overview

This is the shocking story of the Hong Kong taxi driver who hoarded memorabilia from his gruesome murders. After strangling his female victims, Lam Kor-wan dismembered them and kept their sexual organs in tupperware containers, tucked away in the same bedroom he shared with his unassuming brother in a Tsim Sha Tsui apartment. Lam was a keen photographer and frequently took pictures and video footage of his victims, at least once filming himself performing an act of necrophilia. Lam was arrested by plain clothes officers on August 17, 1982 as he attempted to collect photographs of one of his dismembered victims at a Hong Kong Kodak shop. The bodies of his victims had been disposed of via his taxi in the New Territories and on Hong Kong Island, and all were eventually located.
On April 8, 1983, Lam was found guilty of four counts of murder and sentenced to death by hanging. Lam’s sentence was later commuted to life imprisonment in 1984, as was the tradition before the abolition of the death penalty in 1993. He is currently serving his life sentence at Shek Pik Prison
