http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/story/CTVNews/20060717/olson060717/20060717?hub=TopStoriesThe 66-year old Olson began his killing spree with the abduction and brutal killing of a 12-year old girl in Surrey, British Columbia in 1980. Her body was found on Christmas Day, strangled and stabbed repeatedly.
Over the next year, Olson tortured and killed 10 more children, both boys and girls of varying ages.
Suspicion eventually fell on Olson, however authorities had little evidence to hold him. However, in August 1981 he was arrested for the attempted abduction of two girls.
Once in custody, Olson offered police what became an extremely controversial deal: he would tell police where to find the bodies of his victims in exchange for $10,000 for each body. Olson wanted the money to go to his wife.
