  • Serial Killers
    CHAPTER SEVEN SERIAL KILLERS hanks in part to a fascination with anything that is “serial,” whether it be T murder, rape, arson, or robbery, there has been a tendency to focus a good deal of attention on the timing of different types of multiple murder. Thus, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) distinguishes between spree killers who take the lives of several victims over a short period of time without a cooling-off period and serial killers who murder a number of people over weeks, months, or years, but in between their attacks live relatively normal lives.1 In 2008, for example, Nicholasdistribute T. Sheley, then 28, went on a killing spree across two states, beating as many as eight people to death over a period of several days in an effort to get money to buy crack. Sheley’s victims ranged from a child to a 93-year-old man.or At the time of these incidents, Sheley already had a long criminal history of robbery, drugs, and weapons convictions and had spent time in prison. Sheley is doing life in prison in Illinois for six of the murders and faces two additional homicide charges in Missouri. Unfortunately, the distinction between spree and serial killing can easily break down. For example, over the course of 2 weeks in 1997, Andrew Cunanan killed two victims in Minnesota, then drove to Illinois,post, where he killed another person, and then on to New Jersey, where he killed his fourth victim. While evading apprehension, and on the FBI’s 10 Most Wanted List, Cunanan was labeled a spree killer.

    477 MASS, SERIAL AND SENSATIONAL HOMICIDES* PARK ELLIOTT DIETZ, M.D., M.P.H., PH.D. Associate Professor of Law and of Behavioral Medicine and Psychiatry School of Law University of Virginia Charlottesville, Virginia M4 Y task today-that of conveying information about three understudied classes of offenses-compels me to speak to you without the quan- titative cloak of social science with which I would prefer to dress this grue- some subject. Of necessity, I rely on case examples and fragments of re- search, because no quantitative data are available on most of the topics addressed here. My approach is to describe the elements common to these three classes of offense, to describe examples of each class, and to suggest the subtypes most often observed for each class. COMMON ELEMENTS OF MASS, SERIAL AND SENSATIONAL HOMICIDES Mass, serial and sensational homicides all evoke a high degree of pub- licity. The predictably high publicity attending these crimes is among the motives of their perpetrators. Like John Hinckley, offenders in each of these categories see headlines as one of the predictable outcomes of their behavior, which they pursue in part for this purpose. The American preoccupation with celebrity is no secret. A recent issue of TV Guide, the weekly index to Ameri- can preoccupations, offers the following network and cable experiences: "Eye on Hollywood," "Hollywood Insider," "Star Search," "Celebrity Chefs," "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous," and "You Can Be a Star." The celebrity industry is of such compelling interest to the public that it has even spawned a secondary industry of celebrity "news" programs in the form of "Entertainment This Week," "Entertainment Tonight," "Show- *Presented as part of a Symposium on Homicide: The Public Health Perspective held by the Com- mittee on Public Health of the New York Academy of Medicine October 3 and 4, 1985, and made pos- sible by a generous grant from the Ittleson Foundation.

Fatal Attraction: The Serial Killer in American Popular Culture If a single figure can be said to exemplify American popular culture’s apparent fascination with violence, it is the enigmatic serial murderer. The mythos that has sprung up around the serial killer is both potent and ubiquitous; representations occur in various forms of media, including fiction, true crime, film and television, music, and graphic novels. So iconic is this figure, that one can even purchase serial killer action figures, trading cards and murderabilia.1 Notably, this is not an entirely niche market; CDs of Charles Manson’s music can be purchased from Barnes & Noble and, in 2010, Dexter action figures were available to purchase in Toys R Us. Indeed, the polysemic serial killer holds such a unique place in the cultural imaginary that he or she has in some ways come to be seen as emblematic of America itself.

  • The Incidence of Child Abuse in Serial Killers
    Journal of Police and Criminal Psychology, 2005, Volume 20, Number 1 The Incidence of Child Abuse in Serial Killers Heather Mitchell and Michael G. Aamodt Radford University Fifty serial killers who murdered for the primary goal of attaining sexual gratification, termed lust killers, were studied to determine the prevalence of childhood abuse. Informa- tion regarding the childhood abuse sustained by each killer was obtained primarily from biographical books, newspaper articles, and online sites. Abuse was categorized into physical abuse, sexual abuse, psychological abuse, and neglect and was then compared to societal norms from 2001. Abuse of all types excluding neglect was significantly higher in the serial killer population. For serial killers, the prevalence of physical abuse was 36%; sexual abuse was 26%; and psychological abuse was 50%.
