“He is the ultimate hunter and predator,” Mr. Kelly said. “This guy has been able to pick these girls that physically, in their looks, fit his fantasy and has been able to hunt them perfectly so far, because he hasn’t been caught.”

Expert blames serial killer
‘Main South Woodsman’ preying on prostitutes

This serial killer doesn’t feel guilt or remorse, but like other serial killers, they feel extreme fear and terror when a body is found.John Kelly,,
PROFILER AND PRESIDENT OF THE NEW JERSEY-BASED SYSTEM TO APPREHEND LETHAL KILLERS
Detectives investigating the deaths of five prostitutes from the Main South section of Worcester have never come out and said a serial killer is on the loose and preying on these women, although they have not ruled out that theory.
But while police seem reluctant to use the term “serial killer,” at least one national expert on such crimes is not so reticent. John Kelly, profiler and president of the New Jersey-based System to Apprehend Lethal Killers, or STALK, is convinced there is a serial killer in the region and the man is comfortable in wooded environments.
The best way to find the killer, Mr. Kelly contends, is to create a formal, multi-agency task force such as the one formed to catch the Green River Killer in Seattle a few years ago. That task force consisted of detectives and investigators from local, county, state and federal law enforcement agencies led by Frank Adamson, chief of criminal investigations in the King County sheriff’s office in Seattle.
Mr. Adamson, who has since teamed up with Mr. Kelly at STALK, said significant resources need to be made available for these kinds of cases. A task force should be formed despite costs because the devastation and victimization outweigh the costs and outweigh the politics that may be involved, he said in an interview after the discovery of the first three women’s bodies.
The group working on the murders of the five women, who were all known to work as prostitutes in the Main South neighborhood of Worcester, is much more loosely connected and less extensive than the Green River task force. Investigators from several police departments and agencies are sharing information in what they term an extremely active probe triggered by the discovery of skeletal remains of 34-year-old Lineida Olivera of Worcester last week in state-owned land abutting Rutland State Forest.
