovkin - the transportation of the victim from the place of abduction to the garage, from the garage to the forest, with complex, increasingly sophisticated post-mortal manipulations.Golovkin scattered the remains over a fairly large area; the heads of the victims were usually left a few hundred meters from the body, the killer kept the genitals and tried to conserve. The abuse of the bodies of the victims was not limited to this: in 1990, the killer removed the skin from the deceased and tried to tan it in a supersaturated saline solution.
The skin removed from one of the boys killed by Golovkin in 1990 was hand-tanned. During her study, forensic scientists drew attention to the peculiar crystals of salt used for tanning. Detailed analysis showed that it is non-edible salt.
The analysis showed that the killer used fodder salt used for feeding livestock for tanning. So, all the enterprises of the agro-industrial complex of the Odintsovo district, incl. and 1st Stud Farm. A representative of the investigation team worked in the personnel department of the plant, trying to "figure out" "Fischer" from among the people employed at the factory. Due to a number of circumstances, Golovkin was not among the suspects at that time: firstly, the investigation believed that the killer was a resident of the Odintsovo district (Golovkin was registered in Moscow); secondly, no one informed law enforcement agencies that Golovkin had a garage on the territory of the stud farm; thirdly, the investigators believed that they were dealing with a previously convicted active homosexual (Golovkin was not convicted); finally, fourthly, at that time the emphasis was on the search for a tattooed man.Sergei Golovkin - Bloody Boa from the Moscow Region...
Maxim LEONOV, especially for "Crime"
Sergei Golovkin, at the first meeting, made a completely benevolent impression. Tall, slim, handsome. But those who knew Golovkin for at least a few days noted his incomprehensible inferiority. He did not pay any attention to women, he was excited by the sight of the genitals of mares. He was called "unmanly", but everyone who knew Golovkin could not even imagine that he was the bloody maniac, rumors about which appeared in the Odintsovo district of the Moscow region in the mid-80s.
FATAL CAT
Serezha Golovkin was born in 1959 in a fairly strict family. Since childhood, he suffered from enuresis (urinary incontinence), for which his parents constantly scolded him. He was also afraid that peers would find out about his illness. However, Golovkin's classmates guessed something, because Seryozha constantly smelled of urine. Apparently, that's why he grew up notorious, cowardly and very quiet. He was not friends with anyone, he was frankly afraid of girls. And when he reached the age of puberty, he discovered an unusual feature in himself.
Golovkin was 13 years old when he caught a cat on the street. At first he wanted to bring her home, but was afraid that her father would scold her again. And then he decided ... to kill the cat and see what was inside it.
Golovkin later said that when he cut off the cat's head and she thrashed in agony, he "experienced true satisfaction, relaxation came, tension went away, spiritual relief arose." After that, Golovkin began to catch cats and small dogs, killed them and dissected them, looking at the insides. And then he began to imagine his classmates in place of the animals, constantly teasing Golovkin for the unpleasant smell. And these imaginations excited him so much that he began to masturbate.
I imagined myself as a fascist who tortures pioneer heroes, - Golovkin admitted to psychiatrists after his arrest.
But until some time Golovkin did not even think about making his dreams come true. At school, he studied pretty decently, and therefore managed to enter the Moscow Agricultural Academy. Timiryazev. Most likely, "experiments" on animals affected the choice of profession. And when Golovkin was in his last year at the academy, a story happened, after which a bloody maniac was “born”.
"...I PUNISHED HOOLIGANS..."
And the story was pretty trivial. Golovkin returned home rather late and ran into a gang consisting of vocational school students. Despite the fact that the student was much older than his counterparts, there were more of them. The Petushniks demanded money from Golovkin. If he had the money, maybe everything would have worked out. As already noted, Golovkin was a coward, and he would have given the money. However, he had no money. And angry teenagers badly beat Golovkin. They knocked out his teeth, broke his nose and a couple of ribs.
It was after that incident that Golovkin decided that he would punish hooligans. Well, along the way, you can also enjoy the "holy" mission.
