This reminded me a bit of Dr. H.H. Holmes, the Victorian American serial killer who was also a con-man and killed for profit. Both took advantage of chaotic times, and both were prolific at what they did, including dismemberment of their victims- but with the ultimate goal being financial gain. Both trafficked (or promised to traffic) some of their victims to other places, and offered lodging. These cases were an ocean apart and nearly 50 years between, but their similarities struck me.
@@EdgyMTB……Shipman didn’t profit from his murders other than what sick pleasure he got from ending lives. It’s true he did falsify a will which ultimately brought about his undoing but it was a pathetic effort at forgery and would never have been successful. The typewriter he used to forge the document was still in his office. The forgery was full of errors. The co-signers knew nothing of it. It was never going to be accepted by the victim’s family. It is believed he did it so as to get caught and bring an end to his killing.
The historical backstory is almost more interesting than the serial killer story. Clearly researched and well presented. I always thought, even I wanted to murder people ( which I don't), getting rid of the bodies just seams way too cumbersome.
Can't even imagine how much work it would be to kill someone and get rid of the body. That's probably why a lot of these guys that get away with it are more interested in the actual body than the killings. To keep up the adrenaline.
So you don’t have a problem with the morality of murder, you’ll just find it too ‘cumbersome’ to dispose of your victims. Well, I suppose we should be thankful there’s at least something that’s stopping you from being an English Petiot lol
I met a 4-year-old psychopath when I was the same age. The speaker is being prejudiced when saying it starts at 7. From birth wouldn't be an exaggeration.
I taught a 4 year old posiopath, I tried to tell the school, his mother. This child was without conscience and lied constantly, said sorry when caught out but never meant it or learned empathy. Totally evil.
It just doesn’t make sense to say this because little tiny kids already have no empathy. It’s taught and developed around 5/6 years old, as a young kiddo. My daughter isn’t very empathetic but definitely not a sociopath lol. Little kids can’t be properly tested for things such as these.
This story should be a movie; an antihero movie with a very handsome actor (to account for his charisma) and all the war, resistance, social and geopolitical factors that contributed clearly portrayed.
Never heard of this guy, Petiot. Very interesting documentary. How sad for all his victims, trying to survive a war,being a jew,and then to die to an (unsuspected) murderer. I wonder why his wife survived as she had a son to him,yet Louise was killed?
Gestapo raced against time to bring him to justice? They had very similar goals and methods, it is hard to understand why he didn't tell them about his "achievements".
*** 💘 Thank you 😊 💓 🙏 * for this informative 👏 🙏 & educational documentary 👏! It is so well done. Yes * Long Live beautiful 😍 ❤ 💕 🇺🇦 Ukraine & Our Democratic Countries!
I was married to one of those. The psychopathic brain runs in the family. Experiencing two major traumas before the age is 7 he didn’t stand a chance. Very covert, he gets kicks out of all kinds of pain. Despite being a math genius he ended up with a job handling people. Being the best at it he made 10’s of thousands in bonuses.
The british have for many years have the knack of putting together a fascinating story, well researched documentary and it always helps to have a excellent narration, with a english accent just brings a touch of class it carries the story along very nicely
@@jonkline709yes ofcoure British politicians and American politicians, Russian, China, Japan, African history and politicians, Muslim countrys turkey the Ottoman empire, the barbary pirates, Saudi Arabia. Iran, plenty of history in Europe mind
Narcissists in war only see opportunity in the disruption of other's lives, they have no care for the fact of that disruption because it doesn't affect them personally.
I believe that . The ‘Resistance’ always seemed a highly romanticized ‘after the fact’ retelling - While it of course existed, we’re ‘courageous’ and obviously did ‘good works,’ seems like ‘look how we were cleverly fighting all along’
As is the way of most of all people- not just the French- I also heard that there was no net gain from their activities due to the draconian reprisals of the Germans
As long as we still have democracy and rule of law we do not need anti-democratic, illegal and extra-legal “resistance” movements. We should be doing our utmost to encourage a renewed faith in our liberal democratic institutions, egalitarianism, civic-mindedness, and rule of law. We should encourage all wage-earning, working class and small entrepreneurial citizens to join together regardless of the divisive “culture war” beliefs being cynically sown to divide us from each other by the minority hierarchical oligarchic ruling class elite and their enablers among the political class and the more hysterical, non-factual “media” types. If there’s anything we should be “resisting” it’s the “culture war” itself, so that we wage-earning working class people can focus instead on the material economic issues we all share an interest in, regardless of the cultural differences being cynically emphasized by the wealthy, only to make us suspicious of one another, and to tear us apart from each other.
