Duncan at twenty. Eight polo Gore felt content the first time in his life. After a long run, a botched attempts he'd finally succeeded in murdering a woman in October of nineteen forty and the feeling was extraordinary He wanted to do it again and soon, but he knew he had to be careful. He'd been careless with his early attempts, leaving behind a string of survivors who had alerted the author cities, but a morsel wasn't too worried. He had endless energy on his side, Berlin had been Ro wartime blackout, order for more than a year now requiring most lights to be deemed or two off after dark. This made it easy for him to stalk and attack loan women and get away with it. None of his victims had been able to identify, am likely because of govern.

Mandated darkness as a loyal Nazi party member and high ranking officer, the essay O Corso felt untouchable and the feeling of authority. He got from the party only bolstered his ego and his desperate lust for more power. on the evening of November. Fourth, nineteen forty around a month or he murdered Gertrude. A dinner in her own home, o Gozo dawned his uniform and returned to his hunting ground after his shift at the station ended that night. Oh Corso hopped aboard a train headed east. He stalked through the darkened s bond carriages, urging for a new victim. Thirty year old, Elizabetta Ben Dorothy had just finished her shit selling tickets. At the Friedrich Haagen S bond station ass, she boarded the train, oh go

XO gestured at her to follow him, offering her a more comfortable seat in the second class carriage where they'd be alone. Elizabeth figured this was simply a professional courtesy. After all, they were both railroad employees and, of course I seem friendly little did she know his mind was consumed with darkness had hidden beneath the sleeve of his starched. Uniform was along heavy piece of lead. Cable. for a few moments- the pair made small talk sitting across from each other. All the while O Gozo was watching the door out of the corner of his eye, hoping that nobody else would join them in the second class carriage then, as soon as the train left, the station or gorse O pulled out the cable and hid Elizabeth hard over the head, but he didn't strike with enough forced knocker out, so she screamed panicked,

we're so kept hitting her until she fell silent assuming she was dead, he dragged Elizabeth toward the door of the train compartment ass. He did so. He sexually assaulted her. He didn't have I'm too rape. Her the train was only moments from its next station. Buddy, apparently briefly touch turn a sexual manner, then he pulled the sliding door open and through Elizabeth body from the moving train, we don't have insight into a state of mind during these attacks. But reports suggest that this moment, when he threw his prone victor, out of the moving train was the part that he relished. The most Vanessa is going to take over the psychology here at throughout the episode. note than us is not a licence psychologist your psychiatrist, but she has done a lot of research for the show thanks. Gregg disposing of a body is often seen as a purely practical aspect of murder, away for the killer to cover his tracks, but this wasn't the case with a

also he seemingly gotta thrill out of handling his victims body after he had incapacitated her on several occasions. He sexually assaulted women when he believed they were dead. It's possible that this was motivated by a war zone, misogynistic expectations of women. He wanted them to be subsumed, current and easy to control the authors of nineteen. Eighty nine paper on necrophilia for the bulletin of the American Academy of Psychiatry and the law found that the most common motive for necrophilia is possession of an unresisting and unregeneration partner. Last time we discussed Al Gore's those feelings of rage towards women and his obsessive and unfounded believe that his wife was unfaithful if his ultimate desire was to possess and fully control women its little

under. He enjoyed assaulting and disposing of his victims when they were either dead or near death. Once he'd satisfied this perverse desire, he watched Elizabeth Limp form vanish into the night and felt at peace. Then headed homes was family without a care in the world, confident that he had killed again, but he was wrong Elizabeth survived, not only o Gore's owes brutal assault, but also her fall from the moving train. Just like Gerda Cargo, the first woman Al Gore's o attacked on the S bond. She lived to tell the tale of attack. Berlin police found her a few hours later and brushed her to the hospital where she was treated for a severe concussion eight days later. She was finally well enough to be questioned by the police. Unfortunately, she didn't.

member much about her attacker, but her memory of the circumstances was clear and, despite her shaky recollection, her testimony was a turning point. In the case, two months player police had been dismissive of Gerda cargoes claims that she'd been attacked because she'd been drinking that night, they figured she'd fallen from the train by accident and wanted to save face by blaming a mysterious assailant, But Elizabeth hadn't been drinking, he was easy for the police to verify that she had only just finished. Her shifted the station when she was attacked and her tongue, Damone. He made them look at Gerdas story in a new light. From this point onwards, the police begun investigating both attacks. Us attempted murder. This meant that the case was asked. Added to the criminal plead sigh, better known as the cripple the detective force within Nazi Germany. The crypto didn't Ronnie connection from these attacks to the murder of Gertrude, a dinner, the woman, Al Gore's oak,

