Underwear thief admits approaching that line to rape and murder
An Oshkosh man accused of stealing womens undergarments and sending them threatening letters told police he considered himself a sexual predator and admitted he was close to committing more serious crimes including rape and murder but that his religious beliefs prevented him from following through.
Christopher J. Sullivan, 43, was arrested after a neighbor told police that she saw him using a ladder to access an upstairs apartment in the 2100 block of West Ninth Avenue on Aug. 19.
According to the complaint, Sullivan burglarized residences in the area of West Ninth Avenue and Graceland Drive between October 2005 and Aug. 20. He would enter the residence when the women were not home and take their undergarments and photographs.
When Sullivan spoke to detectives, he admitted to committing five burglaries.
