## Resource

This is the harrowing true story of Todd Kohlhepp, a respected real estate broker and seemingly ordinary member of his community, who was secretly a sadistic serial killer responsible for at least seven murders, a 2003 quadruple homicide, and the two-month captivity of a young woman he chained inside a shipping container on his property. With chilling arrogance, he confessed to investigators, treating his interrogation like a performance to brag about his crimes, revealing a dark psyche that had been hiding in plain sight for over a decade.
