Whites have never been overrepresented among serial killers. The decade with the highest percentage of white serial killers was in the 1920s: Whites were 78 percent of mass murderers even when they were 90 percent of the population. The 1920s also saw blacks account for the lowest percentage of serial killers at 18 percent. At that time they were about 10 percent of the population.

Serial Killer Statistics
The tables in this report are based on information from the Radford University/FGCU
Serial Killer Database. The purpose of the database is to gather data so that researchers
and teachers will have accurate information about serial killers. In 2012, Radford
University partnered with Florida Gulf Coast University to ensure that the database is
continually updated and that summary reports will be made available on an annual basis.
As of September 4, 2016, the database contains information on 4,743 serial killers and
13,105 victims1
of serial killers. The statistics in this report are based on the serial killer
definition derived by the FBI at its 2005 symposium in San Antonio, TX2
: The unlawful
killing of two or more victims by the same offender(s), in separate events.