At the end of the Timiryazevka, Golovkin was assigned to the 1st Moscow stud farm in the Odintsovo region of the region. There he looked for his victims. In his free time he walked near pioneer camps and children's institutions. Golovkin tried to commit the first attack immediately upon arrival at a new place of work, in 1982. It was unsuccessful, the boy managed to break free and run away. Two years later, Golovkin again tried to go hunting. However, he was not lucky. Once he was interrupted by adults who suddenly came out of the forest. The second time, the future maniac managed to grab a boy who went outside the pioneer camp fence to smoke. The maniac began to strangle him, but when he saw that the boy had lost consciousness, he got scared and ran away. The smoker survived, and 10 years later, he will confidently identify Golovkin as the man who attacked him.
The maniac committed the first murder in April 1986. According to an already ingrained habit, Golovkin wandered in the forest, not far from the pioneer camp. Here he noticed a little boy collecting birch sap.
He abused nature! - the maniac said indignantly during the investigation. You can't ruin trees like that. So I punished him.
Golovkin brutally beat the boy, and then raped and killed him. He did not dismember the corpse, fearing that at the most "interesting" moment, unwanted witnesses might appear. But he liked being raped. And Golovkin went out on the next hunt with the goal of not only punishing hooligans, but also satisfying his lust.
Three months later, Golovkin captured, raped and killed two more boys four days apart. After these murders, a special group was created to catch the maniac. Rumors about this quickly spread around the district, and Golovkin decided to stop for a while.
FALSE TRAIL
But Golovkin feared in vain. Law enforcement worked out two main traces, which turned out to be false. According to one version, the murders were very reminiscent of the actions of the Rostov murderer Andrei Chikatilo. It is worth recalling that the most famous Soviet maniac really traveled quite far from home, committing murders almost throughout the entire European part of Russia. That is why many employees of the special brigade seriously believed that the maniac who killed three boys in the Odintsovo district was a visitor and did not live here.
And the second false version came from the testimony of a friend of one of the victims. The boy claimed that the man who took his friend into the forest had a Fisher tattoo on his arm. The policemen began to look for Fischer in the criminal environment. The tattoo, as the witness described it, was very reminiscent of the “drawings” that criminals make for themselves.
Of course, the search was fruitless. No new corpses were found for almost three years, and the enthusiasm of the policemen noticeably faded. The search stalled. But in 1989, another corpse was found in the forest. However, at first this crime was not associated with Fischer. The fact is that Golovkin simply raped and killed his first victims. And here, at first glance, another maniac was operating. Because the bodies were found dismembered, with cut off heads and genitals, removed internal organs.
In 1990, Golovkin almost got caught. During the next dismemberment of the corpse, voices were heard in the distance. Golovkin looked in that direction and noticed the gray uniforms of the policemen. The fact is that the leadership of the Odintsovo district, concerned about the disappearances of boys (and there were about fifty of them, although not all of them became victims of a maniac), insisted on patrolling forest plantations.
TORTURE CHAMBER
Then Golovkin was lucky, he managed to covertly leave the crime scene. But the fact that he could get caught made Golovkin think he should be more careful. In 1989, he bought a Zhiguli and received the right to buy a garage on the territory of the stud farm, where he worked.
In the garage, Golovkin decided to dig a cellar to store potatoes, cabbage, all sorts of pickles and other products. However, after he almost got caught, Golovkin came up with the idea that this room could be used for other purposes.
He concreted the floor, overlaid the walls with concrete slabs, into which he crashed iron rings, to which he would later tie his victims. I bought a baby bath to collect blood in it. In general, prepared thoroughly. And when everything was ready, he went hunting again.
The dismembered bodies of boys began to be found more and more often. But the murders were not linked to Fischer. After all, he used to kill victims where he raped. And now Golovkin took the boys to his own torture chamber, where he mocked them for almost days. And after he killed, he took the tormented bodies away from the stud farm. Then he got a second nickname - Boa constrictor. The police officers nicknamed him that because most of the dismembered victims were killed by strangulation.
