Never heard of him until now. Maybe we just stopped being as interested in them across the pond?

The fact is there are probably lots of serial killers out there, they just cross a lot of state lines so no one puts it together.

Years ago there was a false story circulating that the reason he hated Hollywood was that he resented the fact that he auditioned for and failed to get a role on the Monkees.

That would have made his story that more more interesting.

The Hollywood history podcast You Must Remember This did a 12-part series on him that really good. I don’t recall anything about the Monkees specifically but he was an aspiring musician and that really didn’t work out to well.

Honestly, it sounds like if we just let deranged psychos do art stuff then they maybe don’t go on to start cults or wars and things.

I dunno, I guess it's hard to compete for the public's attention with your 3-4 victims when we regularly have mass murderers killing 10-20 in an hour.

The recent serial killings in Tampa have gotten a couple minor stories over the past 2-3 months, but overall haven't gotten that much attention because it's a black male targeting other blacks in low income neighborhoods and that doesn't sell newspapers.

yeah, spree killers, be they terrorists or not have taken the spotlight. i guess people getting gunned down randomly during the day evokes more fear than a buncha prostitutes or other night crawlers getting butchered and dumped in a ditch.

i mean guys like the long island serial killer get minimal press despite being hugely profilic and modern in that he uses craigslist to hunt his victims
