10 Serial Killers Who Were Caught By Accident

Sometimes the most dangerous predators aren’t caught by brilliant detective work, but by sheer dumb luck! Join us as we explore how history’s most notorious killers were captured through random traffic stops, plumbing problems, and their own stupidity. Our countdown includes Dahmer, Bundy, BTK and more! Which capture surprised you the most? Ed Kemper literally had to beg police to arrest him, while the Yorkshire Ripper was caught with stolen license plates. Dennis Nilsen’s plumbing betrayed him when human remains clogged his pipes, and BTK was undone by metadata on a floppy disk. Can you think of any other examples? Let us know in the comments below!
