It was 1972 in Santa Cruz, California.  It was a time of love and peace…..The age of aquirius.  Many people described it as a fun and free time period to live….

However, this would all change In August of that year when group of hikers found a skull up in the Loma Prieta Mountain.  This would be the beginning of a horrific killing spree that would paralyze a city and steal the innocence of residents who lived for years in fear that they were prey being hunted by a sick killer.  

This is the case of the Coed Killer, Ed Kemper.  Here we cover his childhood, background and first murders.  This shit is super f-ed up....so brace yourself.

Explicit content alert.  This case contains graphic and disturbing detail around sexual abuse, dismemberment, necrophilia, animal abuse and a number of really terrible things....We did our best, as always, be respectful to the victims and the topics.
