Famous murderers

The psychological aspect of these crimes is often what grabs my interest most. What can go so wrong to tip somebody across these unforgivable barriers? There's a lot of criminal psychology channels on YouTube now, used to enjoy JCS and Explore With Us isn't bad either.

I remember reading Howard Sounes' book on Fred West years ago, probably the most comprehensive works on the Wests.

I have a tough pallet. The one famous murderer that really got under my skin was Jeffrey Dahmer.
 
These lists are always the same, most famous but never the worst. The serial killer with the highest amount of victims is actually from Columbia, Luis Garavito he's called. He has 100+ proven victims but the real number could be 300+. Obviously Harold Shipman tops this with over 200 proven, but because he's a medical professional and allowed to murder in plain site he is usually in a list of his own.
There's actually no Americans in the top 10 when it comes to victims surprisingly , they are all from South America and Asia

Pol Pot not on list either, but I suppose the list is targeted to modern day serial killers not dictators/ war lords/ war criminals as they did their killing via others
