I hope they look into and do show on dylan rounds. Especially the fathers on heavy D interview. When interviewer asked him what he thought happened and other crucial times he snaps down and left. In this shed where the boy may have been harmed. In this video only he clutches his stomach and leans into it like nerves. Something there.
@@LadyLuck13 silly silly silly…….news right now? Well, makes sense I guess if they were all sitting around watching the news and at the exact moment there is a breaking bulletin they start analyzing WHAT? Bored before it even starts? Move along little doggie, move along lol…..
What is wrong with me that Greg just comes across like such a nice guy? Lol I’m sure he could intimidate the hell outta me - I don’t know him obviously lol - but every time they mention stuff like that I’m like, “really?? Greg would do that??” I think it’s probably because he looks so much like a psychiatrist I saw who was such a nice sweet man - I can’t imagine Greg being vicious lol
Also I think mark would totally twist me around in various storytelling archetypal artistic discussions and I’d suddenly admit something in my own ramblings…that is, if I could stop myself from randomly yelling out, “stress and presh-ah!!!!” as I’m wont to do these days 😂😂😂
Mark, you totally nailed this one with your commentary about holding the two realities. I don’t feel you get recognized for how astute and insightful you are. Bravo!
His mother didn't just scold him to make him mind. She was a lunatic too and made him sleep in the cellar and constantly degraded him. When the state released him after killing his grandparents, the psychologists recommended he not be placed back with his mother and the state placed him back with her. Great job by the idiots "in charge."
Great point! Being around critical and abusive ppl is enough to make a child develop abnormal behaviors, add that it comes from someone whose expected to be nurturing and protective, forget about it! A recipe to living a life in the Twilight Zone
that is definitively awful but most people who go through similar upbringings or worse do not end up murdering others! its one piece of the reason, not everything
My older brother was the scapegoat to an emotionally and physically abusive mother. The greatest pain of my life, greater than the pain of my own abuse, is my memory of watching her hurt him. He wasn’t a monster as a child, though many people might call him a monster now. He wanted desperately to be loved by her. Listening to Ed Kemper makes me very sad.
Ed Kemper in his early years being interviewed in the 1970s & 80s was just a fascinating person for me to watch out of all the serial killers!! I also can't wait for the Behaviour Panel to give their expert opinions of him!!!
He scares the crap out of ME! When I watched these guys cover Gacy, though, I felt like I was visiting an old friend when I heard him speak. I had to keep shaking myself awake so I could really hear what he was saying. So creepy!
@@katiegwynn4495 Kemper never used to scare me, which is what scares the crap out of me now. I would've bought it hook, line and sinker if I wouldn't know what he did. It's that he seems so self aware and calm when he explains how his mind works
@@katfromthekong414 I know what you mean. I guess I was the same with Gacy .he talked about killing like he would talk about a trip to the store! He spoke so calmly that I wasn't even hearing his messed up stories! I think Kemper is a worse serial killer though. If there is such a thing
@@katfromthekong414 Every comment I've ever read about him, people have always thought he was the most forthright and honest of the serial killers. I'm so glad I'm watching this because it takes the panel to show us the BS that's going on under the veneer. 😳
So, Ed Kemper used to narrate books for the blind, my great grandma was blind, so I grew up on hearing Ed Kempers voice from time to time, and when I grew up and found out who that voice belonged to, it shattered a big part of my childhood lol
It’s so helpful to see a psychopath/sociopath cry, and then have you guys explain it. If you’ve been around these people, it is very confusing to see them cry. It’s a relief to hear they might just be crying about themselves. I never thought of that.
Want a good tip for sussing out narcissists? If you're genuinely crying because someone hurt you, and they say "you're only sorry for yourself," then they're a narcissist projecting their shriveled black heart onto you.
FINALLY 😍 Oh guys - that’s one of my biggest wishes, whom you should analyze! Looking so much forward to that! Till thursday y‘all. That gonna be a good one! What a great start in the week now! Thanks fab 4 😉🤗
One of my favourite Netflix series is mindhunters and oh my goodness, watching this makes me realise how fantastic the guy who played him is almost identical with his cadence and demeanour. Great video as always guys ❤
Chase taught me something (1:05). I didnt know about how we view ourselves in first person when remembering emotions and third for minor remembered events. So cool
@@mikehuff9793 he also played in the movie about Richard Jewell, the security guard falsely accused of planting the bomb at the Atlanta Olympic Games. That story is heartbreaking to me.
Just a plug for a great actor: Cameron Britton was so incredibly creepy in the role of Ed Kemper on "Mindhunter", that I actually shivered during parts of his performance.
I was in a coma for multiple weeks after my traumatic brain injury, and my memory was practically nonexistent for a while after I emerged. What I remember from that period is a recurring dream, that I was trying to wake up, but "they" kept "pushing me back under" and telling me that I was sleeping and couldn't wake up. I finally "decided for myself" that I was going to wake up anyway, and that's when I started remembering multiple consecutive moments--so this dream reflected reality, only not perfectly. I also have brief memories of my early life that feel like I'm watching home movies taken by my best friend; it's a first-person experience, with a degree or two of separation. Kemper's attitude reminds me of both those experiences, when I almost remember, and want to remember, but can't quite grasp the memory. "Disturbing" is an understated way to put it.
@@tammycook1475, thank you. It's not as scary as expected, because I have no memory of ever being different; my family has had it much worse than I in that respect.
Was is Ed Kemper that was bribed into giving information by buying Kemper some really nice ladies pumps that he liked to wear? I can't remember, but remember then saying how the killer was really tall.
The irony of Kemper is that everything he hates so much about his mother he has become himself. A great example of this is that he buried a victim's head under the bedroom of his mother so that the victim would look up to the mother because she supposedly liked people looking up to her. Kemper himself absolutely loves his role as a celebrity prisoner, “expert” and people who hang on his every word.
I know this is an old video, but i hope you guys went back after and watched a documentary or something on this guy. There's documentation of many of the things you said you didn't think happened. Like he really did hang out with cops, they knew him, and they never suspected him until he turned himself in. Even then, they thought it was a bad joke, he had to actually convince them that it was really him. He's really fascinating to learn about.
Don’t know this guy but very scary guy. Love all of your comments and insight, I watch the behavior panel religiously, find it absolutely fascinating. The best thing on UA-cam. You are fascinating men to listen to. Each one of you very charming as well. Great Team, Great work
I love seeing the part of the video with the behavior you're referencing as you talk about it. Makes it so much more understandable. Great insight as always!
Watch actor Cameron Britton(umbrella academy) played Kemper on Mind Hunter, phenomenal job! You actually end up liking and thinking you're actually watching Kemper. Great job guys!
