No A&E, so no Cold Case Files. Hadn't heard of FBI files and the whole series is apparently available on Prime, so I'll give that a look. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As for Cold Case, I'm referring to the docuseries with Bill Kurtis. Some episodes are seriously, seriously amazing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jehurey 3,228 Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 I presume I am, I've come across episodes of Autopsy before and other HBO docuseries involving serial killers. They kinda bum me out. So I don't actively seek them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Boss 70 Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Last one I read was Gomorrah by Roberto Saviano. It's an interesting read on the workings of the Camorra underworld. Really enjoyed it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
McWicked 825 Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Go read Zodiac. Yeah, the eventually proved that the author's prime suspect was innocent, but goddamn if he didn't make a case for him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But I have most of the eps on my hdd. I love this show. I never watched the originals but I want to, i watch everything in english but this is one exception because I'm to lazy to download all of it again. I will share if I get all eps in english.

SheepKilla 473 Posted March 26, 2019 Author Share Posted March 26, 2019 It's so creepy reading these true crime accounts and the facts of the case and what happened. Gives me chills right down my spine. Here's an excerpt from the Jack the Ripper story: Quote The entrance to Miller’s Court was a narrow, dingy passageway next to McCarthy’s candle shop. Bowyer knocked on the door of Mary Jane Kelly, also said to have been known as Ginger, Fair Emma, and Black Mary to her various friends and clients. She was a streetwise, twenty-four-year-old Irish girl and by most accounts was quite pretty, though no photographs of her are known. It was about 10:45 in the morning when Bowyer called on her, a good time to find her in. He knocked several times without response and began to suspect she didn’t have the rent money and was avoiding him. He tried without success to spring the lock, but there was a long-broken windowpane that had never been fixed. Inside it, an old coat had been hung in place of a proper curtain for some measure of privacy. He pushed aside the coat and peered in. The room was only ten by twelve feet, and the sight that met Thomas Bowyer’s eyes was one of such unmitigated horror that he was virtually paralyzed. A body was lying on the bed, but it was so mutilated, so torn apart, with so much of the flesh ripped off and the insides strewn across the bed and onto the floor, that the dimensions of the body, the outlines of its form, could no longer be discerned.

That's why these mutilations/killings shocked the Victorians. In fact, an FBI Agent was able to develop an in-depth psychological profile about the killer: https://forensick.me/2018/07/30/jack-the-ripper-fbi-profile-by-john-douglas/ This is not based on speculation, but proven studies done by the FBI over decades to determine who a killer is just based on their crimes alone. So this is very much still alive. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
