Booker prize winning author Douglas Stuart discusses his new novel John of John.

Travels With the Dark: Stories from humans in the “Limit-Experience” is our series concerning real occurrences of human beings when they are brought into or more aptly, up against “limit-experience”, a phrase from French and German philosophers that attempts to describe in the most general way what human beings undergo when they are thrust into situations that push them to their limits and conditions of maximum intensity. While originally this was intended to be a series in the “True Crime” genre  I wondered to myself if subject and theme could extended outward. It might not even only encompass the most negative aspect of human experience.I think the genesis of this two part topic was probably my first viewing of the David Fincher series Mindhunter which is a dramatization and representation of the work of Ann Burgess and John Douglas as they tried to investigate and comprehend the phenomenon of serial killers in our society. This lead me to decide to do an episode on serial murder itself.The preparation for these episodes was for me immense, perhaps greater than any episode I have created on this podcast. It involved multiple sources and books and many cases often of a most unpleasant nature and involved reintroduction to some rather famous cases like Ted Bundy, Rodney Alcala and John Wayne Gacey. Sometimes episodes on our podcast are the invention of others and I think our producer Laurie Strickland was the person who brought up this particular idea. Serial crime is such an outsized topic: for example in one relatively small country alone, France, the discussion of the crimes there comprised an entire episode.In this episode, Mitch and Deb head across the Atlantic and into some of the darkest corners of serial-killer history to unpack three cases that, outside of France and Belgium, rarely get the attention they warrant. Drawing on more than a decade of living in France and going down the rabbit hole of its true-crime archives, Deb brings a perspective shaped by immersion— the kind that only comes from reading between the lines of a country's own media, myths, and collective memory.Starting with Henri Landru, France's very own Bluebeard, a polite, almost forgettable man who turned lonely wartime classifieds into a hunting ground, Mitch and Deb dig into how scarcity, social upheaval, and the chaos of World War I created the perfect backdrop for a predator who didn't look like one, and how Landru managed to make women disappear so thoroughly that even now, the details feel more like rumor than record.From there, things take an even darker turn with Marc Dutroux, a case that still haunts Belgium and shook public trust to its core. Deb and Mitch walk through some of the systemic failures that allowed Dutroux's unimaginable crimes to go on for so long. Finally, they dive into Guy Georges, the Beast of the Bastille, whose reign of terror in 1990s Paris exposed both the limits of early forensic policing and the danger of underestimating someone hiding in plain sight. They discuss how Georges evaded capture for years, the role of emerging DNA technology in finally stopping him, and how fear rippled through a city most often associated with romance, glamour, and dreams. As always, Mitch and Deb go beyond the headlines and into the psychology, the social context, and the uncomfortable truths that lie just beneath the surface. These aren't just stories about killers. They're about the environments that shape them, the blind spots that protect them, and the uneasy realization that evil doesn't always look the way we expect.For Deb and Mitch, true crime isn't about spectacle. It's about understanding how people slip through cracks, how systems fail, and how, if you look closely enough, the warning signs are almost always there from the start.#truecrime #travelswiththedark #aesthetics

