Joel David Rifkin (born January 20, 1959) is an American serial killer who was sentenced to 203 years in jail for the murders of nine women between 1989 and 1993.
He is said to have killed up to seventeen victims in New York City and Long Island, New York, between 1989 and 1993.
Despite the fact that Rifkin regularly employed sex workers in Brooklyn and Manhattan, he lived in East Meadow, a suburban hamlet on Long Island, a sex worker.
Early life
Rifkin's birth parents were both young college students and his biological father, who was an army veteran. Rifkin was adopted by an upper-middle class couple on Long Island on February 14, 1959, when he was three weeks old.
Rifkin did poorly in school due to learning disabilities, and he was unpopular with peers due to his lack of social skills. He graduated from East Meadow High School in 1977 and attended classes at Nassau Community College, the State University of New York in Brockport, and the State University of New York at Farmingdale, but not before receiving a degree. Rifkin became a landscaper after leaving college.
Bernard, Bernard's father, overdosed after suffering from prostate cancer for several months, died on February 20, 1987, and his son, Bernard, died on February 20, 1987.
Rifkin was arrested during a sex worker sting in Hempstead, New York, on August 22, 1987, after promising an undercover female police officer money for sex.
Prison life
Rifkin was so notorious that his presence in the general prison population might be disruptive, according to prison officials in 1996. He was detained in his cell at the Attica Correctional Facility for 23 hours per day. He spent more than four years in solitary detention before being transferred to the Clinton Correctional Facility in Clinton County, New York. Rifkin defended his conviction, alleging that his solitary confinement was unconstitutional. A state appellate court found that prison officials had not violated his constitutional rights by housing him in isolation in 2000. Rifkin was sentenced to more than 200 others prisoners in Clinton who were not allowed to enter the general prison population, according to corrections officials.