My new fave! You guys, I love the new tricks you're using to help us follow what you're assessing like when Greg lip syncs what Ed Kemper is saying, when Chase explained why people do nothing and when you highlight portions of the tape while you're explaining body language. So fascinating.
I've heard you guys talk about culture many times. Well, the past is also another country. I would have been a teenager when all this was happening. I can remember a constant stream of documentaries and articles with 'experts' blaming mothers for the worst aspects of male violence. It's where I first heard the word 'overbearing'. Mothers were too mean, too doting, too distant, too close, too neglectful, too protective. The mother story played right into the social zeitgeist and demonstrated to those same 'experts' that he was just as knowledgeable as they were. The young Kemper used to break into the prison psychiatrist's files to see what other sick individuals had done, how they were caught, how they justified their crimes. He left prison that first time fully armed with everything he needed to know to accomplish what came next.
Exactly, people and experts that think that criminals get locked up and come out better are kidding themselves. There the few exceptions (I don’t like using broad brushes), but in general criminals pick up more tricks from others that are locked up as well.
To be fair, Kemper really did hang out in police bars, most notable The Jury Room. There's even a plaque that talks about his history in the bar itself where he was known as "Big Ed". I love the show! However, I do wish you guys would read a quick history about the suspect as I've noticed that you sometimes dispute facts that are actually well known to various cases, and these rebuttals have nothing to do with their body language. For instance, Scott saying the cops, "Would've caught onto him" and "this guy is asking a lot of questions, let's talk to him!" That's absolutely what would happen today because of the profiles of people like Kemper and statistics indicating that the perpetrator of a crime is more likely to be interested and/or interfere with the investigation. This was the 70's! They didn't have the benefit of 50 years of hindsight through which we view the case today, and everybody was talking about the case at the time in the area. It just seems like you guys have a tendency to say "that didn't happen" sometimes when there's no relation to body language whatsoever, and it can undermine the validity of factual statements that you do make. Not asking you to be forensic or case experts, but a little familiarity with the case, even barebones facts, would bolster the rest of the analysis and make a stronger case for body language without erroneous assertions detracting from the discourse.
Damn! I was in The Jury Room once. Drive by it but never knew. Have to check that out. Thx! Not a bar type guy, but thats worth a stop and a brewski. See ya on the Boardwalk dude.
To be honest, Ed would have played these 4 like pianos. They are totally under estimating him. There's a reason SO many girls wrongly trusted him, and why he turned himself in, after finally killing his mother. Ed was one F'd up individual, but he wasn't dumb.
I've seen a couple interviews with Kemper, and he actually addresses people talking too much about a case, whether it be by asking an unusual amount of questions or just showing interest. He said he actually went out of his way not to talk about the murders happening in the community. Because he knew that was one of the things police used to zero in on suspects. So, he was ahead of the curve even by 1970's standards.
I'm happy that the BP reiterated that psychopaths do not come with warning labels. A person's encounter with an anti-social, personality type might not be, thankfully, on the level of Ed Kemper; however, if one gets involved with an asocial person, he or she will not walk away unscathed. Thanks for another great show!
Chase, it was so nice to see your wedding photos on FB, and delightful to see that you had the entire team in the wedding! It is so special that you found each other and it is a true friendship. Wishing you many years and happy memories with your wife, and with your team of conspirators in the Behavior Panel!!❤
This is why I don’t agree with people that say teenagers that murder shouldn’t spend the rest of their lives in prison. If he had stayed in prison from 15 on all those lives he took would still be here. All the pain he caused would’ve ended with the grandparents death.
I was the scapegoat for an emotionally and physically abusive narcissistic mother. Her facade to friends and others was gracious, and even indulgent toward me. She forced me to perform as though this was the truth. She was a monster, but I felt for her, I knew she was traumatised by her parents. She projected all her fury, self loathing and worthlessness into me. It became mine, thats the way I felt about myself. I used to lie awake at night and imagine killing her- when I desperately wished to love her, and be loved by her. I hated myself for these feelings of violence- I knew it was wrong. The fury, self loathing and feeling of worthlessness expressed itself internally- I took drugs, self harmed, dissociated, my nervous system collapsed, my posture twisted, I attempted suicide rather than express outwards. Maybe he was a psychopath to start with, I wasnt. I had some insight into what was going on. To get Jungian for a sec, I had no choice but to take on her shadow material, it drove me, it was like a "demon", and I also had to deal with my own. There is a part of me that wishes I could have just expelled it all upon other people, but I couldnt do that- I knew what it felt like. Instead, I became over empathetic and other exploiters seemed to have a radar for my own low self worth to take advantage of. Its been a long road of healing, Im still not there, dont know if I'll ever be.
The fact that you have a great insight into why she did that and also how it affected you and your future relationships is quite remarkable and even admirable. You should be extremely proud of yourself for coming through all that and not using it as an excuse to turn on others. You are more amazing than you realise. Take good care of yourself and keep on your path of healing. I wish you the best xx
kudos to you! it's tough to feel like a functional adult after going through that. i'm sorry to hear that you suffered this sort of abuse. it's very impressive that you have such insight now, looking back. your mother shouldn't have been allowed to raise you... i agree about abusive childhoods do not create murders. (related, but i don't want to repeat myself: see my comment above as a reply under a comment started by @Phyllis Kloeckner.)
Also, how am I supposed to get anything done. The Behavior Panel is the best show around. When you guys upload a video, I get so excited and watching y’all together just makes my day.
Edmund Jr. (this mans adult father) later stated that "suicide missions in wartime and the atomic bomb testings were nothing compared to living with [Clarnell(this mans mother)]" and that she affected him "more than three hundred and ninety-six days and nights of fighting on the front did."[9] In my opinion if an adult man who has seen a year or more of war time describes her influence that way on him, just in regard to living together, it is worth sincere investigation into the claim that her influence played a prominant role on her young male child who has not seen war, cannot defend or protect himself and is at her mercy.
All of you guys the greatest. But Chase is the cutest. Can you imagine being one of his kids and getting “the lecture” about emptying the garbage bin as an example of the “bystander effect”? I think those kids’ biggest dopamine rush is laughter in the hallway after that!
The unstated context not mentioned by our panel is that Kemper was a major part of the FBIs first serious attempt at serial killer profiling. At this point in his life he already had the feedback that not only was his participation valuable but it resulted in a success. I think a lot of the blame the panel attributes to duping is better explained through this context. The things he is saying is a parroted version of what the serial killer profile concluded and this profile was new and exciting. Kemper's ego and desire to be an intellectual authority is manifesting this behavior moreso than the desire to be duplicitous, in my opinion. Everything he says about cause and effect is well known now and comes across as comically obvious but was a revelation for its day. And he was a source of that revelation!
