Fritz HONKA
Classification:
Serial killer
Characteristics: Killed the
women after they mocked his preference for oral sex over
"straight" intercourse - Kept
the bodies in his flat
Perhaps one of the more humorous killers in history,
Fritz Honka was an extremely insecure individual. Perhaps that had
something to do with his height, 5'5".
Well anyway poor old Fritz had two great
eccentricities, firstly, he only liked women shorter than himself, and
much more bizarre, he only liked toothless women. This was because his
greatest fear was having his cock mutilated during oral sex.
Because of these things Fritz seemed to only see the
older prostitutes of Hamburg, Germany. In fact he liked them so much he
killed four of them between 1971 and 1974. The reason for the murders
was simple, they teased him about preferring oral sex to 'straight' sex.
The only problem with killing the whores was the fact
that Fritz was too fucking lazy to get rid of the bodies (his little
body size didn't help either) and he just let them rot around him,
preferring to stay drunk than to remove them. When his neighbors
eventually complained about the stench he still didn't bother removing
the bodies, he just went out and bought a load of cheap deodorant, which
he attempted to cover the smell with.
Eventually he must have got sick of the smell and
torched the flat on June 17, 1975. Unluckily for him a fireman found the
mummified remains of a body and he was duly arrested and after a short
trial (where he pleaded guilty) he was sentenced to life imprisonment,
the maximum in Germany at that time.
The Wacky World of Murder
Fritz Honka
(1935 – 19 October 1998) was a German serial killer.
Between 1971 and 1974, he killed at least four
prostitutes from Hamburg's red light district, keeping
the bodies in his flat.
At five foot five, Fritz Honka was
extremely sensitive about his height. He liked his women
shorter, and he also liked them toothless, to alleviate
his fears of mutilation during oral sex. He found relief
with aging prostitutes from Hamburg's red light district,
killing at least four of them in his small attic room in
the Zeißstraße 74 of Ottensen.
Disposal was a problem, given Honka's
size and basic laziness. He kept the bodies in his flat,
and fortified himself with alcohol against the stench.
When neighbours griped about unpleasant smells, he
doused the place with quarts of cheap deodorant.
In January 1975, the mummified
remains were found by firemen after a fire in the house.
Honka was not present, being on shift as a night
watchman, and was arrested when he returned home.
In custody, Honka said he killed the
women after they mocked his preference for oral sex over
"straight" intercourse. He was sentenced to life
imprisonment, the maximum possible under German law.
Fritz Honka was released from prison
in 1993 and spent his last years under the name of Peter
Jensen in an old peoples home. He died in hospital in
Hamburg-Langenhorn on 19 October 1998.
German director Andreas Schnaas has
said that his film Violent Shit series is very
loosely based on the exploits of Fritz Honka.
