  AFTERWORD: “SERIAL KILLERS NEED HUGS TOO”

  1 John Lennon popularized the phrase in his song “Beautiful Boy (Darling Boy)” on the 1980 Double Fantasy album by Lennon and Yoko Ono, his last before his murder. The line can originally be traced back to a 1957 Reader’s Digest article that attributes it to John Allen Saunders, one of the writers behind the Publishers Syndicate comic strips Steve Roper and Mike Nomad, Mary Worth, and Kerry Drake. Its original context and appearance have never been successfully identified. And http://quoteinvestigator.com/2012/05/06/other-plans.
