Personal Essay: The Main Line Murderer

The National Geographic film, A Portrait of a Killer, examines the types of stress that living beings can endure, and how it can thus affect the rest of their bodies. Severe chronic stress can lead even lead to the destruction of brain cells. Dr. Robert Sapolsky is a neurobiologist of Stanford University who has been researching stress for over thirty years. In order to study stress and its implications upon nonhumans, he went to Africa to study baboons. This species has only three hours of stress caused by eating, and the rest of their daily routine is consumed by about nine hours of free time. Much like Western society, baboons socially stress out one another, as they have social hierarchies to regulate how them interact with one another.

This show kept me guessing until the very end. Making a Murderer was a show that confused me so much, and there aren’t many of those. There is one thing that I know for certain though, Brendan Dassey is innocent. And I want to think that Steven Avery is as well but I am still not sure. Steven Avery and his entire history confuses me so much, he was put in jail for 18 years for something that he didn’t do. When he finally gets out and is about to get millions of dollars and then he supposedly kills some woman? It just doesn’t sound right, but it doesn’t sound wrong. When they convicted Steven I was upset because I am, and have always been a supporter of the underdog. But at the same time I thought maybe I was missing

It was a cold night on May 16th. The air was crisp as winter leaves. I can remember the gunfire as if the bullet was just shot. The man that shot the bullet was filled with greed and power and was just a little over 6 feet tall; that was the man that killed my parents on that cold night.

     Serial killers tend to be white heterosexual males in their twenties and thirties, who are sexually dysfunctional and have low self-esteem. Serial killers generally murder strangers with cooling off periods in between each murder. Serial killers are twisted in nature. Some return to the place the murder happened or the gravesite to fantasize about their deeds. Serial killers have made many excuses for their killings and behavior such as: Henry Lucas blamed his upbringing, Jeffrey Dahmer claims he was born with a “partâ€? of him missing, Ted Bundy said porno made him do it and John Wayne Gacy turned the blame around and said the victims deserved to die. Many

When a serial killer is put on trial it can be hard to see the human on the stand, especially when they have committed so many violent acts against humanity. By looking at things from a psychological point of view, it is possible to get a better understanding of the traumatic events which are often times behind a murderer. While this is not an excuse for those who kill it does give an explanation and greater understanding of the situations behind it all. With this type of knowledge we can identify, predict, and prevent further damage to our society as a whole by aiding those with traumatic needs.

My boss was right sunday was the perfect day for murder, this weekend was very odd for me, and it all started when my boss Bob and I were conversating about a problem i was having with a few people number one on that list Makayla H. She was quite the troublemaker in my life from stalking to sending me weird gifts. Person number two Michael E. now this guy he personally killed my best friend in front of me so yea i want him dead. Person number three Garrett W. this guy stalked my brother for three weeks, suddenly my brother went missing and no one knew where Garrett was either. Person number four well that is Colby A. this guy he is the worst of them all he is the reason i have a fake leg he tried to shoot me while i was running for team USA in the olympics. My partner in crime was number five i wanted him to see what happen to the others before i killed him cause his death is the worst and he was the worst he gave my dog a poisonous kibble. Number five was Zackery B.

It was a bombing at a food court, an explosive was used at the back entrance allowing it to be blow off. She enters fully armoured unable to be stopped by the guards--if there were any--and before Thor could say "Mjolnir" [Name] Stark or more commonly known as [Name] [Last Name] was knocked out cold. This news hit the media like moths finding a light. Reports say: 0 killed; 0 injured; 1 missing. When Tony Stark found out, it hit him hard, he downed alcohol like he was survival dependent on it. That's until the Avenger straightens him out and gave him a pep talk on how can't found his daughter if he's a drunken mess.

My mother died from blunt force trauma, many hard blows to the frontal cortex. I'm told the fire started from a lit cigarette. It must have dropped after the fatal beating and set the house ablaze. My father, in his rage must have not realized, shaken by the revelation of what his poisonous wrath brought upon him or I. He succumbed to smoke inhalation shortly after. I guess by a twist of fate that was my mother's last swing at him. I can’t seem to feel the depression and misery that should have overtaken my mind by now. I almost feel relieved that neither of them has to struggle with each other anymore. I never thought my father to be as violent as the music he created that made him. I try to think of my fond memories of them and realize they’re so few. The negative ones start to seep in, almost reliving them. The yelling, demanding, and forceful nature of them trying to manipulate me to their own selfish desires of what makes an adult worthy of pride. I start thinking about the views they held so dear and I come to my own conclusion. Is it right for a man to become strong and demand respect, proud of the efforts that he wipes from his brow? Is it right to be empathetic and live through passions, letting emotions replace logic? I think both are wrong. It is imperative to be a strong leader, always striving for progression. Never the less, also important to use that power for those we are passionate about, whether it be a spouse, friend or for self. Maybe when you deny those things and join the warring duel between power and sensitivity, you become a frigid ice queen or a rage-filled demon. Always bent on the destruction of the other. On my eighteenth birthday, I decided to appease neither. I would live as I saw right and wrong. My emotions can’t hinder my strength nor my power diminishes the valor of my passions. I knew I would always have Reinhardt and Janka by my side. Everyone looks forward

The article was relatively short. I can still see the words, written in the neat block type in The New York Times. I can hardly imagine that we will soon be there. We will be at the place where this happened. I wonder what we will find when we get there? Will the townspeople be willing to talk, or will they be quiet and private? Do they know how far the sound of those four gunshots has reverberated? I guess we will soon find out.
