Nadia Fezzani is a Canadian journalist who has conducted extensive research and interviews with many notorious American serial killers. As a specialist on serial killers, Ms. Fezzani gives conferences on the topic to university students and to different organizations. She also works with production companies on TV documentaries. She’s gotten into the minds of some of the most dangerous serial killers alive and learned to understand how they think. She has used this knowledge to provide helpful safety advice and tips on how you can avoid becoming a victim of a violent attack.

People tend to believe that people such as British Columbia serial killer, Robert Pickton, are of a rare species. Yet, in addition to approximately 40 serial killers already caught in Canada, many Canadian serial murderers run free.

In fact, 12 serial killers were notorious enough to be given nicknames without ever being found. They still live somewhere among us.

The Edmonton Prostitute Killer, the Canada Highway murderer, the Highway 16 Killer, the London Ontario Killer, the NW Territories Headhunter, The Ontario Lover’s Lane Killer, The Ottawa Teen Killer, The Toronto Hospital for Sick Children Murderer, the Toronto Prostitute Executioner, the Toronto Rape Slayer, the Montreal Boys Slasher and the Montreal Gay Ripper are all serial killers who were never caught.

Also, many homicides will never be linked together even if some of the murderers are captured. It is sometimes impossible to know if the crimes were committed by the same individual.

What can we do to avoid being victims of attackers? We all know the basic rules: lock your doors, do not talk to strangers, get an alarm system, have a guard dog at home and trust your instincts. Other less-known advice includes having deadbolt locks on all doors and avoiding wearing a pony tail at night. In addition, never bring God into a conversation when you face an attacker, as it will only enrage them. Fortunately for us, American serial killers today open up to give us tricks in their own words on how to better protect ourselves from others like them. Their advice is effective against any type of aggressor. Take their tips into consideration since they come from the experts and, ironically, usually relate to their own crimes.

The Happy Face Killer

Born in Canada, Keith Jesperson moved to Oregon at the age of 12. A trucker by profession, he would make his truck the prime location for his crimes. Although his first murder would end up being a fight that didn’t turn out well, he later acted violently whenever he faced a dilemma. He claimed that killing became too easy with time. When a couple was convicted for his first murder, Jesperson wrote to the authorities and the media to prove the guilty one was still free. He would sign his letters with a smile. What safety advice can be learned from him?

Safety Advice

At home, always keep your curtains pulled closed. Don’t let criminals see inside and determine what is worth taking, would it be property, assault, or your life. No free viewing! This safety advice can save your life!

Remove shrubbery and trees that allow people to stand by your home undetected.

Have lots of lights and invest in a security system. This is crucial safety advice.

Invest in the cam-over top and bottom bolts to secure your doors. Garage doors also need to be bolted so door openers cannot open them without the safety bolt disengaged.

Do not leave spare keys outside, under rocks, rugs or with anyone other than a neighbour you can trust.

Life Saving Advice from the Classified Ad Rapist

We will never know exactly how many women Robert Joe Long raped, but experts estimate the number is somewhere between 50 and 150. “Bobby Joe” retired from his X-ray technician job to become a classified ads professional. After exploring the newspaper’s items put up for sale, this father of two would visit the housewives selling their furniture when their husbands would likely be at work. He then threatened them with a knife, before binding them and raping them.

On a few occasions, daughters as young as 12 or 13 years old were victimized. After being caught one day, he decided he would never be arrested again. He moved on to coming out of the bushes, kidnapping girls from their bicycles or just by meeting strippers and prostitutes on drugs. He raped and murdered 10 identified women by beating, stabbing, strangling, asphyxiating and/or shooting them.

Security & Life Saving Advice

Be safe, be careful. Most importantly, be smart. Don’t put yourself in a dangerous situation, not even once. Listen to your “little voice”. Anytime it says, “Hey, this is not right!” RUN! Never let a male into your home or car, unless you know him well and you know you can trust him. Also, big and nasty dogs are always good bodyguards.

Personal Security Tips & Life Saving Advice From Serial Killers

People tend to believe that people such as British Columbia serial killer, Robert Pickton, are of a rare species. Yet, in addition to approximately 40 serial killers already caught in Canada, many Canadian serial murderers run free. In fact, 12 serial killers were notorious enough to be given nicknames without ever being found. They still live somewhere among us. The Edmonton Prostitute Killer, the Canada Highway murderer, the Highway 16 Killer, the London Ontario Killer, the NW Territories Headhunter, The Ontario Lover’s Lane Killer, The Ottawa Teen Killer, The Toronto Hospital for Sick Children Murderer, the Toronto Prostitute Executioner, the Toronto Rape Slayer, the Montreal Boys Slasher and the Montreal Gay Ripper are all serial killers who were never caught. Also, many homicides will never be linked together even if some of the murderers are captured. It is sometimes impossible to know if the crimes were committed by the same individual.

Personal Security Tips

What can we do to avoid being victims of attackers? We all know the basic rules: lock your doors, do not talk to strangers, get an alarm system, have a guard dog at home and trust your instincts. Other less-known advice includes having deadbolt locks on all doors and avoiding wearing a pony tail at night.

Fortunately for us, American serial killers today open up to give us tricks in their own words on how to better protect ourselves from others like them. Their advice is effective against any type of aggressor and important personal security tips. Take their tips into consideration since they come from the experts and, ironically, usually relate to their own crimes.

Joel The Ripper

A little bullied boy from kindergarten, always rejected, adopted Joel Rifkin was treated terribly during his entire childhood at school. His father then killed himself after being diagnosed with cancer, which put Joel into an even greater depression phase. Although he had two friends and a few girlfriends we can count on one hand, he was withdrawn into silence and developed a “social phobia”. Consequently, he turned to prostitutes for 17 years and became addicted, to a point where street workers were his main expenses. During his activities, he contracted herpes, gonorrhoea and was tested positive for hepatitis (he later on found out he did not actually contract hepatitis). He killed 17 of the prostitutes. He did so out of rage, out of vengeance and to keep them from dying miserably from drugs or diseases.

He even murdered to save husbands from contracting AIDS before going back to their wives. Today, he wants to start a foundation that would help “eliminate” prostitutes, by helping them to leave the streets and housing them after detoxication, so they can move on with their life.

Security Advice & Personal Security Tips

Street girls don’t have to be anywhere on a regular schedule, so if they are missing for a couple of days, no one really notices. When thinking of your own personal security tips, avoid being in that situation; tell people where you are going, who is accompanying you and when you’ll be back.

With Internet dating becoming increasingly popular today, if you’re going to meet someone for the first time, go with another person you trust. Your friend doesn’t have to sit with you; he or she can hang out in the background. This is another crucial personal security tips.

However, if you ever end up alone at some point and are in a situation where you feel you have to defend yourself, don’t go for the throat but rather kick or punch lower. This has a better effect: no matter how big the guy is, if you hit the right spot, he’s down!
