Prize-winning journalist Jack Olsen, armed with unprecedented access to one of the most infamous serial killers in American history, provides a fascinating glimpse into the mind of a murderer in the killer's own words....
In February 1990, Oregon State Police arrested John Sosnovke and Laverne Pavlinac for the vicious rape and murder of Taunja Bennet, a troubled 23-year-old barfly who had suffered mild retardation since birth. Pavlinac had come forth and confessed, implicating her boyfriend and producing physical evidence that linked them to the crime. Authorities closed the case.
There was just one problem. They had the wrong people.Â
And the real killer wasn't about to let anyone take credit for his kill. Keith Hunter Jesperson was a long haul truck driver and the murderer of eight women, including Taunja Bennet. As the case wound through police precincts and courts - ending in life sentences for both Sosnovke and Pavlinac - Jesperson began a twisted one man campaign to win their release. To the editors of newspapers and on the walls of highway rest stops, Jesperson scribbled out a series of taunting confessions:Â
I killed Tanya Bennett.... I beat her to death, raped her and loved it. Yes I'm sick, but I enjoy myself too. People took the blame and I'm free.... Look over your shoulder. I may be closer than you think.
At the end of each confession, Jesperson drew a happy face, earning for himself the grisly sobriquet "The Happy Face Killer".
Based on access to interviews, diaries, court records, and the criminal himself, I: The Creation of a Serial Killer is Jesperson's chilling story. It chronicles his evolution from angry child to sociopathic murderer, from tormentor of animals to torturer of women. It is also the story of the fate that befell him after two innocent citizens were imprisoned four years for one of his killings.
Edgar Award winner Jack Olsen lets the killer to tell his story in his own words, offering unprecedented insight into the twisted thought process of a serial murderer. Olsen takes his listeners along on Jesperson's vicious cross-country killing spree, letting him describe how he played his "death game" with eight innocent victims and how he finally came to grips with the fate he deserved.
I: The Creation of a Serial Killer is one of the most revealing and insightful pieces of crime reporting ever published.

As much as I hate to admit it, this is a very engaging book. Fans of true crime, like myself, will enjoy the first person aspect of one of the two parallel stories that run through the book.Jesperson absolutely lets us inside his head as he recounts his killing spree in the mid to late 80's. He tells us what he was thinking at the time prior to, during and after the murders. It's fascinating. He recounts his killings as though they are an addiction that no other substance or experience can match. There are periods where he seems to be able to control things but, the slightest bump in his life and he'd be back enticing and murdering young women. Seems Keith Jesperson felt he never truly fit anywhere and the solitary life of a trucker suited his personality.The other story is Olsen's account of Jesperson's early life, mainly his interaction with a controlling, alcoholic father who never truly accepted Jesperson the child. Jesperson in his own way sought his father's approval but never seemed to get it. In his mind his siblings weren't subject to the same rigors and trials as he was. Never quite living up to his father's expectations Jesperson keeps himself in close proximity of his father working hard, entering business deals with his father, which usually backfired, and never truly breaking the ties.Once in prison, the book moves more to the relationship with his father via letters written between the two. This portion highlights the dysfunction as Jesperson tries to relay to his father how he felt growing up in his father's overbearing shadow. It's very sad but, we have to ask ourselves, is this causality for his actions ?Summary: Very well written account of Jesperson's killing spree. Yet again, Jack Olsen distances himself from the crowd of true crime writers through another engaging work.
I thought I had read every Jack Olsen book... how did this one get past me? Yes, true crime, is awful. Many authors can write in such a way that one might feel guilty for even reading about it. Not Jack. He is able to... how can I say this? Make us care? How can he engage us in such a way that we are very eager to try and find SOME reason for why people can do such awful, unthinkable things? I don't know, or if be a True Crime writer. I'm a Homicide Detective's daughter...so perhaps these books fascinate me for many reasons. Keith Jesperson is not a serial killer I knew a thing about, and that surprised me. I ALMOST hate to write this, but he also did not make me detest him, as I often do when I read about anyone who does horrible, unthinkable things to people. Why? I'm not sure! I'll tell you who I DID detest; his father! If ever there was a monster who didn't kill people, Keith's dad was that man. I could go on and on, but I won't. GREAT BOOK. Beware: after Keith's father shoots Keith's beloved 15 year old dog, Keith starts abusing animals. It's like as a grown man, he's doing what most budding serial killers do. That part was tough to read. Read this book though. A wonderfully written study into a boy/man's mind. There is a good chance Keith never would have done what he did; but we'll never know.
Jack Olsen once said that a true crime book that doesn't seek to answer the question of "what created this monster?" is "pure pornography." It's fitting, then, that his final book was I, The Creation of Serial Killer. There isn't a Jack Olsen book that isn't worth the time of any serious true crime fan. He was a true great and if anyone else had written this book I doubt I'd have read it. You see, I'm basically a wimp and the gore that is inherent in any serial killer story is more than I can take. While the gore factor on this book is low for a serial killer story, this is still one of the most profoundly disturbing books I've ever read. It is the first book that I have deleted from my Kindle - I literally didn't want it around.Olsen gets into the mind of serial killer Keith Jesperson, literally channeling his voice. This was enlightening. Who knew that the mind of a serial killer was so boring? Vile, horrific, loathsome thoughts and fantasies - these I expected and got. The boring factor was a revelation. Step inside the mind of a serial killer and you're in for the endless self-justifications of a whiny loser. Everybody done him wrong. Whether Jesperson is more self-aware than the average serial killer or, in other words, is less of a whiny loser than most serial killers is a bit like asking if the concentration camp guard was nice. It's all relative, yes, but consider the scale.There are moments of twisted Is-this-guy-for-real black humor, like when Jesperson refers to "special moments shared with my victims" that elicit a combination gasp-laugh-choke. The Serial Killers Pen Pal Club that Jesperson starts, on the other hand, may just be proof that sometimes illiteracy isn't such a bad thing. Then again, it's hard not to walk away from this book passionately pro death penalty even if you start it passionately on the other side of the debate. This crew is pretty much the filled with poster children for euthanasia with their mercenary insistence on being paid for every word and getting jealous when one of them gets more press.This is a tough book to critique. Olsen so effectively channels Jesperson for half the book that I missed Olsen's familiar, sane voice. Judged on its own terms, probably the only fair ones, it succeeds in what it sets out to achieve. But would I recommend it? Well, if you think serial killers are fascinating or interesting, then step right up and get yourself disabused of those notions. Ditto if you think they can be rehabilitated - these guys just like killing. If you're wondering if press coverage encourages serial killers to up the ante, Jesperson is an example of someone who wants "credit" for his "kills." But, again, would I recommend it? This isn't an enjoyable book. I didn't enjoy Plato's Republic though I'm glad I read it. The best I can offer is that if you're deeply interested in serial killers, this book is essential reading. But be prepared for loss of appetite and nightmares.
I liked the POV used through the book. Though sometimes a little confusing when it switched from different time lines and occasionally POV, it was a very interesting read/listen. Be warned, it is fairly graphic in detail, so this is not a book for the squeamish or faint of heart. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys gory and detailed true crime tolls from the first person perspective.
