If this episode sounds a little like it inspired a certain premium cable series that had something to do with a certain blood-splatter analyst from Miami, you're not the only one to come to that conclusion.
Pedro, known by some as Killer Pete, seemed to be aimed towards violence at a young age, killing two before he was 15 and scores of others over the span of 30 years. Here's the catch though: Pedro had a tendency to be very particular about his prey. They had to be criminals. Rapists. Murderers. You might actually be hard pressed to find someone who felt his knife who wasn't guilty of one serious crime or another.
Whether he was a heroic anti-hero who removed 70-100 criminals from the Brazilian population, or just another murdering loose cannon for the books, I'll leave that up to you. I'm just here to tell you all about him.
