It was May 16th, 2025 when I got the call asking if this was Jason and I was asked to go to small house outside of Fayette. I’m a homicide detective for the state of Iowa. When we reached the crime scene it looked like a party, but not just a regular party, it was a party of massacre. There were five victims and one survivor. The victims had six slashes and six stabs to the heart. The slashes ranged from one to three inches deep into the flesh. He also carved a satanic star in the top of each victim’s head. All this shows that the killer is psychotic, that was abundantly clear, and more than likely very dangerous to the public. I have to stop whoever did this fast before he strikes again. As I was finishing up looking threw the house to make sure there was no more evidence in the house. The whole house was full of blood splatters all over the walls. We concluded that the murderer had some sort of relation with all the victims because of how brutal the attacks were on each one. Someone yelled, “Jason come here quick you might like what I found,” I went over and saw a mask thought of this odd and came to the conclusion that it was the killer’s mask. I also found a bloody suit he must have worn. After we all went outside I got a call from the hospital saying that the one survivor was out of surgery and waking up. I was asked to go down there and ask him what happened. I got there and saw that the witness was unable to talk because of the injury to the throat. I asked what his
The back door opened and a person donning a ski mask and a shotgun raced down the narrow hall of patient rooms in Dr. Larzelere’s office and shot him in the chest. A patient waiting in one of the rooms to see the doctor heard him say as he was being shot, “Jason, is that you”?. (McCoy, 2013, Frederick, 2009). The perpetrator then fled the scene. Virginia Larzelere called 911 and screamed for help saying her husband had been shot. The people in the office at the time were, a dental assistant, a patient, and Virginia, who was the office manager. The murder took place in the dental office in Edgewater, Florida, on March 8, 1991.
He told the boys to lie down on the grass and don’t move. I was still freaking out, screaming and not wanting to leave them, when my brother in law Jimi, came to get me and Anna. He gave me a big hug first, and then told us to walk about a block to their house. As we were leaving the ambulance came, and took Andrew and David to the hospital, with minor injuries. Later that day, they were released with only a few

Little kids everywhere have imagined what they will become as they grow up; a doctor, a musician, a teacher. As an eighth grader, I’ve been given the opportunity to look in-depth at what careers I should consider. Through surveys I’ve learned about my more prominent skills, which has led me to the discovery of paths I should take as I draw closer to high school. As I continue to see my results and take a deeper look at my possible plan for the future, I hope to learn more about myself, discovering a career choice I haven’t considered before, and end up with a better understanding of who I want to be.
Where do I see myself in four years? I see myself graduating with the Core 40 Technical Honors diploma. Also going to college to become a Crime Scene Investigator.

So for now my four year plan is to go to college and take the necessary classes to become a Crime Scene Investigator.
I searched mass murders, serial killers, and violent criminals who have been exposed to domestic violence in his or hers’ lifetime. However, I decided to choose a person who was simply a jealous ex boyfriend that decided to take the lives of eight innocent people. Many cases have made headlines within the year about mass shootings, but this particular case did not make headlines. It happened in Houston, Texas on August 8th, 2015. David Conley was once with Valerie Jackson after their relationship ended in the result of Conley smashing Jackson’s head into a refrigerator. Jackson then returned to her ex husband and restored their relationship for the sake of their six children together. Conley did not like the idea that Jackson returned to her ex husband, so Conley took matters in his own hands and broke into the Jackson’s residence opened fire on Jackson, her husband, and then their six children. (Jeltsen, 2015)
The minds and the inner workings of a serial killer have been analyzed, investigated, and pondered upon for many years. “Questions such as what makes his or her mind tick? Does he or she target one fitting victim? What are his or her motives?” are some of the most common that spring to mind. We all hold the power of being aggressive, of encompassing unthinkable and destructive thoughts of “torture, sadism and murder”, but we do not all become serial murderers (Knight, 21). This deviant behavior is often feared because it displays a small but troubled percentage of people who immerse in the torture and death of other
Throughout history, serial killers have sparked interest in the minds of many. Serial killers researched today are generally single people who murder for many different psychological reasons, still not fully understood. What happens when you get a group of four psychopaths in the same house, all with the same drive for murder, leads to a bloody trail of death. In the 1800’s, on a remote trail in Kansas, a so called ‘family’ started killing travelers. Working as a unit to execute their murders, these four ‘family’ members would continue their rampage from the same location, killing approximately 11 victims.
Just as I began asking if they were in any pain, a man yelled, “Hey! Are you guys okay? Do I need to call an ambulance?”
He struck again murder number 78, 87, or 780 nobody could keep track at this point, it is outrageous his genius murdering technique has the population dropping as if it were the weather in Mystic falls, he was a life robber. It is very melancholy and gloomy in Mystic Falls the skies are filled with Thor’s laughter; the town is crawling with neck twisters and upside down hangers.

His killing is done in silence, he is pure evil and a cruel monster that could not be stopped every day, every night this murderer is successful in his cruel ambition. Nobody knew why he killed religiously except for one person
But no answer. Walked to the back and there she was laying on the ground. For a second I thought of the worst scenario. Felt everything around me froze. Slowly walked up to her and checked her pulse to see if she was alive. Thank goodness she was just unconscious with some minor injuries.
Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy, and Jeffrey Dahmer all have something in common: they are all known for their infamous reign of terror. Each one of these men, along with a long list of others, falls under the category of “serial killer.” A serial killer can be defined as a person who has killed three or more people over a month’s time, and, most importantly, has a cooling off period in between each of the murders. The topic of these murderers has always been a phenomenon all over the country. From the subject of a kid’s scary story to a major part of the film industry, the American audience has a shared hunger for violence.
Serial killers. The plague of our existence, seem to be directly cultivated from the depths of our nightmares, both intriguing and terrifying. Hiding behind regular existences, serial killers often escape capture for years, decades and sometimes eternity. By understanding the motivation and the behaviours of serial offenders, critical knowledge is found in apprehending and convicting them. Over the past 150 years, there has been an immense fascination with serial homicides as noted by characters such as ‘Hannibal Lecter’, ‘Silence of the Lambs’ and ‘Halloween’ (Hickey, 2002). A “Serial killer” is defined as a person who commits more than one murder over a period of time according to the sixth edition of Crime and Criminality (Reid, 2007). Research
We all stood there in disbelief, just trying to comprehend what was going on. Even the employees looked terrified. On instinct, almost all of us dialed 9-1-1 instantly, because I’m sure none of us wanted to stand there and watch a man die, right in front of our eyes. My family and I were too scared to leave because we did not know how the injured man got the injury. Could it have been from another individual in a fight, who was still waiting outside? We were not willing to take any chances. We stayed there until the police and ambulance arrived to make sure it was safe to leave, but we never did find out what happened to the earless man. The police did say that the man received his injuries from an assault, but to this day that is still all I know about the situation. Sometimes I wonder if the man survived the incident, considering the last time I saw him, he was being hauled away by the