When he got out after he killed his grandparents they told his mom to stay away away from him and for him to stay away from her. His mom did not listen or care about why they said it. His mom used to blame him because she couldn't get laid all the time. His mom and grandma were very horrible to him and others. They put him down physically, verbally, mentally. When abuse is all you know that's usually what you become. It was definitely more than basic discipline that messed him up very young. I'd say the hitting him in the head numerous times did something to his head. Head injuries and trauma are a constant tie with serial killers.
This is my favorite one you’ve done yet! I’m watching the best in the world, but I also feel like I’m watching friends (of each other, I’m not that lonely) & this man is a fascinating study. The things we wouldn’t know about serial K-ers w/o his brutal honesty/ego. On as less important note, I like the pointing. It’s a fun way make it flow fast. Also, it’s hysterical in the comments when the squares are in a different order. People lose their minds. Like it will throw the stars out of alignment if Chase and Mark aren’t side by side. It’s silly, but you are beloved & it’s a comfort thing.I don’t mind a change of pace once in a while. Keep up the awesome! The End
You guys are like the Beatles of behavioral and body language analysis. Greg is definitely John, Scott is Paul, Chase is George and Mark is Ringo. The fab four! Keep up the good work!
Fun Fact. Kemper had recorded over 5000 hrs of audio books for blind people. He's read 100's of books that have allowed blind people to experience books. He's actually won awards for doing so many. Upon receiving them he said, "I can't begin to tell you what this has meant to me, to be able to do something constructive for someone else, to be appreciated by so many people, the good feeling it gives me after what I have done."
Prosecutor Ariadne Symons said, "We don't care how much of a model prisoner he is because of the enormity of his crimes."Kemper waived his right to a hearing again in 2012. He was denied parole in 2017 and is next eligible in 2024.
Interesting - looking at wiki this stopped in 2015 when he suffered a stroke and was declared medically disabled. How strange to be listening to an audio book, enjoying the voice etc and then realising it’s a serial killer.
@@Knobblytyressoggysocks theres one small portion of the audio from the book read by Ed Kemper . "Flowers in the Attic" its jus some few seconds ..u can find it at yt.
I remember reading about Kemper and the time he was visited my a lone FBI agent. The agent was interviewing serial killers for their new Behaviour Science dept at Quantico. He was alone with Kemper in a closed cell and Kemper saw the agent was nervous said to him 'the guards won't get here in time'. The agent said 'we (the fbi) don't send us with out protection', Kemper replyed ' do you have a poison pen or something?' The Agent said nothing and Kemper contined answering the agent's question.
I thought it was interesting what Mark said about if you feed his ego you don't get killed. I use to know a clear cut psychopath who hung around where I use to work. He took a liking to me as I was someone who expressed a lot of curiosity in people. He was a DANGEROUS guy with many criminal convictions. A whisker from hardcore violence and extremely volatile. The second he realises you're not a threat he toys with you or manipulates you. To what Mark said you feel the only thing you can do is flood them with compliments, like "wow you've slept with that many women?" or "That's so cool how you randomly beat that guy up". Then just hope he leaves you alone
This was the PBS show that, in 1984, shook me at 15 years old. I had never seen anything like it before and it intrigued me and terrified me at the same time. I was hooked on true crime after that. My mom had those campy True Detective magazines under her bed because she didn’t want me reading them at 10 and 12 years old, but I found them and sneaked and read them under the sheets with a flashlight. I think both of these kinda warped me at a very young age. Weird thing is, in the documentary when he was talking about how he couldn’t get a gf as a young man, I wondered why not, because he wasn’t a bad looking guy, and he was obviously very bright. I probably would’ve given him a first date . . . . and never been seen or heard from again.
43:15 - I am not a medical professional nor have any qualifications other than to have studied this superficially. To differentiate: Narcissism is not an Anti Social Personality Disorder (ASPD) Sociopathy is an Anti Social Personality Disorder (ASPD) Psychopathy is an Anti Social Personality Disorder (ASPD) All Psychopaths are Narcissists. All Narcissists are not Psychopaths or Sociopaths by default but may be one, or other, or neither. Sociopaths may or may not be Narcissists. Therefore to say Ed Kemper is a Psychopath and therefore a Narcissist, and has ASPD is a correct statement. But to say Ed Kemper is a Narcissist and therefore has ASPD is incorrect and illogical. He has ASPD because he is a Psychopath, not because he is a Narcissist. He happens to be both. This distinction is important. People are born as Psychopaths not made. If a Psychopath had a normal, loving childhood, he /she may never harm others. It is the combination of being born a Psychopath and having a terrible childhood that may turn someone very dangerous to others. Psychopaths have no ability to feel empathy and remorse. Sociopaths are made by bad environments. They were not born that way but developed into a twisted human. So a Sociopath will always harm someone. Sociopaths have a limited, albeit weak, ability to feel empathy and remorse. Narcissists can feel emotional pain, but not usually in the same way as others. The emotional pain they may feel is usually related to underlying selfish needs. Underneath the displays of superiority and sense of entitlement, they often feel empty, powerless, and shameful, which they perceive as weakness.
I’m loving this channel. Clearly Scott, Greg, Mark, and Chase are among the best of the best in this field. Very impressive credentials and their work speaks for itself. I’m a classically trained pianist and music teacher, and as a performer I think mindfulness of one’s body movements/body language can have an impact (positive or negative) on the musician’s performance. And also working with students. Again, really enjoying these videos.
He said in another interview that the only murder he felt bad about was that of Aiko Koo because she talked about her plans for the future. She's the one who unlocked the car door for him after he locked himself out.
I had never heard of EK. Watched this analysis, and then found a documentary on him...whoa, this guy did horrific things..thanks for another great video, gentlemen!
@@John-qu9zd yeah the only footage they have is after he was incarcerated so they can’t get a good baseline behavior of him. I’m sure they would be singing a different tune if they could’ve gotten a solid baseline. At least they admit that there’s no absolutes but I think they forgot to mention that in this particular video. Hahahahaha
Scott, Ed Kemper hung out with Cops all the time at the Santa Cruz Station and their Bar the Jury room. I lived in Santa Cruz and Aptos near him. He was a Police fixture.
The cops didn't suspect him. He hung around with them in one of the "cop bars" regularly, they let him come on patrols with them in their patrol cars ... they even thought he was joking when he called to confess and to turn himself in.... Saw a documentary not too long ago. The police officers that were interviewed still sounded shocked.. they never thought him to be a bad guy. Weird but not dangerous
She locked in the basement from the time he was 8. Idk if she was a horrible person or if she seen something in him that made her think she needed to protect his sisters from him. I’ve always wondered that.
I read an interview with Kemper ages ago. His words, in print, sounded very angry; I imagined he was snarling at the reporter. Hearing his voice knocked me for a loop; he doesn't sound dangerous at all (even though he did heinous, violent things).
