Robinson was born in Cicero, Illinois, a town famous for its connection to Al Capone. As a Boy Scout he performed before Queen Elizabeth II at a concert in London. He had dreams of becoming very important.
Robinson allegedly became a con artist who would stop at nothing to get what he wanted. He was named Man Of The Year once at a Kansas City charity and is described by acquaintances as very personable and easy to like.
He served time in jail in 1987 on charges of felony theft. He was supposed to serve 5 years, but he was released after only 4 years for good behavior. He was then handed to Missouri authorities, who arrested him because his conviction in Kansas violated one of the conditions imposed when Robinson was released on probation from a Missouri jail after being convicted of forging signatures on some documents. But he started complaining of chest pains and was released with a doctor's reccomendation letter.
It was while at that jail that he met one of his alleged lovers and victims, married woman Beverly Bonner.
In 1995 John bought a computer and supposedly started looking for females to unleash his sexual fantasies on. He would allegedly lure them by calling himself the Slave Master, and telling them what they wanted to hear.
According to the police, he would later meet some of those women in person and have sex with them. Then, the women he met disappeared. In the summer of 2000, some of their bodies appeared at Robinson's farm, including those of Bonner and Debbie Faith, who had tagged along with her mother the day her mother went to meet Robinson.
Robinson was accused of the murders of 3 of these women.
In 2001, a book about him, his alleged victims and the things he allegedly did to them, Internet Slave Master, was released.
