@@ritabn8910 yes, but severe trauma can affect one person in an innocuous, non-violent way and lesser trauma can affect another person in an explosively violent way. Our brain chemistry and wiring are affected differently by different stimuli. For example, my mother has a long history of severe anxiety and depression, my father does not at all. When my brother and I experienced severe trauma throughout childhood, I developed PTSD, crippling anxiety and depression. He has never suffered from any mental illness and has always thrived. We both were subjected to the exact same environment and trauma, yet due to our different inherited genes, my ‘gun’ was loaded, his was not, so when the ‘triggers’ were pulled, the results were vastly different. It’s fascinating, really, when you see the effects of inherited genes so overtly. There are also instances in violent offenders where parts of their brains like the hippocampus or amygdala have been damaged by physical trauma or substance abuse or they were born with them underdeveloped so their emotional regulation is askew and are prone to poor impulse control which contribute to their violent and erratic behaviour. It’s so interesting!

Ed Gein was not a complete hermit, he had friends and was well liked in the community. He did odd jobs for people and babysat people's children. The night he was caught, he was having dinner with friends and drove down to the hardware store with them. No one ever suspected he was doing what he did.

Mid-age photo implied to be Ed's mother is NOT. That photo was stolen from a Find A Grave memorial page for a similarly-named woman who lived in Oregon. The owner of the memorial (and descendant of) HAS used legal means to halt unauthorized misuseage.

I used to work as a psychotherapist at the Institute Ed lived in most of his life until his death. I think this psychologist is assuming a bit too much that Ed’s motive was sexual in nature. There was no evidence of necrophilia or any other sexually deviant behavior. Also, Ed wasn’t a hermit and did go out of his house and was well known in town as quite friendly albeit a little odd. And, he was a genuinely friendly (not a manipulative charming psychopathic) resident at the institution. He was known to be easy to talk to and did not present as narcissistic. When he was younger Ed was even trusted to babysit children in town and never hurt them. I think he was creating a female person “suit” because he was trying to recreate his deceased mother. Yes, she was quite controlling and abusive and their attachment/bond was pathological. She made herself his entire life. He had cognitive issues and obviously severe mental illness and trauma. Ed was not so much “evil,” as ill and broken by his mother. I do agree with this psychologist tha he was not a sadistic psychopath. But, not all behaviors such as these are created by sexual urges. That’s just the popular theory at this time for crimes like this in general. However, humans are unique and so are their motives. Desperation, fear and grief combined with a lack of coping skills can also create terrifying results.

I work with kids and I have a keen interest in how the environment shapes us as humans. If you think about it, only 3.5% of the population would have a personality characterised as antisocial (the one that we normally call as being psychopaths). A large proportion of this small antisocial population will never commit a murder. They would be leaching, conniving, malicious people, but they never get to actually commit a murder. So, how are all these serial murderers created? We like to think that they were born sick, but were they all born this way? Years of abuse, disturbed love maps, neglect, dissociation from any semblance of normality would do the trick! I see it every day and I am actually terrified of thinking of how many many kids slip through the cracks and no one is common to save them from their own private hell. They stay there until hell actually starts to feel like home.

In many cases the foundation of a criminal arise due to outward, often environmental, circumstances, and A LOT of those could potentially be avoided if we ensured people lived better, more stable childhoods. But that being said, it's still no excuse for crimes. Deliberately hurting others shouldn't shouldn't be ignored, it should be unlearned, and once a person is so far in that they can't unlearn, that's when I find life in prison a viable solution. We can have empathy and compassion with those who do horrible things and still hold them accountable for their actions.

A lot of people would argue nature versus nurture. How much of these crimes is Ed's fault? Personally, I would argue that nature had nothing to do with it. Many people grow up in unstable, violent, emotionally damaging environments and don't resort to sick crimes such as Ed did. I do believe he was confused sexually, but that confusion doesn't excuse his actions. I worked in a psychiatric hospital for many years and not ONCE did I ever encounter a soul that was capable of violence or criminal acts, such as this or of lesser extent. Psychiatric illness doesn't create monsters, neither does a person's environment. We all have free will. We all can choose to act in goodness.

I have a slight problem with this psychologist. I'm not saying he's wrong, and I even agree with other commenters who say that genetics are like a loaded gun, and conditioning pulls the trigger. But this man did not interview Ed Gein personally. He starts out making assumptions concerning a sexual relationship with his mother. It's an assumption. But later on, in contradiction to the scientific method, he's presenting it to you as a fact. He can't possibly know it was a fact. He even talks about Ed masturbating with thoughts of his mother. There is no way he can possibly know that. Psychology is an imperfect science to say the least. And my experiences are that when psychological assumption is being presented as empirical fact, that is a flaw. It might be nitpicking, and his explanations might be the best available guess, but it's still an assumption and not fact.

