POWERFUL
STATEMENTS

”Victor Paleologus is one of the most vicious, manipulative and sadistic rapist murderers I have seen in my FBI career and, just like he did last time he was released, he will kill again.”

Jim Clemente
FBI Supervisory Special Agent/Profiler, retired.

“Victor Paleologus is a violent murderer who plotted to sexually assault and kill multiple young women. He has never fully accepted responsibility for killing Kristi Johnson and should serve his full life sentence. He spent years plotting his violent attacks and there is no reason to believe his sadism and misogyny have been magically cured in prison.”  

Francey Hakes
State and Federal Sex Crimes Prosecutor, retired.

“Serial criminals, particularly serial rapists and killers like Victor Paleologus are not rehabilitated during incarceration. Instead they spend that time honing their craft by analyzing how they were caught and imagining a refinement of their techniques so as to avoid capture when they inevitably resume yielding to their sadistic compulsions once freed. I have little doubt that Victor Paleologus regaining his freedom will result in additional victims, not to mention re-victimizing those who helped convict him.” 

Bobby Chacon
FBI Special Agent, retired.

“Victor Paleologus came to my attention as a person of interest in the case of a young woman named Lisa Todd, whose body was found in Bensalem in the mid 1980’s. Paleologus is a proven violent, serial sex offender; a predator who stalked and groomed his victims with long game, premeditated plans.  To think an offender like him has been safely rehabilitated would be a grave mistake” 

Chris McMullin
SVU Homicide Detective, Bensalem PD, retired.

“Victor Paleologus is a prolific rapist. He has no remorse for his crimes and blames everyone but himself. In 2003 he was released from prison. It took him 2 weeks to lure several women to various locations, which resulted in the murder of Kristi Johnson. There is no doubt that he will reoffend if he is let out of prison. He has proven that time and again.” 

Virginia Irlikis (Obenchain)
Sergeant, Santa Monica PD, retired.
Lead Detective in the Kristine Johnson murder case

“Since 1989, the defendant [Victor Paleologus], has continuously stolen property, defrauded innumerable people, presented forged documents to the court, and viciously attacked vulnerable young women. He has lied to women, drugged a woman, forcefully tied them up against their will, battered them, broken into their homes, sexually assaulted them, attempted to rape them, choked them, strangled them, and has now taken the life of twenty-one-year-old Kristine Johnson. The defendant is a master manipulator and an ultimate conman. He is also a violent and insatiable murdering predator who must never be released from prison.”