What Kempers mother destroyed that was important to him was his own sense of worth as I remember reading that she used to lock him in the basement and constantly criticize and humiliate him telling him that no college girl would ever date the likes of him. I think he may have felt she valued them instead of her own son.
Kemper had a high IQ. and he could get inside any interviewers head. He liked to intelligently "dance" with the interviewer, Kemper always led,, and he liked making them feel small. Even though anyone would feel small standing next to a 6'9" monster. I think if he had killed his Mother first he would have never killed anyone else. He was acting out killing his Mother with every murder. That's my opinion.
Every time I hear, “I don’t know much about this case”... And I know too much about ALL these true crime cases I laugh. 😅 So much to unpack about Ed but what always amazes me is the disbelief of the police when he called to confess his crimes.
I heard one of your entro's with Scott's whistling mixed with electronic rap...it sounded amazing.. Keep up all your good works, this is the best show on UA-cam
Ed's mom hated him because he was a constant reminder of his father (according to Ed). He was a big guy and his mother made him sleep in the basement in the thought of protecting his sisters. I know how it is to feel your mother doesn't care about you. My parents were alcoholics who left me on my own since I was 7. I was abused and neglected. I did not get the medical care I needed because my dad didn't want to waste his poker money on me. I am now a 66 year old mother of 4. I never had any desire to hurt my parents. I recall asking them why they had me if they didn't want me. They just blew me off. We don't get to pick our parents. They don't define us.
I’d like to give props to Scott for mentioning Dr. James Fallon. He is the neuroscientist that discovered his own psychopathy by examining many different pics of other brain anomalies, such as a smaller in size or less functioning amygdalae. He noticed his on his own scan by accident.
Greg, you did good, just want you four to know you’re my favorite. I check in every day to see what up come up with, please do Tom Cruise, and his interview where he jumps on the couch and where he tells the interviewer that he’s being weird. Please!
His mom kept him in the basement so he couldn't molest his sisters which makes you question what happened to her when she was young. My mom had a similar fear but she only had girls so she subjected us to ugly questions and worse when we were kids
As far back as I can remember I've always been polite, please, thank you, etc. It's wasn't until my 30's that my mom told me that when we were very young, she had taken us to the fair every day and treated us with everything we wanted. The last night she wanted to go hang out with her friends and we threw a fit. She yelled at us about being selfish and she did everything for us all week and this was her one time to enjoy herself. Since that very moment we please and thank you'd everything. I don't remember this, I was too young I think, but she said she still feels guilty that her losing her temper basically changed our lives. It was definitely for the good, but to think one incident can change you permanently. It's really crazy to think about
The "bystander effect" story related to Kitty Genovese's murder in 1968 with the :38 witnesses who did nothing" Chase referred to is based on a story created out of whole cloth by the editor of the New York Times, Abe Rosenthal. It has been discredited, even by the NYT which, in 2016, admitted its reporting was "flawed" and the original story "grossly exaggerated the number of witnesses and what they had perceived." In fact, there were witnesses who contacted the police and when the police went to investigate what was going on, they could not find her at first because she had made her way to the back of her apartment building. Eventually she was found and picked up by an ambulance and died on the way to the hospital
@@lindacherubino6033 I read a book about the case a few years ago and I was struck by a comment from her brother that the false narrative actually dehumanized Kitty by refocusing the story on the "witnesses" and not on the tragedy of her horrendous and senseless murder. That's something to remember whenever we talk about "true crime."
@@NicolaMaxwell I mentioned he has a good voice for children’s books. He asked which he should read. I laughed thinking about hearing him do the voice of the Big Bad Wolf in Little Red Riding Hood! Lol
Gentlemen , please do a segment on Jennifer Pan . A 24 y.o. in Canada. She was convicted of murder & attempted murder of her parents . I was riveted by her interrogation . I couldn't stop watching ! Lynn Beck Charlotte NC
I lived in the Santa Cruz area when Kemper was hunting women. It doesn't surprise me that he was successful picking up women, even after multiple murders. Hitchhiking was commonplace, even with guys who looked like serial killers. We never thought it could happen to us.
I grew up there too at that time. It seemed like there werre a lot of serial type killers back then in the Bay Area. Maybe that's why no one hitchhikes like they did back then (myself included a handful of times).

Would it be possible to post links to the original videos that you guys use, please? It helps to be able to watch it unedited first. Thanks!
I hope they look into and do show on dylan rounds. Especially the fathers on heavy D interview. When interviewer asked him what he thought happened and other crucial times he snaps down and left. In this shed where the boy may have been harmed. In this video only he clutches his stomach and leans into it like nerves. Something there.
@Lara Cross don't be silly, I'm talking about cases that are happening in the news right now.

Greg would intimidate me, Chase would trick me, Mark would lull me into a confession, Scott would just plain out smart me,
What is wrong with me that Greg just comes across like such a nice guy? Lol I’m sure he could intimidate the hell outta me - I don’t know him obviously lol - but every time they mention stuff like that I’m like, “really?? Greg would do that??” I think it’s probably because he looks so much like a psychiatrist I saw who was such a nice sweet man - I can’t imagine Greg being vicious lol

Would love to talk to Mark over a beer. He'd be a great pub conversation
Mark's hair would shock me into confession
Sadly I will never not beleive every word Scott says whats that about? I so wouldn't upset Greg
These shows are sooo much better when you replay clips of gestures about which you are discussing!!! Thanks so much for doing this.
Mark, you totally nailed this one with your commentary about holding the two realities. I don’t feel you get recognized for how astute and insightful you are. Bravo!

@@x.miller3053 Precisely!
My older brother was the scapegoat to an emotionally and physically abusive mother. The greatest pain of my life, greater than the pain of my own abuse, is my memory of watching her hurt him. He wasn’t a monster as a child, though many people might call him a monster now. He wanted desperately to be loved by her.
Listening to Ed Kemper makes me very sad.
Ed Kemper in his early years being interviewed in the 1970s & 80s was just a fascinating person for me to watch out of all the serial killers!! I also can't wait for the Behaviour Panel to give their expert opinions of him!!!
The most terrifying thing about Kemper is that he's not terrifying.
He's a wolf 🐺 in psychologist's clothing.
He scares the crap out of ME! When I watched these guys cover Gacy, though, I felt like I was visiting an old friend when I heard him speak. I had to keep shaking myself awake so I could really hear what he was saying. So creepy!
