    I think that’s the definition of a serial killer. They just chose to incorrectly adopt it for mass shooting.

      Serial killer is several killings in a row with a change of venue. Mass murder is 4 or more in one place. I’ve actually taken a class on this.

        What if all serial killings are made on the same venue, but at different times? Is it a mass serial killing?
