    Between 1970 and 1999, Vronsky argues there was a surge of serial killers in the United States. So where did they come from? “A serial killer’s psychopathology is formed in childhood, between five and 14. They don’t really commit their first murder, on average, until they are 28. So if we look at those three decades, the John Wayne Gacys, the Ted B...

    There could be another rise of serial killers in 2030, according to Vronsky. And the market crash of 2008could have been a catalyst. “In the exact same way the trauma of war and Great Depression produced the golden age, there seems to be the same mix. A lot of kids lost their homes and had families that were broken because of a broken economy,” he ...

However, there are millions of children that grow up with abusive families or have absent parents, and they do not all become serial killers,...

    Vronsky says he has been paying very close attention to the case of accused serial killer, 66-year-old Bruce McArthur, who has been charged with eight counts of murder by Toronto police. “His age is very interesting. If he was statistically an average serial killer, then he could have been killing as early as the 1970s,” he says. Toronto police say...

  5. Mar 6, 2018 · Arntfield argues that if police had a wider gamut of data and an easier way to coordinate and compare that data, it's likely they would have arrested McArthur sooner.