Who was Rex Heuermann — really? His ex-wife says he was the one person she could count on. His daughter says he was a loving father who never let his two worlds cross. The FBI's John Douglas says he's a malignant narcissistic sadistic psychopathic serial killer who almost certainly has more victims than the eight he's admitted to. They're all right. And that's what makes this case unlike anything else in modern true crime. The Peacock documentary stripped away the courtroom formality and the legal maneuvering and showed us the raw reality of what happens inside a serial killer's family when the truth finally surfaces. Asa Ellerup learned that women were murdered and dismembered in her basement — then moved back into that basement and started sleeping in the kill room. Victoria Heuermann listed the ages she was when each victim was killed, learned her father never thought about her during the murders, and forgave him on the spot. And Rex, in therapy sessions captured by the documentary, described a four-day kill cycle, admitted to timing his body dumps with a stopwatch, and revealed that sex and violence merged in his mind during adolescence and never separated. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins me for an expansive three-part conversation covering every psychological dimension of this family — from Asa's constructed reality to Victoria's impossible reckoning to Rex's mind itself. If you've been following the Gilgo Beach case and you want to understand what the documentary actually means — not just what happened, but why — this series is where you need to start.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Three perspectives. One serial killer. And a family that will never be the same. The Peacock documentary on Rex Heuermann gave us access that no trial, no courtroom, no press conference ever could have — the private moments when a wife and a daughter learned the full scope of what the man they loved had done. Asa Ellerup's story is one of a woman whose entire life before Rex was defined by trauma — adopted, assaulted, suicidal — and whose entire life with Rex was defined by a reality he constructed for her. The therapist who worked with their family said for Asa, it wasn't denial. It was real. Whatever Rex said became truth. That's not complicity. That's something far more psychologically complex. Victoria Heuermann's story is one of identity destruction — a young woman who mapped her childhood ages against her father's kill timeline, who learned that women were murdered and dismembered ten feet from where she played as a child, and who forgave her father almost immediately because she said she can't move forward unless she does. And Rex's story — told through therapy sessions, jailhouse calls, and the assessment of FBI profiler John Douglas — is the story of a man who built a four-day ritual around murder, who timed his body dumps to the second, and who may still be hiding victims behind a carefully managed confession. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins me for a three-part series that goes deeper into the psychology of this case than anything else out there. No shortcuts. No surface-level takes. The full picture.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Rex Heuermann killed women in the same room where he grew up. The same room where he went through puberty. The same room where, according to the FBI's John Douglas, the violent fantasies that would eventually consume him first took root. He never left that room — not psychologically, not physically. He converted his childhood bedroom into a space his own wife was forbidden to enter, filled it with his childhood belongings, and used it to carry out the most brutal acts imaginable over the course of nearly two decades. That overlap is not a coincidence. The Peacock documentary gave us unprecedented access to what was happening inside Rex Heuermann's mind — through the therapist who sat with him for months inside the jail, through his own words, and through the assessment of John Douglas, the criminal profiler who literally invented the FBI's behavioral analysis of serial killers. Rex described dark thoughts beginning in high school. He consumed books about death and mutilation. Sex and violence merged in his mind during adolescence and never separated. He said he couldn't put the brakes on it — that one thought fed another fed another, deeper and darker until it consumed him. He said his outlet was to kill. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins me to analyze everything the documentary exposed about Rex Heuermann's psychology — the significance of the kill room being his childhood bedroom, what the ritualized four-day cycle reveals about what was actually driving him, and whether the man who says he can't connect himself to the crime scene photos is experiencing genuine dissociation or performing control for one more audience.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Rex Heuermann sits in his cell at Suffolk County Correctional Facility and looks at crime scene photos of the eight women he killed. He studies the dump sites. He looks at what was done to the bodies. And then he says something that should make every person following this case sit up straight — he says he can't connect the person who did those things to himself. He tries. He looks at the photos and tries to bridge the gap between the man who dismembered women in his basement and the man sitting in the cell. And he says he can't do it. The two worlds don't merge. That claim — coming from a man who timed his body dumps with a stopwatch, who built a four-day ritual around each killing, who got his disposal time down from two minutes to thirty-seven seconds — raises a question that sits at the center of this entire case. Is he telling the truth? Is Rex Heuermann genuinely unable to connect his two selves? Or is this one more performance from a man who John Douglas called a malignant narcissistic sadistic psychopath — a man whose narcissism is so total that even in confession, he's still curating how the world sees him? The documentary also revealed that Rex agreed to cooperate with the FBI's behavioral analysis unit as part of his plea deal. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins me to examine what the documentary exposed about Rex Heuermann's mind — whether his claimed dissociation is real, what the ritualized killing pattern reveals about his psychology, and whether cooperation with the FBI is a sign of genuine self-examination or another form of narcissistic control from behind bars.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Peacock documentary did something that nothing else in this case has been able to do — it showed us the human wreckage inside Rex Heuermann's own home. Not the crime scenes. Not the evidence. The people. Asa Ellerup, the ex-wife who heard her husband confess to eight murders and still believes he loved her. Victoria Heuermann, the daughter who asked her father if he ever thought about her while killing women in their basement and was told no. And Rex himself — the man who described a meticulous four-day kill cycle, who timed body dumps with a stopwatch, who told a therapist he can't connect the person in the crime scene photos to himself, and who John Douglas says is almost certainly hiding more victims. Each of these three people is processing the same truth from a completely different psychological position. Asa can't let go. Victoria is trying to forgive. And Rex is still performing — still curating, still controlling how the world receives his story. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins me for a three-part interview series that goes inside each of these minds. Part one covers Asa — the trauma history, the constructed reality, the impossible attachment. Part two covers Victoria — the identity destruction, the rewritten memories, the cost of forgiveness. Part three covers Rex — the adolescent origins, the ritualized killing, and whether his cooperation with the FBI is insight or narcissism. This series is the most thorough psychological examination of the Heuermann family in true crime.

