Reply #3: It didn't come on suddenly at all...

if you went to my http://news.onemissingperson.org site and poked around, you would probably notice it's been an obsession with me for atleast a couple of years and as my domain kind of implies, it's not so much about serial killers as it is about missing persons:




I think conservatively about 120,000 folks are reported missing every year in the United States alone (many missing person sites estimate higher numbers in the hundreds of thousands), but fortunately only 2 percent stay missing for more than 30 days. That number is still over 2,000 A YEAR!

AND if only 10% of that is serial killer related, then that's over 400 serial killer victims in the US a year.

These stats are relatively meaningless by themselves without anything to back them up, but I've found in my research that between one and two bodies a day (on average) are found in remote areas that obviously died under suspicious circumstances and are either never identified or their murders never solved. That is between 300 and 500 bodies a year that "could" atleast be serial killer related.

I have been trying to keep track of all these found bodies on my website:

http://NEWS.OneMissingPerson.org/

and most of these news articles were found with google news alerts for "body found" (and from other missing person related groups I belong to) and I get (on average) five reports a day from google. There are probably a lot more I don't hear about.

In short, it's a problem that gets practically no attention which I am trying to rectify by posting here maybe 5% of the total alerts I get everyday. Part of the problem can be rectified by diverting drug and prostitution investigation and harrasment money to the violent crime departments of local LE agencies here and around the world,

Anyway, thanx for asking,
