Born to Kill (2005) Season 3 Episode 3

When body parts began washing up on the beaches of a peaceful Californian seaside town, police realised someone was hunting, abducting, murdering and dismembering female co-eds. What they didn’t realise was; the killer was in their midst – drinking with them at their favourite local bar. Cops considered the 6’9′ inch Edmund Kemper a gentle giant, little did they know that as a teenager he’d murdered his grandparents, he’d fooled psychiatrists into releasing him from secure hospital after just 5 years, and while he was socialising with police officers he was living out his bizarre sexual fantasies with the corpses of young co-eds. Edmund Kemper would kill and dismember 6 young college girls before turning on his mother and her best friend. Was his mind was twisted by his upbringing in a broken home and volatile relationship with a domineering mother? Or was the Co-ed Butcher born to kill?
