Garage murders

In 1988, Golovkin purchased a beige-colored VAZ-2103 car, which he stored in his garage where he began constructing a basement, originally to be used as a workshop; however, he realized it could be used as a dungeon to commit his sexual crimes. From August 1990 on, Golovkin killed eight boys aged 10 to 16 years old; on two occasions torturing two at the same time.[2] In September 1992, Golovkin raped and killed three boys he had lured into his garage, offering to commit theft from a warehouse.

mushroom pickers. On 19 October 1992, Golovkin was detained under suspicion by the police. During the interrogation he behaved calmly and denied guilt.

for the night. In the morning, Golovkin was questioned, and he confessed the last three murders to Kostaryov. The next day, police searched Golovkin's garage, discovering a baby bath with a burnt layer of skin and blood, clothes, and body parts.

On 2 August 1996, Golovkin was executed by a single shot to the back of the head. He was the last person to be executed by Russia before the abolition of capital punishment.[2]

Lawyer Yuri Antonyan mentioned Golovkin in his notes regarding Nikolai Dzhumagaliev:[5]

Sexual "serial" murders have common characteristics that are always associated with the intimate life of the perpetrator, his psycho-traumatic sexual experiences, his feelings of sexual inadequacy and inferiority, which allows one to call such murders sexual. In the life of each, such killers had serious failures in sexuality, and the overwhelming majority did not feel like men. So, Chikatilo was impotent, Golovkin (who killed 12 boys and teenagers) and Ershov (who killed 4 women with an axe) were virgins, and cannibal killer Dzhumagaliev was disgusted by sexual intercourse, etc. In a word, almost all serial sex killers were sexually incompetent or felt they were.
