J.B. Allen

J.B. Allen was a serial killer who appeared in Foundation.

Background
Nothing is revealed about Allen's early life. In 1975, he founded a construction company that prospered over the years. Among his clients were the local police department, who hired him to build for them on multiple occasions. The same year, he also married a woman with whom he had a daughter, Samantha "Sam" Allen. When she was five years old, her mother passed away from cancer. Growing up, she spent most of her time playing sports since J.B. was often busy at work. Underneath his facade, Allen was also a serial killer who abducted and killed young boys, using his construction sites to lure them. He would dispose of their bodies at his first development site in Mesa, adding house after house to it in order to bury the boys' bodies underneath them.

Modus Operandi
Allen targeted young boys, using his construction sites to attract their attention. After abducting them, he would hold them captive in a secret compartment under the floor of his basement. Over the course of several years, he would rape and torture them as well as bite them. After some time, presumably when they became too old for him, Allen would kill them and bury their bodies at his first development site, burying them where the next house was to be built. Since he tried to kill Billy Henderson by burying him alive, it's possible that he did the same to his other victims. He would take toys and other possessions they had on them as trophies and give them to Samantha as gifts.
