PictureJohn Hoch hung for the murder of one woman, but is believed to have killed dozens. He was known as the Chicago Bluebeard
John Schmidt was born in 1855 in Horweiler, Germany. He immigrated to the United States in the last years of the 19th century. He took advantage of this and changed his surname, and became known as Johann Otto Hoch after the murder of one of his first victims. He then went on to marry several different women. Without benefit of a divorce from his previous bride (unless he had poisoned them) he would marry a new woman, swindle her out of money, and if she were lucky he would just leave instead of killing them with a dose of arsenic. Then he would start the process all over again.

PictureChicago's Lady Killer left a string of murders that even today have never been compiled against him.
In the span of 15 years he married at least 55 women, stealing their money and then murdering them. The actual number of how many he actually killed is not certain. By the time he was arrested, Chicago police dubbed him, "America's greatest mass murderer." Despite suspicion of a higher number the police were certain of only 15, and ultimately he went to trial and hung for only 1 murder. It was for his first and only legal wife, Christine Ramb. They had three children, and he abandoned them in 1887.

Hoch's Trail of Horror
In 1895 he was using the name of Jacob Huff, and wed Caroline Hoch, a middle-aged widow living in Wheeling, West Virginia. They married in April 1895, and three months later she became very ill. Rev. Haas who attended the suffering woman on her death bed, saw her husband administer a potion that was later suspected to be poison. She died a few days later. He took $900 in her bank account, sold their house and received $2500 from a life insurance. Covering his tracks he left his clothing, watch and a note on the bank of the Ohio River, where suicide was suspected. A body was never recovered.

He moved on to Chicago and worked in a meat-packing plant. Rev. Hass in West Virginia sent a letter to the police, and Police Inspector George Shippy started digging into Hoch's background. He found more than he suspected initially. There were dozens of reports of missing or deserted women ranging from New York to San Francisco.

Caroline Hoch was exhumed but strangely enough the body had been gutted and her vital organs were missing. Only trace evidence of arsenic was found in her body.

Despite knowing that he was suspected of bigamy and murder he found new victims in the lonely hearts columns of the local newspaper. Once he killed his new wife, he use embalming fluids with their high arsenic content to cover his tracks and the ingestion of the poison prior to their death.

He married Marie Walcker on December 5, 1904, and poisoned her quickly. On the night of her death he proposed to his sister-in-law Amelia and they married within a week of Marie's funeral. She gave him a gift of $750, and he promptly disappeared with the money. She called the police, but at least she was alive to do so.

Hoch's luck ran out when morticians started using a new embalming fluid with no arsenic in it. Exhumation of Marie Walcker's body found point in her system and he was charged with her murder. His picture was featured in all the major newspapers across the United States.

He was arrested and stood trial for the murder of Marie Walcker. During the proceedings he whistled, hummed and twirled his thumbs enjoying the limelight.

He went to the gallows on February 23, 1906, claiming his innocence, He stated, "I am done with this world. I have done with everybody."

As his body swung, a local newspaperman quipped, "Mr. Hoch, but the question remains: What have you done with everybody?"

Not until (1935 or 1955) did the answer to that question become evident. Human bones were found inside the wall of a Chicago house where Hoch once lived. The remains were unidentified, and the total number of his victims to this day remains a mystery.
