i'm sorry Jake but i can't agree. He seems disorganized (in the sense of the FBI's behavior-profiling unit that profiles serial killers--one of their main criteria is organized vs disorganized) and ...
While I respect your opinion, I must disagree regarding your classification of this person. He is a classic organized killer. His current toll of victims puts him in the spree category rather than serial.
His ability to do all of the things you state, hold a high profile position, travel frequently, effectively manage a semi-traditional relationship, and manage his psychosis for as long as he seemingly did lend credence to the classification as organized.
What would be of interest is knowing if he recently experienced some type of stressor in his personal life. In the break point of a spree killer it is often a situational breakdown that causes their escalation from a under-the-surface boil to an outright roiling cauldron.
His actions are indicative of an insane person in the way he contacted LE himself.
In the legal world, the saying is that a crazy person doesn't know they are crazy. In other words, a crazy person will commit their crime regardless of the reality of their own apprehension. They do what they do, no matter what.
But I could be wrong. |
