According to a recent FBI study of serial murder, it has climbed to an `almost epidemic proportion'. It is believed that there are currently up to 6000 people a year dying at the hands of serial killers. The FBI and other law enforcement agencies estimate that there are between 35 and 50 serial killers on the loose at any given time. Other estimates put the number of killers closer to 500. In either case, officials expect these numbers to continue their dramtic rise. This is an up-to-date edition of an original in-depth study of serial killers at large, written by one of the world's foremost authorities.

Ruthless Serial Killers On The Loose: True Crime Stories Of Deadly Murderers From Around The Globe A lot of things contribute to the investigation of a crime - the intelligence of the killer (does he leave clues?), the perseverance of the police, presence of witnesses, technology available, and cooperation of the victims. If one of these works against the search for justice, the investigation can slow down, or worse, justice is not served. There was the Witch, who took children and made potions and medicines out of their blood and flesh. Have you heard of Snowtown, a town in Australia where the 'Bodies in the Barrels' were found? There was also Kenneth, the man, who, after being given second and third chances, chose to ruin his and other people's lives through murder. Interestingly, his case was similar to Austria's Jack Unterweger, the prisoner, turned celebrity, turned serial killer, who killed not just in his home country, but also in the United States. Lastly, you'll meet Lorenzo - the killer in the neighborhood. In all these cases, you will discover how the above mentioned factors will contribute to the development of the investigation.....

Hurricane Katrina was about to bombard the Louisiana Coast, and it quickly became evident that New Orleans was directly in its path. Prison officials ordered an evacuation of inmates from the local prison, and a caravan of busses took the unsavory passengers to other prisons in Alabama and Texas. As soon as the last three buses were full, the respective drivers headed to Texas in hopes of outrunning the life-threatening flood waters. Five death row inmates were left behind. It was certain the antiquated, inadequate levees would not hold for long. The result of their giving way would most certainly be catastrophic, and New Orleans inevitably would be submerged twenty-five feet beneath the deadly waters of Lake Pontchartrain. Notorious mob hitman Dick Blackwell escapes his death row cell just before the hurricane swamps the prison where he is incarcerated. His former cellmate, Earl Madison, also breaks free-but the two dangerous men go in opposite directions: one to a new life, the other back to his criminal past. Desperate to escape the law, Dick Blackwell assumes the identity of an old friend-and hides his own role in his friend's bloody death. Now known as James "Jim" Johnson, he can't help but fall in love with the first pretty face he sees. And Liz O'Brien can't resist the handsome stranger she encounters in the crowd of refugees taking cover from Hurricane Katrina. The new Jim Johnson must hide his past from the woman he finds himself falling for if he ever wants to lead a normal life. And to remain free, he also has to pass the scrutiny of the detectives her father hires. The newcomer's past is a little too suspicious for Liz's protective father, George O'Brien. Is it worth the risk to marry into a family of wealthy socialites whose every move is followed by the media? As time goes on, can he avoid the reporter whose job depends on covering-and photographing-James Johnson? Earl Madison, ex-con on the run is cunning-a master at the craft of crime-but, he isn't smart enough to elude the police forever. His life is a game of catch-and-release. Finding and blackmailing his old friend Dick Blackwell is his only hope to stay out of prison and off the executioner's list. He will also become a very wealthy man...at Blackwell's expense. Walter Wellington is the young, rising-star journalist who unwittingly plays a role in reuniting the two criminals on the loose...and bringing one of these dangerous killers back to justice.

Bestselling author, co-host of the hit podcast and Discovery + docuseries Unraveled: Long Island Serial Killer, and true-crime investigative journalist Billy Jensen goes to Columbus, Ohio, where he examines the unsolved cases of eighteen dead and missing women, whom he suspects were the victims of serial killers on the loose and operating under cover of the opioid epidemic in America's heartland. In Chase Darkness with Me, readers and listeners learned Billy Jensen’s journalist origin story, his struggles, his call to adventure, and his first successes in solving murders. In Killers Amidst Killers, readers will ride shotgun with Jensen as he takes on serial killers who are walking among us and planning their next moves in real time. The facts are not in old police reports and faded photos. They unfold before our eyes on the page. Our story begins in 2017, when two young women, best friends Danielle and Lindsey go missing in Columbus, Ohio, within weeks of each other, and their bodies are found soon thereafter. As Jensen investigates Danielle and Lindsey’s cases, he comes across other missing and murdered women, and before long, he uncovers eighteen of them. All unsolved. And no one was talking about it. These are not women who were raised in the street. They got hooked on pills. The pills were taken away. They get hooked on heroin. And when the money is gone, they have to sell themselves. It happens very quick. Through his investigations and the help of experts, Jensen identifies serial killers in Cleveland and Columbus. Why there? Because it’s easy. Sharks go where the swimmers are. Serial killers go where the easy prey are: Ground zero of the opioid epidemic. The heart of America. That is what happened to Danielle and Lindsey. But serial killers murdering sex workers in the 21st century will get 45 seconds on the local news, and page 3 in the local paper, and then can disappear in the wind. Jensen hunts these predators to bring peace to the victims’ suffering families while putting a spotlight on a system that is leaving hundreds of thousands of bodies in its wake.

