After 15 yeas on the run, repeatedly escaping justice, Robert Spahalski does something completely unexpected – he hands himself in and admits to five unsolved murders which have perplexed the police for years. The victims were acquaintances, close friends even lovers of Spahalski, but why did he kill them?
We speak to the man himself and attempt to understand his motivations. Before Spahalski started killing, his twin brother was convicted of murder. Was he trying to emulate his brother? Is he remorseful or does he still blame his actions on “the voices”. And finally, how many people did he really kill?
Other episodes include ’Bernard Giles’ and ’Michael Tenneson’.
In this series, we probe the attitude of murderers towards their own history so that we can better understand their motivations. How did these men become killers? A fascinating immersion into the world of the serial killer.
