      Our “justice” system is too light on 19th-century serial killers.

      There’s statistics to back this up. Go ahead and look at the prison system. Not a single 19th century killer held in custody today.

      Looking back at historical incarceration rates there is a clear trend of locking up fewer and fewer 19th century criminals, until the numbers drop off altogether. This suggests a highly orchestrated plan to gradually reduce the population so at to avoid notice, and it worked. Here we are today without a single 19th century criminal incarcerated today. The data doesn’t lie. /s