John Douglas looked at the full picture of Rex Heuermann — the four-day kill cycle, the stopwatch-timed body dumps, the kill room in his childhood bedroom, the planning document that referenced Douglas's own book — and delivered an assessment that should keep investigators working this case for years. He said Rex is a malignant narcissistic sadistic psychopathic serial killer. He said he doesn't believe Rex started killing at thirty. And he raised the specter of death penalty exposure in states like South Carolina, where Rex owned property and where investigators have been looking at missing persons cases that could be connected. Douglas compared Rex to Dennis Rader — BTK — and said something striking. He said Rader would be jealous of Rex. Because Rader had the fantasy of keeping a victim in a room, of having total control in a contained space. But Rader never had the room. Rex did. Rex had the space, the privacy, the time when his family was out of state, and the methodical precision to carry out every element of the fantasy that most serial killers only imagine. The documentary also revealed that Rex told his daughter the planning document was created as a way to try to curb the urge — that if he put it on paper, maybe he wouldn't need to act it out. That claim doesn't hold up against the timeline. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins me to analyze the full psychological profile of Rex Heuermann as revealed by the documentary and Douglas's assessment — the gap between confession and truth, the narcissism that's still operating even after the plea, and whether Rex Heuermann will ever stop controlling this narrative.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Rex Heuermann set the terms of his own confession. Before he stood in a Suffolk County courtroom and pleaded guilty to murdering eight women, he arranged private jailhouse meetings with his ex-wife and his daughter. He chose the order. He chose the setting. He decided what they would hear and how they would hear it. Even in the act of admitting to being the Gilgo Beach serial killer, Rex was orchestrating the experience. The Peacock documentary captured what happened in the aftermath of those meetings — Asa Ellerup walking out and saying she believes Rex loved her, Victoria Heuermann forgiving her father almost immediately, and both women returning to the house where seven of the eight murders were committed. It also captured something the public has never seen — extended therapy sessions where Rex described the mechanics of his killing in clinical detail. The four-day cycle. The stopwatch-timed body dumps. The childhood bedroom converted to a kill room. The claim that he can't connect the person in the crime scene photos to himself. And alongside it, John Douglas's assessment that Rex is a malignant narcissistic sadistic psychopath who likely has hidden victims in states where he faces death penalty exposure. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins me for a comprehensive three-part series analyzing every person at the center of this case. Asa's psychology. Victoria's reckoning. Rex's mind. No angles left unexamined. This is the definitive psychological breakdown of the Heuermann family — and of the documentary that exposed them to the world.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

