Because remember, the FBI didn't create a serial killer task force profiling unit until the late 70s.
Jay DyerHOST
3:11
But we're supposed to think that all the serial killers are just Ted Bundy, Charles Manson, Henry Lee Lucas, Jeffrey Badonkadonk, and then, you know, a selection of other archetypal patterns.
Jay DyerHOST
3:29
But that's a created pattern and archetype that is not true.
Jay DyerHOST
3:31
And we're going to see this first with Jeffrey Badonkadonk.

How Jeff knew the number to call and who to talk to is unknown.
speaker_2NARRATOR
99:13
What is known is this is not the first time a past, present, or future serial killer has gotten positive attention from those holding office.
Jay DyerHOST
99:21
Yeah, this is again another pattern that people have noted with the serial killers, particularly Henry Lee Lucas to the Bush administration, to Ted Bundy, because Ted Bundy was a rising GOP star.

GeorgiaHOST

Many years later, they would be exonerated of this crime, but it ruined their lives.
GeorgiaHOST
6:57
You've also got convicted serial killer Henry Lee Lucas, who I do intend to do a whole video on eventually, but he was convicted of the murders of his mother and two others, Kate Rich and Becky Powell, in 1983.
GeorgiaHOST
7:10
Over the next few decades, Lucas would confess to hundreds of other murders, earning him the nickname of the Confession Killer.
GeorgiaHOST
7:17
But it is often considered that he was much more of a pathological liar than he was a prolific serial killer.

The therapist always had an answer.
GeorgiaHOST
26:51
Even when it was found that Bergwall had rock-solid alibis to some of the crimes, he would still be convicted.
GeorgiaHOST
26:58
It was easier to say it was him and close a case than continue the search, very similar to the Henry Lee Lucas case.
GeorgiaHOST
27:05
In one case, he confessed to the killing of a woman in Norway in 1985, claiming that he had sex with her, even though it was very, very well known that he was gay.
EmilyHOST
49:43
Yeah, like in the Chicago Rippers cases, like now this is just a bunch of different guys.
EmilyHOST
49:48
But then you'll have like, oh, what the fuck was his name? Henry Lee Lucas.
EmilyHOST
49:53
Oh,
SaraHOST
49:54
yeah.
Brian PosehnGUEST
29:39
And we had these l- you know.
Brian PosehnGUEST
29:40

ChadHOST
5:47
Yeah, I mean, they can get people off.
ChadHOST
5:49
I don't know too much about that case, but I know in the cases of people like Jeffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy, Otis Toole, Henry Lee Lucas, they admittedly said themselves, and I mean, they'll say that they're not reliable, but that they were part of networks that were committing contract killings and cult killings as well.
ChadHOST
6:13
And some of the times where you see things like where Jeffrey Dahmer would have had in order to commit two murders, he would have had to commit a murder, like get into his car and drive it like 80 miles an hour to the location of the second murder and be there within like 20 minutes or something and then commit a second murder.
ChadHOST
6:34
It seems like a lot of these that they're kind of tying up a lot of loose ends with a lot of the celebrity serial killers where they do have some killings, or at least they're taking part in some killings, but then a whole bunch of other killings are just piled on top.
ChadHOST
6:49
Some of these people like Henry Lee Lucas, who was pardoned by George Bush.
BonnieHOST
6:55
Just to clarify, you're saying that you think like some of these people might be like people, a whole bunch of murder victims that were murder victims of maybe a whole bunch of different people.
BonnieHOST
7:03
And like they just put it all in one guy.

I mean, the Beast of Belgium case with Mark Dutro, if anyone looks into that, I mean, that was huge, where this guy who was supposedly unemployed, like handyman owned like seven houses and uh was caught he was a serial killer and again he was he's shown to be like a lone nut sort of like uh you know ted bundy and john wayne gacy and jeffrey dahmer but i

The NATO conference where Dr. Naret dropped this bombshell was held in 1975.
Jay DyerHOST
54:22
Strangely enough, the very next month, in August 1975, serial killer Henry, Henry Lee Lucas was released early from prison to begin his eight-year reign of terror.
Jay DyerHOST
54:31
Henry Lee Lucas spent four and a half years in these mental wards.
Jay DyerHOST
54:35
Throughout that time, he received intensive drug electroshock treatments.
Jay DyerHOST
54:39
It's 100% MKUltra type stuff.
Jay DyerHOST
54:44
And of course, Henry Lee Lucas went on forever doing this with, I think the Bush administration even helped him get out at one point.
Jay DyerHOST
54:52
Remember that? I think they pardoned him or something like that.
Jay DyerHOST
54:56
Going from memory, there's a news reel about that.
Steve StocktonHOST
301:13
This 17 to 30-year-old Jane Doe's partial remains were discovered in Yosemite's Summit Meadow along Glacier Point Road in 1983.
Steve StocktonHOST
301:23
Jane Doe's cause of death was human foul play, and the suspect in this case was serial killer Henry Lee Lucas, who was interviewed by authorities in 1980 and eventually died in prison in 2001.
Steve StocktonHOST
301:36
He knew facts about Jane Doe's case that were never revealed to the public and could only be known by the guilty party, so it was reasonable to believe that he was responsible for her death.
Steve StocktonHOST
301:46
Jane Doe's identity remains unknown despite the information given by Henry Lee Lucas before his death.
Steve StocktonHOST
301:52
He stated that in the early 1980s he had picked up a female hitchhiker on Highway 41 somewhere between Fresno, California and Yosemite National Park.
Steve StocktonHOST
302:01
He said she was 5'5" or 5'6" and weighed approximately 100 to 125 pounds.
Mike HodgePANELIST
22:02
But, like, as soon as he was caught, it was like, "Oh yeah, I did all of this," and then they start adding to it.
Mike HodgePANELIST
22:08
Henry Lee Lucas, uh, Pee Wee Gaskins, they love to embellish their stories and talk about how much they got away with so that they can keep the spotlight on them.
Mike HodgePANELIST
22:19
Um, and I mean, that's absolutely true of just our society at large.
Mike HodgePANELIST
22:24
I think everyone should read the book.
Matt MurphyGUEST
48:32
And then we got another kind of weird thing about serial killers.
Matt MurphyGUEST
48:34
There's a guy named Henry Lee Lucas in Texas.
Matt MurphyGUEST
48:37
Oh, yeah.
Matt MurphyGUEST
48:38
He committed, he was confessing to murders he did not commit all across
Jay DyerHOST
50:04
But anyway, this is a very common theme.
Jay DyerHOST
50:06
Henry Lee Lucas, another one that allegedly was... perhaps a contract killer directly tied according to him to the matamoros cult which was a brownsville texas satanic cult uh had connections to cartels had connections to i think later like sent on what they cartel stuff so these serial killers they often are operating by the way in california florida and texas that's like the hotbeds of serial killer phenomenon for whatever reason.
Jay DyerHOST
50:41
I'm not saying they're all Satanists.
Jay DyerHOST
50:42
I'm just saying that there's a pretty consistent pattern.

I can't make sense of it.
Jay DyerHOST

Let's see.
Jay DyerHOST

Jay DyerHOST

The artwork of the serial killers itself is like its own hellish nightmare world.
