He quickly began accumulating information on who the dealers were and how they operated, as well as a duffel bag full of what he refers to as “a smorgasbord of everything that I needed from serial killers” — including pieces of clothing to artwork, letters, autographs, deodorant, hair, and fingernail clippings.