A deleted file recovered from Rex Heuermann's basement allegedly contains the Long Island Serial Killer's step-by-step methodology. According to prosecutors, eighty-seven details match how the Gilgo Beach victims were killed.The document—titled HK2002-04—was found on one of fifty-eight hard drives seized from the Massapequa Park home. Created in 2000 and modified through 2002, it allegedly contained sections for supplies, body preparation, and "lessons learned."According to court documents: A "Supplies" section allegedly listed cutting tools, acid, tarps, and cat litter. A "Body Prep" section allegedly stated: "remove head and hands, remove ID marks like tattoos." A "Things to Remember" section allegedly contained: "Hit harder... light rope broke under stress." The document allegedly referenced specific pages in FBI profiler John Douglas's Mindhunter.Jessica Taylor's remains were found along Ocean Parkway with her head removed and tattoos mutilated. DA Ray Tierney stated: "The exact method by which these murders were committed in excruciating detail in that document is in some cases identical to the methodology used to murder the victims."Twenty-seven years under the same roof produced two completely opposite conclusions. Rex Heuermann's wife Asa Ellerup still calls him her "hero" and described jail visits as feeling like "a first date." Their daughter Victoria says he's "most likely the Gilgo Beach serial killer" after speaking with BTK's daughter about having an alleged killer for a father.According to prosecutors, female hairs found on multiple victims were allegedly consistent with DNA from both women. Neither is accused of involvement—the transfer allegedly came from Rex's clothing or their home.The daughter saw what the wife cannot. Both are victims of different truths.Rex Heuermann has pleaded not guilty to all charges.

Someone tried to delete this file from Rex Heuermann's hard drives. Forensic analysts recovered it anyway. Tonight we're breaking down every section of what prosecutors call the Long Island Serial Killer's planning document for murder.The document was titled HK2002-04. Hidden on one of fifty-eight hard drives seized from the Massapequa Park basement. According to court documents, it allegedly contained eighty-seven details matching the methodology used on the Gilgo Beach victims.A "Supplies" section allegedly listed cutting tools, acid, tarps, and cat litter. A "Body Prep" section allegedly stated: "remove head and hands, remove ID marks like tattoos." A "Things to Remember" section allegedly contained lessons learned: "Hit harder... light rope broke under stress." References to specific pages in FBI profiler John Douglas's Mindhunter.Jessica Taylor's remains were found along Ocean Parkway with her head removed and tattoos mutilated. The document allegedly describes exactly that.When investigators returned to Rex Heuermann's home, they found infrared evidence of adhesive residue and push pins in the drop ceiling—exactly as allegedly described in the planning document.Now the family that lived with Rex for twenty-seven years is completely fractured. His wife Asa Ellerup still calls him her "hero." Described visiting him in jail as feeling like "a first date." Their daughter Victoria reached a different conclusion after speaking with BTK's daughter: "most likely" guilty.According to prosecutors, female hairs on multiple victims were allegedly consistent with DNA from both women. Neither is accused of involvement—prosecutors say the hair was likely transferred from clothing or the home.Both are victims. Just not of the same truth.Rex Heuermann has pleaded not guilty.

Just not of the same truth.Rex Heuermann has pleaded not guilty.

Prosecutors call it LISK's "blueprint for murder." Defense calls it circumstantial. Today we examine every section of the planning document allegedly found on the Gilgo Beach Killer's hard drive.The file was hidden in unallocated space—someone tried to delete it. Forensic analysts recovered it. According to court documents, it allegedly contained eighty-seven details organized into operational sections."Supplies" allegedly listed cutting tools, acid, tarps, cat litter. "Body Prep" allegedly stated: "remove head and hands, remove ID marks like tattoos." "Things to Remember" allegedly contained the Long Island Serial Killer's lessons from previous crimes."Hit harder," one entry allegedly read. "Light rope broke under stress of being tightened."Suffolk County DA Ray Tierney stated: "The methodology in that document is in some cases identical to the methodology used to murder the victims in this case."Jessica Taylor was found along Ocean Parkway decapitated with mutilated tattoos. Valerie Mack's remains were scattered in a similar pattern. The document allegedly describes exactly this methodology.But here's the detail that takes the Gilgo Beach case to another level: references to FBI profiler John Douglas's Mindhunter. Specific page numbers. Prosecutors allege LISK studied behavioral analysis to avoid getting caught.When investigators returned to the alleged Long Island Serial Killer's basement, infrared examination allegedly revealed physical evidence matching the document's descriptions. Adhesive residue. Push pins in the drop ceiling.The defense has challenged the DNA evidence and pointed to other suspects. Rex Heuermann has pleaded not guilty to all Gilgo Beach murder charges.The LISK trial is set for September 2026.

