Female serial killers are a rarely studied phenomenon, according to Harrison, perhaps because of culturally ingrained notions that women would be incapable of such crimes. But this can be a deadly misconception.

In her study, [Marissa Harrison Penn State psychology professor] wrote that unwillingness to believe the idea of a woman serial killer may allow murderers to get away with their crimes — on average, female serial killers are able to evade arrest for twice as long as men are. Their victims pay for that extra time.

[Excerpt from: Sarah Kaplan, “The surprising but curiously logical differences between male and female serial killers.” Washington Post, Mar. 6, 2015]
