He hid for over 40 years, living his life and raising his kids. From 1973 to 1986 he committed over 100 robberies, 50 sexual assaults, and 13 murders. He is one of the most notorious serial killers alive today, and in August 2020, at the age of 74, he was sentenced to 13 consecutive life sentences. He said little in court, but did offer an apology to the judge for the people that he had hurt.
Can an apology ever be sincere coming from a serial killer? Are his words honestly how he feels, or is there something more going on behind the words? And is justice served by sending someone to prison? Big questions, big answers, and big ideas fill this week's episode. From robot police dogs to privatized prisons, the future of the justice system is shifting daily and one serial killer is about to experience first hand the system that as a former police officer he helped build.
