What should you do if you suspect that a co-worker is a serial killer from the late 70's?

Tell the police, but be sure to tell them you have no good reason for thinking so.  If it were me, I'd do some research first -- make sure the coworker good geographically have been the guy, is the right age, etc. I'd make sure it was at least possible before deciding my coworker had been a long lost serial killer.\n\nBut I wouldn't ask the guy to babysit.

Make a report to the police.  \n\nThis is very important because if you are to find out exactly who it is, you're going to need to confront them.  Unless you want them to get away with it.  You never know how that person might re-act.  The police will already have had a report and if you have evidence, such as a video tape it can make a strong case for you...\n\n\nAlso, once the police is reported, if they ever see anything suspicious around your home, they'll have this to gaurd the area.

That is tricky.  What kind of history do you have with the person?  Is the person known to be violent?  What is the context?  Sometimes you should ignore it and go on.  Sometimes you should take it very seriously and seek legal help.  If you genuinely fear for your safety, have a restraining order filed against the individual.  If the person has attempted to harm you, file charges with the police.  It helps if there are witnesses.  If you are at work, let your employer/supervisor know immediately.  If you are not provided a safe work environment, you can file a sexual harassment complaint.  I know, it's not sexual; but it falls under sexual harassment anyway.

1.  Confront the person, ask them to stop\n2.  Inform the supervisor\n3.  If the above don't work, try looking for a new job.

Honey, it's none of her business, really. If it was as violent as you say, and only close friends/family know what happened...I say you might want to keep it that way. This is a personal and tender issue that she needs to not be a part of. My best friend was murdered when I was a teen. Only her family and a few of us who hung out w/ her at school, knew the real details. We had to keep it quiet due to a gag order so we didn't compromise the case. You know, you could use this excuse as well. That way, you won't feel obligated to tell anyone anything because legally you can't. If after that she still won't respect your boundaries, talk to your supervisor about what you expect in the work place to feel safe and comfortable. You have the right to not be harassed in any way.

See if a local historian knows anything about it. They might know because, as I always say, "If there's on person interested in it then there must be another" since how the brain works and all that are very related and there are good possibilities that someone else has also heard of the case and would like more info just like you and it's probably the local historian.

From what I understand then yes she could be, I could go into the why's, the if's etc. but that wont help, if you have serious concerns about this person then contact the police, that is the best thing to do.

My advice is for you all to get together with your co-worker and hash this problem out. Ask your boss if you can take time off from work to have a meeting about this or sacrifice your lunch hour for it.\n\nIn my opinion, there is more going on here than you are aware of. This behaviour is typical of people who are using mephetamines, for example. Her boyfriend is either not taking his prescribed medications, or is using other types of drugs. You are very right to be concerned and my first thoughts here are three things: a. Get her out of your office (is there any stress leave available?) or b. Get him out of her life (and yours), or c. Get her out of his life. Set her up with a transistion house that helps women who are victims of spousal violence. Many of them offer help up to and including getting the woman out of state to protect her from a violent partner.\n\nOther possibilities include her talking to his parents or other family members to find out if he has a history of this sort of behaviour? Perhaps they could help her get him into a treatment program of some kind. Drug rehabilitation programs spring to mind here.\n\nYou can also contact your local police office and explain the problem. They can find out for you whether he has a history of prior convictions for violent acts. If he does and you inform your co-worker, it may be an eye-opener for her. If she decides to leave him, you could all kick in some money to help her get away. She won't be able to continue at the office because he can always find her there no matter where she lives. The police may also be able to offer more advice as to what all of you can do about this situation.\n\nIf you can't do any of this things, set up a safety drill for yourselves. Make sure you all know what to do if he turns up at your workplace in order to get out of there safely and contact help. Be on the alert for him at all times. You must take this very seriously. People who get in the way can wind up dead when someone like this goes on a rampage. He might very well decide to take a few people with him before he commits suicide.

Get video/photo evidence of the person stalking you. Then take it to the police. Then you can get a restraining order out on the person so they can't come near you.

A forensic pathologist or anthropologist, or a serial killer.

How do you know who the person is?  If your neighbor is sure about who it is, go to the cops again and INSIST for some action.  I'm not sure who you'd go to after that but maybe you could ask your state assemblyperson to help you (tell you where to go next).  You'd be suprised how helpful these people are.

I would immage they ALL had psychological disorders. After all, they're serial killers.

yes, they can. if they are in a different state the court may make you go to them. second ,,, evidence will be harder now for a person to prove. this is going to be a tough case and can go either way. if they seeked councel it may help their side (previously in the 12 yrs) also how old they are now may take a factor. if you are the victim don't worry the truth always comes out... there may be others just waiting for someone to stand up aswell. if you are the suspect... evidence lacking after 12 years is on your side

If he has suspicions, then he really needs to get the police involved. Even if they won't investigate right away, it will at least get them considering the possibility. If anything does happen to his grandmother, they would have cause to investigate.

First answer here is good, but I might disagree.  \n\nIs the co-worker going to be out some substantial money because of this?\n\nDoes the boss have the right under company policy to do what he is doing?\n\nThose are a couple of questions that come to mind right off the top.  You need to decide if you wish to continue to work for someone with these kinds of ethics.  If he's really doing something unethical to your co-worker, what makes you think he won't do it to you?  \n\nYou don't say, but is your business licensed by some government agency?  Is it possible that agency might just "happen" to stumble in for an inspection and be able to see what you're talking about?  Is it possible your co-worker can find out on their own in such a way that your boss wouldn't be able to assume it was coming from you?  \n\nWhat would your co-worker say or think about you if they found out you knew and did not tell them?  Is that important to you?  \n\nAny chance the client might call to speak with your co-worker about the file?  Would doing so alert your co-worker to the fact that the file had been "misplaced"?\n\nYou're in a tough spot.  Good luck with this.