What prosecutors found on Rex Heuermann's hard drive may be the most damning evidence in the Gilgo Beach case—a deleted Microsoft Word document they say the Long Island Serial Killer used as a literal instruction manual.The file was titled HK2002-04. According to court documents, it allegedly contained eighty-seven details organized into sections: Problems, Supplies, Targets, Dump Sites, Pre-Prep, Prep, Body Prep, and Things to Remember."Remove head and hands," the Body Prep section allegedly stated. "Remove ID marks like tattoos."Jessica Taylor's remains were found along Ocean Parkway with her head removed, arms severed, and a tattoo mutilated. Valerie Mack's body was discovered in similar condition.But the "Things to Remember" section may be most disturbing. According to prosecutors, it allegedly contained LISK's lessons learned from previous crimes:"Hit harder—too many hit to take down." "Use heavy rope for neck—light rope broke under stress of being tightened." "More sleep & noise control = more play time."References to "next time" allegedly indicate prior experience being refined.And then there's the FBI connection. The Gilgo Beach Killer's document allegedly referenced specific pages in John Douglas's Mindhunter—the foundational text for behavioral analysis. Prosecutors allege LISK studied how killers get caught and used it to avoid detection.When Suffolk County investigators returned to the alleged Long Island Serial Killer's home, infrared examination allegedly revealed adhesive residue and push pins matching descriptions in the document.Rex Heuermann has pleaded not guilty.

Part 2 of 5: The document prosecutors say proves everything about the Gilgo Beach murders.Hidden on one of fifty-eight hard drives seized from Rex Heuermann's Massapequa Park basement, forensic analysts found a deleted Microsoft Word file titled HK2002-04. According to court documents, it allegedly contained eighty-seven details prosecutors call LISK's "blueprint for serial murder."In this episode, we examine every section of the alleged Long Island Serial Killer's planning document and its connection to the Gilgo Beach victims.According to bail applications and court filings, the document allegedly contained: "Supplies": cutting tools, acid, hair nets, tarps, cat litter "TGR" (targets): notes that "small is good" for victims "DS" (dump sites): including Mill Road in Manorville, where Jessica Taylor and Valerie Mack were found "Body Prep": "remove head and hands, remove ID marks like tattoos" "Things to Remember": "hit harder," "heavy rope for neck—light rope broke" Jessica Taylor was found along Ocean Parkway decapitated with mutilated tattoos. The methodology allegedly matches.The Gilgo Beach Killer's document also allegedly referenced pages in FBI profiler John Douglas's Mindhunter—passages about perpetrator psychology and crime scene behavior. Prosecutors allege LISK studied how serial killers get caught.When Suffolk County investigators returned to the home, infrared examination allegedly revealed physical evidence matching the document: adhesive residue on paneling, push pins in drop ceilings.DA Tierney: "The exact method by which these murders were committed in excruciating detail in that document is in some cases identical to the methodology used to murder the victims."Rex Heuermann has pleaded not guilty.

