The Countries With the Most Documented Serial Killers, Ranked

from The Secret of It All Hosted by Adidas Wilson

Research compiled by Radford University and Florida Gulf Cruis University tracking global murder statistics from 1900 to the present reveals that the United States accounts for the vast majority of identified serial killers worldwide. Experts suggest that the high American figures stem from advanced law enforcement tracking systems and accessible public archives rather than an inherently disproportionate amount of violent criminals. Following far behind the United States in global rankings are England in second place and Russia in third, both of which have recorded hundreds of notable multi-victim murder cases. Furthermore, experts note that the historical rise of American serial killers was heavily aided by the expansion of the interstate highway system, while modern technological advancements like DNA testing have ultimately hindered serial offenders and reduced overall rates.
