Send us a text

Before Carl Panzram became one of America’s most sadistic killers, he was a child hardened by cruelty and a young man fueled by rage. In Part 1, we explore his violent upbringing, his repeated run-ins with brutal reform schools, and his growing hatred for humanity. By 20 years of age and freshly paroled from Leavenworth State Penitentiary, his path is set—but the worst is yet to come. 

Join us as we uncover the origins of Carl Panzram’s reign of terror.