@@katiegwynn4495 Kemper never used to scare me, which is what scares the crap out of me now. I would've bought it hook, line and sinker if I wouldn't know what he did. It's that he seems so self aware and calm when he explains how his mind works
@@katfromthekong414 I know what you mean. I guess I was the same with Gacy .he talked about killing like he would talk about a trip to the store! He spoke so calmly that I wasn't even hearing his messed up stories! I think Kemper is a worse serial killer though. If there is such a thing
@@katfromthekong414 Every comment I've ever read about him, people have always thought he was the most forthright and honest of the serial killers. I'm so glad I'm watching this because it takes the panel to show us the BS that's going on under the veneer. 😳
So, Ed Kemper used to narrate books for the blind, my great grandma was blind, so I grew up on hearing Ed Kempers voice from time to time, and when I grew up and found out who that voice belonged to, it shattered a big part of my childhood lol
It’s so helpful to see a psychopath/sociopath cry, and then have you guys explain it. If you’ve been around these people, it is very confusing to see them cry. It’s a relief to hear they might just be crying about themselves. I never thought of that.
Want a good tip for sussing out narcissists? If you're genuinely crying because someone hurt you, and they say "you're only sorry for yourself," then they're a narcissist projecting their shriveled black heart onto you.
I always enjoy these shows. However, it totally makes my day when one of you forget to unmute. Today's music was perfect. Thanks for the smile.
FINALLY 😍 Oh guys - that’s one of my biggest wishes, whom you should analyze! Looking so much forward to that! Till thursday y‘all. That gonna be a good one! What a great start in the week now! Thanks fab 4 😉🤗
One of my favourite Netflix series is mindhunters and oh my goodness, watching this makes me realise how fantastic the guy who played him is almost identical with his cadence and demeanour.
Great video as always guys ❤
Mind hunters was awesome. Sad they didn't keep going.
Fun fact: that actor was barely tall enough to audition. I'm so glad he was! They gave him lift shoes because he's only 6'5 and Kemper is 6'9.
I like the split screen so we can see the behaviour at the same time as you’re describing it.
exactly!!!
You guys are like the Avengers of body language. You each have a unique specialty.
Chase taught me something (1:05). I didnt know about how we view ourselves in first person when remembering emotions and third for minor remembered events. So cool
Mind hunter series did such a good job of capturing Kemper's mannerisms and thinking too. Behavior Panel is so fascinating!
That actor was AMAZING
Loved the Mind hunter. I only saw one season though. What a story.
@@mikehuff9793 he also played in the movie about Richard Jewell, the security guard falsely accused of planting the bomb at the Atlanta Olympic Games. That story is heartbreaking to me.
@@gracenote1837 thanks imma check that out!!!
Kemper has always been absolutely fascinating to me. And here you guys are just laying it all out. Love it, thank you.
When he tells stories, he reminds me of Diane Downs. His tone, his cadence.
Just a plug for a great actor: Cameron Britton was so incredibly creepy in the role of Ed Kemper on "Mindhunter", that I actually shivered during parts of his performance.
I was in a coma for multiple weeks after my traumatic brain injury, and my memory was practically nonexistent for a while after I emerged. What I remember from that period is a recurring dream, that I was trying to wake up, but "they" kept "pushing me back under" and telling me that I was sleeping and couldn't wake up. I finally "decided for myself" that I was going to wake up anyway, and that's when I started remembering multiple consecutive moments--so this dream reflected reality, only not perfectly. I also have brief memories of my early life that feel like I'm watching home movies taken by my best friend; it's a first-person experience, with a degree or two of separation. Kemper's attitude reminds me of both those experiences, when I almost remember, and want to remember, but can't quite grasp the memory. "Disturbing" is an understated way to put it.
I bet that was and still is scary. I’m sorry you have to go through that.
@@tammycook1475, thank you. It's not as scary as expected, because I have no memory of ever being different; my family has had it much worse than I in that respect.
He got in a car wreck when he was 23 and cannot remember any of his life before the accident. Crazy what our brain can do huh.
Dang! Mindhunter did an amazing job of portraying Kemper.
Wonderful analysis guys.
I loved mindhunter 😊😊
I am SO bummed there is no season 3 of Mind Hunter. :(.
@@sbeddo1 Ikr! Netflix just left us hanging. Season 1 is always worth watching again.
Absolutely. I love that guy!
Was is Ed Kemper that was bribed into giving information by buying Kemper some really nice ladies pumps that he liked to wear? I can't remember, but remember then saying how the killer was really tall.
The irony of Kemper is that everything he hates so much about his mother he has become himself. A great example of this is that he buried a victim's head under the bedroom of his mother so that the victim would look up to the mother because she supposedly liked people looking up to her. Kemper himself absolutely loves his role as a celebrity prisoner, “expert” and people who hang on his every word.
I know this is an old video, but i hope you guys went back after and watched a documentary or something on this guy. There's documentation of many of the things you said you didn't think happened. Like he really did hang out with cops, they knew him, and they never suspected him until he turned himself in. Even then, they thought it was a bad joke, he had to actually convince them that it was really him. He's really fascinating to learn about.
Don’t know this guy but very scary guy. Love all of your comments and insight, I watch the behavior panel religiously, find it absolutely fascinating. The best thing on UA-cam. You are fascinating men to listen to. Each one of you very charming as well. Great Team, Great work
I love seeing the part of the video with the behavior you're referencing as you talk about it. Makes it so much more understandable. Great insight as always!
Yes. Nice editing job!
I've seen and read so much about Ed Kemper, I can't wait to see your take. He always came across as so friendly 🙄
Excited for this one! 🙌
Watch actor Cameron Britton(umbrella academy) played Kemper on Mind Hunter, phenomenal job! You actually end up liking and thinking you're actually watching Kemper. Great job guys!
My new fave! You guys, I love the new tricks you're using to help us follow what you're assessing like when Greg lip syncs what Ed Kemper is saying, when Chase explained why people do nothing and when you highlight portions of the tape while you're explaining body language. So fascinating.
I've heard you guys talk about culture many times. Well, the past is also another country. I would have been a teenager when all this was happening. I can remember a constant stream of documentaries and articles with 'experts' blaming mothers for the worst aspects of male violence. It's where I first heard the word 'overbearing'. Mothers were too mean, too doting, too distant, too close, too neglectful, too protective. The mother story played right into the social zeitgeist and demonstrated to those same 'experts' that he was just as knowledgeable as they were. The young Kemper used to break into the prison psychiatrist's files to see what other sick individuals had done, how they were caught, how they justified their crimes. He left prison that first time fully armed with everything he needed to know to accomplish what came next.
Exactly, people and experts that think that criminals get locked up and come out better are kidding themselves. There the few exceptions (I don’t like using broad brushes), but in general criminals pick up more tricks from others that are locked up as well.
Locking people in cages with others like them and how do you think they are going to come out?
