^^^ Also, that article STARTS OFF wrong. The definition a serial killer as one who kills at least THREE people in non-consecutive order. That thing was so full of bad info You should just go ahead and take it down so you don’t look quite so stupid. Then again, it might not matter at this point.[/quote]
No, your information is old. They actually cover that information and redefine it here:
"The different discussion groups at the Symposium agreed on a number of similar factors to be included in a definition. These included:
â?¢ one or more offenders
â?¢ two or more murdered victims
â?¢ incidents should be occurring in separate events, at different times
â?¢ the time period between murders separates serial murder from mass murder
In combining the various ideas put forth at the Symposium, the following definition was crafted:
Serial Murder: The unlawful killing of two or more victims by the same offender(s), in separate events"
Thanks for including me in the conversation of seniors who don’t understand the search function and haven’t updated their information. You might want to read the rest of that article, while you’re at it, just so you’re up to date. (and yes, if you squint you can see the letters fbi.gov in that addy).
Push- Why not include my whole first post while you’re at it?

One of the definitions of “serial killer” is one who kills at least 3 people in no-consecutive order. Dahmer waited 9 years between his first and second victims. This guy, if not put away, would have slowly escelated his monsterish behavior and more children would’ve gone missing.
What’s wrong with this guy can’t be fixed by time, or abuse, or rape, or whatever. He needs to be put down like a rabid dog, 'cause for all intents and purposes that’s what he is. And, I agree that the father shouldn’t be telling the media [or anyone] that he intends to kill Woodmanese whether he intends to actually do it or not.
But, I hope that revenge is exacted and Woodmanese dies a death 10x more gruesome than the child he murdered, and the local police somehow turn a blind eye to the situation and let it fade away.[/quote]

I agree with you, but honestly I don’t think people like this killer feel things the way you and I do, and thus I don’t think theres any real gain in torturing them before you off them.[/quote]
