Leonard Lake

Leonard Thomas Lake, also known as Leonard Hill and a variety of other aliases, was an American survivalist and serial killer who raped, tortured and murdered an estimated eleven to twenty-five victims with his accomplice Charles Ng at a remote cabin near Wilseyville, California, 150 miles east of San Francisco, between 1983 and 1985. Lake was never convicted of murder, as he swallowed cyanide pills that he had sewn into his clothing and died four days after his arrest.
