At the age of thirty-two, Robert Strong had a promising career as the head of his own personal agency, specialising in computer staff, his early career being a computer programmer himself. At this time, in 1976, he committed homicide when he killed his stepmother. He has now spent thirty-nine years in mental hospitals, although he maintains that he is perfectly sane and always has been. He feels he is a victim of a conspiracy in society to drive him to homicide.
