Boston Strangler Suspect Prefers Prison Care Over Death
Al bert DeSalvo, who terrorized Boston with 13 killings, hoped to be shot after escaping Bridgewater State Hospital but now prefers remaining in state prison if he can receive proper psychiatric care. Attorney F Lee Bailey said DeSalvo, 35, was captured after a 32 hour manhunt and is under 24 hour guard at Walpole. He previously sought to avoid dying, while authorities debate whether the pursuit proves his guilt for the 1962 64 stranglings.