✡️ I grew up with sleeves riding up tatooed arms and smiling faces with eyes permanently etched in grief. Survivor's homes, in an era of large families, 1-2 children, a strange pervasive silence permeated & a palpable pall hit you when you walked in the door. Incredibly sad environments, the children, my contemporaries, damaged.
@@MademoiselleButterfly grief, anguish, guilt almost unclaimed. Just there, like suitcases in a room that everyone tiptoed around. I could tell the minute I walked in if a survivor(s) lived there. I never really thought about it at the time with the exception of 2 stark incidents of feeling almost overwhelmed by it as a teenager going to two different homes with the classmates that lived there. That was when I began the thought process of what their reality was in comparison to my own. I was a rarity, a shiksa from a large family in a primarily Jewish neighborhood with many non Jewish friends in other neighborhoods.
That's very interesting. You have described my home. I grew up in Los Angeles in the 50's and the 60's. It was a sad and gloomy household. My mother was a very dark, damaging figure.
@user.te4of2... . Hope you are a writer - you evoke with such casual & enviable brilliance. & - yes, we still inhabit those corridors, catacombs - now being reforged in newly minted grotesque forms. Cinema Noir currently my only refuge from the tortures of involuntary participatory trauma. Write - as balm, and scribe - please.
@@adimeter I just read your comment and felt that heaviness on my heart you understand too well, and I haven't felt since I wrote my comments. Ha tov ve ha metiv. Patricia
59:07 (from French): "where we see Doctor Petiot reappear: one of his accomplices reveals his entry into the service of the Gestapo, his disputes with the Germans, the assassinations committed on their orders"
Interesting and informative. Excellent photography job enabling viewers to better understand what the orator was describing. Special thanks to the guest speakers sharing personal researched information. Along with Dr. Petiot/business associates & last if not least the unaware victims😇😇😇😇. Making this documentary more authentic and possible!!!
Could you please do some documentaries on the evil and murderous Communist USSR? Or China? Id also like to see your take on the intentional starving deaths of millions, the Holodomor.
The French Navy is the only Western navy were 2 tots of alcohol are still given to each sailor daily the reason being that after numerous rigorous tests, its been determined that alcohol in no way interferes with waving a white flag
This is a case of evil within evil well wrapped up in an enigma . I had not heard of this case and I live in France but it is undoubtedly the most interesting case of criminal subterfuge documented on You Tube .I must say it also highlights my innate dislike of the French whom in my dealings with them remain unpredictable and untrustworthy . The leopard does not change it's spots . Well down !
This is a very very interesting story it reminds me of H.H Holmes in the USA. I cannot believe he only got charged with 27 yet, he committed 63 murders. I really feel bad for the children and the innocent people that just wanted to leave all the hate of the Nazis 😮😢😢😢
*** 💘 France 🇫🇷 ♥, I believe, worked very hard * as a collective effort 👏 * to fight the bad guys of World War 2. Unfortunately * Europe was not totally prepared 😪 😕 😔 * to fight the enemy * at that time.
Not “All” French citizens helped the Nazis, very few supported the Germans. There was a large French resistance working feverishly with the Allies to win the war against Germany. The same can be said, that ‘not all’ Germans were Nazis and supported Hitler.
Psychopaths don't suffer the mounting anxiety that torture brings, they are unreactive. They also aren't courageous, they just lack fear, which is not the same thing. The book, "The Psychopath Test" by Jon Ronson is really good!
He's a psychopath.. he prob enjoyed it.. lol But as he is psychologically unwell,I guess the torture didn't affect his psyche as it would a "normal" person. IDK?
If you look into his eyes (this always has to be done without distraction(s), for instance, one often has to actively disregard the rest of the subject's facial expressions, if necessary by covering up the rest of the face, cause the further expressions are purely physical in nature and completely unrelated to the person's deeper, possibly hidden emotions etc, believe it or not! - which means for means of interpretation the rest of the face in the image one examines is more of a distraction than that it would be an actual source of truthful information (which fits the fact a psychopath is always a total actor)... if you observe the expression in those eyes and those eyes alone, like on the photograph shown at 14:03, you WILL see all of the intent, the hatred, all of the inhuman(e) sentiment that is there, and that is (present) in the person being observed. The Eyes Never Lie; the expression in one's eyes always reveals the truth!

Petain , was and is a scapegoat. At the time of WW2 he was 84, not in good health, possibly showing early signs of dementia. He was reluctant to take the job , but wished to serve his country, and was was terrified that it would once again be destroyed.
In the midst of germany before the war also had a serial killer and the gestapo refused to believe it was a german eventually he was caught and gillotined but litterally amassed many murders .
