True Crime Writer: IS SERIAL KILLER STEVE WRIGHT INNOCENT? March 2013

The murders of five prostitutes by the Suffolk Strangler in 2006 set off one of the largest manhunts in British history. DNA evidence led to the arrest and conviction of a man who admitted he had sex with four of the five dead women, but was he the actual serial killer? What about the driver of the blue BMW which was hardly mentioned in court? Is the real Suffolk Strangler still on the loose?

TRUE CRIME WRITER: Profile of the LONG ISLAND SERIAL KILLER - January 2012 by Siobhan Pat Mulcahy

In the Long Island Serial Killer case, New York police have only identified 5 of the 10 victims. They believe all the women and the man dressed in women's clothing had worked as prostitutes and that the baby belonged to one of the women. Forensic testing of the victims' remains has revealed that some of the murders may have taken place as far back as 1996.
Using the results from the comparisons between 5 modern day serial killers (now in jail) and recent police and newspaper reports concerning the Long Island murders, it is possible to create a detailed profile of the killer who has yet to be caught.
