What psychiatrists actually found was that Olson was a severe psychopath. One doctor put it this way. Even people who have met individuals who are called psychopathic or antisocial cannot bring themselves to believe that there may be individuals of this gross nature. It's too impossible to accept.

I don't know. I mean, I don't. I'm not a psychiatrist.

I'm a reporter. As a reporter, these calls were about more than learning about Olson himself. I hoped I could do something that the police couldn't. I hoped I could get more information out of him. Because like many families in the B.C. area where he prowled, I believe there were more than 11 victims. The authorities had long closed the case. They wanted it shut.

Olson was serving 11 concurrent life sentences, one for each murder he confessed to. But I knew the parents were still waiting to know for certain, to lay their kids to rest in a way that brought peace and closure. And if there was a chance I could find something new, I had to try, no matter how Olson tried to play games and spin lines.

If I wanted to continue these calls, I had to keep them secret. But I did confide in someone, a friend and mentor who wanted to help. I've asked Peter Worthington to join us today, and he's here. Oh, okay. And he's talking with us on the line. I think all three of us can talk. Hello, Peter.

How are you doing?

Peter Worthington is, of course, Nat's grandpa, Pete.

However I had explained it to myself, I knew that what I was doing, when it eventually came out, would be met with criticism. Olson had been banned from talking to the media by a gag order, imposed after he'd sent letters detailing his crimes to the families of the victims. I'd be accused of giving him a platform and the attention he desperately craved.

So I wanted cover, and legendary journalist Peter Worthington, he would do.
