Serial Killer Pen Pals.
Manage episode 387711046 series 3471871
Ever wonder what goes on in the minds of serial killers? Join us today as we pull back the curtain on the eerie world of Keith Jesperson, better known as the "Happy Face Killer". We trace his dark childhood, marred by violence and abuse, and speculate how these early experiences could have nudged him down a sinister path. We also analyze a disquieting exchange of letters between Jesperson and another alleged killer, Rex Heuermann. With their disturbing messages and potential motives, these correspondences paint a chilling portrait of these murderers' mindset.
From pet abuse to arson, we take a hard look at the warning signs of a budding serial killer. Commonalities such as antisocial tendencies and substance abuse get under our scrutiny as we delve deeper into the psyche of these dangerous individuals. Our journey into Jesperson's life doesn't stop at his childhood. We delve into his unsuccessful stint with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and his strange connection with Rex Heuermann. Our discussion takes a turn when we bring up the false confession made by a woman named Laverne Pavlina and her abusive boyfriend, who claimed to have killed one of Jesperson's victims.
Finally, we examine how Jesperson's daughter, Melissa Moore has forged a brave future. As a successful author, podcaster and speaker. She uses her platform to raise awareness and support for survivors of trauma and violent crimes.