Oh it is good to be back for Season 2! This month’s theme is Bad (ra-ra, ah-ah-ah) Romance and today we’re kicking the year off with a discussion of serial killer Romance Fiction. The episode begins with a very reasonable conversation about the ethics of True Crime entertainment and then … well. But within the proceeding chaos — games, Harry’s “incontinence”, and Amy’s determination to be the easiest prey a murderer could ask for — are a few gems regarding K-Dramas, Dark Romance novels, serial killers as patriarchs, and humanity’s fixation with the macabre. This month we’re reading How to Kill a Guy in Ten Dates by Shailee Thompson. If a slasher x Rom-Com mashup appeals to you, get yourself a copy and stay tuned for our interview with the author on March 19, followed by our live book club over on YouTube on March 26!

Pat Doering and Mike Wilkerson share personal experiences with real-life hostage scenarios and negotiations. What stood out to you most in their comparisons between Hollywood and reality? The episode discusses the importance of not “playing into” a subject's delusions during negotiation. Why might affirming a delusional belief be risky, and what are alternative approaches? The team talks about the integration of mental health professionals into law enforcement responses. What are the potential challenges and benefits discussed concerning this collaboration? Both hosts and Dr. Morgan mention the rise in mental health-related crisis calls. How do you think police departments can best equip themselves to handle these situations? The episode criticizes the decision to send an additional "hostage" (Spencer) into the crisis situation as unrealistic and dangerous. Why is this problematic from a tactical and negotiation standpoint? With so much of the episode's critique revolving around writing choices for suspense versus realism, do you think it's possible for TV dramas to balance excitement and accuracy? Why or why not? The discussion touched on situational awareness, both in professional and personal life. How might increased public education on situational awareness benefit everyday safety? After watching this episode and listening to the breakdown, do you think shows like Criminal Minds help or hurt public perception of law enforcement, negotiation, and mental health crises? Why?

2026 is the year Rex Heuermann finally faces trial for seven murders spanning three decades. But before the courtroom doors open, a stunning arrest just reshaped everything we thought we knew about Gilgo Beach. In December 2025, police charged Andrew Dykes — the father of "Baby Doe" — with murdering Tanya Jackson and their two-year-old daughter Tatiana. For fourteen years, investigators assumed they were victims of the Long Island Serial Killer. They weren't. Dykes had been cooperating with the investigation for months before his arrest. His name was on the child's birth certificate. That means Ocean Parkway wasn't one killer's dumping ground. It was a corridor for multiple predators. But Rex Heuermann is still facing the fight of his life. Seven victims. One trial. Judge Mazzei denied severance and admitted cutting-edge DNA evidence the defense called "magic." The prosecution has filed its statement of readiness with a 723-page evidence inventory. And then there's the planning document — a deleted Word file found on Heuermann's hard drive that prosecutors say is a literal blueprint for murder. Categories for "Body Prep." Instructions to remove heads, hands, and identifying tattoos. Notes about rope strength. References to FBI profiler John Douglas's Mindhunter. A dump site listed that matches where victims were actually found. January 13, 2026 is the next major court date. After that, we're looking at a trial date announcement. In this episode, we break down everything coming in 2026: the evidence, the victims, the family fracture, and the cold cases still waiting for answers. Karen Vergata. Asian Male Doe. Shannan Gilbert. The investigation isn't over. Rex Heuermann says he's innocent. His daughter believes otherwise. The jury will decide. #RexHeuermann #GilgoBeach #LISK #LongIslandSerialKiller #TrueCrime #GilgoBeachMurders #ColdCase #TrueCrimeNews #SerialKiller #Justice2026 Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

