Hi everyone, I spent my first night back at LSU, and I was actually calm. I watched the safety session on channel nine the other night and it was helpful for teaching me how to defend myself if I were attacked.

Thanks for the link, juniorgrrl. Ya'll have probably read this article about the man who 4 days after Pace was murdered got into her house and looked around trying to find answers. He said he was trying to defend his family by knowing details that the police would not tell. (It was in that link) He got in through a window that was partially opened. Once again, I am SO impressed by the BR Police. I mean, come on, it was a kitchen window, I thought they would have checked things like that to secure the crime scene. (but I don't know all the details)

I have been keeping in touch with the man that I posted his email earlier and asked him a few questions about the recent attempted kidnappings. This is what he sent me...


I am trying to keep up with the case, but the police are keeping a pretty tight rein on the information.

While some killers do not change the location where they target victims, some serial killers do. For example, William Heirens in Chicago and Albert DeSalvo in Boston ALWAYS attacked their victims inside their homes, but Bundy did not. Bundy's first victim was abducted from her bed. Other victims were contacted on the street and beach. During his final days at large, he again returned to his old habit of attacking women indoors.

To attack a girl at a mall is much different that what he has done previously because there is a high risk that someone might get his license number or be able to recognize him. If he was the serial killer, it might mean that he was high on booze or drugs, or that he is psychologically disintegrating.

P.S.
Serial killers like to abduct victims and dispose of their bodies at places which are familiar to them. We call it their "Comfort Zone." Some killers do move frequently from place to place as they murder women to avoid apprehension and detection, but many of them remain in the same general geographical area for long periods of time while they continue to kill. Most of them enjoy the notoriety that they receive.

Oftentimes the need to kill is like a drug fix for them. The tension in their body builds until they kill ... then they are perfectly calm. This calm lasts for a time and then begins to build again. Like drug addicts who need more drugs to satisfy their habit, the time between the serial killings diminishes between each of the killings. EWKJ

I have also done some pretty stupid things at LSU as a freshman. I went jogging, with a friend, around the lakes last semester. I didn't realize that it was as late as it was or that it is really far around the entire trail, and it started to get dark. I had my mace and like I said, I was with a friend, but I still think that it was not a smart thing to do. Thank God nothing happened to us.

Today, I saw a girl jogging alone with headphones on. I was seriously thinking about stopping her and asking if she had been living under a rock for the past couple of months.

As usual, my posts are forever long......
