Often I am asked if there is any such thing as a female serial killer.

We struggle to understand how any mother could kill her own children.

Serial killing is not about sex at all, but about power and control and revenge on society.

Society certainly encourages women to be victims in every way.

Murder is about power and the more powerful women get the more it will change the good that they do and the bad that they do.

We assume people we know can't be serial killers.

Every woman who thinks she is the only victim of violence has to know that there are many more.

I read a lot about serial killers.

In times of conflict, war, poverty or religious fundamentalism, women and children are the first and most numerous victims. Women need all their courage today.

Nowadays, with much more racial and ethnic mixing, we are seeing serial killers murdering a variety of victims; whoever comes along will most likely do.
