In 1990, 36 year old Julio Gonzalez was at the end of his rope. He was unemployed, broke, and  the love of his life, his ex-girlfriend Lydia, would not take him back. In the early morning hours of March 25, 1990, however, after Julio went to Lydia's job and begged her to take him back, and was rejected, he wanted revenge. However, his revenge would cause mass carnage and it would make Julio exclaim, "The devil made me do it."
