Both excede the Ripper and the Moors Murderers. Then there was Fred and Rosemary West, they were stopped in the late 80's with a total of at least 12.

It always makes me wonder why Psychopathy pretty common yet serial killers are so rare. Cos really, they are quite rare, the extreme violence they commit. Plus the compulsions and everything else. You read 'Without Conscience'???
