"A black female was picked up, blindfolded and gagged. Robin shoot her point blank in the head. Put chains around her neck and legs, attached two bowling and threw her in the water. I understand her body was not found."Robin Gecht, Edward Spreitzer, Andrew and Thomas Kokoraleis, collectively known as "The Ripper Crew", were a pack of American ephebophilic, necrophilic, cannibalistic serial killers and rapists.

History
Not much is known about the gang prior to the killings, their leader, Robin Gecht, was employed at PDM Contractors, owned by fellow serial killer and rapist John Wayne Gacy. Gecht had been also accused of molesting his own sister. On May 23, 1981, The Crew abducted their first known victim, a prostitute named Linda Sutton, her body was found ten days later after police responded to a call about a bad smell at a motel outside Chicago. Initially believing that the smell was coming from a dead deer, police found Sutton's body in a field behind the motel, she had been handcuffed, stabbed mutilated and had her left breast amputated, because of her body's condition, police only managed to identify her thought digital and dental records. Despite efforts to identify her killer, the case went cold. A year later, on May 15, 1982, they abducted another woman, Lorry Borowski, just as she was about to open the realtor's office where she worked. While investigation the case, Detective Commander and hypnotist John Millner decided to hypnotize several people who were in the area at time of Lorry's disappearance, one of them recalled seeing a red van at the mall parking lot, however, again, with no important leads, Lorry's case went cold, her body was discovered only five months later, in a cemetery in Villa Park. Over the course of four months, the gang abducted and killed several woman in the Chicago area. Days after killing Lorry, Shui Mak was abducted from Hanover Park and her body was not found for four months.

Two weeks later, they abducted a prostitute named Angel York and mutilated her while she was still alive before throwing her out of the van, still alive, York's description of her attackers failed to produce any leads and the case went cold. Months later, they abducted, strangled and stabbed a teenage prostitute named Sandra Delaware to death before dumping her body in the Chicago River. A month later, they killed a woman named Rose Davis and dumped her body in an alley, her body had almost identical injuries as Delaware. A month after killing Davis, they abducted their last known victim, prostitute Beverly Washington and mutilated her body, she was found by a railroad track on December 6, still alive, she was able to give a description of the men who attacked her and their van. Gecht was eventually arrested and almost released due to lack of evidence, but further investigation revealed that Gecht had rented a room in a motel with three friends, each with adjoining rooms, the manager of the hotel told police that they appeared to involved in some kind of cult. Shortly after, police identified the other men, Edward Spreitzer and the Kokoraleis brothers, they soon confessed to the murders. After a series of trials, Gecht, Spreitzer and Thomas Kokoraleis were sentenced to life in prison, Thomas' brother, Andrew Kokoraleis, on the other hand, was executed by lethal injection, he was the last inmate to be executed in Illinois.

Modus Operandi
Spreitzer and the Kokoraleis brothers would drive around the city in their van, when they found a potential victim, mostly prostitutes, they would take them to Gecht's apartment, which he called the "Satanic Chapel", there, they would be beaten, tortured, raped and mutilated in ritualistic ways. Their victims would be killed in variety of ways, such as stabbing, strangling, shooting or even hacking with an ax, Gecht would read passages of the Satanic Bible as his partners brutally killed the women. In every case, they would remove their victim's breast with a wire garrote while she was still alive, masturbate into the flesh, chop it into pieces and devour it. After killing them, they would dump the bodies in alleys, under bridges and in forests located in the outskirts of the city.

On Criminal Minds
The Ripper Crew is partially similiar to The Johnson County Brotherhood. Both teams were a pack of serial rapists and abductors who targeted women associated with sex trade and took them to their leader's house, where they would beat and rape their victims. Also, some of the Crew's victims were killed by strangulation, the same M.O. Kosina used to kill his victims.
