1
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:23,071
Over 90% of serial killers are white males.

2
00:00:23,071 --> 00:00:25,680
Usually from low to middle class backgrounds.

3
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:27,760
These men are usually intelligent.

4
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:29,960
But as students have difficulty focusing.

5
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:32,600
Most experience a traumatic childhood.

6
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:36,800
Often having being abused psychologically, physcially, or sexually.

7
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:39,880
Typically, they may be raised in unstable families

8
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:43,554
often with criminal psychiatric, alcholic histories.

9
00:00:43,554 --> 00:00:47,840
Raised in such families, these children tend to spend much time on their own.

10
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:51,772
And as a result many praciticed animal cruelty at a young age.

11
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:16,686
Sometimes where, you know, you might not have extreme forms of physical abuse

12
00:01:16,686 --> 00:01:20,600
there is always some extreme emotional or psychological

13
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:25,520
abuse that these young child are subjected to, which warps

14
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:27,095
them out of shape.

15
00:01:27,095 --> 00:01:29,818
I mean one way or another they have come

16
00:01:29,818 --> 00:01:32,400
to associate the infliction of pain with pleasure.

17
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:36,846
For example, John Wayne Gacy had an alcholic father who often beat him.

18
00:01:36,846 --> 00:01:39,640
John senior would frequently insult the child,

19
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:43,840
practically eliminating his sef confidence which lead to later difficulties that

20
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,557
John junior would have with his masculinity.

21
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,760
As an adult, John began to rape and kill, eventually burying 29

22
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,212
bodies in a crawl space under his house.

23
00:01:53,212 --> 00:01:55,689
As Gacy was quite popular in his comminity,

24
00:01:55,689 --> 00:01:59,649
his neighbors couldn't believe that he was capable of such atrocities.

25
00:02:00,265 --> 00:02:03,720
Most people who suffer as children grow out of it

26
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,920
and become upstanding, decent human beings.

27
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:11,760
But serial killers who have suffered as children, repeat

28
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,105
the same mistakes over the course of their lives.

29
00:02:15,105 --> 00:02:18,200
They can't make the transitions into adulthood.

30
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,840
They have trouble making the transition in middle age.

31
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,560
At the very time in their lives when they feel that they should

32
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,760
be reaching the pinacle of success.

33
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,520
They find that they are sliding down hill fast.

34
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,760
They want to feel important,they want to feel special.

35
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:37,717
They crave the sense of power, dominance and control

36
00:02:37,717 --> 00:02:41,702
but they simply can't achieve it in any respectable way.

37
00:02:41,702 --> 00:02:46,040
So they kill and they tourture, and they sodomize and dismember.

38
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,591
That makes them feel good about themselves.

39
00:02:48,591 --> 00:02:52,751
Ted Bundy was born into poverty and never knew his father

40
00:02:52,751 --> 00:02:56,480
he had good grades in school but an unmanageable temper.

41
00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:01,240
At the age of 16 he bacame a voyeur, obsessd with masturbating

42
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,449
who would have known that Bundy would become a serial murderer

43
00:03:04,449 --> 00:03:07,298
and yet he killed many women.

44
00:03:08,622 --> 00:03:11,680
Many Americans, when they think of a serial killer

45
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:16,594
will think of a glassy eyed lunitic, a monster.

46
00:03:16,594 --> 00:03:20,200
Someone who acts that way,someone who looks that way.

47
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:26,003
But yet the typical serial killer is extraordinarily ordinary.

48
00:03:26,003 --> 00:03:30,080
He is a white middle aged man

49
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:36,440
who has an insatiable appetite for power, control, and dominance.

50
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:40,600
He kills not for money or revenge.

51
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,920
But because it makes him feel good,

52
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:46,640
because he enjoys it, beacuse he has fun with it, he likes

53
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:51,160
the trill, the excitement, the exhilleration that the gets from

54
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:56,560
squeazing the last gasp of breath from his dying victim's body.

55
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,520
He enjoys the suffering on the part of the victim.

56
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,120
He tries to make it slow and painful.

57
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,465
It makes him feel superior to the extent that he makes

58
00:04:05,465 --> 00:04:07,542
his victim inferior.

59
00:04:07,542 --> 00:04:10,320
Gacy maintained a facad of respectability.

60
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:15,080
He maintained a business, a family, married with several children.

61
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:18,920
That facad was sufficient to cover his tracks

62
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:20,440
for many many years.

63
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,431
He enjoyed dressing up in a clown suits and clowning.

64
00:04:23,431 --> 00:04:25,646
He said that clowns could get away with murder.

65
00:04:25,646 --> 00:04:27,880
Then his wife left him and

66
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,120
his business started failing and at that point,

67
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:34,760
Gacy was caught, arrested and convicted.

68
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:38,600
And after three appeals in his case, Gacy was executed.

69
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,877
With 5% of the world's population, the United States produces

70
00:04:55,877 --> 00:05:00,160
more serial killers than the rest of the world, accounting for 76%

71
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,037
of the national toll.