held in her own home, but they did investigate the possibility that the S bomb attacks were linked to the attacks on women in the cities, gardens where a Gore's o first started. working women at night. With the connection in mind. They began questioning residents of the area. Meanwhile, Both Elizabeth and Gerda had described there attacker as a railroad employee wearing a dark uniform. This narrowed things down a little and over the next few weeks the police interviewed some thirty suspects some Oh, oh Gozo was not among them. It's not clear. much he knew about the investigation or when he figured out that Elizabeth and Gerda had survived. he knew that the women were alive and being questioned. It wasn't enough to put him off. He made for a while, but after a month he was feeling confident enough to strike again. I'm in of December. Third,

course. I noticed a young woman sitting alone in the second class compartment her name was Elfrida Franca and she was a twenty six year old nurse returning from work. The compartment was otherwise empty, unlike before or Gordo didn't need to Laurel Frida into a false sense of security. He already had her exact We were, he wanted her. There would be small talk this evening. Oh Gozo walked up to Elfrida, pulled out a piece of heavy rebar from his sleeve and struck her hard in the head time he made Shorty use enough forced to knock her out with one blow. In fact, he used enough forest fracture Elfrida Skull, causing her immediate and fatal brain damage. as usual, o Gozo knew he only had a few minutes. He dragged her body to the door opened it up and tossed her out into the night. Then heat

her belongings out after her the thrill was intense but fleeting it disappeared in the darkness along without breeders body and tonight. Oh gorse, all wanted more. He got off the train at the next station and walked restlessly through the dark and the dental streets within an hour, he saw a nineteen year old in guard freezer walking home and made he's move. He knocked him guard unconscious, raped her and left her for dead. she was alive, but her body was found. Better injuries were severe in guard. Skull was fractured by the force of Al Gore's those blow and though she was rushed to the hospital she died there later. The same day. Meanwhile, alpha His body was also found within hours, and her murder was immediately linked to the attacks on Elizabeth and Gerda. The cripple were now covered, that they were dealing with a serial killer on the S, Bonn and wanted to publicize this fact

both to warn women of the danger and to seek information from the public, but their hands were tied. Use of girls. The Reich minister, a propaganda had an iron grip on the job. press and censored any information that would damage morale or make them look weak. Both would endanger the war effort, this story of Assyria a killer, stalking women on the S bond would do both, and so news of the attacks was suppressed. Under these less than ideal conditions, bill, helm, LUCA, head of the cripple serious crimes unit set out to investigate the cat is he knew we had to find a way to keep the railroad safe without causing panic, and so he launched an ambitious under cover operation, loot, good deployed police officers to ride the S body, at night, posing as ordinary passengers.

The city's residents were on edge and

we note to most of those residents. Berlin's rail system was also being terrorised by a serial killer, Paul O Gore, so the police had formulated a prior to try and care the murderer, whose identity remained a mystery officers. In plain clothes were planted on s bond trains disguise to look like billion women travelling alone. The hope was that one of these decoy would catch the murderers I and that he could be apprehended in the act and the plan worked almost perfectly his book a serial killer in Nazi Berlin, the chilling true story of the S bond murderer: authors, Scott Andrew Selby, describes in excess ordinary near Miss according to this report or gorse, or approached a female police officer bleeding her to be a civilian, but once he got up close something about her spooked him, so he turned around and walked back the way he'd come Thanks to his connections in the Nazi Party and the essay o Gozo had her

about. The undercover police effort is not clear why he suspected that this woman was a police officer, it's possible that she appeared to stoic and unafraid to be a civilian in any case, or Georgia was being much more cautious. Now he knew that the police presence on the spot was beefed up at night, because that's what all of US attacks had been so He adapted he planned his next attack for just before dawn on a Sunday morning when the trains were close to empty in the early hours of December. Twenty second, thirty year Old Elizabeth Boon Get on board in the second class compartment of Anne S bomb train. She was on her way to see her husband for Christmas. At the army base where he was stationed she was alone in the compartment, except for a Gore so and in the darkness. She didn't see him coming until it was too late.

