Here's hoping lots of “wind-therapy” is happening on two wheels for all. First up is as I write this, Memorial Day weekend is upon us. Let us never forget those who have paid the supreme sacrifice for our great country to exist as the land of the free and the home of the brave!! Our GREAT military allows our freedom to exist! God Bless you all. Well, once again, the soon to be world famous “Skills On Wheels” rodeo has been a success! Not only was there a record turn-out (close to 200!), but the weather was beautiful and a great time was had by all! So many people to thank for helping out (Greg DJ ing, George for the great food, Roadmap for putting it together, scorekeepers, front gate sign-in table, Membership Booth, Safety Booth, Wretched Few for Security, Games set-up and down, and on and on. And it couldn’t have happened without those of you who supported the event just by your donations and time to be there. Including other Chapters support (Lake County ABATE, CMA, and others). And to those behind the scenes helping to make it all come together, a sincere “THANK YOU”. And a HUGE thank you to Ginny and The Boondocks for letting us have their property for this event!! Can't wait til the next one already!! Also our Chapter Guns Give Away went to two lucky winners at the end of the Rodeo. Speaking of Gun Give Always, ABATE STATE has theirs going on until December. For a $5.00 donation, you can win a 30/30 Lever Action Henry (made in USA), or second place a Double Barrel 12GA Shotgun!! Tickets can be obtained from any Chapter Member or at our meetings the 3rd Sunday of every month at 1 o'clock at The Boondocks, North Highway 98, Lakeland, Also, it looks like we have our new officers for this election cycle, as all offices are running un-opposed, with only “Products Office” vacant (which we will address asap). A huge thank you for those who stepped up to be an officer, and make this Chapter possible. RIDE SAFE AND ENJOY....Zman Wow what a great rodeo, and a big congrats to the winners of our gun drawing. Thank you for everyone's support. At this time I would like to thank our members for your confidence in me for serving as your Vice-president for the past 3 years.

Despite the difference in their criminal acts, sexual serial killers and pedophiles have similar characteristics. Biological, environmental and psychological theories of criminal behavior were studied which illustrated their significance to how a person can choose to commit a crime. The purpose of this study is to determine if there is a presence or absence within multiple forms of childhood trauma experienced between the sexual serial killer and pedophile.

  • 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.
