Serial killers
Posted on | November 5, 2009 | 67 Comments
Just reading about this serial killer in the US. Is there some link between size of population and the propensity for killers of this type?
Maybe it’s because the more people you have in your country the more likely you are to have mentalists like that. Or maybe it’s because the size of the country means it’s easier to operate in a kind of isolation. I don’t know. We’ve never had a serial killer, have we?
That said the numbers of women who have gone missing in Ireland, especially in Leinster, over the last few years would strike you as not particularly random. I think it’s slowed down a bit now but there was a time when women were disappearing much more regularly. Did we have a serial killer? Was he caught and put away for something else?
They have them in the US, Russia, the UK, I’m sure in other countries with larger populations. Surely it’s just a matter of time before we have one here.
It’d be good if we got one a bit different though. One who serially killed politicans or shit celebrities. Or one who killed from a list I provided to him. It’d be one long list, let me tell you.

HERE’S THE THING THAT STRUCK ME ABOUT THOSE, TWENTY – IF YOU LOOK AT THE TIMES OF THE ABDUCTIONS/DISSAPEARENCES IT’S PRETTY OBVIOUS IT WAS SOMEONE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF OFF-SEASON AIRFARES FROM THE USA TO GO TO IRELAND….IT THEY EVER BOTHERED TO CROSS REFERENCE THE PASSENGER RECORDS WITH THE TIMES, I BET MY BOTTOM DOLLAR THEY WOULD FIND SOME NAME CROPPING UP AGAIN AND AGAIN….

Would it begin with G, by any chance?

All the serial killers here attached themselve to political causes – Shankhill Butchers, Mad Dog McGlinchey and the rest.
Lets no forget english born Mark Nash for the Grangegorman murders and the roscommon murders. Lastly Brendan O’Donnell’s rampage in Clare/Galway a few years back.
We have more then enough crazies here…..

I think there was one operating in Ireland up until 2001 when this headcase was locked up.

Experienced detectives also mention that most of the killings and disappearances have happened at night – in the dead of winter when the hills are empty of traffic and local people are asleep in their beds.
There you have it – the killings are obviously the work of a psychotic sheep.

Maybe you have a greater propensity for killing everyone around you if you’re surrounded by Americans.
November 5th, 2009 @ 10:56 am
heh, good point.

this latest guy in the cleveland has fucked up the statistics. No longer will our favourite movie detectives be able to start their serial killer investigations looking for a white male. His wiseass young partner will have to remind him of “that brother in cleveland”
November 5th, 2009 @ 11:16 am
we may well have a serial killer but we’ll never know as our police force is far too inept to realise it.
November 5th, 2009 @ 11:16 am
True that, sam.

Mary Harney’s been killing for years now.

Interesting. Maybe we’ll never knew we had one until a farm with a load of bodies is found.
I think all farmers should be investigated forthwith as a matter of urgency.

I reckon those women who went missing in the 90s were indeed victims of one man. And I’d say he traveled with his job, door to door salesman, white goods service man or something like that. Probably had a van so it was easy to transport a body without being noticed.
That nutter caught in the mountains could well be him.

Well according to Hollywood, the classic profile of a serial killer would be a lonely socially awkward young man who is sexually inadequate, obsessive, resentful, can’t relate to any woman apart from his mother with whom he still lives.
And seeing as we haven’t got any of those in Ireland……
November 5th, 2009 @ 12:18 pm
…at least none that haven’t already been ordained.
November 5th, 2009 @ 12:18 pm
Especially not on this blog either …

They reckon that the USA has approximately 200 active serial killers at this time, that is to say people who have killed more than one person inside the last ten years, are expected to kill again and have not been detected (as in caught). Even allowing for the fact that American society is a little weird when it comes to violence, gun crime and a propensity for sheer social madness the rest of us find disconcerting, based on those figures, there have to be approximately six or so undetected serial killers at work in Ireland. I am aware of one man convicted for rape who moved in a circuit around Ireland and the UK, constantly travelling, who is a suspect for maybe twenty unproven deaths. Then too, quite a number of women went missing in the east midlands of Ireland in the late eighties early nineties. That stopped when a certain individual was convicted of rape – coincidentally I’m sure. He’s due for release soon. Sobering, eh? I’ve no doubt that we’re only catching the stupid ones. The really scary monsters are still out there.

‘most of the killings and disappearances have happened at night – in the dead of winter when the hills are empty of traffic and local people are asleep in their beds’
Psycotic Sheep or Santa Claus?
There was a Russian guy here in Toronto a few years ago that killed his wife and left her limbs in dumpsters and along rail lines here a few years ago. A Jamaican friend of mine said to me, What is it with you whilte people, you’re not content with killing someone, you have to butcher them as well. Black people just shoot them and leave them there and get the fuck away. You people are crazy.
November 5th, 2009 @ 1:08 pm
Russians are mad for the butchery
November 5th, 2009 @ 1:16 pm
“Black people just shoot them and leave them there and get the fuck away.”
That might be why so many of da Brothers are in prison.

Off topic alert
Anybody else here on UPC or NTL or whatever else the cunts are calling themselves now? Just realised that the cunts have hiked the prices again, and you dont notice because they dont send out bills anymore. Is that legal?
November 5th, 2009 @ 1:33 pm
They have to notify you of any increase by letter Sam.
November 5th, 2009 @ 1:34 pm
And yes, NTL are cunts.
November 5th, 2009 @ 1:34 pm
Russians are mad in every way. The episode of Sopranos where Pauli and Chris got the Russian guy to dig his own grave taught me that.
Why are all butchery type serial killers white?

