Serial killer Genene Jones charged with more murders (possibly up to 60)

Yeah so I came across this disturbing news article where an ex nurse, Genene Jones, was charged for the murder of a 2 year old many years after the fact. That's sad in its own right. Except it gets crazier. She may have killed up to 60. She's already in prison ever since 1984 for another murder, but will be released in 2018. She won't be free for long though (not a second actually) as she will immediately be hit with new charges and a trial.

A former nurse in Texas was charged Wednesday in the 1981 murder of a 2-year-old girl.

Bexar County District Attorney Nico LaHood told ABC News Thursday that Genene Jones, 66, is suspected of killing as many as 60 children during her time as a nurse.

"We looked at her work schedule and when these babies were passing and the increase in passing under her direct work schedule was astronomical," said LaHood.

"Our focus is to hold Genene Jones accountable for as many children's deaths as our evidence will support," LaHood said in Wednesday's press conference. "For that reason, this will continue to be an open investigation."

The Green River Killer confessed to 71 murders, and is presumed to have killed dozens more.

The top three modern serial killers are all Colombian, taking advantage of the chaos there to kidnap and kill hundreds of children (perhaps as many as 800 between the 3 of them). American serial killers can't even compete.

That said, hopefully they'll be able to convict her of some of these newly linked murders - the world would be a better place without her running around free in it.

That has got to be a new record right? So fucked up.

Luis Garavito has killed 147 confirmed. And is suspected of 300+.

He will be released in 2021.

Pedro Lopez has 110 confirmed and 300+ is also suspected.

He is free,

South America....there's some shit you need to fix I think.

Well there was this crazy bitch from the olden times

Technically not confirmed, but...

and then in Japan there was a woman who killed over 100

Later she also attempted to garner payment for these murders. She and her husband Takeshi solicited large sums of money from the parents, claiming that it would be less than the actual expense of raising these unwanted children. A doctor, Shiro Nakayama, was also complicit in this scheme and aided the couple by falsifying death certificates. The Shinjuku ward office ignored their actions.

Holy shit, that's messed up.
