    The reason why almost all the houses in New Orleans had and axe and why you would not throw it away is because you keep an axe so that during hurricane season you could chop through your attic and get on your roof if the city flooded
    This is an old New Orleans family thing that has been lost over time, thus the deaths of people IN their attics during Katrina, the old ways lost or not known to the transplants

      @Sky Gardener I loved that book! And I have to admit, it has me at least half-convinced that most of the murders written about in the most detail, especially the Villisca murders, were all committed by the same guy, and the MO sounds solid. The author says right out which of the killings are most likely linked, and has good logic that fits the evidence. I'm even intrigued by the Hinterkaifek speculation, though I'm not sold on it.
      I agree, this guy wasn't the brightest bulb, and nowhere near as clever and crafty as the semi-hypothetical Train Man. Definitely had mental health problems, and the odds with serial killers say that he likely had a problem with alcohol, too. And although this old profiling truism doesn't usually apply as much as it did in the past, it did give me an idea, since this is a very old crime - serial killers historically used to tend to prey on victims from their own ethnic groups. Perhaps the Axeman was Italian?

    It is interesting how the Axeman presumably entered through the removed panels in doors, yet was described as a heavyset, larger man.

    I have a theory he could’ve been a soldier. There were a spree of unsolved axe murders before World War 1. What if he got drafted and got dishonorably discharged due to his violent tendencies and continued his murder spree. This could explain him being able to move around the houses sneakily and how he would fit through the door board. Because he was trained to do it. He could’ve even been responsible for the Villisca Axe Murders since a lot lines up with those murders and the Axeman killings.

    You know, side note pertaining to the circus: the axeman has been sneaking into the houses of the victims through very small holes which is odd because people keep saying that the perp was a very large man. So maybe look into the performers at that circus and focus on the contortionist. If I had to build a criminal profile for the axeman, it would be this:
    Large white man
    Has the abilities of a contortionist
    Eloquent writer
    Racist to Italians
    Has a lot of odd habits
    Owns a slouch hat
    Likes jazz
    Has a 50% success rate
    Kills grocers who live on corners
    Always leaves the weapon
    Strikes under the cover of night
    Member of the circus?

    This man had a horrible ratio for his kills. 1 kill for every 2 attacks? That’s pathetic. Step up your game, man.
