“led to 50 cold case murders being solved”

As long as they did not precondition him by asking about particular crime scenes or show him pics of missing women, he may actually be legit as opposed to the type that confess to everything thrown at them.

I wonder if he murdered the 8 prostitutes in Jeff Davis parish in Louisiana? I was just watching a documentary about it a few nights ago.

Reasonable estimates of the number of murders of babies OUTSIDE the womb and VIABLE by Dr. Kermit Gosnell are around 1800.

HE...HE is the biggest serial killer in US history.

Hands down, no doubt about it.

Can anyone here validate, or not, Fiji Hill’s claim?

A book on the subject that has won critical acclaim is Crow Killer by Raymond W. Thorp and Robert Bunker (New York: New American Library, 1972)

Did you mean “because that what he did to his Blackfeet victims.” ?

“But now one is telling the Texas Ranger he’s committed 93 murders himself...”

Judge Bonemaker would like to know if they were democrat women?

There are always a few predators in society, but I think there was a period in time from the late 60s through the early 1990s where it was possible for these kind of serial killers to go undetected for long periods.

Prior to the late 60s, tighter community bonds and social conventions allowed people to ask questions. Police officers, hotel clerks, gas station attendants, and servers at the local diner would all ask: “where are you from?”, “what’s your business here in town?”, “how long are you staying for?”. Part of this was friendliness, but part was also to be on the lookout for trouble. And they would ask those questions both of potential troublemakers and potential victims.

After the mid-60s, a lot of traditional social structures broke down and it became considered invasive, rude and possibly discrimantory to inquire too much about other people’s business. This made it easy for predators to travel about the country and blend in unnoticed, and for their victims to go mostly unnoticed as they disappeared.

From the 1990s onward, technology has made it much more difficult to remain anonymous. DNA testing has become so sophisticated that it’s highly unlikely that killer leaves no evidence. Credit card receipts, GPS, toll booth, and video cameras make it almost impossible to travel without creating a record.

I think these types of killers still exist, but they are now usually caught after far fewer victims.
