Golovkin was sentenced to death and executed by shooting, becoming the last person to be executed in Russia.

A television special on this case warned that this case was cruel and not for children or those with a weak stomach. It is indeed one of the worst cases in the annals of serial crime.

Anatoly Golovkin was a pederast and serial killer. His victims were little boys ages ten to twelve. Golovkin terrorised Moscow for 16 years killing eleven known victims and more than likely many more unknown victims. The case closed with Golovkin's death sentence in 1994.

Golovkin would rape and sodomise the boys while he mutilated them, cutting their genitals, torso and throats.

Sentenced to death in Moscow in 1994, Golovkin joined Andrei Chikatilo in perestroika's rapidly growing gallery of the depraved. Another sexual sadist, Anatoly derived pleasure from slitting the bellies of some of his victims -- young boys -- and cutting their testicles. "He is a straight forward maniac," said a spokesman for Moscow district prosecutor's office. Golovkin was sentenced to death for murdering 11 boys over an eight-year period.