Reason to be afraid - over 50 unsolved cases of serial murder Fact: murderers and serial killers do not always get caught. Behind every headline of a newsworthy conviction lie other cases of vicious murderers who got away, and who remain somewhere among us. Here in one giant volume are more than 50 of the most serious serial killings and other murder cases that continue to remain unsolved. The cases covered in this alarming book include: " Argentina's crazed highway killer, responsible for mutilating and killing at least five people since 1997, and dumping their bodies along remote highways " The Green River Killer, believed to be a middle-aged white man, who has claimed at least 49 lives to date in the Seattle-Tacoma area " South Africa's 'Phoenix Strangler', suspected of killing 20 women in the province of KwaZulu Natal. " The Twin Cities Killer - either one or several people responsible for a series of over 30 murders on the streets of Minneapolis and St. Paul, where the victims were mostly prostitutes " Costa Rica's elusive 'El Psicópata' (The Psychopath), thought to have murdered at least 19 people in this small quiet Central American country " 'The Monster of Florence', responsible for a series of 15 sexual slayings just outside Florence In each case it is not just the crimes that are horrifying and fascinating, but the response of local police and authorities to the lack of a conviction. Local authorities may fear to admit the continued existence of a serial killer at large; whilst police bodies face the temptation to 'tidy up' loose unsolved murders under the aegis of other admitted crimes.

*Includes pictures *Includes excerpts of contemporary accounts *Includes a bibliography for further reading When one hears the term "Victorian," many images come to mind. For some, the term conjures up visions of lace and gloves and delicate fans. Others think of tight corsets and even tighter morals. Others, swayed perhaps by one too many British costume dramas, envision gentle elegance and long lost beauty. Naturally, few people think of multiple dead bodies cast about in the streets or dark bedrooms, most mutilated to a shocking degree, and yet, those tragic images played a significant role not only in late Victorian London but ever since. In 1888 and 1889, a killer stalked the dark backstreets of the city through the notoriously overcrowded and crime-ridden Whitechapel district, murdering young women and then cutting their bodies up like a butcher. There have been a countless number of serial killers throughout history, and certainly more prolific ones, but the timing, circumstances, and unsolved nature of the case continue to make Jack the Ripper the most famous serial killer in history. The murders came at a time when media coverage could be both more acute and more widespread, and it allowed the public a closer look into how police agencies operated at the time, exposing both their strengths and shortcomings. Of course, the lack of modern forensics hamstrung the investigators in the late 19th century, and while the police file for the case was extensive and active for several years, much of the evidence disappeared from the file without explanation, possibly as souvenirs. Despite the fact the police interviewed thousands and considered hundreds of suspects, they were never able to arrest anyone for the murders. The intense media coverage also likely played a role in both the actual murderer and would-be copycats and pranksters sending hundreds of letters to police claiming to be Jack the Ripper. It's also indisputable that the use of a precise modus operandi, the serial killer being given a nickname, and the taunting letters sent to police all influenced subsequent serial killers and the way they were covered. Whether it's the Zodiac Killer, the Son of Sam, or the Boston Strangler, the antecedent of all 20th century and 21st century killers remains Jack the Ripper. Toward the end of 1968, a new and more sinister headline began to pop up. At first it was just in California and seemed to be simply a random crime, with a couple being murdered a few days before Christmas. It was a tragic tale, but in California, it was often dismissed as a byproduct of the youth culture of sex, drugs and rock and roll that often led young people to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Then, some months later, another couple was shot, and this time the man survived. The story he told was not of someone targeting either him or his friend, but of a type of madman shooting them again and again. The idea that there was an unhinged serial killer on the loose was confirmed when he began writing letters to the police and the newspapers, not only claiming responsibility for these killings but for others that either had been or would be committed. After he stabbed a third couple and then shot a cab driver in cold blood, he began to send more and more letters. These, like the earlier ones, were signed with a symbol understood only by the killer, a man who called himself "Zodiac." In addition to sending cryptic letters that authorities had to decipher, the Zodiac Killer used them to both taunt people and threaten more violence, warning that a failure to publish what he would wrote would lead him to "cruse [sic] around all weekend killing lone people in the night then move on to kill again, until I end up with a dozen people over the weekend." This book examines the cases, crimes, investigations, and attempts to identify all the potential suspects for the two notorious serial killers.
