About this episode

Ed Kemper is a serial killer who murdered 10 people. His victims included his grandparents and mother. Kemper is a huge man at 6'9" and almost 300 pounds. After being incarcerated, Kemper talked to the FBI about the reasons for committing his murders. This information greatly propelled the FBI profiling unit. The sessions played a large role in the first season of the hit Netflix series Mindhunter.

Join Mike and Gibby for the 100th TCATT episode as they discuss the life and crimes of Ed Kemper. Kemper had a miserable childhood and he grew to hate his mother. This hatred for his mother, coupled with violent sexual fantasies, would fuel his desire to murder.
