Richard Leonard Hernandez Kuklinski Wiki: Salary, Married, Wedding, Spouse, Family
Richard Leonard "The Iceman" Kuklinski (April 11, 1935 – March 5, 2006) was an American serial murderer who was convicted for three murders. Kuklinski was given the nickname "Iceman" for his method of freezing a victim to mask the time of death. The 6'5" (196 cm), 300 pound (135 kg) Kuklinski lived with his wife and children in the suburb of Dumont, New Jersey, prior to his arrest. His family was apparently unaware of Kuklinski's double life and crimes. A New Jersey Police task force was formed after Kuklinski was suspected of two murders. A year-long undercover investigation led to his arrest.Kuklinski claimed to be a contract killer for Newark's DeCavalcante crime family and New York City's Five Families of the American Mafia. After his murder convictions, Kuklinski took part in a number of interviews during which he claimed to have murdered from over 100 to 250 men (his "recollections" varied) between 1948 and 1986. Three documentaries, two biographies and a feature film have been produced on Kuklinski based on his interviews and the results of the task force that brought Kuklinski to justice. His claims have not been substantiated and crime family members dispute his role in any contract killings.

1 | I've never felt sorry for any of the things I've done, besides hurting my family. That's the only thing I feel sorry for. |
2 | [when asked if he felt he was an assassin] "Assassin"? Sounds so exotic. I'm just a murderer. |
# | Fact |

1 | He has erroneously been described as a "Mafia killer". He wasn't--not being Sicilian, he could never have become a member of the Mafia. He was a contract killer who often worked for various Mafia families and figures, but he did not belong to the Mafia and, in fact, also committed contract killings for non-Mafia criminal organizations and individuals. |
2 | He was the subject of several books, two cable television documentaries and a "docudrama" about his life. |
3 | He typically used cyanide administered from a nasal spray on his victims and earned the nickname "The Iceman" because he kept some bodies in a freezer. He was serving consecutive life sentences at New Jersey State Penitentiary for two murders at the time of his death in 2006. |
4 | One of the US' most prolific and cold-blooded professional killers, he claimed to have committed more than 100 murders in his career. Some law enforcement sources have said they believed his career total was much higher than that. |
