Case File 1: Inside the mind of a killer

Just a little bit of a warning, this episode might get a little uncomfortable, especially if you have been a victim of rape or abuse, or if you are close to someone who has been. I'm going to touch upon scenarios that are downright disgusting. I’m going to explore sexual deviancy. Some of the thoughts and images i'm going to describe can be very disturbing. But in order to hunt a killer, you have to think like a killer. It's not going to be pretty, or polite, but i think it must be done.

My first thought, diving into this psychopaths head, is what does it feel like to stab someone? For a normal person, I can't imagine it would feel good to hurt someone. But for a killer, it has to be an enormous release. All that rage and pent up aggression finally explodes out. But what does it feel like to stab someone 61 times? How long does that even take? Just over a minute? Basically One stab per second? Or do you just do a couple fast stabs in the beginning and then slowly poke them after they are dead? How tired would your arm get if you were stabbing someone 61 times in a row? I’d imagine it might cramp up a little bit eventually. Perhaps you’d have to switch hands? I can’t imagine it would be any easier if you used both hands.  Who knows, maybe it's way easier to stab someone then i thought?

For my first case file, I do a test to see how easy it is to stab someone 61 times, and how long it would actually take. Also, I do a test to see how easy it is to pick up and carry someone Tina's size, completely limp and dead weight.
