 OVERKILL Mass Murder & Serial Killing Exposed -Plenum Publishing |
What could possibly motivate the seemingly ordinary - Jeffrey Dahmer - to lure victims to his home so he could drug, lobotomize, sexually assault, and then devour them? What could explain why Daniel Rolling committed the horrifying and grisly murders of students at the University of Florida in Gainsville? What could have motivated Joel Rifkin - avid gardener and "boy next door" - to strangle victim after victim? Did Colin Ferguson "go berserk" when he emptied two cartridges of bullets into the bodies of his fellow passengers on the Long Island Railroad? What could drive James Huberty to walk into a fast-food restaurant in southern California and cold-bloodedly murder the patrons in a stream of bullets? - a not uncommon event these days. Criminologist Jack Levin - the nationally renowned authority on multiple murder - has led the field in investigating these phenomena for over a decade. In this absorbing work, he holds a magnifying glass to the perpetrators of these hideous crimes to explain the seemingly inexplicable. He produces profiles of the kinds of people who follow these murderous paths and examines the reasons behind their vicious acts. He also describe the latest law enforcement methods used to track down these heinous killers. |
