Serial Killer Confession Transcript

by

This massive 8.5 x 11 perfect bound book contains the complete transcript of serial killer Edward Gein's confession. Over 220 pages of rare police documents. This is an amazingly interesting read.

Edward Theodore Gein (/ˈɡiːn/; August 27, 1906 – July 26, 1984), also known as The Butcher of Plainfield, was an American murderer and body snatcher. His crimes, committed around his hometown of Plainfield, Wisconsin, gathered widespread notoriety after authorities discovered that Gein had exhumed corpses from local graveyards and fashioned trophies and keepsakes from their bones and skin. Gein confessed to killing two women – tavern owner Mary Hogan in 1954, and a Plainfield hardware store owner, Bernice Worden in 1957. Gein was initially found unfit to stand trial and confined to a mental health facility. In 1968, Gein was found guilty but legally insane of the murder of Worden, and was remanded to psychiatric institutions. He died at Mendota Mental Health Institute of cancer-induced liver and respiratory failure at age 77 on July 26, 1984. He is buried next to his family in the Plainfield Cemetery, in a now unmarked grave.

Florida, Supreme Court of Florida: June 26, 1986. Much like many other team killers they each fueled the others' psyche and emboldened the other. Of course, much like other cases of team killers, loyalty soon erodes upon arrest and, to this day, Norris (laughably) claims he was afraid of Bittaker and that he participated in the murders solely upon Bittaker's urging.

  • According to the confession tape - made in the Sacramento FBI office soon after Stayner was detained on July 24, 1999 - Carole Sund was initially leery of the handsome young man at her door.
  • Posts about confession transcripts written by jj. I am still going through all these documents (there is a LOT here), but I figured I would post them all in one place for anyone who is interested in reading them as well.
