List of serial killers

Recent studies reveal a disturbing fascination with serial killers in the U.S., with varying prevalence across states. Louisiana is notorious for its serial killers, such as Danny Rolling and Derrick Todd Lee, raising questions about an unusually high number of these criminals. Meanwhile, Dr. Scott Bonn's upcoming lecture in Connecticut will explore the psychological motivations behind serial killers, including insights from his experiences with infamous figures like Ted Bundy. Missouri ranks high in serial killings, partly due to its interstate system that facilitates criminal activity, while Illinois has been identified as a significant location for serial killer activity, with a staggering 680 victims. Alaska tops the list for serial killer occurrences per capita, attributed to its unique environmental factors and the brutal history of killers like Robert Hansen. These findings underscore America's complex relationship with true crime and the chilling realities of its most notorious criminals.
