Comment on Are there any serial killers still active in the US today? With all the tech like dna, fingerprints, flock camera's etc. Would it be almost impossible to be one?
There’s estimated to be upwards of 50 serial killers currently active in the US today.
Who’s coming up with that estimation?
The FBI along with others that study crime rates and methodology.
Who do you think would be studying this sort of thing?
50 and growing, with Kash on the job.

There’s people that study these things as a profession.
I remember when words like “study” and “research” had particular meanings…
There are people who study this shit in an academic setting.
I think you mean “Informational Murder Porn”
I was asking for you to link a source in an apparently not direct enough way.
Would you please link a source to this claim so I don’t have to just take your word for it?
I cannot find the FBI actually saying how many they estimated were currently active.

It’s a estimation made from the data of unsolved murder statistics mostly.
That’s why the stat us up to 50 and not a firm number.
