Who interests you the most?
I was wondering what serial killer interests you guys the most. I would have to say that Ted Bundy fascinates me. He was smart (psychology degree), good looking, seemed just as normal as anyone, yet he ended up killing over 30 girls.

The first Zodiac Killer was one of the greatest mass murders of all time.

Ever since I heard a lecture in a history class about Vlad the Imapler, I would probably say him, only because his story is SO blood thirsty, and seems unreal-even though this was over 500 years ago. But for nowadays, I would have to agree with you on Ted Bundy, only because he escaped prison a few times, only to kill again, and had the nation scared to death. My parents kept a shot gun by the front door during that time, even though we lived in Idaho. We were all relieved when they caught him for good. I remember my dad cheering when they said on the radio that Bundy was finally dead.

I guess you're thinking about Heriberto Seda as the 2nd Zodiak. In NYC I think.

It's got to be Jack the Ripper for me , the 'first' serial killer, i've been to the area where the crimes were committed and obvioiusly it has all changed but it was still eerie at night

Ian Brady interests me the most. He is highly intelligent and also very manipulative. I read the book he wrote "The Gates of Janus" and found it very fascinating, especially his analyses of other serial killers. I wrote to him once and he wrote back. I said that I wished he would do an analysis of the Bernardo-Homolka case as it so closely parallels his own.

OK, Joe, I am a TOTAL Neanderthal when it comes to JTR. I know he terrorized the area sometime in the 1800's. It baffles me that in that small area you said that he did his killings, that nobody caught him, or saw him commit his evil deeds. He might be the only one to commit the "perfect crime (or crimes) in all of history. He met his maker, and his one true judge when he kicked the bucket. It will be interesting, when we all are in heaven, to know the true identity then (among other secretive things that went on in history.)

I, too, have thought about writing a book about the case. I wouldn't make the foolish claim that I solved the case as Cornwell did though. What stops me is questions such as..
Can I give this case a fresh perspective?
How does Autumn of Terror sound as a working title J.B.?
You and I collaborate?

Supe, I read somewhere (and I think it was Colin Wilson or maybe Don Rumbelow) where it was said that on judgement day, all the 'ripperologists' will be in the crowd when St Peter (or whoever) says 'Jack the Ripper come forward and state your name.' And he will step forward and all the ripperologists will go WHO? |
LOL!!!! Yea, that would be interesting, indeed!!!!

the book deal
When Drummy and JB collaborate on this book that will make them rich, I believe it is only fair that some credit goes to the girls who have contributed so generously to the investigation...ofcourse that doesn't include me, but I am one of the girls and that should account for something....

Actually I do not think most of you will get it. It is a commercial in my area and I apologize in advance. I was kind of joking with myself when I posted it.
I still think it is a doc but the experts will never agree.

It would make more sense and certainly more dramatic if Jack was some sort of supernatural being. But the truth is, he wasn't. He was Mr. Obscure and then he killed and killed again. He slashed his way into history and into our nightmares. What manner of man does things like that? A monster. A monster that looks and acts human.

Drummie, you are good at making it sound creepy, and down right scary. You should be a screen writer for scary films!!!

Drummer, talk some sense to the girls. You're the PR guy. Make them see reason. No doctors, vampires, celery, broccoli, supernatural oddities or vegetables were resonsible for the murders in Whitechapel.
I'm going for another prowl around Whitechapel tomorrow night so if I get attacked by a green vegetable I'll know which board to complain to!

Now JB, you know I have been in this dang dungeon since you left me here, I might add without food, keys or money. So I was just asking for nice little vacation, Is that so wrong..I don't care who yall decide JTR was, I still feel I deserve a little relaxation..Suse aka Princess Suzlock is going to the corner to sulk till JB decides to admit I deserve a little R&R.....

Because my Dear JB, you left me here without any food, keys or money ...Celery was the only thing you forgot to clean out of your fridge...I think we should discuss where I may get some R&R when you get back, Love. It must be the hunger that has gone to my head, also the loneliness of being by ones self can cause drastic consequences..You really should remember to take better care of me when you leave..Especially more than just unlocking the door..

Thank you my prince. At least you realize how loyal and hard working I've been lately, JB seems to think I am asking too much, LOL. Now if we could just get this dang book written I can go relax in Jamaica, on the beach in a hut...That would be so nice right now...Love you~Princess
