And again, to meet the criteria for serial killer, it would be three or more victims with a cooling off period of one week in between or a timeout of at least one week in between. So even if somebody was horrible enough and stupid enough to kill the first person, are they going to be able to get away with it the second and the third time?

Right. It could very well be. I think you're onto something. You're absolutely right. And also, I mean, what about internet detectives, right? Put a picture on Facebook. Facebook or Twitter and say, catch this person. They did X. They're caught in 20 minutes, right? So I think you really can't get away with stuff these days. I wouldn't even try. I wouldn't recommend it.

So I do think the detective work and the science is there to prevent or at least catch before someone eventuates to the level of serial murderer. That being said, let's hope not. And I also know that if people really want to do something awful, They will.

I don't want to go down this slippery slope, but honestly, there are mass murderers who, if they don't have guns, they set a house on fire or they push a car in front of a train. They'll stab you. They'll find a way. Right. So I wonder.

absolutely so it's it's interesting i collected those data twice and once uh the data showed that women got away with it longer and then the second time i did another study it was just about equal and i have those data in front of me the killing span we called it the mean years killing for men it was 8.7 years for women it was 7.8 years so just about just about equal So they get away with it.

But you're right. I mean, if somebody is leaving this, if a male serial killer is sexually assaulting victims and leaving this trail of, you know, unfortunate dead bodies around the town, you're going to say, whoa, there's somebody there. Let's catch them. They're going to work really hard at it. Versus female serial killers, if there's...

This is awful, but babies dying in a hospital, it takes somebody to go, hold on, wait, there's a statistical anomaly somewhere. Let's go back and check it out.
