You may want to think about rephrasing that.

No. "Recreational murder" is the term used within law enforcement to describe these types of killings. It's what serial killers do.

Thanks for pointing that out. I did a bit of digging and found a 1994 book titled "Using Murder: The Social Construction of Serial Homicide" by Philip Jenkins that says the term was used in 1984 in an HBO series...