oh Gozo hit elizabetta in the head and through her from the moving train, along with her purse, when the police found her body a few hours later, the initially suspected that she had taken her own life suicides were common around the holidays, but once they discovered her belongings, which had clearly been thrown from the train after her, they realized yes, but murderer had claimed another victim. By this time, o Gozo was already miles away. Waking up in a sleepy supper beside his unsuspecting wife, he felt peaceful after killing and he wouldn't wait long to strike again In the early hours of Sunday December, twenty ninth O Corso boarded a train that was almost empty within moments. His eye fell on Gertrude Z, Avert Gertrude was in her. Forty,

and traveling alone in the second class compartment or gorse or suppressed a smile perfect. He gripped the iron rebar concealed his sleeve and made his move. He walked right up to Gertrude and rock her hard in the head? She immediately crumpled to the floor unconscious, but still alive wasting no time oh Gordo, through Gertrude and her belongings out of the moving train, police found Gertrude lying near the tracks later that morning she was rushed to the hospital where she I differ injuries the next day, the spot Murderer had claimed another victim. It striking that on so many occasions, o Gore's or failed to act, we kill his victims in the moment, as we discussed last week, he botched numerous murders in the garden area near his home before venturing.

moving his activities to the S. Barn, though Gertrude did succumb to her injuries, the that she initially survived both the attack and the fall shows that a gourd those Emma was not very effective overkill, as common at murder scenes that is disproportionate and excessive violence far beyond what is necessary to kill but under kill is less common. Why wouldn't? Of course, I will make sure that its victim was dead for throwing her from the train. Why risk leaving surviving victim to identify him? It's hard to know why Gordo would behave this recklessly, but we can speculate criminal behaviour. Experts have noted that its common foresees and serial killers to become overconfident and start cutting corners according to a two thousand

eight briefing from the FBI. This is often misunderstood as the killer wanting to get caught when in fact they simply get sloppy. The bureau explains a serial killers continue to offend without being captured, they can become empowered feeling they will never be identified a gourd so truly believe that he was untouchable. He had good reason to think ass. He was a model citizen in Nazi Germany and Airy, family man, a proud party, member and valued essay officer, he didn't need to concern himself with finishing the job properly or carefully disposing of the bodies. Ye could afford to get sloppy, or so he believed this. Sloppiness became more evident in the early hours of January fifth, but, of course, are returned to the US

for yet another Sunday morning, murder. Only this time he had no weapon with him. It's hard to understand how he could have made such a basic mistake, but it's possible also was getting boarded the same old M o and wanted to kill his next victim with his bare hands. still given the looming threat of a police patrol. It seems bizarre to risk the possibility that his victim might screen for help. None the less of Gozo forged ahead. He saw headway key bower, I twenty seven year old woman and attacked squeezing her throat tightly in his hands without the ability to knock his victim unconscious. Of course, I had a much harder time subduing her head, VIC fought back punching and kicking here.

And it took all his strength to finally overcome her once she was unconscious, o Gozo rush to throw her body from the moving train before it reached the next station, but yet again or girls, who had failed to actually killed his victim in a moment but had been died of her injuries in the hospital later that same day before police, good interview, her about the attack seeks, win had now been attacked on the S, Bonn and four had died, LUCA the lead invested Peter was getting more and more frustrated by his inability to publicize the case. How was he supposed to stop this maniac? If he couldn't even ask the public for information, he eventually persuaded Joseph gurgles there minister. A propaganda to allow a single article to be published in Berlin newspaper explaining the facts of the case asking anyone with information to come forward, so

On January, seven. Nineteen, forty one, the peace, ran under the headline attacks on the S Esteban at this time. Police launched an initiative to keep women safe on the trains. A late night escort service, women travelling alone could make a formal request to have a man accompany them on their journey to ensure they got home safely. In order to be considered for Escort duty man how to meet very narrow criteria. He had to be both member of the Nazi Party and a member of the essay the parties paramilitary. ranch. His officers were known as brown shirts. If this sounds familiar, that's because Paula Gozo was both a loyal party member and a brown shirt. In fact, he was Oh, a sharp, fewer, a squad leader in the essay. He was exactly the kind of man the police wanted, as an escort to keep the women of Berlin safe from the s

bon murderer and sure enough. He volunteered for the job s. because he was also wasn't foolish enough to actually attack any the women he was assigned to escort each request for an escort was launched by the police, as were the details of which escort was assigned to which passenger. If anything happened to a woman under his care, it would take no time for the authorities to trace the crime back to him. Perhaps for this reason, a gorse all went several weeks without killing Sheer ludicrous thrill of his situation was enough to sustain him for a while being tasked with protecting the very women he had been. Terrorizing was, more evidence, tourism that he was untouchable. The state would always protect him and reward him for his loyalty to the party. With this renewed feeling of confidence, o Gozo was ready to start.

