Murderers or monsters, normal people turned bad or people born with the desire to kill; it doesn’t matter where they come from, serial killers strike dread into our hearts with a single mention of their names. Hunting in broad daylight or stalking from the shadows, we are their prey and their hunt is never done until they are caught or killed. With a worrying number of them living in our communities, working alongside us at our places of employment and sharing the same spaces where we spend time with our families, serial killers are just another neighbor that we barely think about.

Amazing to hear of all the unsolved murders since the year I was born. I guess shows like CSI or bones or whatnot have left the impression that technology can solve most crimes. I guess we're still a few years away from that.
You should have included o.j. because the "real killer" is still out there. LOL