2026 is the year Rex Heuermann finally faces trial for seven murders spanning three decades. But before the courtroom doors open, a stunning arrest just reshaped everything we thought we knew about Gilgo Beach. In December 2025, police charged Andrew Dykes — the father of "Baby Doe" — with murdering Tanya Jackson and their two-year-old daughter Tatiana. For fourteen years, investigators assumed they were victims of the Long Island Serial Killer. They weren't. Dykes had been cooperating with the investigation for months before his arrest. His name was on the child's birth certificate. That means Ocean Parkway wasn't one killer's dumping ground. It was a corridor for multiple predators. But Rex Heuermann is still facing the fight of his life. Seven victims. One trial. Judge Mazzei denied severance and admitted cutting-edge DNA evidence the defense called "magic." The prosecution has filed its statement of readiness with a 723-page evidence inventory. And then there's the planning document — a deleted Word file found on Heuermann's hard drive that prosecutors say is a literal blueprint for murder. Categories for "Body Prep." Instructions to remove heads, hands, and identifying tattoos. Notes about rope strength. References to FBI profiler John Douglas's Mindhunter. A dump site listed that matches where victims were actually found. January 13, 2026 is the next major court date. After that, we're looking at a trial date announcement.

In this episode of The Redacted Report, we reopen the case of Edmund Kemper, the so-called “Co-Ed Killer,” to expose the details that were buried in thousands of pages of police files, psychiatric evaluations, and trial transcripts.This isn't the version told in documentaries or dramatizations. This is the story of how a system failed, how warning signs were missed, and how one of California's most intelligent predators learned to play both sides of the law .Ed Kemper wasn't just hiding in plain sight — he was sitting at the bar with the very officers searching for him. Inside The Jury Room in Santa Cruz, he befriended Detective Johnson, Officer Martinez, and Sergeant Williams, absorbing investigative methods, forensic procedures, and common police mistakes over casual drinks. What they didn't realize was that their “gentle giant” drinking buddy was gathering operational intelligence. Kemper collected handcuffs, police radios, and scanner frequencies, giving him real-time access to law enforcement movements — knowledge that helped him stay one step ahead for nearly a year while bodies continued to surface. Behind the charm and calm demeanor was a man who had already fooled the system once. At just 21, Kemper had been released from Atascadero State Hospital, declared no threat to society despite having murdered his grandparents as a teenager. Working in the hospital's psychology lab, he studied mental health diagnostics, learned how to manipulate tests, and even handled real psychological profiles — including those of violent offenders. He used that knowledge to beat the system, understand his captors, and later, to outthink investigators.We trace the moments where fate nearly intervened — the traffic stops, the roadblocks, the missed connections between agencies that could have saved lives.Officers questioned him, waved him through, even trusted him, all because he seemed “too polite” to be dangerous. Through firsthand reports and redacted files, we expose how institutional blind spots and bureaucratic silos allowed a killer to thrive in plain view. From the quiet house on Ord Drive, where he dismembered victims while his mother was at work, to his Alameda apartment, where neighbors lived just feet away from unimaginable horror, we explore the forensic trail left behind — the vehicle evidence, the recovered photographs, and the chilling confession tapes where Ed bragged, analyzed, and justified every act in painstaking detail.His hours-long conversations with FBI profilers Robert Ressler and John Douglas later became the foundation of modern criminal profiling, shaping how future generations would define the term “organized serial killer.”But beneath all the psychology and procedure lies the story of his mother, Clarnell Kemper — the woman he blamed, feared, and eventually murdered. Working as an administrator at UC Santa Cruz, she may have unknowingly processed paperwork for students her son would later kill.The tragedy of their relationship — and the evidence found in her home — reveal the disturbing cycle of resentment and rage that fueled his crimes.This episode goes beyond the headlines to confront the decisions that allowed a double murderer to be paroled into his mother's home, the psychiatric assessments that missed every danger sign, the sealed records that kept police in the dark, and the agencies that failed to communicate. It's not a story about glorifying monsters — it's about learning from the systems that created them. Because monsters don't always look like monsters.They smile, they shake your hand, and they convince the world they're harmless — until it's too late.We close by honoring the ten victims whose lives mattered far more than the man who took them: Maude and Edmund Kemper Sr., Mary Ann Pesce, Anita Luchessa, Aiko Koo, Cindy Schall, Rosalind Thorpe, Alice Liu, Clarnell Strandberg, and Sally Hallett. Their stories remind us that behind every case file and redacted page are real lives, real loss, and the lessons society cannot afford to ignore.

