Why was the Black Dahlia killer never caught?
In 1947 when Elizabeth Short was killed technology was primitave compared to what we have now. But serial killers don't usually know their victims. When there is no link between killer and victim it makes it that much harder to find the killer.
Was Jeffrey Dahmer a power and control serial killer?
For almost all serial killers, the motivation is power and control. Dahmer was no different. For that very short time he was with a victim, he had total control over them, he controlled the lives and deaths.
Who was the serial killer in Stockton?
I could find no serial killer from Stockton, CA. But an English serial killer was named The Stockwell Strangler. Kenneth Erskine killed 7 to 11 elderly women from April 9, 1986 to July 23,1986. That's a large number of victims for such a short period of time.
Where can you look at a profile of Gary Grant the serial killer?
Wiki has a very comprehensive list of the world's serial killers. I also found a short blurb on Crimezzz.net.
How long would it take to cure a serial killer?
You can't "cure" a serial killer. They may stop killing but they are not "cured". There are very specific (and few) reasons a serial killer will not continue to kill. If the crimes stop the list of possiblities are very short. The killer may have relocated for several reasons, fear of capture, or he may have relocated due to employment changes, have serious health problems, may have died, been incarcerated for different crimes. Or they may have begun to age, tapering off as the urge to kill weakens. These are the only reasons for a serial killer to stop killing.
What is the most people killed by a serial killer in a single day?
Occasionally a serial killer will kill more than one victim, usually in a 24-hour period. But I couldn't find a killer that killed more than two at a time. Jack The Ripper stabbed two victims barely an hour apart. Ted Bundy kidnapped and murdered two young women, just hours apart on the same day. But Bundy murdered two victims at the same time (just minutes apart) in a soriority house in Florida. In California Lawrence Bittaker and Roy Norris picked up two teen-aged girls hitchhiking and killed them simultaneously. In 19th century Chicago HH Holmes (real name H. Mudget) killed two children within a very short period of time. It is entirely possible that a serial killer has killed more than two, I just couldn't find the information. Serial killers differs from spree killers. They deed is not to kill a number of victims. The purpose vary in the persons but one victim is enough to satisty the need. Serial killers take time to rid themselves of the body parts after having had tortured, butchered and rape the victim alive or dead to satisty the sick need of the serial killer. On the 30 September 1888 Jack killed two victims, this itself doesn't usually happen in the serial murder world - Bundy did it at Seattle and Florida, Kemper and DeSalvo did it, to name a few. The first victim though, Elizabeth Stride, was not mutilated, suggesting that Jack was interrupted and he could not get the sexual gratification that he needed, so he then killed Catherine Eddowes and mutilated her. The second thing is that Marie Kelly, the last victim, was killed indoors. Serial killers often tend to change part of their MO, where they kill their victim and what type of person they kill; they do not however tend to change how they kill their victim - say cutting their throat and then mutilation. So Jack changed where he killed his next victim, not in the East End streets where an increased police presence was making it dangerously hard for him but indoors.
What are the Psychological Phases a serial killer goes through?
Long before a serial killer kills for the first time, he has been satisfied with violent fantasies. When those fantasies can no longer satisfy him he needs to find a victim and kill for real. After the kill he will have a period of relative calm. At this point he may relive the kill with any trophies have may have taken from the victim. But as time goes on the need to kill begins to build again and the hunt starts again. This process will continue until he is incarcerated, whether in prison or mental hospital, he dies or he loses the need to kill as he ages.More information.Psychologist Joel Norris in wrote the Psychological Phases in 1988. There are hundreds of papers in the internet describing this:1. Aura PhaseThe to-be-killer begins with an aura phase, in which there is a withdrawal from reality and a heightening of the senses. It means that the killer distances him/herself from social interactions. Nevertheless, friends, family and those who encounter this person, may not be able to detect this person's change in personality. The killer becomes antisocial and life no longer has meaning to him. This phase may last anywhere from several moments to several months and can begin as a prolonged fantasy, which may have been active for a short time or for years. These fantasies often include sadistic sexual and other violent acts which possibly derive from early childhood experiences. The killer may attempt to medicate himself with alcohol or drugs which often lead to an intensification of the fantasies. After a while they have the urge to be acted upon.2. Trolling PhaseThis leads into the second stage, which is the called the trolling phase. In this phase, the killer tries to find a victim. Most serial killers will search for a victim in places he is familiar with or where he feels comfortable (the so-called comfort zone may be around the killer's neighborhood, in a certain district or area). They will also look for a particular discreet location to perform the murder and to a perfect place to dump the bodies. They usually tend to look in school yards or lovers lanes or even red light districts. This might go on for hours days and sometimes even months, until the perfect victim will be found. In the trolling phase the serial killer often follows a behavior pattern used to identify and stalk his victim. Norris described how Ted Bundy strapped his arm in a sling and asked for help with books, packages, or even the hull of a sailboat to lure the victim into his car. Some victims escaped and said he never seemed out of control until the moment he actually attacked them.3. Wooing PhaseIn the wooing phase the killer