To be fair, Kemper really did hang out in police bars, most notable The Jury Room. There's even a plaque that talks about his history in the bar itself where he was known as "Big Ed". I love the show! However, I do wish you guys would read a quick history about the suspect as I've noticed that you sometimes dispute facts that are actually well known to various cases, and these rebuttals have nothing to do with their body language. For instance, Scott saying the cops, "Would've caught onto him" and "this guy is asking a lot of questions, let's talk to him!" That's absolutely what would happen today because of the profiles of people like Kemper and statistics indicating that the perpetrator of a crime is more likely to be interested and/or interfere with the investigation. This was the 70's! They didn't have the benefit of 50 years of hindsight through which we view the case today, and everybody was talking about the case at the time in the area. It just seems like you guys have a tendency to say "that didn't happen" sometimes when there's no relation to body language whatsoever, and it can undermine the validity of factual statements that you do make. Not asking you to be forensic or case experts, but a little familiarity with the case, even barebones facts, would bolster the rest of the analysis and make a stronger case for body language without erroneous assertions detracting from the discourse.
Damn! I was in The Jury Room once. Drive by it but never knew. Have to check that out. Thx! Not a bar type guy, but thats worth a stop and a brewski. See ya on the Boardwalk dude.
To be honest, Ed would have played these 4 like pianos. They are totally under estimating him. There's a reason SO many girls wrongly trusted him, and why he turned himself in, after finally killing his mother. Ed was one F'd up individual, but he wasn't dumb.
I've seen a couple interviews with Kemper, and he actually addresses people talking too much about a case, whether it be by asking an unusual amount of questions or just showing interest. He said he actually went out of his way not to talk about the murders happening in the community. Because he knew that was one of the things police used to zero in on suspects. So, he was ahead of the curve even by 1970's standards.
Good point.
Ed is so smart and methodical.
I am so freaking excited for this one! My favorite UA-cam channel!
Yay!🙂👍
I'm happy that the BP reiterated that psychopaths do not come with warning labels. A person's encounter with an anti-social, personality type might not be, thankfully, on the level of Ed Kemper; however, if one gets involved with an asocial person, he or she will not walk away unscathed. Thanks for another great show!
Chase, it was so nice to see your wedding photos on FB, and delightful to see that you had the entire team in the wedding! It is so special that you found each other and it is a true friendship. Wishing you many years and happy memories with your wife, and with your team of conspirators in the Behavior Panel!!❤
This is why I don’t agree with people that say teenagers that murder shouldn’t spend the rest of their lives in prison. If he had stayed in prison from 15 on all those lives he took would still be here. All the pain he caused would’ve ended with the grandparents death.
I was the scapegoat for an emotionally and physically abusive narcissistic mother. Her facade to friends and others was gracious, and even indulgent toward me. She forced me to perform as though this was the truth. She was a monster, but I felt for her, I knew she was traumatised by her parents. She projected all her fury, self loathing and worthlessness into me. It became mine, thats the way I felt about myself. I used to lie awake at night and imagine killing her- when I desperately wished to love her, and be loved by her. I hated myself for these feelings of violence- I knew it was wrong. The fury, self loathing and feeling of worthlessness expressed itself internally- I took drugs, self harmed, dissociated, my nervous system collapsed, my posture twisted, I attempted suicide rather than express outwards. Maybe he was a psychopath to start with, I wasnt. I had some insight into what was going on. To get Jungian for a sec, I had no choice but to take on her shadow material, it drove me, it was like a "demon", and I also had to deal with my own. There is a part of me that wishes I could have just expelled it all upon other people, but I couldnt do that- I knew what it felt like. Instead, I became over empathetic and other exploiters seemed to have a radar for my own low self worth to take advantage of. Its been a long road of healing, Im still not there, dont know if I'll ever be.
🫂 💐 Wishing you healing and brighter days ✨️
@@pennyp7382 thankyou
The fact that you have a great insight into why she did that and also how it affected you and your future relationships is quite remarkable and even admirable. You should be extremely proud of yourself for coming through all that and not using it as an excuse to turn on others. You are more amazing than you realise. Take good care of yourself and keep on your path of healing. I wish you the best xx
I’m on the same path friend and I’ve never had it in me to harm anyone else. All the the best to you going forward.
kudos to you! it's tough to feel like a functional adult after going through that. i'm sorry to hear that you suffered this sort of abuse. it's very impressive that you have such insight now, looking back. your mother shouldn't have been allowed to raise you... i agree about abusive childhoods do not create murders. (related, but i don't want to repeat myself: see my comment above as a reply under a comment started by @Phyllis Kloeckner.)
Oooo this is going to be interesting. Did you guys watch Mind Hunters? That actor played him so well!
They did a show about serial killers, and he was a character. called Mind Hunter. 2 seasons. The guy who played him did a fantastic job.
Chase you hit the nail on the head when you said he didn’t know what to do without her. It’s so true
What I heard from the documentary was the mental hospital advised against him going to live with his mom upon release
I love when Scott gets riled up
Seeing a two hour video from TBP and I'm like, "hell yeah!!!" Always enjoy these videos, you guys are fascinating.
I like this format where we can watch the subject while you describe what you are seeing.
Also, how am I supposed to get anything done. The Behavior Panel is the best show around. When you guys upload a video, I get so excited and watching y’all together just makes my day.
I just wanna say I love you guys!!! My fav UA-cam Channel now!!!
The opposite of love isn’t hate, it’s indifference, when you could care less what happens to the other person
Edmund Jr. (this mans adult father) later stated that "suicide missions in wartime and the atomic bomb testings were nothing compared to living with [Clarnell(this mans mother)]" and that she affected him "more than three hundred and ninety-six days and nights of fighting on the front did."[9]
In my opinion if an adult man who has seen a year or more of war time describes her influence that way on him, just in regard to living together, it is worth sincere investigation into the claim that her influence played a prominant role on her young male child who has not seen war, cannot defend or protect himself and is at her mercy.
All of you guys the greatest. But Chase is the cutest. Can you imagine being one of his kids and getting “the lecture” about emptying the garbage bin as an example of the “bystander effect”? I think those kids’ biggest dopamine rush is laughter in the hallway after that!
Yeah, if I had to choose from the guys I'd marry Chase.
That is so true Mark. Narcissist punish those who don't flatter them.
The unstated context not mentioned by our panel is that Kemper was a major part of the FBIs first serious attempt at serial killer profiling. At this point in his life he already had the feedback that not only was his participation valuable but it resulted in a success.
I think a lot of the blame the panel attributes to duping is better explained through this context. The things he is saying is a parroted version of what the serial killer profile concluded and this profile was new and exciting. Kemper's ego and desire to be an intellectual authority is manifesting this behavior moreso than the desire to be duplicitous, in my opinion. Everything he says about cause and effect is well known now and comes across as comically obvious but was a revelation for its day. And he was a source of that revelation!
"I only got through the first ten minutes of Game of Thrones -"- Yeah, Mark !
I didn't even get that far.
