I was 12 the summer of the David Berkowietz case, and my little brother was 8 or 9. I remember my Mom telling us they had caught the “Son of Sam” killer, and then my little brother piped up with “well, did they get that dog too?”. (‘Cuz, you know, that was a really bad dog that told him to kill all those children). It was a heinous crime, and if Mr. Berkowietz has indeed been saved, then I rejoice, but I have to admit every time I hear “Son of Sam”, I remember my baby brother’s concerned question that day and how it cracked me up, and I laugh all over again. I hope my Sam-dog doesn’t go bad like that. ~S.T.Lloyd
