It is a common belief that crime is on the increase in modern society. It is not; on a measurable scale, it is falling. This development of twenty-four-hour news, though, means it is in our homes more than ever.
I am fascinated by serial killers. Not in the write them letters and ask them to marry me way, but in their psychology. What makes a murderer, murder and what makes serial killers keep murdering?
There could be as many as 4000 unidentified serial killers in the US alone as of 2019 — Author and former police detective Michael Arntfield.
The A-Z of UK serial killers started as a strange thought. There couldn't be as many twenty-six serial killers on this small island of the United Kingdom. There were considerably more. Killers I didn't get to talk about, murders such as the Worlds End Killings. When I started to research these killers, it became clear that there was a killer for every letter of the alphabet. So if you are obsessed with true crime, then sit back and let's take a walk through the alphabet and meet twenty-six of the most depraved minds, from Victorian times to the present day.
I just downloaded my copy, and I will leave a review on Amazon. I am familiar with your true crime stories, so I am sure the book will be fascinating. I do not believe in capital punishment, mainly because some on death row here in America are poor people of color who received a terrible legal defense. I don't have enough knowledge of the Uk's legal procedures to know about poor defenses, but I do know that yours suffers from prejudice, as does ours. I also don't believe in the concept of evil, but there are certainly people who enjoy inflicting horrible actions on other people. Some of these criminals are very intelligent as well as a very great danger to others. They deserve life imprisonment if only to protect other people.
Thanks for your stories. I will start your book tonight.