I didnt watch that show either. Hehe
When he got out after he killed his grandparents they told his mom to stay away away from him and for him to stay away from her. His mom did not listen or care about why they said it. His mom used to blame him because she couldn't get laid all the time. His mom and grandma were very horrible to him and others. They put him down physically, verbally, mentally. When abuse is all you know that's usually what you become. It was definitely more than basic discipline that messed him up very young. I'd say the hitting him in the head numerous times did something to his head. Head injuries and trauma are a constant tie with serial killers.
All according to him
This is my favorite one you’ve done yet! I’m watching the best in the world, but I also feel like I’m watching friends (of each other, I’m not that lonely) & this man is a fascinating study. The things we wouldn’t know about serial K-ers w/o his brutal honesty/ego.
On as less important note, I like the pointing. It’s a fun way make it flow fast. Also, it’s hysterical in the comments when the squares are in a different order. People lose their minds. Like it will throw the stars out of alignment if Chase and Mark aren’t side by side. It’s silly, but you are beloved & it’s a comfort thing.I don’t mind a change of pace once in a while.
Keep up the awesome!
The End
You guys are like the Beatles of behavioral and body language analysis. Greg is definitely John, Scott is Paul, Chase is George and Mark is Ringo. The fab four! Keep up the good work!
Loved the humor, Greg! It was nice to see that side of you and it helps this horror go down.
Fun Fact. Kemper had recorded over 5000 hrs of audio books for blind people. He's read 100's of books that have allowed blind people to experience books. He's actually won awards for doing so many. Upon receiving them he said, "I can't begin to tell you what this has meant to me, to be able to do something constructive for someone else, to be appreciated by so many people, the good feeling it gives me after what I have done."
Prosecutor Ariadne Symons said, "We don't care how much of a model prisoner he is because of the enormity of his crimes."Kemper waived his right to a hearing again in 2012. He was denied parole in 2017 and is next eligible in 2024.
Interesting - looking at wiki this stopped in 2015 when he suffered a stroke and was declared medically disabled. How strange to be listening to an audio book, enjoying the voice etc and then realising it’s a serial killer.
It’s his ego being stroked do you not realise that? Don’t be so easily fooled 😂
@@Knobblytyressoggysocks theres one small portion of the audio from the book read by Ed Kemper . "Flowers in the Attic" its jus some few seconds ..u can find it at yt.
@@TatianadeSaPiresA creepy book narrated by Ed Kemper? Think I'll pass...
One of your best!👊🎖️
I remember reading about Kemper and the time he was visited my a lone FBI agent.
The agent was interviewing serial killers for their new Behaviour Science dept at Quantico.
He was alone with Kemper in a closed cell and Kemper saw the agent was nervous said to him 'the guards won't get here in time'.
The agent said 'we (the fbi) don't send us with out protection', Kemper replyed ' do you have a poison pen or something?'
The Agent said nothing and Kemper contined answering the agent's question.
That’s really something.
I keep watching and rewatching this one. This is the best one yet. I learned so much from this episode. Thanks guys. 🥰
I thought it was interesting what Mark said about if you feed his ego you don't get killed. I use to know a clear cut psychopath who hung around where I use to work. He took a liking to me as I was someone who expressed a lot of curiosity in people. He was a DANGEROUS guy with many criminal convictions. A whisker from hardcore violence and extremely volatile. The second he realises you're not a threat he toys with you or manipulates you. To what Mark said you feel the only thing you can do is flood them with compliments, like "wow you've slept with that many women?" or "That's so cool how you randomly beat that guy up". Then just hope he leaves you alone
This was the PBS show that, in 1984, shook me at 15 years old. I had never seen anything like it before and it intrigued me and terrified me at the same time. I was hooked on true crime after that. My mom had those campy True Detective magazines under her bed because she didn’t want me reading them at 10 and 12 years old, but I found them and sneaked and read them under the sheets with a flashlight. I think both of these kinda warped me at a very young age.
Weird thing is, in the documentary when he was talking about how he couldn’t get a gf as a young man, I wondered why not, because he wasn’t a bad looking guy, and he was obviously very bright. I probably would’ve given him a first date . . . . and never been seen or heard from again.
There are plenty of people who were raised in bad situations like that that did not go around killing their parents, grandparents and others.
Sure, but.. this is Ed Kemper.
43:15 -
I am not a medical professional nor have any qualifications other than to have studied this superficially. To differentiate:
Narcissism is not an Anti Social Personality Disorder (ASPD)
Sociopathy is an Anti Social Personality Disorder (ASPD)
Psychopathy is an Anti Social Personality Disorder (ASPD)
All Psychopaths are Narcissists.
All Narcissists are not Psychopaths or Sociopaths by default but may be one, or other, or neither.
Sociopaths may or may not be Narcissists.
Therefore to say Ed Kemper is a Psychopath and therefore a Narcissist, and has ASPD is a correct statement.
But to say Ed Kemper is a Narcissist and therefore has ASPD is incorrect and illogical. He has ASPD because he is a Psychopath, not because he is a Narcissist. He happens to be both. This distinction is important.
People are born as Psychopaths not made. If a Psychopath had a normal, loving childhood, he /she may never harm others. It is the combination of being born a Psychopath and having a terrible childhood that may turn someone very dangerous to others. Psychopaths have no ability to feel empathy and remorse.
Sociopaths are made by bad environments. They were not born that way but developed into a twisted human. So a Sociopath will always harm someone. Sociopaths have a limited, albeit weak, ability to feel empathy and remorse.
Narcissists can feel emotional pain, but not usually in the same way as others. The emotional pain they may feel is usually related to underlying selfish needs. Underneath the displays of superiority and sense of entitlement, they often feel empty, powerless, and shameful, which they perceive as weakness.
I’m loving this channel. Clearly Scott, Greg, Mark, and Chase are among the best of the best in this field. Very impressive credentials and their work speaks for itself.
I’m a classically trained pianist and music teacher, and as a performer I think mindfulness of one’s body movements/body language can have an impact (positive or negative) on the musician’s performance.
And also working with students. Again, really enjoying these videos.
Fantastic analysis as always; thanks, you beautiful guys ❤
The “help, help” from Mark at the end cracks me up every time! I always watch to the very end just to hear it 😂😂
is that mark? i thought it was greg or scott?
He was also trusted in administrating psychological tests within the prison and learned how to present himself to the prison officials.
He said in another interview that the only murder he felt bad about was that of Aiko Koo because she talked about her plans for the future. She's the one who unlocked the car door for him after he locked himself out.
I had never heard of EK. Watched this analysis, and then found a documentary on him...whoa, this guy did horrific things..thanks for another great video, gentlemen!
They have zero clue on Kemper
@@John-qu9zd yeah the only footage they have is after he was incarcerated so they can’t get a good baseline behavior of him. I’m sure they would be singing a different tune if they could’ve gotten a solid baseline. At least they admit that there’s no absolutes but I think they forgot to mention that in this particular video. Hahahahaha
Scott, Ed Kemper hung out with Cops all the time at the Santa Cruz Station and their Bar the Jury room. I lived in Santa Cruz and Aptos near him. He was a Police fixture.