again. He began carrying the rebar around with him again, even as he has scored a women's safely to their homes and soon enough, another opportunity dropped right into his lamp. On the evening of February, eleven o gorse all finished. His volunteer shift escorting women home at headed back to the station. To catch a train as he waited on the platform. Thirty nine year old, you'll, Hano folks approached him. She was pregnant mother of three. and standing alone on the platform in the dark? She was flooded with a sudden feeling of dread. She knew about the US by killer and felt uneasy travelling alone. But she had forgotten to make a formal request for an escort that night when she saw a girl, so it s uniform. She decided to ask for help. Her destination was just station away. She explained, would you mind

company her on her journey, o Gordo smiled politely and told her. He was happy to help the twenty eight year old. Couldn't believe his luck. Since this wasn't an official escort assignment, there would be no paperwork linking him to your hunner. He was free to indulge the vicious urged. It had been building for weeks when the train arrived. A Gore so followed Johan on board and led her to the empty second class compartment as soon as they left the station. He struck this time. He remembered his weapon. He hit Johan over the head with the rebar again and again. Until she passed out then threw her from the moving brain by the time police found her a few hours later. You'll Hano was dead and a gorgeous was long gone, whisked away

bored. The murder scene itself, with a seventh attack, confirmed the cripple wrapped up police presence on board as Bonn trains inside stations and in public locations across the city. This made it far too risky for a so even at its most impulsive. Try killing again for months He bite it is time, but he wasn't worried. He knew the amount of manpower the cripple was throwing at this problem wasn't sustainable, especially in the middle of a costly war, sooner or later, things would go back to normal that summer, his patient was rewarded on June. Twenty. Second, Many invaded the Soviet Union violating a non aggression pact. They had signed just two years earlier as a result of this turn in the war. The german police had to reallocate resources to the front lines.

Meaning they had to wind down their patrols aboard the S barn. At least that was what a Corso heard. In fact, the cripple had spread this rumour deliberately I knew he had now gone four months without a murder and suspected he was surely waiting hungrily for his moment to strike again. Perhaps if they made it look as though the coast was clear, he'd emerge aid worked hearing, the NEWS O Gore's o felt in bold and he wouldn't go back to the S Bonn, yet though he knew would take some time for the patrols to stop entirely. Instead, he returned to his roots coming up or gorse I'll get swift and brutal justice. This episode is brought to you by wind outcome, the days

It was now a seasoned serial killer with a body count of seven and no intention of stopping, despite the vast police effort under way to capture the S bond killer. Despite this might occur, or Corso wasn't particularly attached to the US born as a murder location, it had simply been convenient uneasy place for him to take advantage of his uniform and position of authority. But now that the trains were crawling with police, he was ready to go back to his old hunting ground. On July. Third, o Gordo left work for the night and caught a train to the Roma's bird s bond station here that he had met Gertrude, a bitter, his first murder victim as Corso got off the train. He noticed several women getting off to most of them were alone. So he had a pic of potential marks.

His eye fell on thirty five year old Frida coat seal as she peeled away from the crowd and headed down a darkened neighbourhood path. He followed her in the past or girls who had sometimes engaged as victims and small talk before attacking, is uniform and unassuming matter usually put people at ease. But tonight the act wasn't working. He tried to talk to Frida asking if you get accompany her home, but she said no and picked up her pace figuring. The subtle approach wasn't going to work or gorse or pulled the rebar out from his sleeve and hit Frida hard in the back of the head several times, it was. The blows were brutal, fracturing your skull and killing her instantly when he attacked women on the trains. O Gozo had only a few minutes between stations, leaving him very little time, do enjoy the moment. But now he wasn't in a rush. He re

her body and then left it lying in the darkness. When the authorities fond Frida's body the following morning, they had no doubt this was the work of the US bond killer. Aside from the location, the Emma was identical. By this point, the police had established that the S bond killer was also responsible for the deaths of Gertrude. At dinner and in guard freezer, though, neither had died on the train system, Since they still suspected the killer, worked for the railroad, the cripple embarked on a mass interrogation, abbess bond employees over the course of a week they interview power. The workers about their movements sent about any suspicious activity. They noticed, unlike last time, o goes

was one of the men interviewed, but he was cleared early in the process, because records show that he'd been at work at the signal tower. When some of the murders took place, then when of course, coworkers made them think twice, he told the police that he'd seen Al Gore so ditches post by climbing offence when the coworker had asked where he was going or gorse replied that he was going to see a woman. This made his alibi, worthless some of the gorge. Those other colleagues also reported that he'd made some massage monistic comments about women, wasn't in itself incriminating, but it was enough to turn the authorities attention back to him, though, led investigator Wilhelm Blue Card, as colleagues were surely relieved to be closing it out a suspect, it was a complicated victory. Given the racist ideology at the heart of the nazi government. It's likely that police were under some pressure to focus their attention on undesirable suspects rather than area and Germans, but the

