Serial killers are natural deceivers, but hearing them describe their crimes in their own words has big value. It can help us understand how their minds work, and gives investigators the tools to catch future killers. In this episode, DEVIANT host Dan Szematowicz revisits some of the show's more intense serial killer confessions. Serial killers Israel Keyes, Anthony Sowell and Joseph Daniel Miller tell stories of their killings, and open up windows into their dark souls.
