Exactly.

#861 - Dr Marissa Harrison - The Dark Psychology Of Female Serial Killers

I would say the outlier is Eileen Wuornos because she shot men, left their bodies in the woods to decompose and rob them. I mean, so you have the financial motive there. But, I mean, she was really abused. She had some mental illness. She was a psychopath, et cetera, et cetera. So I don't know if she was really the outlier there.

Again, I think even in the absence of any diagnosis that I have read, you've got to be mentally ill to do something like this.

So I don't know if there's any psychological outliers, but if you name a mental disorder, I have seen it in serial killers, female serial killers, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders, Munchausen syndrome by proxy, now called factitious disorder imposed on another. So if you name it, It's a borderline personality disorder. It's represented in serial killers.

Interesting. So I never studied killer couples and I'll tell you why. I wanted to study psychology and I wanted to know what we call the autogenic motive, like coming from you. So if this is my husband and we're killing, how do I know who it came from? How do I know who thought of these things or who persuaded whom to do what? I don't know. So I never studied paired serial killers.

There is a pair I'm thinking about. I've not studied them. But the pair from the United Kingdom, was it Ian and, sorry, Mira Hadley, is it?

So what's really interesting about them, and I'll just maybe go on with a little tangent here, but please follow me. I don't even really remember his last name, but I remember her. And from what I recall, and I have some friends from Britain, have some family from Britain, they tell me she is one of the most hated people in Britain. I'm like, yeah, but wasn't it Ian's idea? Yeah.

And they're like, yeah, but people hate her. Why? I think because she violated the female role. She was a good looking woman who enticed kids to go on a journey or whatever those awful people did to those kids. And people hate her more for being the accomplice than they hate him for coming up with the crimes. He chopped somebody up with an ax. Right? But they hate Mira Headley.
