The Vampire Killer: Unmasking the Horrors of DeBardeleben's Crimes

This week we explore the art of mind hunting; profilers detail how they use the science of the mind to track down killers.
Forensic scientists work with a variety of methods (i.e. computer technology, anthropology, entomology) to solve crimes which would otherwise remain unsolved, through finding seemingly obscure clues such as tire tracks, bullet fragments and hair samples and then putting the pieces together. Interviews with forensic pathologists, cold case detectives and victims families show the process entailed in each case. Three separate cases are spotlighted in each episode of this series.

To be fair, I think even my grandma could figure that someone who bathes in blood is “mentally deteriorating”. It would be funny if it weren’t tragic, aside from this truly fascinating, I wonder why so many people (like me) are so fascinated by these terrible cases.

[@ep081598]

Profiler's work is just fascinating. They can determine age, looks, type of work they do, married, kind of family they had, what they drive and other personal quirks. When they catch these monsters, it's uncanny how close they get.

[@beaulieuonnp593]

a lot of criminals have an easy pattern, apart from the some who know how to play the game.These days, it is a lot easier to catch them with technology yet they are so arrogant and crazied, they still risk it. Just shows how dangerous they are and the ones that kill in broad daylight are very very dangerous. I do find it interesting that a lot of them do have toxic childhoods, apart from some of course, even parent needs to have parenting lessons and be regularly spotchecked by social workers randomly. and CCTV should be in parents' homes. The social workers should regularly go in with a body cam too and do this regularly over time.

[@sharonrenedavenport8995]

The Profilers are not always right. One I remember was a FBI Profiler who said the guy was white, and some witnesses said the Perpetrator was a white man. But when consulting with a Psychic she said he was a Black man. She told LE how to catch him. And he was Black.

[@landang7906]

[@davecarsley8773]

Profilers are also often completly wrong. And when the suspect is caught, nobody says anything. It's sort of like when someone has a "bad feeling", then moments later gets a call that a family member or friend just died. They think they "knew" when the person died. But they are totally ignoring the hundreds of other times they had a bad feeling and absolutely nothing happened. There's certainly a science -- if a very _soft_ science -- to profiling, and it's another tool in the toolbox. But profilers are often very wrong. You don't hear about those cases; they're not amazing; they're not interesting; they don't become TV specials.

“Organized” serial killers are all psychopaths, and “disorganized” serial killers have schizophrenia, usually the paranoid type, and were in an acute psychotic state when they committed murder, hence the “disorganized,” intensely violent behavior patterns. Because of this, I tend to think of this latter type as mass murderers rather than true serial killers, but I recognize that this is only how they make sense to me, and isn’t how they’re classified. Incidentally, the insanity defense was instituted for schizophrenics exhibiting extremely bizarre behaviors associated with psychosis; it isn’t that they don’t know or can’t distinguish right from wrong, though....they can’t recognize what is real, and what isn’t, and act violently due to intense feelings of paranoia and auditory/ visual hallucinations.

20:00 The breakdown of how a child is treated by their mother and father effects them so profoundly ... Of 36 serial killers: By age 2, almost half their fathers had abandoned the family. 26 had a cold or unfeeling relationship with their father. Almost half had a cold or unfeeling relationship with their mother. Nearly 70% lived in a family with alcohol abuse. A third lived in a family with drug abuse. Almost all suffered some form of childhood physiological, physical or sexual abuse. Many of them, as children, tortured animals. Most didn't graduate high school. They were intelligent enough to do skilled jobs. Most had a poor work history -- only 6 or the 36 had held onto steady work. All seemed normal, like a regular neighbour or friend.

Had me at, 'some of her internal organs had been removed.' In the 80s, when I was 16, I was hitchhiking & DeBardeleben picked me up in Norfolk, Virginia. I told him I was going to see my boyfriend. He had automatic door locks (rare in the 80s except for cop cars) & a cb radio in his car. He said he was an undercover cop which even as a kid, I knew that was bull 💩 because cops don't tell you they're undercover, so I was immediately ill at ease. He kept touching my legs asking if my boyfriend does that & asked me why I wasn't in school. I felt frightened AF & wanted to get the hell out of the car, but the lock covers were stripped off of the locks & I needed needle nose pliers to unlock the door. Fortunately there was a 2 vehicle accident blocking our entrance to a bridge & cops were at the scene. He popped the locks & told me, "Today's your lucky day." The hairs on the back of my neck stood up as I hastily exited his vehicle. Years later as a young AF wife & mother, I saw him on America's Most Wanted, initially he was only wanted for counterfeiting. In a storage unit in Virginia, they found a counterfeiting machine/paraphernalia & recordings of women being tortured & murdered. They also found women's clothing, jewelry & various forms of id. Some of these women were found alive & they shared their horror stories with law enforcement as did I after he was captured. He was passing off counterfeit bills to fund his sexual deviance. I'm relieved that he's dead & that I was unscathed.

One time a cop working security at a casino, driving a beat-up little Toyota truck around the parking lot, tried to get me to stop and talk to him, and I took off running. (In the '90's, women knew all about all the predators that went around dressed like cops.) I did get into trouble for running away from him, but, whatever! (He wanted to question me about some theft that had occurred in the parking lot, it turned out. He did catch me, cuff me, push me onto the ground, yadda, yadda, yadda.

Harold shipman is known as dr death 💀 it is reported that the actual victim count is unknown, but rumoured to be over 250+. If it wasn’t for the suspicious undertakers looking at the death certificates he would have never been discovered. Shipman committed suicide in prison in 2004

Of all serial killers, this is the guy not guilty by reason of insanity. They left out that he had been diagnosed earlier. In UK he would be in loony bin. I guess in US, if you can tell the judge from a cabbage, you're competent to stand trial and be sentenced to death.

[@inkyguy]

Je' Czaja, I agree with you, but “insanity” is not a scientific medical concept or term; it is a legal convention, meaning a state or condition in which the perpetrator, for whatever reason, is unable to distinguish between right and wrong. It is an incredibly high bar, because even extremely delusional people can still usually demonstrate an understanding of the difference between right and wrong.

[@georgianaradauti7315]

Since the guy isn't guilty cause he is insane why don't we just release him back on streets . Lets forget the innocents dead and the fact that he poses a risk for anyone around him.

For the Unsub Killer to have instantly become a full fledged kidnap investigation involving the FBI was it because he crossed into Delaware? Part of Assateague Island all of O.C. are the only Maryland coastal beaches. On the portion of the coastal highway she was taken from he could be in Fenwick, Dewey, Bethany or Rehoboth Delaware in a matter of minutes. Unless he traveled back up what would've been the original highway into Ocean City that he most likely used when he arrived. That would keep him in Maryland but riding that Mason Dixon line. Pulling off any road to the North would've crossed state lines into Delaware.