After Golovkin got his own torture chamber, he understood what love is. This is exactly what he said during the trial.
I almost loved them, - admitted Golovkin during the investigation. - How more sacrifice I liked it, the more I wanted to manipulate it, cut it more, cut it out.
Those who liked the maniac more than others, expected a very terrible fate. Golovkin tortured them for a long time, repeatedly raped them, slowly, very slowly, killing them. And sometimes he forced those he liked less to participate in torture and murder. And after each murder, he experienced incomparable pleasure.
I had such a pleasant feeling, as if I had done something good, as if I had fulfilled my duty, he will tell psychiatrists.
FATAL ERROR
Golovkin met his last victims, three boys, at the Zhavoronki railway station on September 15, 1992. The maniac knew all three of them, as well as they knew him. And so they weren't too afraid. Golovkin suggested that the boys rob the warehouse.
If they refused, they would become uninteresting to me, and I would let them go, - Golovkin argued. - Find others...
The boys didn't give up. And they signed their own death warrant. But Golovkin was unaware that there were four guys. One of the boys went to the toilet, at the same time that Golovkin suggested that the guys "go to work." And this fourth one also knew Golovkin and his car. The maniac allowed his three future victims to think for a moment. They went around the corner, where they met a friend. They told him about the proposed case. However, the guy refused, citing the fact that his parents might miss him. The trio returned to Golovkin, who had no idea that he had left a witness who saw his car and his friends getting in. This became the fatal mistake of the maniac.
But he learns about it only after the arrest. In the meantime, he put one of the guys in the trunk, and two in the back seat, covering with a blanket. The boys again did not have any suspicions - after all, they were driving to the protected area of the stud farm. That's where they came. However, instead of a warehouse, they ended up in the basement of Golovkin's garage.
Here is how the maniac told about his latest crime:
I told E., who was hanging on a hook, that I would now burn an obscene word on his chest with a blowtorch. During the burning, E. did not scream, only hissed in pain ... I told these three that along with them there would be eleven boys on my account, I set the order, telling the children who would die for whom. I dismembered Sh. in front of E., while showing the internal organs and giving anatomical explanations. The boy survived all this calmly, without hysteria, sometimes he just turned away.
After they found the remains of these boys and established their identity, the police began to question the friends of the victims. It was then that suspicions arose regarding Golovkin, who was identified by the same boy who refused the “case”. But the policemen had another clue that allowed them to suspect that Fisher and Udav were one and the same person. The fact is that Golovkin buried the remains of the boys tortured by him at the place where he killed his second victim in July 1986.
Maniac was arrested on October 19, 1992. The arrest shocked Golovkin. At first he withdrew into himself, did not answer questions. But the police found too much evidence that testified that Golovkin was at least involved in the murders. And the maniac did not lock himself up and spoke. After he calmly spoke about 11 murders, he was sent for examination to the Serbsky Institute. Doctors gave a conclusion - sane and able to realize their actions.
The Moscow Regional Court sentenced Golovkin to death. The sentence was carried out in August 1996. And he became the last death sentence carried out in the famous Butyrka prison. A cellmate of the maniac on the death row (who was more fortunate: they did not manage to execute him before the moratorium on the death penalty was announced) later recalled that Golovkin knew ahead of time about the execution of the sentence. But the instruction regulating the execution categorically forbids warning suicide bombers about the upcoming execution. It is quite possible that one of the prison staff specifically told Golovkin about the upcoming execution. Few people like murderers and pedophiles.
On the night of his execution, Golovkin calmly said goodbye to his cellmate, demonstrating enviable self-control. Perhaps he really deeply repented of his crimes. The “colleague” in the cell emphasized that for the entire time he was kept together with Golovkin, the latter did not say a single word about the murders committed and repeatedly repeated that he “deeply regrets those actions because of which he ended up here.”
