I did always assume with Zodiac that he eventually wanted everyone to know who he was because it would show how smart and great he was, and he would have set things up for that to somehow happen after he died, but the more time that passes the less likely I think that is.

That's what I was getting at. Zodiac was an egoist who toyed with the police because he thought it made him look smart and great. It's not the kind of personality that just suddenly stops feeding its own ego unless he outright died.

So was BTK. It's why he eventually got caught—he tried to start communicating again because he was unhappy about an anniversary story in the local paper or something. He asked the cops if he sent them a floppy if they could trace it back to him NO LYING YOU HAVE TO TELL ME and they said "Naw that's OK we can't do that" so he sent one and they immediately did.

ONS did apparently communicate with authorities some too.

Anyways, since those two were very public and very active and were caught fairly recently after having stopped killing altogether for so long I'm not so sure it can be taken as given anymore that serial killers kill until they die or are stopped.

Wait really, how does that work?

Sorry I corrected your bad choice of words, but don't act like I'm the fuckup here. Also I didn't say anything about the murders somehow being less bad because the victims were :airquote:only:airquote: shot with a gun and not hacked to pieces or whatever

doesn't actually seem like their choice of words was bad at all tbqh

I learned this fact ten years ago, and yet it still remains the funniest loving thing to me in all of true crime.
