-Caveat Lector- 'RAIL KILLER' A SCHIZO Philadelphia Daily News , Thursday, May 11, 2000 (Reuters ) Page number 63 HOUSTON - A rail-hopping drifter who confessed to being a serial killer is a paranoid schizophrenic who believed God directed him to murder his victims, a psychologist testified yesterday. The psychologist was hired by lawyers for Angel Maturino Resendiz, who is on trial for his life. Houston psychologist Richard Lawrence Pollock said Maturino Resendiz, 40, had an "intense dislike" for abortion providers and homosexuals and may have seen something in his psychotic state that made him associate his victims with those groups. "He has very intense and strong delusions. . .He supports them with God speaking to him through the Holy Bible. He believes there are things written in the Bible that were written for him thousands of years ago," said Pollock. Attorneys for Maturino Resendiz admitted in opening statements Monday that he murdered nine people during a two-year U.S. killing spree. "He felt an evil force pulling him into these homes and directing him to people who deserved to be dead. And as the angel of God, it was his duty and obligation to fulfill God's will," Pollock said. Those "evil forces" included anything that Maturino Resendiz linked to homosexuality or abortion, he said. The killings to which Maturino Resendiz confessed were brutal beatings and stabbings in Texas, Kentucky and Illinois that took place from 1997 to 1999. The victims were attacked in their homes and, in some cases, raped afterward. ========== MARtin F.