The whole Gein story makes me so confused. Some say he desecrated his mother 's grave and some say he could not get at the coffin because she was buried within a concrete vault.

I've just commented on this. He almost certainly killed his brother. That makes 3 and left alone he would most certainly have gone on to kill many more. In the 70's when the term " serial killer " was born, it was 3 murders with a cooling off process between them that designated you as a serial killer. It's been reduced to 2 now for some unknown reason. Gein was certainly one of if not the most infamous graverobber that ever lived.

OMG. This is sickening. 😱

The criminal psychologist favors the mastermind behind Saw.

He was also an inspiration for Gein in Rurouni Kenshin

You can see how Gein was the inspiration for so many horror movies😮

Wow! With all the misinformation and inaccurate photographs in this documentary, a student presenting this as a final project in elementary school would fail. If you want to learn about Ed Gein from media content, watch the movie, 'Ed Gein.'

1:16 I don’t think that’s her mother’s picture

Gein was an interesting individual the world he inhabited (in his mind) would give so many insights into modern serial killers.

Why would he say Gein was a prolific serial killer? He killed two people that we know of.

They found enough body parts, skin and private parts that there had to be more than 2 victims. Before DNA all they could do was visually match body parts with each other.

@@linusfotograf No, they found all of those parts. It's the 'extra' pieces they were finding scattered in his home. They were seriously creeped out by these, they did a headcount of all the local ladies AND checked the graves of the recently & not so recently deceased ladies in the area. They found they had too many of certain pieces (breasts, vaginas, etc.) and were trying to find the rest of their bodies. Many, many, too many moons ago when I was in college working towards an Admin of Justice degree, I would spend a LOT of time in the Law Library at my University and take advantage of visiting other schools Law Libraries. I was doing course work but I was also just snooping around. I looked up Mr. Gein's case and went through what material was there, I seriously had nightmares for a week or so. Then his name was brought up in class and due to my snooping skills I was able to sound like a knowledgeable law student for a couple of hours.

Because he obviously doesn't know what he's talking about.

great vid but the audio sounds terrible for the interview. A1 what happened..!!!

Many also believe that Ed killed his brother because his brother wanted to move out of the house and in with a divorcee or widower & her kids. He felt that his brother was betraying his mother & going against her preaching.

I thought the thumbnail was of the Saw actor

Sometimes if people's religious/moral beliefs discourage expressing sexuality directly, it ends up coming out sideways.

You guys should investigate the disappearance of emanuela orlandi

Does killing two people make you a prolific serial killer?

These days it does. They've reduced it to 2 with a cooling off period between them. Back in the 70's when the term " serial killer " was created it was 3 killings, separated with cooling off periods. Gein almost certainly killed his brother so yes he was a serial killer. Left to his own devices he would have killed more. Infamous graverobber for sure.

Yes. Have you looked up what the word, prolific means? He likely killed more. He only confessed to two, because they had overwhelming physical evidence. If only they could have tested the things he made from human remains.

Dr himself looking like the guy from Jigsaw hahaha

Criminal psychologist looks like the guy in SAW

Is it just me see the psychologist looks like Tobin Bell (Jigsaw series)?

Ed was actually born in La Crosse, WI. The family later moved to Plainfield.

These little errors irk me. The photo isn't even of Augusta...a larger error.

Ed wasn't born in Plainfield.

I don't see how you can call him a very prolific serial killer, when he only killed 2 people, and most likely his own brother, as well.

9:29 was pretty funny 😂.

But he wasn't a serial killer, double murderer and grave robber, but not a serial killer. This is a label put on Charlie Manson too, and he didn't actually kill anyone

@@rimrunz1795 no one is saying that he was not guilty of a crime. Person is simply stating that there's no proof he murdered anyone at all. So you can't be a murderer if you've never killed anyone. That was the only statement made. The rest you filled in yourself.

So, the character of Norman Bates was definitely based off this guy. That’s scary.

Also Leatherface from the movie Texas Chainsaw Massacre was based on him too except his crimes happened up in Wisconsin & he didn't use a chainsaw.

I recently read a biography of Ed Gein and it made no mention of him digging up his mother let alone decapitating her.

Jigsaw talking about Ed Gein..😂

This is a whole lotta Wow!

I believe ed was born in lacrosse Wisconsin . His mother moved them to Plainfield when he was a young boy because she wanted them away from the sins of bigger cities

Oh man but his mother so messed up 😡😡😡

I agree with everything except the guilt part. Guilt is a feeling (and/or a fact).
