By "string" here, we mean one.

Not to imply the Zizians aren't embracing some dangerous ideas, but this is the strangest use of "string of killings" I've ever seen. Author could have gone with "wave of violence," but even then they'd be talking about a "wave" of three incidents in three years.






Four killings. The landlord in Villejo, Michelle Zajko's parents Richard and Rita in Pennsylvania, and now the border patrol agent in Vermont.

Ah, thank you. Developing story; I'd only heard of the two, and now we seem to be investigating six.

Six is a lot, but still a bit unclear whether we have a Manson Family situation or a One Serial Killer Who Read Too Much Nietzsche situation.
