Pfft. I was saying the same thing two years ago, back when they were sitting on their thumbs wondering if the cases might be related somehow.
For the record, it isn't me. I have nothing against prostitutes, or women in general, and am far too busy to moonlight as a serial killer.
A final note: it seems to me that if a serial killer was out there snuffing prostitutes, the safest thing for prostitutes to do in order to avoid this is to not be prostitutes anymore. I mean, if there was a maniac out there killing landlords, you can bet your ass I'd find a new line of work.
Yeah, I mean, if they didn't want to be prostitutes, they could just instantly find some other line of work, and they wouldn't have any risk of starving or being homeless because, after all, the only reason ANYONE ever becomes a prositute is because it's a glamourous and exciting career option.
It doesn't matter why they became prostitutes in the first place, and if it were a glamorous and exciting career option, that wouldn't matter either.
A serial killer is murdering Edmonton prostitutes and dumping them in a field. If you're an Edmonton prostitute, you have two options if you don't want to be murdered and dumped in a field:
1) Don't be a prostitute anymore. You might be homeless for awhile, but in a city, there are homeless shelters, soup kitchens, social programs, government allowances, and a number of other things you can do to keep from starving -- all of which are ridiculously easy to get in this town.
2) Don't turn tricks in Edmonton anymore. If you work as a prostitute for two days, you should be able to scrape together enough money to take a bus to Calgary, Vancouver, Regina, or any of the other cities that are ideal for a working girl who doesn't like prostitute-slashing murderers.
