Pedro Alonzo Lopez well deserves the title of “Monster of the Andes”, being quite likely the world’s worst ever sex offender, having admitted to the rape and murder of more than 300 young girls. He was active during the 1970s, in Ecuador, Peru and Colombia. During the three years of his peak activity he did away with his victims at the rate of two a week.