We did have a cereal killer once.
November 5th, 2009 @ 2:35 pm
What about Malcolm McArthur, the guy in the dickie-bow who shot dead the bloke in the country who met him to sell him a shotgun, and then clobbered the nurse to death in the Phoenix Park and drove her away in her own car? He was arrested in the then Fianna Fail Attorney-General’s flat. He pleaded guilty so that no dirty Fianna Fail linen would be washed in public.
The Fianna Fail cunts can even manipulate serial killers when they need to.
November 5th, 2009 @ 3:03 pm
Fuck it, I’m doing nothing today. Mail me the list and I’ll get cracking.

I had a black cousin in Los Angeles who was murdered and butchered by a Hispanic nutter.
No joke. It was about 2 years ago.
The body was found in several bins and in the guy’s apartment by the killer’s cleaning lady.
Does this mean that Hispanic people are white too?
November 5th, 2009 @ 3:41 pm
Off-white.

You should go ask them.
I’d say that if it was a once off murder than not necessarily, but if it was part of a spree than yes, by the definition ‘all butchery type serial killers are white’
Don’t fuck with the definition, it’ll get you.

Can I have it decaf, venti as well please…

Twenty – its not me, and I knew you would not take it seriously….but its a logical lead the Gardai could have followed up on.
Anyway – you’d know if were me ‘cos first of all every mothers son in Belmullet would be found gagged, bagged and dismembered….

They’re not all white. When my name is googled, it returns a chap of the same name from Denver who was a serial killer in the 80s. Killed 17 prostitutes. He was black. Cooool.
November 5th, 2009 @ 4:39 pm
Not SuperGrover.
November 5th, 2009 @ 4:44 pm
That’d be an awesome serial killer name though.
“SUPERGROVER KILLS AGAIN”

All serial killers are not white males. Idi Amin wasn’t white, unless we’re color blind or pictures of him were photo enhanced.
Let us not forget the female serial killers. They are the sly ones — they use poison and let the undertaker bury their work. “Here darlin’ have a nice cuppa tea. It’ll take the chill out of yer auld bones.”

NY had Summer of Sam. I say we need Winter of.. eh… Willy?
November 5th, 2009 @ 5:07 pm
Winter of Wodewick.
It’s clean and efficient though, Lobo, you’ve gotta give ‘em that.
November 5th, 2009 @ 5:18 pm
‘Idi Amin wasn’t white’.
Clearly, but he wouldn’t be classified as a serial killer either.

Haven’t time to read back,so sorry if it’s been posted, but the gardai know who’s responsible for the Kildare women disappearing. He was caught by 2 guys out hunting while digging a large hole with a woman he had repeatedly raped in the boot, but they couldn’t pin the rest on him although he was working on a house 2 away from Deirdre Jacobs when she disappeared. He’s either out now or due out soon. I hope they keep a bloody good eye on him.
November 5th, 2009 @ 6:30 pm
I hope they beat the living fuck out of him on a daily basis. Like they say in the movies, Maybe nobody sees nothing.
November 5th, 2009 @ 6:30 pm
You’ve got ‘em. They’re just better at hiding their tracks.
November 5th, 2009 @ 6:34 pm
I’m not sure our criminals are any less retarded than yours
November 5th, 2009 @ 6:45 pm
Way’s to be a successful serial killer.
1. Select victims at random.
2. Plan 6 months in advance
3. Steal car
4. Blunt force to top of back, easy no mess
5. Bury in a very rural setting
6. Travel to another rural setting change clothes and burn car along with all used items
7. Don’t bring anyone else into it, complicates things
8. Don’t follow any times between kills
9. Mix up methods of killing every now and then
10. DON’T FUCKING BOAST
…enjoy
November 5th, 2009 @ 6:47 pm
But the thing about being a serial killer is that you’re compelled to do stupid stuff like take trophies and taunt the cops. By your very nature you can’t help yourself.
So while someone could get away with a load of kills using the classic how not to fall into the classic serial killer trap stuff, you wouldn’t be a true serial killer. You’d just be pretending to be a serial killer even though you would have serially killed lots of people.
If you get me.
November 5th, 2009 @ 6:58 pm
You’d only be a serial killer by definition not character?
November 5th, 2009 @ 7:06 pm
Yeah. Because if you were one by character you’d follow the patterns.
November 5th, 2009 @ 7:24 pm
4. Blunt force to top of back, easy no mess
5. Bury in a very rural setting
6. Travel to another rural setting change clothes and burn car along with all used items
I think there’s bit more to it for a serial killer than just killing someone with a bang on the head. Sex, mutilation, humilation etc. etc.
If not whats the point?

There’s a great scene in The Wire when McNulty and Kima are sent to FBI Behavioral Lab to find out more about their own Baltimore Serial Killer of Homeless People. Goes something like this
FBI big-shot introduces himself as the writer of this book and that book. FBI arselicking sidekick explains to McNulty how his big-shot partner captured The Unabomber
Mcnulty – “Didn’t he go undetected for 20 years?”
FBI Dude – “Yes”
McNulty – “Didn’t you only catch him after his brother turned him in?”
FBI Dude – “Yes”
November 5th, 2009 @ 9:17 pm
Glorious.
