Copycat killers

Sometimes, when a killer become highly mediatized, some retard with no personality seeing the amount of attention this killer receives will choose to copy them in order to receive the same attention. This is what we call a copycat killer. Depending on the amount of media attention a killer receives, they can have several copycats. Some copycats even had their own copycats. To count as a copycat, you must fulfill at least one of these conditions:

Citing the original killer as one of the main inspirations for your crime.
Replicating the same pattern as the original killer.

Show Your Dedication As A Fan, Copy Their Style And Bring them Even More Fame

Did You Know...

From Encyclopædia Dramatica's endless supply of factoids:

...that some stupid bitch got paid $6 Million Dollars because she claimed that she's addicted to and was traumatized by Instagram and Facebook?
...that Chuck Norris died? Get ready for a resurgance of Chuck Norris facts like how he's not really dead and is just taking a long nap.
...that it's St. Patrick's Day and 40% of the drunk driving deaths on this day will happen between midnight and 2:59 am?
...that some loser with too much money and not enough brains actually paid $14.6 million for a 1969 Fender Stratocaster that was played by Pink Floyd's David Gilmour?
...that The Seahawks Beat The Patriots 29-13 at this year's Superbowl? We're always happy to see The Patriots lose
... that boomer lawmakers are trying to ruin the internet with KOSA and other "bad internet bills" in the USA? You should tell them what you think, at badinternetbills.com!
... that another Valentine's Day has come and gone and you're still all alone? Are those voices in your head starting to become more persuasive?