72
00:05:02,037 --> 00:05:05,840
Europe produces the second most serial killers with 17%.

73
00:05:05,840 --> 00:05:08,680
England leads European countries 28%,

74
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,800
followed by Germany at 27%.

75
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:13,262
California has the highest number

76
00:05:13,262 --> 00:05:16,600
of serial homicide cases in the United States while New York,

77
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,418
Texas and Illinois follow closely behind.

78
00:05:19,418 --> 00:05:23,040
Maine has the lowest number of serial homicide cases in the United States

79
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:27,831
and statistics reveal that 65% of serial killer vicitims are women.

80
00:05:28,954 --> 00:05:32,000
A lady killer with a blood lost, and a temper out of control

81
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:35,769
in his 42 years, Bundy killed aproximately 36 young women.

82
00:05:35,938 --> 00:05:38,760
No one really knows how many he killed.

83
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,760
Although, once a police officer asked Bundy, in shock,

84
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,000
how one person could kill 36 women, and

85
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:48,640
Bundy shook his head and said "Add one digit to that and you'll have it."

86
00:05:50,794 --> 00:05:55,480
There are at most about 200 victims of serial killers per year.

87
00:05:55,480 --> 00:06:00,320
That number although very large hails by comparison

88
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:06,268
with the almost 18,000 single vicitm murders in the United States

89
00:06:06,268 --> 00:06:08,357
on a yearly basis.

90
00:06:08,357 --> 00:06:12,262
The problem in the country is not serial murder.

91
00:06:12,262 --> 00:06:15,680
It's domestic violence, it's workplace homicide

92
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:20,080
it's two guys going into a bar, one takes out a gun and shoots the other.

93
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:24,360
The problem on the other hand is that serial murders amass

94
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:25,935
a large body count.

95
00:06:25,935 --> 00:06:31,680
We are talking about a small number of guys who do a lot of damage.

96
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,920
They may kill 5 or 10 or even 20 or more.

97
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:39,249
Some of them have killed hundreds.

98
00:06:39,249 --> 00:06:44,154
That is enough to terrify most people in the country.

99
00:06:53,323 --> 00:06:56,840
A cannible is person who eats human flesh.

100
00:06:56,840 --> 00:07:00,840
There is much discussion as to whether canniblism is an inherent characteristic

101
00:07:00,840 --> 00:07:03,560
of all human beings, our animal impulses.

102
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,440
Or whether canniblism stems only from the minds of mad beast

103
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:11,058
such as some of the most prolific serial killers.

104
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,520
Canniblism is the ultimate form of agression.

105
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:19,360
There are tribes around the world who

106
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:23,160
have incorperated canniblism into their warfare

107
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,498
so they achieve an ultimate victory.

108
00:07:25,498 --> 00:07:31,138
Not only by killing their enemybut also by devouring their remains.

109
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:35,760
Serial killers like Andre Chicitillo,

110
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:39,480
have also incorperated sadism into their warfare.

111
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:47,920
They have in the most sadistic possible way, cannibalize their victims by

112
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:51,880
eating their hearts, or their eyes or their genitalia.

113
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:55,400
In an effort to achieve ultimate pain and suffering on the part

114
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:56,800
of the vicitm.

115
00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:04,240
It's this sadistic impulse that feeds the frail and fragile

116
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:10,400
ego of a serial killer who desires so much, so desperately to

117
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:15,360
achieve a sense of power over other human beings and canniblism

118
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,449
is the means whereby that happens.

119
00:08:18,449 --> 00:08:24,492
Anthropological evidence seems to suggest that canniblism is some kind activity,

120
00:08:24,492 --> 00:08:29,594
that our pre-humaned ancesstors indulged in with a certain

121
00:08:29,594 --> 00:08:31,480
amount of regularity.

122
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,582
So i think that there is probably some sort of innate impulse

123
00:08:34,582 --> 00:08:36,520
towards that kind of activity.

124
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:39,000
One of the things that we see with

125
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:49,480
serial killers, I believe is that they kind of act out very archaic

126
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:56,846
primitive impulses that clearly still exist on some very very deep level.

127
00:08:56,846 --> 00:09:00,760
Canniblisms that you'll hear are from these mentally ill, psychotic types

128
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:05,960
that they are consuming their victim to make their victim

129
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:11,040
part of them so that they can keep them and have them always.

130
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:17,317
Any serial killer that resorts to canniblism is doing so as a last resort,

131
00:09:17,317 --> 00:09:20,120
out of desperation.

132
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,600
Certaily whether if it's for sadism or affection,

133
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:34,369
any serial killer who canniblizes his vicitims has broken one of the most provasive

134
00:09:34,369 --> 00:09:37,858
and profound taboos in all of society.

135
00:09:37,858 --> 00:09:41,160
Psychologically, this means that the killer

136
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:45,640
achieved just the opposite that he had hoped.

137
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,637
He may get a temporary rush,

138
00:09:48,637 --> 00:09:52,492
he may feel temporarily high, but in terms of his ego, in terms of

139
00:09:52,492 --> 99:59:59,999
self image he has got...
