"No Nightmares And No Remorse" For Home Invasion Killer
The Connecticut killer who once called himself one of the most hated men in America said in a death row interview that he tries not to think about the murder of a suburban mother and her two daughters, suffers no nightmares and has nothing to say to the only survivor of the brutal 2007 attack.
Joshua Komisarjevsky told The Associated Press in his first interview since he was convicted that there isn't anything he could say to Dr. William Petit 'that will restore the lives lost'.
He also declined an opportunity to express remorse for the killings. 'I guess my reaction is not the reaction society expected,' Komisarjevsky said.
RCMP didn't see Pickton as serial killer, allowed file to lay dormant for months
VANCOUVER - The Mounties who were investigating Robert Pickton allowed the case to lay dormant for months at a time and didn't know they were dealing with a possible serial killer, several officers with the force told a public inquiry Monday.
The inquiry has heard allegations the RCMP in Port Coquitlam, where Pickton's farm was located, failed to realize they were investigating a multiple murderer and allowed their case to sit inactive for weeks and months at a time when officers in Vancouver considered Pickton their top suspect in the disappearance of Downtown Eastside sex workers.
Retired officer Ruth Chapman, then a constable, took over the RCMP's Pickton investigation in late August of 1999. The force was looking into a tip received by Vancouver police that Pickton had murdered a sex worker on his farm.
Cell phone locator shows alleged serial killer Elias Abuelazam was in the area of Arnold Minor slaying
FLINT, MI -- Suspected serial slasher Elias Abuelazam's cell phone was tied to a tower 0.6-of-a-mile away from where Arnold Minor's body was found at the time of the homicide, according to testimony on Tuesday morning.
His phone also was located in the area of towers near other stabbings and slayings at the time of those incidences, testified Michigan State Police Trooper Paul Gonyeau, who specializes in cell phone tracking.
The records showed Abuelazam made three calls between 1 a.m. and 3 a.m. on Aug. 2, 2010. The second call started at 2:15 a.m. and was located 6/10 of a mile away from where Minor's body was found on Saginaw Street near 12th Street, Gonyeau said. The calls were able to be tracked via cell phone towers and GPS locaters.
Bremerton's person of interest under surveillance | Case against 'serial killer' still too thin for charges
Police are unwilling to confirm the identity of the "person of interest" in the Bremerton serial killer case, but some new details about the investigation have emerged in recent weeks.
Bremerton police released a pair of sketches of the person of interest following the Feb. 3 murder of Melody Brannon, 61, outside of her High Avenue Home. The man in the sketch was interviewed by police, but they have not moved to make an arrest while they continue to work on building a case against him for Brannon's murder along with the May 3, 2011 murder of Sara Burke and the June 20 knife attack of a man that survived.
Bremerton Mayor Patty Lent recently confirmed that the man is now under round-the-clock surveillance by police. But, Lent said, investigators do not yet have enough direct evidence to make an arrest or see to the successful murder prosecution in court.
ALLEGED serial rapist and murderer John Mohorosi had co-operated with the police and appeared relaxed when he was arrested last year. The Bloemfontein High Court heard yesterday that Mohorosi was also willing to reveal "other things" to the police soon after his arrest.
Mohorosi is facing several charges of murder, rape and robbery.
Captain Paseka Mojaki told the court he was part of the team investigating the disappearance of women in Free State.

14 Years in an Unmarked Grave, and Finally a Break in the Case
To find Marleny Cruz, one must start 28 feet away, at a guidepost in the back of Block 21 at Forest Green Park Cemetery in Morganville, N.J. That is Row A of graves. Each grave is seven feet long, head to foot. You move forward, counting the rows. In D, according to a brass plaque, lies a beloved husband, father and grandfather. In Row F, a beloved mother.
Between them, in Row E, six feet beneath a patch of grass with no marker, lies Marleny. The strangers who arranged for her burial here, on May 26, 1998, did not buy a plaque. What would it have said? It had been three months since her 14-year-old body was found, bruised and strangled and sexually abused, on a Bronx curb, and she still had not been identified.
She did not fall through the cracks — she was born there. Marleny grew up in the Dominican Republic with a mother who would be killed in a fight over drugs. Marleny moved to New Jersey to live with her father, whom she later accused of abusing her. She bounced around foster homes, sometimes staying just a couple of days before running away.
Victims who survived attacks testify in trial of accused serial killer Elias Abuelazam
FLINT, MI -- Three victims testified on Friday that suspected serial killer Elias Abuelazam asked them for help with his vehicle or asked them for directions before stabbing them in the summer months of 2010.
"He was right behind me with his arm around my neck and stuck a knife in my gut," said Thomas Booker, who was attacked on July 19 on Saginaw Street and Juliah in Genesee Township. "He tried to kill me."
Abuelazam, a 35-year-old from Israel, is charged in the Aug. 2, 2010, death of Arnold Minor on Saginaw Street near 12th Street. He is accused of a summer-long series of attacks that killed five people and injured nine others.
