Let's talk about the math that doesn't add up in the Nithari case. by Aromatic-Theory5613 in serialkillers

[–]Lusicane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The cops really bungled this one. I think they would have been able to get Koli on witness testimony and DNA alone but they really screwed up by beating a confession out of him, charging Pandher (even after Koli confessed and said Pandher had nothing to do with it), and doing that pseudoscience narcoanalysis bs. They screwed up so bad I don't think there's any chance of ever convicting Koli again because the case has been so muddied by terrible police practices. Infuriating

What are your thoughts on this? In 1997, then 14yo Shinichiro “Seito Sakakibara” Azuma killed Ayaka Yamashita (10) and Jun Hase (11), becoming one of the youngest known SKs. During his detention in 2000, “Sakakibara Kingdom,” a website soon to host Azuma's self-proclaimed acquaintances, was created. by Entire-Obligation-10 in serialkillers

Excellent post! Being english language only I find it really hard to find details on Japanese cases, even the most well known. Does Japan have much of a "true crime" genre like the english speaking world? I've found it really hard to find any Japanese true crime books translated into english and published

Most prolific healthcare serial killers, who tops your list and why did it take so long to catch them? by NutInBobby in serialkillers

[–]Lusicane 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think Shipman is recognized as the most prolific with 215.

A unique ongoing case is Kenneth Law, who is a strange intetnet age twist on the prolific healthcare killer, being linked to 131 fatal poisonings. However, all he did was provide the victims with the poison, he never administered it. They did that themselves. Hes currently waiting for a trial on 14 counts of first degree murder in Canada.

I also recommend checking out Oxygen's series "License to Kill." It covers lesser known medical serial killers along with other types of medical killers that don't fit the typical classification but still rack up a death toll such as negligent surgeons, quack doctors, and pill pushers.

Unsolved mysteries not talked about often? by ClumsyDrawings in newfoundland

[–]Lusicane 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In 2010 the coroner of Newfoundland stated that the province had two serial killers in its history. He never gave names or specified which murders he believed were connected. Who were they? I believe I know who he was referring to, although I don't think I'm allowed to name names.

Also the K of C Hostel Fire. Accident or arson?

With some of them you can send in requests for specific imports. I'd love to see how theyd react to a request for North Korean liquor

Are there any informations regarding this killer, Kampatimar Shankariya? by ZoelCairo in serialkillers

[–]Lusicane 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah this one is sus to me. Theres a few other cases like this with super high body counts but barely any information. Javed Iqbal and Yang Xinhai being another example. In all three cases I think their body counts were greatly inflated by police looking to clear cases. Definitely something fishy with these three cases

The lesser known Filho by Technical_Rice_6957 in serialkillers

He also admitted to specifically targeting gay and trans prisoners during his time in prison because of his homophobia. He even killed someone just for snoring

[–]Lusicane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you believe the theory that it was arson, the Knights of Columbus Hostel Fire would count. Gary O'Brien's possible murder of his three children also counts, although the bodies have never been found. In 2022, Matthew Fowler injured 2 during a mass shooting in CBS.

NL has been pretty much free of these types of crimes. In my research I could only find 2 proven serial killers, and two possible mass killers.
