Psychopathic Predator (Part 2): The Horrific Crimes of Nathaniel Bar-Jonah

WILDCIDE

Nathaniel Benjamin Levi Bar-Jonah, born David Paul Brown, was born in 1957 in Worcester, Massachusetts. Beginning with many troubles in his early life, much of his upbringing remains shrouded in obscurity. What we do know is that it became evident early on in his life that there would be a pattern of violence that spanned a lifetime. With him collecting his first victim, a 5-year-old girl, when he was only 7 years old. Bar-Jonah, despite slipping through the cracks of an imperfect judicial system, was a brutal child predator who was allowed to haunt the American landscape in the latter half of the 20th century. While the full extent of his crimes may never be known, evidence suggests that Bar-Jonah is believed to be responsible for the innumerable crimes against children involving kidnapping, torture, sexual assault and murder. Hang out with us as we finish up this grizzly case to involve gruesome findings in Bar-Jonah's home, a trail and convictions. FINALLY. Don't miss the interview with Forensic Psychologist Dr. Jay Toomey and we explore forensic evaluations and, more specifically, psychopathy. Interview drops Friday 6/21.
