I just came across an interesting article titled 15 Chilling Stories of Unlikely Serial Killers. The killers on this list include an elderly landlady, a teenage babysitter, an aging farm couple (yes…the killers!), a pilot who transported Queen Elizabeth II and the Canadian Prime Minister, a children’s nurse, and even an entire middle class family (yes…the entire family, mother, father and children were killers). Serial killers have always existed and they will always exist. They are often very smart and charming which makes it hard to catch them. Is running a background check alone enough to catch the typical serial killer? Probably not. Nevertheless, serial killers are often caught when the due diligence of others reveal something out of the ordinary, and something as simple as a background check could potentially play a part in that. The bottom line is that it always helps to be diligent, especially when the safety of others is at stake.
