It is different from previous cases in that so many victims have been killed in so few days. Read in USA Today the difference between serial killers and spree killers is that serial killers target their victims and they have something in common - i.e., target all women, or all blonds, etc. Spree killers will kill anyone for the thrill. Guess that means this is either a thrill killer or somene with an agenda to send a message to America.

It's not a cross country spree, killing for the helluva it or a serial killer like Ted Bundy.

He may be trying to send a message like the Unabomber, but the message is only known to him, a product of his malevolently twisted mind.
