Talk:Anatoly Onoprienko

His father, Yuri Onoprienko, was decorated for bravery during the World War II

In the current version of this article it is stated: His father, Yuri Onoprienko, was decorated for bravery during the World War II. I don't see the relevance to his son... This article is not about his father and I am not sure how many people were decorated at the time.... at best the information could be made a footnote in the article... — Yulia Romero • Talk to me! 14:54, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

The background and ancestry of serial killers is of interest; profilers have identified many common characteristics among serial killers, with especially common experiences occurring during childhood. Andrei Chikatilo's father was instead branded "a traitor" in this very same war, which provides for an interesting juxtaposition between two contemporaneous serial killers from the same geographic area.

Source for how Onoprienko was captured?

The article states that Onoprienko was captured after he had moved in with a relative, his stash of weapons was discovered, he was kicked out of the house, and then later a massive manhunt took place resulting in his capture. There is no inline citation for this. Is there a source for this version of events?

I'm asking because there is a Biography Channel documentary on Onoprienko that tells a different story. It says he was apprehended after his neighbor reported seeing him concealing a shotgun as he left his apartment. Onoprienko was sharing the apartment with his girlfriend, who said he was a very nice kind man to her and her child. The police investigated and found items stolen from the victims, as well as maps and other evidence relating to the murders, in the apartment. Preumably Biography Channel is a reliable source, so it seems like the information in the article is at best incomplete.TheBlinkster (talk) 14:25, 16 June 2015 (UTC)
