Notes

  1. Definitions vary, but typically a person who kills multiple people in a short time in one place is called a mass murderer, while a person who kills multiple people in a short time in multiple locations without any cooling off period is called a spree killer. A serial killer is one who kills multiple people over an extended period of time with cooling off periods between the killings.