evidence against. Georgia was undeniable even for a state as morally bankrupt as the Nazis. The cripple had no choice but to bring him in for questioning until I twelve as or Gaza was relaxing in the garden of his apartment. Complex, a group of uniformed officers appeared a chill ran down his fine, but he tried to play it cool. The officers told them that he was under arrest. They I loved him and took him into custody and before leaving, they confiscated his railroad uniform. The uniform of such love for forensic analysis and, of course I was taken to the cripple headquarters for questioning When the interrogation began later that day, o Gordo projected total confidence. He denied everything he insisted that he'd never left his post at work and it certainly

reclaimed offence. To do so, he was a loyal and hard working employee. He told them indignantly, but the police kept pushing him. They made it clear that they weren't buying his saintly act and so, of course, owed changed tack. He admitted that the CO workers story was true. he had an explanation. He had stuck out of work for a rendezvous with a woman. He was having an affair with he said: he'd concealed it because he didn't want his wife to find out. This seemed plausible enough to the police, especially when o Gore's those mistress confirmed their affair. Seeing that they were born is lies. The killer kept up the rules when the forensic Analyses show that there were microscopic blood spatters on his railroad, uniform or Corso had an export,

nation. For that too, he claimed that his wife had been sick recently and had blood on him remarkably, his wife back them up, but the pattern of the bloodstained suggested that it come from a struggle and when he was questioned about his usual route to work, oh Gore story began to fall apart. Of course, I admitted that it occasionally harassed women in the garden area by shining his flashlight in their eyes. During blackouts. Still, he insisted that was as far as he'd ever gone. Perhaps he thought that by admitting a little guilt he could get the cripple tobacco The investigators weren't letting up hoping to catch also in a lie. They escorted him to the garden area and asked him to point out the precise locations of his petty crimes or gorse or crumbled under the pressure he couldn't keep his own sin straitness head and instead of pointing

the sight of one of his minor crimes. He led police right to the scene of one of his violent attacks soon after this inadvertent confession, the police brought in to, of course, those surviving victims and ask them they recognized him. One of the women was Gertrude niece vaunt who Gozo had stabbed outside her parents house she recognized immediately and named him as her attacker for so long ago, so it built untouchable. He was a good German early and loyal Nazi party member and a squad leader in the say, and that was confidence was shaken. He felt sure that it he could speak to the man in charge. This could all be straightened out. Vill how loot got the lead. Investigator was more than willing to sit down with the gorse out and he brought along a few. Up to the interrogation room, including the sculls of some of our Gore's those victims, Nootka was determined to get a confession and he didn't have to wait long

they're in the room or Gozo begged LUCA for mercy. He knew that he was facing the death penalty for his crimes and he was terrified desperate to curry, favour. He emphasized his position in the party, his s, air connections and his employee record. At this point he was trying to save his own life. Elude CO wasn't interested in helping just as Al Gore so had done with so many of his victims. He, Lord is suspect into a false sense of Curiously, he fain sympathy playing along and saying that he'd be happy to help. He just needed to know exactly what a gorgeous had done. First, hearing that oh Gore's o finally broke down and confessed to all of his crimes, eight murders in total six attempted murders and more than thirty other attacks, but even then he claimed he wasn't at fault. Instead, he tried to.

Wait, the Nazi parties bigotry to his own advantage. He claimed that he'd been diagnosed with gonorrhea by an incompetent jewish doctor who then failed to treat improperly as a result of the condition he claimed. He developed a mental illness that drove him to kill. He needed to be in a psychiatric hospital, not prison, unfortunately, for a girl, so gonorrhea does not cause psychiatric symptoms. It's possible that he met syphilis, which does have the potential to cause mental illness. If not treated correctly. Studies estimate that around thirty percent of untreated syphilis patients develop Nero Syphilis.

A bacterial infection of the brain or spinal cord, which can cause paranoia mood, swings and other symptoms, maiming the wrong sexually transmitted infection in his confession was a characteristically sloppy move from a Gore so who seem to believe he was above the law. He was wrong about that, but a doctor examined Al Gore Zone that week he found no relevant physical or mental illness. This last desperate attempt to save himself had failed On July, Eighteenth, o Gore's all was publicly. I d defied as the S bond murderer. Two days later, the Nazi Party revoked his membership and expelled him. The party publicly condemning a serial killer was hypocrites to say the least.
