“The New Year’s Gang, as with many self-styled revolutionary groups to emerge at the tail end of the turbulent ’60s, both foreign and domestic, from SLA to IRA, Black Panthers to Black September, was a mash up of ideological agendas and personalities commingled for the purpose of starting trouble.”

“Some serial killers take their disordered and inflated sense of superiority and complusion to create myths about themselves a step further, into a deliberate barbaric quest for celebrity status. This is arguably the characteristic that most separates serial killers from other offenders who kill under different circumstances or for different motives (discussed in the previous chapter.) The serial killer's reflexivity of action, or his autobiographical self-awareness as an ersatz public figure, suggest that fame and celebrity are two of the chief driving forces in his cliche-laden mind... The serial killer's sense of self-importance fits in with this bizarre demimonde created by cyberspace.”
