Phoenix in Fear of Two Serial Monsters

Frankenberry and Count Chocula?

#2  Don't forget how tight they both are with the Chamber of Commerce. Can't have anything revealed that would make Phoenix look anything less than spiffy. It might keep some corporation from moving in, goshdarnit, and there go the property values!

I don't think most of the victims (at least of the Baseline Rapist guy) have been white, though. He's just been too brazen and they can't ignore it for long. But Anonymoose is right....as long as they stay outta North Phoenix and don't bother the rich white people, they don't make too much noise about killers on the loose.

#1  Phoenix (sometimes pronounced Pee-nis), generally has something going on, but the police and local news are very careful to keep it under wraps.

For example, there is a kill zone west of town, a stretch of desert known for perhaps 25-35 bodies, all Hispanics killed execution style in the course of a year or two, then dumped there. Because drugs were most likely involved, they didn't treat the cases as if they were related.

Serial crimes are only publicized if they are middle class anglo. Too rich or poor or ethnic and they are ignored.

The most prolific serial criminals around here are burglars and indecent exposures.
