Edmund Kemper: The Life of the Co-Ed Killer

True Crime, Book 2

De: Hourly History

Narrado por: Adam Schulmerich

To the average American, there was nothing out of the ordinary about Edmund Kemper before 1973. Standing at six-foot-nine, the young man was a giant, but he was gentle, soft spoken, and shy. He lived with his mother into his mid-20s and frequented local bars, cozying up to police officers - a job he had once hoped to hold himself but couldn’t since he was too tall. This was one reality of Kemper's life - the reality he wanted those around him to see. There was another side to the man though, a much darker side. Kemper's actions in his life shocked America, who dubbed him the Co-Ed Killer for his urge to murder and violate co-ed girls in Northern California.

Great Book & Great Reader

As a reader of true crime books this book was a super star. I give great credit in the story reader

Story - 4/5

"Edmund Kemper: The Life of the Co-Ed Killer" by Hourly History is actually a quite good, but fairly brief history of the killer.

Very interesting because it gives one a pretty good idea how this giant was driven insane, and why he did what he did.

“When I see a pretty girl walking down the street, I think two things. One part wants to be real nice and sweet, and the other part wonders what her head would look like on a stick.”

Recommendation- for True Crime aficionados who are interested in the criminal mind.

Too short. Hardhitting research or depth.

Basically, someone reads a Wki page. Very short. Not worth the money. Read Deviant on Ed Gein. Far more interesting.

Not Bad

For a short “review” of Kemper and his crimes, it was pretty good. Probably a good place for those who don’t know much about him to start.

Short and too the point

Super short and to the point. If you want something with more detail this isn’t it. Narration was great though, great performance. Super underwhelming book.
