The grim and chilling subject of Serial Killers tends to stir deep fascination coupled with a collective societal shudder. It's an underbelly of criminal activity that has been researched, analyzed, and profiled extensively, yielding intriguing insights and patterns. In the United States, a disproportionate number of the world's recorded serial killers have left their horrifying legacy, with the period between 1970 and 2000 marking the peak of such crimes. It's worth noting that while these crimes evoke shock and horror, they constitute less than 1% of total homicides.