“Bust Down” is single-camera sitcom created by and starring Langston Kerman, Jak Knight, Chris Redd, and Sam Jay that premiered on Peacock in 2022. It centers on four friends who work low-wage jobs at a casino in Gary, Indiana. The show leans heavily into raunchy humor and over-the-top scenarios, with the creators noting they wanted it to be “raunchy, irreverent, and complicated". Critics generally responded positively and praised Bust Down's bold comic voice and willingness to push boundaries. Sadly, months after the show's release, Jak Knight passed away. It's unclear if this factored into the end of the show. Bust Down now exists as a 6 episode show that may have never realized it's full potential and floats on various streamers. How did the S1E1 boys feel about the show? Listen as they deep dive the pilot episode, "Bad Hang". Starring: Chris Redd, Sam Jay, Langston Kerman, Jak Knight, DomiNque Perry, Freddie Gibbs, John Douglas, & Dan Bakkedahl www.S1E1POD.com Instagram & X (Twitter): @S1E1POD

First, we talk to The Indian Express' Diplomatic Affairs Editor Shubhajit Roy about the H-1B visa and the hike in its fee. Initially it used to fall within the range of 2000-8000 US dollars but now companies will have to pay 100,000 US dollars to get this visa. Shubhajit talks about the reason behind this fee hike and the impact it will have on the India US relationship. Next, we talk to The Indian Express' Mohamed Thaver about how Maharashtra may soon start criminal profiling, similar to what the FBI pioneered in the late 1970s with serial killers like Ted Bundy, as was done by FBI special agent John Douglas. (15:01)Lastly, we talk about a tigress who was responsible for increasing the population of tigers in Chhattisgarh's Achanakmar Tiger Reserve.

In the season finale of Killer Psyche, retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong dives into the infamous case of David Berkowitz, the “Son of Sam.” Between 1976 and 1977, Berkowitz wreaked havoc on the boroughs of New York with a string of shootings that took the lives of six people and wounded several others. Even more shocking was his motive: a demonic dog told him to kill. But was David Berkowitz truly psychotic, or was his claim of insanity all an act? Candice delves into the rage and resentment brewing in Berkowitz from early in his life, and shares fascinating details from his interviews with FBI profiling pioneers Robert Ressler and John Douglas.Be the first to know about Wondery's newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!

Send us a textRoad School.That's what my wife calls it.In 2017 we tuned into Netflix's new series Mindhunters, based on the book by John Douglas and Mark Olshaker. In the premier episode, directed by David Fincher, the FBI agents in the series are traveling across the country and teaching police departments how to identify serious violent offenders. They called it Road School and it stuck with my wife.By then I had been doing that very same thing, albeit the topic was a little different, for 17 years. She even had “Bye Bye BPD, Hello Road School” put on top of my retirement cake.My second career since my retirement didn't happen overnight. I didn't retire on Monday and then start teaching on Tuesday…well, actually I sort of did just that, but in reality, the ground work had started 20 years earlier.

We dive deep into the backgrounds of Damien, Jason, and Jessie. Is there anything in their history that would make you believe it's possible they could commit this kind of crime?

May, 1985. Two days before her high school graduation, Shari Faye Smith was abducted from her parents' driveway in broad daylight. Her kidnapper taunted Shari's family by phone for days, calling in the middle of the night and revealing bone-chilling details of his crime. With little evidence to go on, South Carolina investigators brought in FBI criminal profiler John Douglas and his colleagues, who used the recorded phone calls to create a profile of their UNSUB. About 2 weeks later, 9-year-old Debra May Helmick was kidnapped in a similar manner. When both girls turned up dead, investigators realized they had a probable serial killer on their hands – and they needed to find him before he could strike again.
