FBI estimation says that there are at least about 40 serial killers active in the US. According to the FBI Behavioral Analysis Unit 85% of the world's serial killers are located in America. I read once that the FBI estimates the US has 100 active serial killers at any given point in time. Russia is the next biggest place for serial killers. Some countries have none at all. No one knows why America and Russia are so over run with them.
Serial killers usually have a 'type', and most usually go after prostitutes because they're the easiest target to prey on, seeing how most don't have families or friends asking about them, so when they vanish there wouldn't be a surge of missing persons reports. That's only one kind of serial killer. There are organized types who plan their crimes and go after specific kinds of victims, and there is the disorganized type that kills seemingly at random and without significant planning. Places like south America and Asia still maintain small closed communities that are very much involved with each others lives. If anything, they're a lot safer than the urbanized populations like New York or LA where city life as forced people into a sort of alienated existence divorced from the greater community. We have a serial killer in the NYC area. They keep finding groups of bodies in the Long Island area every now and then.
That's why we need to regulate prostitution; too many girls are going missing without anybody knowing about it.
