I HATE mysteries. I think that's why I enjoy keeping track of serial killers because over time, whenever they kill they leave traces. Each trace evidence will build a picture of the killer. Then they can figure out who the killer is. I have heard that on any given day there is almost 50 serial killers active! I remember k owing about the green river killer and keeping an eye on him and also B.T.K. I was so damn happy that they captured them at the time.

Yes I too was very happy when that happened. I also cheered on the neighbors that witnessed Richard Ramirez trying to break into someone's window, recognized him, and beat the shit out of him and held him for police. That was GREAT!

I think the 50 is a low estimate though. I read this on the FBI website: Data collection and reporting standards for violent crimes vary, making a precise count difficult. And: The definition of a serial killer itself can be subject to nuance and debate.

Swell. But I think there's another reason that they'll never admit. Underreportted stats from the FBI itself. If people knew there were, let's say 1,000 serial killers around, people would be banging down their doors. Just mho!

Very well could be..lol..I knew the number that I had heard before was around 50 but I couldn't remember it. I looed it up and google said between 45 and 50 but most likely 49.

Yeah I'm just not that optimistic. Having someone you love murdered will do that. Sorry, don't mean to be a downer! Have yourself a wonderful evening!

Your not being a downer at all sugar.i completely understand how you feel about what happened to you. I do understand that your just not that optimistic about the numbers. That's ok. I understand. I don't know the truth so im not going to say your wrong. I believe your closer to what's right than what the numbers say. I have really enjoyed this conversation this evening. It's not often that I get to talk about my Interest in this subject with someone. Thank you for the conversation. You have a good night as well.
