BTK killer giving an "Oscars" caliber thank you speech on live TV (Vanity)
Fox News

Posted on 08/18/2005 12:13:03 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

What the heck is wrong with the news media and the audience that laps this stuff up?

We have become voyeurs...

I wish the media and law enforcement would stop with the "made for TV movie" names they gives these animals. BTK, Greenriver Killer, Son of Sam etc... They should refer to them with names like "Dickless Bastard", "Cowardly Eunuch", "Harry the Hermaphrodite", "Frank the Fairy", you know use names that show the contempt we as a society feel for them. Don't glamorize these animals.

"He acts like he's some kind of special person who should be listened to and studied. Like he's not him."

Good point.

Good point.

I bet it makes them feel like they have "made it" when they get their own moniker.

I wish I could describe it. I don't know when or if a transcript will be available.

Asking for 10 years per victim.

Just damn, each life was only worth 10 years to the state.

There'll be a transcript -- CNN has been carrying this wall-to-wall.

Matter of Fact "SAM" was the neighbors dog who "talked" to Berkowitz(sp) and told him to kill.

The families that gave their speeches showed unimaginable restraint. I would have been on him in a heartbeat.

OMG..you nailed it.

His style of speaking had sort of a familiar ring to it, "Hannibal Lechtor". Good observation.
