Lopez was born in Colombia on October 8, 1948. Lopez's mother was a prostitute and it was not clear who his father was. He had 7 more siblings and the father of none of them was known.

Pedro Alonso López (born 8 October 1948), also known as The Monster of the Andes, is a Colombian serial killer, child rapist, and fugitive who murdered a minimum of 110 people, mostly young women and girls, from 1969 to 1980. López claimed to have murdered over 300 people. He is considered by many as one of the most prolific serial killers and rapists in history.
Thereupon he settled in the orphanage. Lopez, who was also harassed here, escaped from there too. Lopez, who committed theft in the following years, was imprisoned for this and was raped in prison. After he was released from prison, he found and brutally killed the two men who raped him in prison. Thereupon, Lopez was arrested and sentenced to two years in prison.
Lopez, who was released from prison, was caught by tribe members while trying to rape a girl from a Native American tribe in Peru, and they wanted to bury him alive. However, a missionary rescued him from this situation and handed him over to the police. Peruvian authorities exiled him to Ecuador. Lopez raped and murdered more than three hundred children in Colombia, Peru and Ecuador. In 1980, he gang raped and killed 53 children and buried all the bodies somewhere. This relentless serial killer raped and killed approximately 100 girls in Ecuador in the mid-80s. But this time he got caught. He was arrested and sentenced to prison following this incident.
Lopez was also accused of committing many unsolved child murders. Although he was arrested and convicted, he said and swore that he would commit murder again if he was released from prison one day. After spending more than 15 years in prison, he was released in Ecuador in 1998 and exiled to Colombia by the Ecuadorian government, thanks to bilateral agreements. Lopez considers himself the man of the century and that's why he said he should be released rather than exiled. He was released by Colombian authorities in 1998 because he had no criminal liability and was never heard from again. Thereupon, the relatives of the victims announced that they would offer a reward of $250,000 to the person who brought Lopez's head.
