True Crime
10 Episodes
A narrator-driven true-crime biography of Edmund Emil Kemper III — the 6'9", 145-IQ 'Co-Ed Killer' who murdered ten people in 1960s and '70s California, beginning with his grandparents at fifteen and ending with his own mother. Told in chronological order, the series traces his life from a childhood locked in a basement, through five years inside a psychiatric prison that taught him how not to get caught, into a methodical spree against young female hitchhikers around Santa Cruz — all while he drank with the very police hunting him. It builds to the matricide that was the destination all along, his unprompted phone-booth confession, and a death-row afterlife in which he helped the FBI invent modern criminal profiling. Each episode is a self-contained micro-drama with a hook, a body, and a cliffhanger that pulls the viewer into the next.
