Just a small correction for authenticity, it is funny to see that whilst the case plays in Austria, all the uniformed officers at the beginning, crime lab, house search, etc. do wear German batches on their sleeves ;-) and they do look completely different from the Austrian batches. So if you reenact old cases, don't mix up the Germans with the Austrians ;-)

[@darlenecuker9711]

Aurea Draconis patches or badges, not batches. Hope that helps.

Why would you kill someone who’s doing a dam favor?

[@JaneDoe-rj4jn]

There was a case in Japan not that long ago where a man was convicted of killing and cannibalizing a college co-Ed. His father was a high up political figure and I don’t think he ended up spending time in jail. Instead what does the Japanese public do!? They made him a celebrity! He hosted cooking shows, talk shows, was this novelty star. The public’s reaction was just as disturbing as this mans crime itself. I think his name was Issei Sagawa.

[@JaneDoe-rj4jn]

Jeezus it’s worse than I thought. I knew about the tv guest appearances but not the mingling with women, the perverse cartoon publications and his urges still. That is messed up Japan.

@Josh Thanks for the link, which I've just opened to watch. It started with "The following content has been identified by the KZbin community as inappropriate or offensive to some audiences", so I had to acknowledge that before it opened. Hmmm, I'm squeamish, so I'll see how it goes...;-/

[@Maxbps88]

The very concept that serial murderers is an expressly USA has always been insane to me. We have had serial murderers for centuries. And they are on every continent, in every race, and among every culture.

[@Alicia-BG]

Just got 15 years for murder? SMH! Killers and pedophiles should automatically get life in prison!

[@bobbygrey6722]

How 'bout, public hanging in the town square?

[@turkmcgurken310]

The opening theme is an absolute treat. Great synths.

[@sannibird8695]

Hearing all that fake German really makes me cringe. Not just the heavy accents, but they are actually talking jibberish. Why can't ppl use native speakers for shooting episodes like that? There are plenty around.

[@joy9073]

How the heck did he get a vise to come to USA,specially back then? Visas weren't granted to those that had just an arrest, and he was a freaking criminal with a record and prison time. Smh

[@kaylizzie7890]

If they hadn’t let him out of prison, 11 women would still be alive. I hope the Austrian public felt ashamed of their foolishness.

[@india239]

Am I the only person getting a sinking feeling about that police ride along? We’re the cops super-dum, was the killer bright? Probably both. What a mess

[@Wisteria901]

You get a sinking feeling about the ride along because you are watching this video about murders that he committed. The police didn’t have such luxury. They had to trust paperworks, otherwise journalists would complain about them..

[@joansmith3296]

We in the USA are so used to sophisticated methods of police investigation its hard to believe other countries don't have the same techniques at their disposal. The FBI has so much experience chasing down guys like this.

[@NoBootyBeauty]

You hit the nail on the head: the FBI has SO MUCH EXPERIENCE. Because serial killers aren't as rife in other parts of the world. Duh.

[@jamesl9371]

Thank goodness for science and good police work. The FBI is amazing

[@morningglory3681]

Some can be, I agree. They don't do that without the prayers of praying Americans like me though. God can do anything through prayer and all is possible with God. When they start going bad, I asked God, nevrmind.

[@MadCatTex]

The FBI guy who introduces the show has the ear lobes so big that looks like is wearing earrings

He has the a Ted Bundy character.

[@leslindsouza7758]

Exactly what I felt as well!!

Thinking the same Austrian Ted Bundy. Even their childhood is kind of similar unhappy.

Justice has been served keep up the good work

[@someonesomewhere1600]

I think I'll stop reading comments. People are so sure of themselves whether making assertions regarding psychology, sociology, pathology etc. And this is a TV show that you can bet is not totally accurate. I'm not defending this guy. He was a cold-blooded killer. What I am saying is how easily people are manipulated even at the very moment they are writing about a manipulator. Without all the facts in front of you, this is just entertainment that's a decent approximation of actuality. Don't treat it like an evidence file and don't just go along with what other parrots are saying.

[@BlueIvysAssistant]

What sucks is that because Jack died before he could appeal the verdict, it was never legally valid. Thus, according to Austrian law, Unterweger is to be regarded as innocent.

[@jaftathateng5197]

Why was the man paroled , the retired cop suspected something , but was ignored . Justice is sometimes blind . RSA , Jaftà.

[@philfluther2713]

Truth is stranger than fiction, 'The Night of the Generals'.

[@danielleoldfield5952]

I'm sure he was a nice guy, sweet, charming, and great with words (He was a writer). It seems something all these killers have in common, then again if he looked like a creep, dressed like a homeless person, and spoke like a slob, he wouldn't have pulled all his murders off, because no one would go near them. Evil doesn't come with a tail, horns and a pitch fork.

[@GoofyGufz]

the actor acted as Johan is overacting and the way he want to look worried make him looks wanna cry so its bad acting, serial killer wouldn't be acted like wimpy like that

[@DavidBrown-jk2pm]

GoofyGuzz. I'm sure we will all alert the police and media on your discovery.

[@derickxo]

This freaking guy was at the exact places the murder took place??! GIANT RED FLAG 🚩

[@jamesdyer9765]

He would do anything to get the story.

[@cymbolichuman433]

The point is they do not want to get caught. Certain murderous scenarios should be granted the death penalty, because society is paying for a monster to live in prison.

[@mchjsosde]

Look up how much it costs the government to put someone on death row :/ rehabilitation for as many people as possible is something to keep in mind. Of course I agree some people should never be released again.

[@landang7906]

I suggest the person making the subtitles to get the names right, even if it's the name of a killer. Here, sometimes it's onto Vegas (31:05) sometimes it's Jack Hunter Vega (31:11) and then it becomes Jack underweigher (31:39) . If you have to type fast just use initials. I noticed this in other Real Crimes episodes for other names too and not only for names of criminals. PS : At 37:15 it is "underweight" :D :D :D

[@drock4912]

Stunning?? That dudes haircut at the the Vicap office is stunning!! Dafuq?!! Lol

[@nicholeclark3478]

Someone doesnt just end up on the best seller list. He did something bad to get out of prison. He made a pact and sold his soul.. The only way to become "celebrity"...especially from jail.

[@JulieDeuxFois]

I'd like to know where to go to sell my soul

[@helloitsme9808]

Sounds like a plot for a novel!

Good reason to give up bras, ladies! (I think we've already given up nylon stockings.)

They couldn't cast actors that actually are fluent in German? The spoken parts are first year high school at best and the accents are hilarious...

I'm going be that guy. Hey, maybe don't trust a sociopath who is a proven and convicted serial killer.

[@knoxtaurigen]

There are no cure for killers who committ brutal murder or sexual crimes. You can reeducate thieves, money related criminals, but not cold blood ones. Someone whois able to kill for pleasure (and not for self-defense) or need should be life sentenced, cause they probably will be a high risk to society as long as they are alive and free When killing it's an addiction, there is nothing that can rehabilitate.

[@crimejunkie4646]

I like the idea of rehabilitation vs. hard time like Canada does, but this is why I cannot fully get behind it. Some people just cannot be rehabilitated.

[@price-singspuccini6124]

So American..THEY solved the murders? Sounded to me like it was the Austrians who solved the murders at least in the u.s. The Americans didn’t have a clue..

[@t.swallgren9204]

If someone has made critical stydy of this crime case neither Austrian police nor FBI have reasons to bragg at all. FBI didn't work well with those L.A cases.