The cops didn't suspect him. He hung around with them in one of the "cop bars" regularly, they let him come on patrols with them in their patrol cars ... they even thought he was joking when he called to confess and to turn himself in.... Saw a documentary not too long ago. The police officers that were interviewed still sounded shocked.. they never thought him to be a bad guy. Weird but not dangerous
This will be good!
💯💯
Why would this be good ? Ed Kemper turned himself in and told the truth and we know that as fact.
What deception is there to detect ?
@@Fnstine It's "Behaviour Panel" not "Deception Panel".

I requested this one, so TY. Mother destroyed his self esteem, I believe. Most interesting of all true crime cases, in my opinion.
She locked in the basement from the time he was 8. Idk if she was a horrible person or if she seen something in him that made her think she needed to protect his sisters from him. I’ve always wondered that.
I read an interview with Kemper ages ago. His words, in print, sounded very angry; I imagined he was snarling at the reporter. Hearing his voice knocked me for a loop; he doesn't sound dangerous at all (even though he did heinous, violent things).
This has been the creepiest and most educational Behavioural Panel video I have watched to date. It illuminates. Thank you for your work.
What a lunatic. "I'd just gone through a horrible experience killing her"
Poor him
I know, right?
Exactly. It’s all about him.
I have never heard a killer speak like he's the victim like this before, it's absolutely disgusting. Gives me chills.
What Kempers mother destroyed that was important to him was his own sense of worth as I remember reading that she used to lock him in the basement and constantly criticize and humiliate him telling him that no college girl would ever date the likes of him. I think he may have felt she valued them instead of her own son.
Sure she did, she tortured him she was a sadistic piece of ...., but still, no excuse to kill people.

Lol
The actor who played Kemper on the Netflix show did it so well. Creepy af.
Kemper had a high IQ. and he could get inside any interviewers head. He liked to intelligently "dance" with the interviewer, Kemper always led,, and he liked making them feel small. Even though anyone would feel small standing next to a 6'9" monster.
I think if he had killed his Mother first he would have never killed anyone else.
He was acting out killing his Mother with every murder. That's my opinion.
Every time I hear, “I don’t know much about this case”... And I know too much about ALL these true crime cases I laugh. 😅 So much to unpack about Ed but what always amazes me is the disbelief of the police when he called to confess his crimes.
I heard one of your entro's with Scott's whistling mixed with electronic rap...it sounded amazing.. Keep up all your good works, this is the best show on UA-cam
Ed's mom hated him because he was a constant reminder of his father (according to Ed).
He was a big guy and his mother made him sleep in the basement in the thought of protecting his sisters.
I know how it is to feel your mother doesn't care about you. My parents were alcoholics who left me on my own since I was 7. I was abused and neglected. I did not get the medical care I needed because my dad didn't want to waste his poker money on me.
I am now a 66 year old mother of 4. I never had any desire to hurt my parents. I recall asking them why they had me if they didn't want me. They just blew me off.
We don't get to pick our parents. They don't define us.
I’d like to give props to Scott for mentioning Dr. James Fallon. He is the neuroscientist that discovered his own psychopathy by examining many different pics of other brain anomalies, such as a smaller in size or less functioning amygdalae. He noticed his on his own scan by accident.
One of the best shows.
Congratulations Chase and Sarah!!!💕🎉
..to what? 🫢
@@e.sjolund4011 They got married!
Fascinating. Thank you for this analysis.
Out of all of the serial killers that I’ve watched you guys and other people talk about this one really made me feel unsettled!!!
Greg, you did good, just want you four to know you’re my favorite. I check in every day to see what up come up with, please do Tom Cruise, and his interview where he jumps on the couch and where he tells the interviewer that he’s being weird. Please!
His mom kept him in the basement so he couldn't molest his sisters which makes you question what happened to her when she was young. My mom had a similar fear but she only had girls so she subjected us to ugly questions and worse when we were kids
Had he tried something on his sisters or was she just paranoid and/or traumatized?
@@janrasch1627 she was paranoid & crazy herself.
@@janrasch1627 he hadn't tried anything with them,that was a product of his mom's paranoia or trauma
As far back as I can remember I've always been polite, please, thank you, etc. It's wasn't until my 30's that my mom told me that when we were very young, she had taken us to the fair every day and treated us with everything we wanted. The last night she wanted to go hang out with her friends and we threw a fit. She yelled at us about being selfish and she did everything for us all week and this was her one time to enjoy herself. Since that very moment we please and thank you'd everything. I don't remember this, I was too young I think, but she said she still feels guilty that her losing her temper basically changed our lives. It was definitely for the good, but to think one incident can change you permanently. It's really crazy to think about
There is a good interview of Ed Kemper in the 1982 documentary "The Killing of America". This was never commercially released in the US until 2016.
Fantastic video Thanks❤
The "bystander effect" story related to Kitty Genovese's murder in 1968 with the :38 witnesses who did nothing" Chase referred to is based on a story created out of whole cloth by the editor of the New York Times, Abe Rosenthal. It has been discredited, even by the NYT which, in 2016, admitted its reporting was "flawed" and the original story "grossly exaggerated the number of witnesses and what they had perceived." In fact, there were witnesses who contacted the police and when the police went to investigate what was going on, they could not find her at first because she had made her way to the back of her apartment building. Eventually she was found and picked up by an ambulance and died on the way to the hospital
@@lindacherubino6033 I read a book about the case a few years ago and I was struck by a comment from her brother that the false narrative actually dehumanized Kitty by refocusing the story on the "witnesses" and not on the tragedy of her horrendous and senseless murder. That's something to remember whenever we talk about "true crime."
Oh Scott is going to be so excited w this one!😂👏
🤣🤣🤣 I hope he gets a giggle during this! Scotts accent is magnificent! Wish he'd do audio books lol
@@NicolaMaxwell I mentioned he has a good voice for children’s books. He asked which he should read. I laughed thinking about hearing him do the voice of the Big Bad Wolf in Little Red Riding Hood! Lol

I was riveted by her interrogation . I couldn't stop watching ! Lynn Beck Charlotte NC
Yes! Thanks Scott, Greg, Mark and Chase! ✨️
I lived in the Santa Cruz area when Kemper was hunting women. It doesn't surprise me that he was successful picking up women, even after multiple murders. Hitchhiking was commonplace, even with guys who looked like serial killers. We never thought it could happen to us.
I grew up there too at that time. It seemed like there werre a lot of serial type killers back then in the Bay Area. Maybe that's why no one hitchhikes like they did back then (myself included a handful of times).
Mark, ignore the haters 🌼🌼
