I'm glad you liked this.
Dexter Morgan doesn't bring back the victims of serial killers by killing serial killers. The Terminator does. I imagine Skynet may have sent The Terminator back in time a few instances before the events of "The Terminator" movie to test the concept by having The Terminator kill known killers to see if the lives of their victims were saved before sending The Terminator to kill Sarah Connor.