tries to win the confidence of a victim before luring it into a trap. This phase is only done by the organized killers who are much more confident, more daring, and has better social skills than disorganized killers. The killer tries to socialize with the victim and - as stated before - tries to gain his victim's trust. This is a very important phase because the organized killer often seems to only proceed to kill those who allow him to gain their trust. "When homicide detectives finally begin to uncover a pattern of serial murder, one of the first things they notice is that the victims rarely seem to have struggle against their killers" (Norris 29). Once the trust is received, the killer will then lure the victim into quiet and secluded area where the killer uncover his/her mask and moved on to the next phase.4. Capture PhaseThe fourth phase is the capture phase. This is where the killer reveals what he is. The capture of the victim can be as swiftly as snapping a handcuff on the victim's wrists, or a blow that renders the victim helpless. The killer may draw his victim into his car which has no door handle one could use as an escape. He usually savors this moment. It is disturbingly fun for him and is included in his sadistic needs. The victim may be taken to a new location, far out from people and help. Once the killer is sure that there's no way for the victim to escape, he move to the climax phase of the cycle, the murder.5. Murder PhaseNorris described the murder phase as the ritual reenactment of the disastrous experiences of the killer's childhood, but this time he reverses the roles. The killer may decides to kill his victim instantaneously, but sometimes he will torture his victim to death, tries to revive it on the brink of death and continue with the torture (Scott). A disorganized killer is more likely to kill the victim instantaneously by a powerful attack or a quick strangulation. It is likely that the corpse is heavily "depersonalized" by mutilations of face and body (Vronsky). Any violent acts such as rape are often taken place after the victim is dead (necrophilia). The organized killer commits a much slower and more painful murder act. The victim is most likely to be tortured and raped before death. In his case the act of killing is delayed because the murder itself it often not the motive of the crime; rather, it is the torturing that the killer enjoys most. This is especially true in the sadistic killers, the most organized of all killers. This type of killers will keep their victims alive as long as possible - sometimes revive them from injuries, keeping them just alive enough to feel the pain from the tortures. The sexual sadistic killers will resources to different equipment's, such as electrical wire that they brought with them to the crime site. "The most prevalent forms of sexual acts inflicted on the victim, in order of case frequency, are anal rape, forced fellatio, vaginal rape, and foreign object penetration" (Vronsky 314). Eventually, when the killer finished with the tortures, he proceeds to kill.6. Totem PhaseThe next phase Norris described is the totem phase. After the kill, the excitement of the killer suddenly drops and he wakes up from his fantasy. He is likely to sink into a depression, which is why some serial killers develop a ritual to preserve their fantasy. They may collect their victim's possessions such as clothes and save news clippings about their crimes. Some serial killer cut off their victim's body parts to preserve and/or consume them. Others take pictures or videotape the crime. The trophy is meant to give the murderer the same feelings of power he experienced at the time of the kill and to remind him/her that the fantasy is real, and he/she really did fulfill it.7. Depression PhaseThe last phase before the serial killer starts over again is phase seven, the depression phase. There is a great emotional letdown for the killer. The depression phase can last for days, weeks, or even months. They may even become so depressed as to attempt suicide. A victim, now killed, no longer represents what the killer thought he or she represented, and the memory of the individual that tortured the murderer in the past is still there. Ressler compares the murder to a television serial with no satisfactory ending because the serial killer experiences the tension of a fantasy incompletely fulfilled. In each subsequent murder, he attempts to make the scene of the crime equal to the fantasy. Norris notes that there is an absence of the killer's sense of self and, during this phase, the killer may confess to the police before the fantasies start once more. However, because victims are not seen as people, recollections of murders may be vague or viewed as the killer having watched someone else. Eventually, the killers will fall back into their fantasies and proceed to the murder again. Each time after the murder, the fantasy will become more real and the murder will become more brutal, the cycle continues on and on until the pattern gets interrupted. The killer's interruption included getting caught, or simply the killer is "burnt out." When the killer is "burnt out," he/she withdraws from killing, and possibly commits suicide. This is one of the reason there are many unsolved serial murder cases. However, the chances are that the killers will not stop killing on his/her own. Serial killing is an addiction, and the killing patterns will be continued.
How many people are affected by serial killers each year?
Criminal experts predict that 1 serial killer will have 20 victims on average. Those 20 victims have numerous relatives, friends, coworkers, ect. So with the 'ripple effect' that's a lot of people. One victim's death can effect hundreds of lives. Then multiply that by the number of serial killers (could be up to 100 at any given time) in just the USA alone. The total is astounding. This kind of killer is a huge drain on society. To catch this type of killer is expensive. The man hours , mostly overtime, can send small community law enforcement into the red. If the killer is not caught within a short period of time, a task force is usually set up to organize the evidence and keep everyone on the same page, information wise. There is expensive DNA and other forensic testing that must be done. So the effects are far-reaching and expensive.
