for that, Blood. I guess my MAIN point is that the fact that the majority of the victims are white would tend to suggest that the killer is white, which is prob the same logic the police are using. I'm guessing the only reason they released ANY specific profile was so anyone with suspicions about a possible perp. might come forth.
It's a dangerous life at the best of times, so any working ho's need to be pretty street smart and cautious at all times, so I doubt that was too much of a consideration when releasing the profile either (right or wrong).
As you said, profiling IS an inexact science, so I don't think it should be used so much as a BASE for any investigation, more as just a (possibly) useful tool. Too much reliance on it could lead to "tunnel vision", which is never a good thing in these cases.
Thanks for the debate tho - very interesting case!
