Notorious Murderers and Serial Killers

David G. Meirhofer, Wayne Nance, Nathaniel Bar-Jonah and Ted Kaczynski were from Montana.

According to Hickey's 1997 database of approximately 399 serial killers, the average age of the murderer at the time of the first killing was 27.5 years, and they typically were white males.

Aileen Carol Wuornos was a leap year baby, born February 29, 1956.

The first victims were found in or within mere feet of the Green River, which is where the moniker Green River came from. After that the killer began to diversify his dump sites to wooded areas on Seattle's urban fringes. There were also some bodies dumped over the state line into Oregon. Some bodies were buried while others left out to the elements.

He was not a serial killer; the thing was that Steven was kidnapped by child molester Kenneth Parnell in 1972. Cary Anthony Stayner is his older brother who became a serial killer convicted of killing four women in 1999 in Mariposa County near Yosemite, California.

John Wayne Gacy died on May 10, 1994 at the age of 52.

There are no fixed traits to a serial killer. While some may be egocentric, that does not mean that all of them are. Like regular people, serial killers come from a vast number of backgrounds; thus, they have various personalities.

Ohio is famous for bringing serial killers to the world. Thomas Carr, richard tingle, Neal Bradley Long, Charles Manson, Jeffrey Dahmer, William K. Sapp, James Ruppert, Larry Ralston, Thomas Dillon, Michael Swango, Gary & Thaddeus Lewingdon, Alton Coleman & Debra Brown, Moreland Family Juvenile Baby Killer, Eric Elliott, Lewis Gilbert and the Cleveland Torso Murderer were from Ohio.
If I forget to mention one, feel free to add it to the list.

This actually happens more often than people realize. Ted Bundy bungled an abduction while pretending to be a police officer. Carol La Ronch barely escaped with her life intact and testified against him at his murder trials in Florida. Bundy was executed in January 1989.

Google serial killers captured and there are some really good sites. Or try www.serialkillers.com, there is some really good information on this one.

He killed 17 victims from the tower and his mother and wife alike. He was sure was getting the death penalty.

Although both of these killers had a different MO (modus operandi) they loved to taunt the police and derived much pleasure thinking they were smarter than the authorities.

None, or very few. They seem to come from around Wisconsin!!

A serial killer is a person who murders three or more people over a period of more than 30 days, with a 'cooling off' period between each murder. A psycopathic killer mostly becomes a serial killer. A hate crime killer is a person who chooses to kill another for belonging to a certain social group. It could be race, religion, sexual orientation or nationality.

He had hazel eyes.

Jealousy with a touch of mental instability.

The 1918 flu pandemic (the Spanish Flu) was an influenza pandemic that spread widely across the world. The pandemic lasted from March 1918 to June 1920. The influenza pandemic of 1918-1919 killed more people than the Great War, known today as World War 1 at somewhere between 20 and 40 million people. It has been cited as the most devastating epidemic in recorded world history. More people died of influenza in a single year than in four-years of the Black Death Bubonic Plague from 1347 to 1351. Known as "Spanish Flu" or "La Grippe" the influenza of 1918-1919 was a global disaster.

Larry Gene Bell was a serial killer from South Carolina. He murdered two girls, one 17 and the other 9. He was also suspected in another murder that involved a co-worker's girlfriend.

One victim, 17 year old Shari Faye Smith, was most likely kidnapped and murdered by Bell because Bell was obsessed with her older sister, whom was a beauty contestant. In fact whe won the Miss South Carolina title the year after Shari was murdered.

Bell was finally executed by the electric chair. In South Carolina he had a choice of lethal injection or "old sparky". He chose sparky.

Point of interest:After Bell had taken Shari Smith, he called the family home and wanted to speak with Dawn. As much as she didn't want to talk to him she did in an effort to get her sister back. It didn't work. He also had Shari write out her last will and testement and he then sent it to the family.

There have been many serial killers that have abnormalities to the frontal part of their brians. What this means exactly nobody knows. Whether their brains were like this from birth or early childhood, whether from head injuries, ect. There are so many questions and not enough answers as of yet. So the experts study the brains of people that seem to have to kill, hopefully someday there will be an answer.

Theodore John Kaczynski, born 22 May 1942, sent 16 mail bombs to universities and airlines from 1978 to 1995. He would eventually come to be called the 'Unabomber' because many of his initial mail-bomb targets were Universities... hence, Una-bomber.

I believe he prosecuted Kallinger and his son.

A serial killer is a person who in their mind think its okay to kill people. They feel pleasure knowing that they have someones lives in their hands.. they like being in control of situations and whether you can breathe or not..they can be anyone in this world. a granny, a mother a father a brother..

fact 1 out of 4 ppl are actually potential serial killers.

Some studies proven that most serial killers have had bad child hood experiences, most were alone, had to live for themselves and take charge early. other sypthoms. ect (bed wetting, nightmares, surreal dreams of murding or torturing people or things, thoughts or fanatasys about the same. snapping, or quick tempers).

That isn't entirely true. Not all serial killers think it is "okay to kill people". That is psychopaths that feel that way. Ted Bundy, for instance, said that he felt remorse after he killed and that he would go as long as he could without killing again, but that the impulse to kill over powered him.

Jeffery Smith was killed by the Black Cloak in 1988, his occupation is classified.

In my opinion, the motive was simple greed and hubris. The boys father was very rigid in his ideas and felt that his sons were not "measuring up" which made them despise their father and his control. They wanted to inherit sooner, not later and thought they could get away with the crime and "show" their father that he was wrong, that they could accomplish something. Their mother was at the wrong place at the wrong time and, well, they wouldn't have to share their inheritance.

With the Church still reeling from accusations of abuse by church priests, and coverups by higher-up church leaders, the last thing that was needed was a man like Peter Tobin. Pedephile, serial killer and church handyman, Tobin seemed to embody all things wrong with the Catholic church.

With an apology from the Pope himself, and monetary settlements for victims and families worth millions of dollars, there is hope that changes will be made to protect the millions of catholic children around the world from the very people they are taught to trust.
