Özkan Zengin
Özkan Zengin (born 1982) is a Turkish serial killer who committed the homicide of at least three gay males. He was nicknamed "The Well Driller Killer" because he threw his victims into a well near the crime scene. Zengin confessed that he also stole the money of the individuals he murdered. According to Zengin, he murdered gay individuals due to the feeling of guilt he felt after sexual encounters he had with his victims. His modus operandi mostly consisted of cutting the throat of his victims before throwing them in a well in the immediate area where he had a sexual relationship with them.

Zengin was born in Istanbul in 1982. He was unmarried. He worked in a bakery. He started committing murder in May 2008 and killed four people by cutti ...

Death
Death is the end of life; the irreversible cessation of all biological functions that sustain a living organism. Death eventually and inevitably occurs in all organisms. The remains of a former organism normally begin to decompose shortly after death. Some organisms, such as '' Turritopsis dohrnii'', are biologically immortal; however, they can still die from means other than aging. Death is generally applied to whole organisms; the equivalent for individual components of an organism, such as cells or tissues, is necrosis. Something that is not considered an organism, such as a virus, can be physically destroyed but is not said ''to die'', as a virus is not considered alive in the first place. As of the early 21st century, 56 million people die per year. The most common reason is aging, followed by cardiovascular disease, which is a disease that affects the heart or blood vessels. As of 2022, an estimated total of almost 110 billion humans have died, or rou ...
