In case you’re wondering why his prison guard was the only human being that Carl could tolerate: the guard once offered him a cigarette, which, according to Panzram, was “the only nice thing anyone’s ever done” to him.

When you learn of his origins, he is almost pitiable. He truly cared about nothing and seemed to only have hatred for people - and even life. It makes you wonder how he would've turned out if only he had experienced real compassion in his life. He liked a prison guard that showed an interest in him, after all. I also think that in the end, he wanted to die. I think the rage he expressed in his life was as much internal as it was external and aimed at himself as much as it was at others. He may have said what he did, hoping for the death sentence. He didn't seem like he cared to wait. All in all, his story is equal parts horrifying and tragic.

Perhaps Panzram and Manson were set up for failure. That is a real possibility. There is also the possibility that they CHOSE what they did, and that they knew what they were doing was wrong. For MOST human beings, I would caution against assuming that people cannot CHOSE right over wrong. We deny them the humanity to overcome their lot, and instead think that everything they do is simply an automatic response to their background and circumstances, like they are simply animals. Morality is something 99% of people can choose or not choose.

The whole case of Carl Panzran is so tragic and difficult to discern where blame lies. I can kind of empathize with Panzran about the corruption he was so bitter about. It's easy to focus on what he did, forgetting to focus on what was done to him by those who should be held to certain standards. At the same time there also comes a point where he maybe could have chosen differently - started a new life, no crime, and stayed under the radar. A waste of his life and those of his victims, so tragic all around.

@lindabrennan4455 2 місяці тому

IMO the level of abuse and the environment that he was raised in did not allow for any choices. I feel very strongly that if we were to look back on the most vicious, cruel people in the world it would trace back to horrible abuse from childhood with few exceptions. I'm not an expert. My opinions are from what I've read and learned throughout my life.

@rebirthoftragedy 2 роки тому

I have a question for you, Dr. Todd Grande!!! I've studied Carl Panzram quite extensively and your analysis of him was honest and unreserved. Thank you, I appreciate that. I've made a conclusion about him and I'd appreciate your thoughts about it. Carl killed many men and assaulted many others, but the boys that he assaulted and killed were all the same age, or at least, he believed them to be 11 or 12. All of these events happened during a particularly stressful time in his life, for example, losing his job on the oil rig in Africa. This makes me think he associated the stress with the first really stressful time in his life, entering Minnesota State Training School for Boys. I believe he assaulted these boys because they were the same age he was when he was sent there. Afterwards, he killed them by causing violent trauma to the head. My thoughts are he chose to put them out of their misery because that's what he wished someone would have done for him. What do you think?

A serial killer of women who surprise attacks women because of feelings of inadequacy, before doing disgusting things to their bodies, isnt going to murder other men in prison.

Thank you for reviewing this case. I saw a documentary about him years ago. What he did was excruciatingly cruel,but he learned that cruelty as a defenseless child with no hope for escape. I vehemently believe there are some kids who just never had a chance, and he was one of them. It is tragic what happens in the life of a throwaway child. Also, it is possible he committed all the crimes he confessed to, but I got the strong feeling he may have been exaggerating a little to make himself seem like a wild animal. That could have been a coping mechanism to try to protect himself, as in projecting an image of "don't f*ck with me". Curious if you picked up on the same?

@urbannsquirrel 3 роки тому

Interesting list and question posed at the end. I would not be as afraid to sit and talk with some of the most notorious serial killers like Ed Kemper or Gary Ridgeway. They have the capacity to be pleasant and unassuming, and attacking people interviewing them in prison isn't their style -- they prefer the hunt. However, those with highly volatile tempers and only a tenuous grasp of reality and have no fear of repercussions and act on impulses, or those who just have a really strong "creepy" factor (like Stephen McDaniel who murdered his neighbor, Lauren) are a big no for me. I worked with a child in Special Ed who was quite bright and friendly at times, and then suddenly his eyes would change and he would try to hurt you, seemingly out of nowhere. He fantasized about killing people and was highly unpredictable and violent. He scared the shit out of me on a gut level. I fear what he might do in the future.

I guess, though, this person has to have the want/need to kill. I don't know that if someone was doing so in self-defense, would their eyes change in a similar manner. Just my two cents.

Great video. I'm surprised you didn't put Albert Fish on that list. He was one of the most fiendish serial killers to ever exist. The only saving grace is that his list of known victims is mercifully small. I'd be very interested to hear what you have to say about Albert Fish since according to his own confessions he had a whole list of derangements and obsessions.

He was abused badly as a child, I just watched something on him on a documentary. Not saying that an excuse but it was pretty horrible. You could do a video on that part alone. Especially the "surgery" his father did on his ear that affected his brain! If he'd turned out normal I would be completely shocked. He had any feelings for humanity beat completely out of him.

@TWW-zk9gw 3 роки тому

An obscure piece of trivia; the handgun Panzram stole from President Taft is the same model you can see used by the character Professor Dent as he attempts to murder James Bond in the film Doctor No. Bond erroneously refers to it as a Smith and Wesson in the scene but the weapon used is a .45 Colt M1911.

@FrancesShear 3 роки тому

Dr. Grande perhaps if Carl Panzram ever answered a questionnaire in research on attachment style his answers might fit into a fearful and dismissive with a strong negative model of self or his answers would fit into no attachment style category at all depending on the theories believed in when drawing up the questionnaire.

Thank you very much for picking up my suggestion so quickly! And if the video was already in the making, thank you very much anyway. :-) I really appreciate your assessment of Panzram. I'm convinced that a "career" like his was only possible in this specific time period, but that makes him no less terrifying and tragic. He still stands for me as one of the worst examples of the human condition. I'd also really appreciate more videos about historical personalities. At least for me they're much more fascinating than fictional characters. :-)

As far as who I would like to interview, there are so many throughout history I can't even begin to think of one in particular. I do find Richard Kuklinski to be very intriguing although I've seen all of his interviews. Like Panzram Kuklinski grew up in a very cold Loveless environment. Kind of makes you worried about how many of these people are running a course to end up just like the Bundys of the world.

@juliadumaurier9494 3 роки тому

The serial killer Albert Fish operated around the same time as Panzram. His story has always left me feeling a certain level of uneasiness in the pit of my stomach that hasn’t been quite replicated by any other serial murderer. From a clinical perspective I suppose he would be very interesting to interview however, if sat next to him, I get the feeling my level of fright would be around the same as it was seeing Tim Curry’s version of IT as a five year old in the 90s. Thanks for the video ❤️

@wolfe6220 Рік тому

With most serial killers, I can remain pretty detached from what they've done, but when I read about Fish, I just wanted to vomit. As far as criminals I'd like to interview, Dahmer would be first. I don't think I'd be in any danger because, 1. I'm not an attractive gay man, and 2. He has no access to alcohol. Ive read that for those who have urges to kill, drinking lowers that threshold dramatically. Dahmer is the biggest example of that. I'd also like to interview Kemper. He's smart and very self aware. I don't think I'd be in too much danger, despite being a woman. He did try to stop killing and avoided killing a couple of times when he had the opportunity. Plus, the women he killed were all stand ins for his evil mother and his desire to kill dropped dramatically after that day.

I'm surprised you didn't put the Golden State Killer on your list. He scares the crap out of me! Like Panzram, he also took advantage of a lack of information sharing by authorities to kill all over the state. Didn't have any epic prison breaks, because he avoided incarceration for 40-50 years! I recently learned that he killed someone a block away from where I grew up and another right next to my elementary school. I was very young at the time. For some reason, after it happened, nobody spoke about it until he was prosecuted recently and I wasn't even aware he committed these crimes until I listened to "Man in the Window" (which is an excellent podcast series), where they described the location...
