Who did the Pope kill?
I thought he was a nonce?
1 million or more africans, every year, whoever the pope happens to be
He'll win a proper serial killers competition in a canter

I studied it a bit while in uni. My favourite cases was the police officer Gerard Schaefer (34 victims), the police friendly Edmund Kemper (10), the nice guy helping his nanny Jeffrey Dahmer (17), and the family father Gary Ridgway (49 victims) who was known as the Green River Killer before to be arrested after a 18 years investigation. I was interested by the ability of these people to hide to anybody included their family who they was really.
Now years have passed, chid and all that, i lost interest.

has to be the original--JACK the Ripper
ranks right up there---mutulated bodies-with knife an was never caught

Shipman for me
Not only amassed a double century score before being caught at slip, but a man of medicine to boot

Jack the Ripper, fascinating too, yes. The Victorian London and all that
@abolo.
What'd you mean Dahmer was a nice guy helping his nanny? I know his story, i dont recall that part

helping them die isnt exactly killing them
Who does that relate to?
I think for anyone to 'help' someone to die they have to have the patients consent.
The investigation into Shipman's practice began after relatives of Mrs. Grundy, a former mayoress and respected charity worker from Hyde, near Manchester, discovered that she had left nothing in her will to her two sons and her daughter. The will had been changed only 15 days before her death. Dr Shipman is charged with falsely obtaining cash and possessions from Mrs. Grundy's estate, the will had been altered in Shipman's favour, to the tune of £386,000.

never saw that---i thought he just added extra morphine to grannies
@ aman
In 1982, Dahmer moved with his grand mother Catherine, in Milwaukee, 57th street. His grand mother found him a job with the help of the local church! He's quickly fired and spend then 2 years to help his grand mother. He will find then a job in 1985. He will leave her house in 1988. He killed 4 men in this period, some in the house.
Reading again the story, he was not exactly a nice guy though. Heavy alcoholic and masturbating himself in front of children

xmoneyx - He wouldn't, if memory serves, discuss the murders too much but apparently he got a 'buzz' out of it
I don't think any of his victims realised that Dr Shipman's was not a healing touch

ah ok, didnt know that abolo.
cheers.
Yeah, he was ****ed. Necrophiliac and ate his victims.

Yes i always found funny the idea of serial killer living with his grand mother, mowing the lawn and caring her bags from the supermarket. But really, it isn't. Sick man. She complained from a strange smell coming from his room. Of course, there was a corpse there
yeah, that's the thing with 90% of them...they got that outward exterior to them as great guys.
bundy was a suicide helper and potential lawyer and so on.

Michael Sams...i know he only killed one (kidnapped another )...but i worked beside him for 2 years.
John Bunting the aussie killer. Been a film out called Snowtown detailing his shenanigans but I saw a drama/documentary about him and his pals on youtube before that, and boy he was one cruel, cruel tinker.
IIRC, he put u sparkler-firework up some victim's penis. It stung, i could yell by the amount of 'ouches' uttered.

King Richard the Lionheart. A score of over 3,000 at Acre.
Interesting thread this. Never thought I'd ever see Sutcliffe described as 'The Bearded Legend', and top the personal charts of one ChitChatter, but maybe I've lived a sheltered life.
It got me thinking though, in this media-savvy age where various public/notorious figures have 'brands' or 'images' to protect, it's a wonder that various criminals haven't tried to re-brand themselves with nicer nicknames.
There would certainly more than enough PR cretins willing to assist, eagerly assisted by chancer lawyers insisting that broadcasters refer to their client Sutcliffe as maybe 'The Bearded Wonder' as opposed to The Yorkshire Ripper.
Any more?

It's all the fault of the late 19th-century London newspapers who invented the nickname Jack the Ripper in these fake letters, it was more catchy than the previous "Withechapel murderer" and "Leather Apron" . They are the first to have made a business based on murder, but hey everybody needs to eat
I've been on the phone to a sad woman I know who works in PR.
She's looking forward to reprsenting her new dead client Sweeney Todd, to promote 'his exciting range of award-winning pies'.

Beat me to it Andy4Fingers.
He keeps popping up. Put paid to Michele Bachmann's chances of getting the Republican nomination when she went to Waterloo, Iowa and said how great it was to be John Wayne's hometown
.
Great song about him by Sufjan Stevens.

I'd grow a beard and kill people just to have that nickname.

ive gotta say, im loving ted bundy right now.

bundy was by far the most extreme case and the most intelligent imo
yeah eventually he did, but the amount he killed and the way he conducted his killings, means he was the most intelligent.
he killed nearly 50 or suttin...only change got him caught.

Do you think Bundy would kill as many now, with DNA been a powerful tool in "Intelligent People" Capture?
nah agree, things were different then.
to be a serial killer is much tougher now.
but still he deserves credit for what he did in said time.

Gilles De Rai, mate of Joan of Arc so one assumes a god-botherer, was a naughty lad.
Must be Fred West, shocking omission to date.
It's Christie I tell you!
He of 10 Rillington Place notoriety
Scorpio (from Dirty Harry) definitely deserves a mention.

I maintain that Harold 'Dr Death' Shipman with his huge score (200+) is the daddy of this sort of thing
1) He was a 4king doctor! The abuse of position & trust is unsurpassed
2) No-one knew he was doing it except him - hardly a publicity seeker ( I think this is a factor in driving some of them)
3) The quantity is incredible. I'm guessing he wasn't stopping until someone stopped him
4) Didn't explain or elaborate - although mentioned it gave him 'a buzz'

53 confirmed killing over 12 years and most importantly three (count 'em) nicknames.
Andrei Chikatilo - The Butcher of Rostov, The Red Ripper and The Rostov Ripper, a true giant of the game.

my fav?
Zodiac.
Took them on like they were nothing, bam.
And never got caught!

I will plump for an all ways tri-cast:
1) Jack the Ripper - The Whodunnit to end all whodunnits
2) The Zodiac Killer - Had the cops running round like headless chickens & his nickname is pretty good
3) John Wayne Gacy - The clown killer. Brutal but got away with it for a long time. Never liked or trusted clowns since I found out about this physco.
In the event of a Non Runner I will throw in the infamous Wests. As thick as pig sh1t but a Britolian accent that would somehow ease having a cup of tea with them.

For me, the fact Zodiac was so good in not getting caught...gives him no.1 place in this list.
Jeff Dahmer for me,any man that keeps a dead mans buttocks in the freezer to be defrosted occasionaly to be bummed will always get my vote!
Most are disapointing though and usually thick as mince and simply v lucky (and pre cctv days)
