What makes a person not only murder but kill again and again? What makes a serial killer?
In this book Unit Two created a guide for the FBI and to assist their hunt for serial killers; causes, forensics, modus operandi, psychology, and by example, some of the more famous serial killers in history.
Every day, law enforcement officers across America are called to respond to murders. Each homicide case is tragic, but there are few cases more heartrending and more difficult to understand than serial murder.
For years, law enforcement investigators, academics, mental health experts, and the media have studied serial murder, from Jack the Ripper in the late 1800s to the sniper killings in 2002, and from the “Zodiac Killer” in California to the “BTK Killer” in Kansas. These diverse groups have long attempted to understand the complex issues related to serial murder investigations. Until the Serial Murder Symposium, however, there had been few attempts to reach a consensus on some of these issues.
This monograph presents the findings and collective wisdom of a multidisciplinary group of experts, who brought their individual experience and insights to the same table.
Many people have heard of serial killers, there are plenty of films and books about them, but this book lets you acknowledge serial killers from around the world who just haven't been mentioned in America or UK's media, yet they can be worse than infamous serial killers you have read about.
