## Resource

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the disturbing case of Carl Panzram, one of the most brutal and unrepentant criminals in American history. In the early twentieth century, Panzram's trail of violence stretched across multiple continents, leaving behind at least 21 murder victims -- many of them still unidentified to this day. What investigators eventually uncovered was a killer unlike any other: a man who not only confessed to his crimes without remorse, but bragged about them. Candice examines how a childhood defined by abandonment, cruelty, and institutional abuse forged a worldview so dark and so absolute that by the time the world tried to intervene, it was far too late.
