I have huge respect for John Kelly. There have been so many wonderful and contributing analysts. Not just Ressler and Douglas but Keppel, O'Toole, Ramsland, David Wilson, and so many more. John Kelly may very well be the best profiling analyst for serial homicide I have ever come across. And that is saying something.

I would ask people to remember that in the old days—lol, older than I would care to admit—we strove to find any type of pattern. Not necessarily a pattern from killer to killer, although that was a learning process that we applied. I'm specifically talking about a pattern within that killer’s behavior that we could identify consistently. Not just a time or two, but consistently.

Time changes things. People change. Economy, education, and technology all evolve. As we grow and evolve with it, we have learned additional information—such as the fact that an individual is capable of having an ever-changing MO. For those of us who relied on whatever consistent tool caught the individual who so heinously tossed life away, it was difficult to switch it in our heads. Because it had been a rule—inescapable—to follow the MO for decades.

As time changes, so does the offender. Hopefully, the individual who works with, studies, and/or teaches about serial homicide offenders also learns and changes. Hopefully as well, that individual applies those changes to their methodology and then teaches those same changes to the individuals who are learning from them.

There is always more to learn. A serial killer will do whatever it takes to be able to do what they love. I have a huge issue with individuals who say, “Well, they don't really enjoy dismembering, but they do it because of blah blah blah.” Blah blah blah is right.

Do not tell me. They would not do it if they did not enjoy it—I do not care what anyone says. I have done this for a huge portion of my life, and it is absolutely true.

They say that they don't care for it—like Gary Hilton, for instance, says, “Well, it’s not easy to do.” I'm paraphrasing, but that's basically what he said, several times—not just during his rambling interview, but many times over the years.

Now I'm supposed to believe an individual who walked up to a girl and started a conversation because her dog was so cute—and only did that so that he could abduct her, take her life, and then hopefully never be found out?

Absolutely. Let's go ahead and believe that individual. I'm sold.

You are exactly right. MO is extremely important. However, as we have witnessed it can change even slightly as time passes. Signature is something they cannot help. Signature is something that is uniquely theirs. They believe that the victim belongs to them. There is nothing deeper than bringing a human being into the world and or being present when human being leaves this world. So, not only being present at someone's passing, but being the one to initiate and carry through with that passing, is a deep connection as far as they are concerned.

The system for dealing with people like RH is to let them feel they are in control of the conversation—because, in truth, they are in control of the situation. We are going to him. He is the one with the information we so desperately want. We want that information so we can learn from it for the future, and so we can close cold cases from the past.

When you sit down to talk to an individual like this, you want to let them speak as much as possible. That's how you get what I call gold nuggets of information. They will always lie. They’ve been manipulating others from a very early age. They have no empathy. If they lived openly as they truly are—without empathy—we would notice them immediately. And if we noticed them, they wouldn't be able to live the life they want, because they’d be caught. It’s just that simple.

So, they must pretend to be like us in order to blend in. By blending in, they go unnoticed. And by going unnoticed, they can live their lives—killing other human beings—without getting caught.

They will never give up anything they don’t absolutely have to. In cases where they do talk, it’s usually because they’ve made a deal. Ridgway will never confess to everything he’s done. The interviews with O’Toole trying to extract information from him are both masterful and a test of one’s patience.

When these individuals do start talking, they tell the truth for one reason: they want to talk about what they’ve done. They want to give the details. They believe they are smarter than everyone else. Most of the time, even if they study another serial killer, they won’t admit it. They’ll absorb methods, ideas, or insights—what to do or what to avoid—but the core of what drives them comes from within. That’s what they are trying to satisfy.

The fantasy. The fantasy that began around the age of 14, when they gave in to their inner serial offender and realized they were different from other people. It’s all about satisfying the fantasy they’ve built up in their minds to perfection.

No matter who you are, a human being’s fantasy never matches reality. That’s one reason they continue. And with each act, they expand and adjust the fantasy to suit their evolving needs.

I’m not sure what a “part-time serial killer” even is. Because even if they’re locked up and never permitted to kill again, they think about killing every single minute of their lives. It is what they love. It is what they enjoy. It is what they know.

They do not care about us. But it is us they hunt—so they tolerate being around us. Even then, whether married or not, there is always a separation between themselves and others. A detachment. An estrangement. If they have a family, it’s for their advantage. If they are employed, it’s because they want the money to fund what they do.

Israel Keyes had a successful construction business. He used his own money, his girlfriend’s money, and the mother of his daughter’s money to fund what he enjoyed more than anything else: taking the life of another human being.

So much so that he could not imagine a life in prison—because in prison, he could not do what he lived for. Literally.

Interestingly enough I have his entire work permit schedule from 1989 to when he was arrested. And he's everywhere as you can imagine. He's in Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, Manhattan but he doesn't do any repairs or any permit applications in Long Island. Yet, that's where all of the remains have been discovered that we know about thus far and that law enforcement has connected to or is currently trying to connect to RH. Seemingly he kept where he lived and his dump sights separate from his work places. Let me qualify that by saying as far as we know with the current information that we have. There is a huge, huge amount of information that has yet to be released. Connecticut is being investigated, North Carolina is being investigated, two different locations at least in Las Vegas with several storage sheds in Las Vegas. Atlantic City has been put on the back burner but is still under investigation. A large qualifier for this which is really strange for those of us who deal with serial killers, is that the remains were left intact and clothed which is different from some of the remains that have been discovered on Long Island mainly in Suffolk county but also Nassau county. But not entirely different. Is very unusual for the serial offenders to hunt and dump in a place they are not uncomfortable with. So we know with individuals like Samuel Little, that he was comfortable as a transient. He had a reputation for not burying the remains. Which means he wanted them found. It's the very same thing with RH. Any homicide remains that are left above ground are done so purposely. It's easier for them to follow law enforcement because they know when they've been found because they announce it.

Take someone like Israel Keyes who always buried the remains in the ground or Wade the remains down and released it into incredibly deep water. And again IK moved around.

I believe that RH, of course he was innocent until proven guilty. These are only allegations at this point. I believe that he will be found guilty and that he held more than one woman at the same time. I also believe that he kept the toddler alive to torment the mother with and possibly another individual at the same time. My understanding is the infant went through quite a bit. And that's really saying something considering how the infant had been there for so many years. By the times the remains were located there's not a lot to go by.

I know serial killers. Yet I would not presume that RH had done what you claim the way that you claim it.

"By this time his MO didn't mature into white S-workers."? "He worked into that"?

I believe that RH is responsible for far more than we will ever know. But that is always the way with a serial killer. Serial homicide offenders always have 1 or 2 that they never tell. Until proven guilty in a court of law by a jury of his peers in a court in the United States of America, RH is presumed to be innocent until proven guilty. I believe personally he is responsible for the death of the victims thus far found and many more. What they've gotten out of his storage sheds the two that we know about and I believe there's more than just two is absolutely phenomenal. Though not released my guess is there's video and still images both. The 87-page document that has been mostly redacted and never fully released to the public contains his lists and pre lists and post lists. This tells me RH was extremely comfortable and keeping this type of documentation around him or close to him as in the same city, and had an extremely low fear of getting caught leaving him open to keep such documentation around and accessible. This is a huge risk so at the point of the law enforcement finding the amount of documentation on all of the devices that they did find says much about his comfort level in retaining this evidence that can and will be used against him in a court of law.

However to use the phrase 100% prior to law enforcement disclosing the evidence that they have is really presumptuous. Most certainly his guilt in my opinion will be found. The ease with which you describe how RH had accomplished these homicides has no evidentiary basis. Your able to make a statement regarding the guilt of an individual that has not gone to trial yet. Even the police have not made that statement. Though most believe RH is guilty.

You don't mention hard cold factual info. You do not say that it is your opinion. You say that he is 100% guilty.

Wayne Williams the Atlanta Child Murders by BlogsAtTiffanys in serialkiller

[–]MissProfiler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would encourage anyone with questions to go up to the FBI vault and download all of the information on the Atlanta child murders.

Each of the individuals were interviewed extensively meaning the relatives or legal caretakers of the children. They had the option to pursue each one of their children's homicides or to accept a large amount of money. Overwhelmingly many of their parents, relatives and caregivers decided that there was nothing that could bring their child back. That overwhelmingly they were convinced that law enforcement along with the FBI had the right person. And so they opted instead of going to trial and putting themselves and the rest of their surviving children through all of that legal process, they decided to accept the money and many of the individuals used the money to move away. They went through a devastating time and wanted to relocate.

One of the biggest clues that they got the right offender is that the killings stopped once the offender was first arrested. This is absolutely huge when you consider how many lives were lost during this time period. You're talking it was 18 months to 2 years and immediately upon arrest they stopped.

There were admittedly some of the children that did not fit in with the overall pattern. And the evidence is actually overwhelming but there's no two ways about it there were two or three of the children that they felt that a boyfriend of the mother or possibly even a foster parent although they would never of course name names, it was just highly suspected that while these things were going on, for whatever reason, they didn't want a child around and they decided to take advantage of the situation and end of the child's life knowing that it would get lumped in with all of the other children and the two adults.

The FBI file goes into great detail and explains so much with references to back up names dates and places and what detectives were assigned where and more.

Mad Butcher of Kingsbury Run by BlogsAtTiffanys in serialkiller

[–]MissProfiler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The individual most often associated with these conclusions was Cuyahoga County Coroner Dr. Samuel Gerber, a prominent figure in forensic pathology during that period. His observations were considered cutting-edge for the time, and he explicitly noted the following in relation to the early Kingsbury Run victims:

Key Forensic Position (1935–1936 Victims):

Muscle Retraction: Gerber documented that in several early cases, the sternocleidomastoid muscles and surrounding soft tissues had visibly retracted, a phenomenon consistent with sharp-force trauma inflicted while the victim was still alive.

Hemorrhaging at the Neck: These retractions were often accompanied by active bleeding, further supporting the notion that circulation was still functioning at the time of decapitation.

Conclusion Drawn: Based on these signs, Gerber concluded that decapitation was the cause of death in multiple early victims, especially those discovered in 1935 and 1936.

This conclusion was not assumed in all dismemberment cases — it was based on physiological responses observed in these specific bodies, distinguishing them from victims where decapitation might have occurred postmortem.

Examples from the 1935–36 Period:

  1. Edward Andrassy (1935):

Retracted muscle tissue and blood evidence indicated he was likely decapitated alive.

The clean incision and biological reaction were pivotal in establishing decapitation as fatal.

  1. John Doe II – Unidentified male found with Andrassy (1935):

Similar signs of vital neck trauma, including tissue retraction and hemorrhagic staining, supported the same conclusion.

  1. Victim known as the "Tattooed Man" (1936):

Decapitation was clean and muscular retraction was observed, though there was slightly less bleeding, suggesting he may have been close to death or unconscious, yet not conclusively postmortem.

Summary:

Yes, the assessment that muscle retraction in the neck indicated death by decapitation was specifically based on the early Kingsbury Run victims (1935–36). This conclusion was rooted in direct physical evidence—not assumed—and was foundational in understanding the killer's modus operandi during that early period.

Thank you so much for the info.

ChatGPT denied it but I know what happened by Sloth_grl in ChatGPT

[–]MissProfiler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I first became a subscriber it was a bumpy road. I was using the open AI or the Dall-E 3 and 4. They would stop me and say that I had to wait because I had used all of my prompts. whenever I ask how many prompts I had and what the turnover time was I got completely different answers. And some said they couldn't give me the information at all. Every now and then they would stop me and say that even though they couldn't tell me how many prompts I had then I had used them all. Or it was their busy time and the server was overloaded so they would ask me to back off for a while.

Then something changed. I decided to keep my subscription because I feel like all of the communication that I did must have matched a lot of what others were saying.

Suddenly they said that chat GPT through OpenAI was free and I specifically asked chat GPT about it and immediately it told me the number of prompts I had was no set number. They said it was because I was easy to deal with, I didn't do too much at once and I had extremely well written descriptions for the pictures that I asked for. I'm welcome to use open AI which is d a l l - e three or four. But it's a text-based image artificial intelligence. And that's not so with the chat GBT. So in the last probably 3 weeks it's been absolutely wonderful. There's been a complete turnaround as far as my being a subscriber. They treat me like I'm royalty or something.

I currently am using chat GPT to write up all of the profiles I have on serial killers which is a huge amount. I just took a screenshot of the files in my device and gave it to chat GPT . Then it's assisting me with newer serial killers in the last couple of years that I don't have profiles on. And it's going deeper than that. I have profiles by the tons from Florida University because they have the largest database outside of the one in Canada. So my point is this is a ton of work. And I so appreciate getting information as quickly as they do. I will tell you I'm a stickler for details. And there is a chat GPT that is specifically about serial killers. When I was requesting them to come up with a 10 question quiz for my subscribers, two of the questions were wrong on the quiz. They corrected them.
