rdfs:comment
  • Modus operandi (approximately translated from latin as "method of operation"; often shortened in English as M.O.) is a term which extensively used in the context of criminal investigations to refer to a number of personal habits of a criminal (including rapists and killers), which form recognizable pattern each time he commits a crime. Dexter's modus operandi served not only to maximize the satisfaction he derives from his victims as all serial murderers do, but to minimize (if not eliminate) any forensic clues and evidence, and to ensure that he did not target innocents.

abstract
  • Modus operandi (approximately translated from latin as "method of operation"; often shortened in English as M.O.) is a term which extensively used in the context of criminal investigations to refer to a number of personal habits of a criminal (including rapists and killers), which form recognizable pattern each time he commits a crime. While serial killers often have recognizable M.O. which only differs slightly from time to time, often serial killer has at least one victim (usually the first one) killed in a significantly different manner, as his preferred modus operandi forms over time. In cases of major serial killers with victims numbering more than 50, a number of out-of-pattern victims may be larger due to different circumstances. Dexter's modus operandi served not only to maximize the satisfaction he derives from his victims as all serial murderers do, but to minimize (if not eliminate) any forensic clues and evidence, and to ensure that he did not target innocents.
