In 1998, a handwritten plea for help was found among the belongings of a dead man in Galena Park, Texas. Louis "Buddy" Musso was fifty-nine years old with the cognitive capacity of an eight-year-old. He had left New Jersey because a woman told him she loved him and promised to marry him. His injuries, when his body was found in a ditch, were so severe the body was unrecognizable. The medical examiner determined they had been inflicted over five days. He had been beaten with belts, baseball bats, and steel-toed boots, burned with cigarettes, scrubbed with a wire brush in a bathtub of bleach. He had asked for an ambulance. The request was refused. The insurance policy she had taken out on him paid an additional sixty-five thousand dollars if the death resulted from a violent crime.

Susan Atkins followed Charles Manson because he told her she was beautiful and said he would never let her fall. She had been molested by her brother, abandoned by her father, and used by every man she had known. She needed someone to claim her. She gave him everything — including her participation in the Tate-LaBianca murders. She spent the rest of her life inCalifornia's longest-serving female inmate.

Tracey Ann Richter-Roberts got a special education student to write a fake diary implicating her ex-husband in a murder conspiracy. Then she shot him nine times and staged the scene as a home invasion. She appeared on the Montel Williams Show and was called a hero.

Three women. Three versions of love as entitlement. Eight warning signs — including the capstone: the Taurus claim doesn't expire.
