    I must point out that contrary to popular belief, Charles Manson was NOT a serial killer. He is considered a “spree” killer, in that the crimes he commited were carried out in a very short period of time (7 victims in 2 days) as opposed to months or even years as is common with serial killers.

    Also they didnt cut Sharon Tates stomach open and stab her fetus. Susan Atkins wanted to do this, but she didnt have time to.

    John Wayne Gacy was hardly a prominent political figure – he was a fundraiser for the local branch of the Democrats, and president of hte local Jaycees chapter. Jeez, he was dressing as a clown to raise money at local events…. wouldn’t have bothered his local senator much, would it?

    What about Harold Shipman? A doctor who killed between 100 and 300 elderly patients with overdoses? That would be reasonably odd….
