Today I'm with Homicide Lieutenant Gil Carrillo, the officer who caught Richard Ramirez (AKA the Night Stalker). For those who watched the Netflix documentary, you may recognise Gil. We discussed the case and looked at whether serial killers are born or made, the role of satanism/childhood abuse and if Ramirez was evil.
I looked at some fascinating research from neuroscientist Jim Fallon into the criminal brain, so tune in for a ton of interesting content with renowned detective Carrillo.
