After watching this series I feel sorry for many serial killers. (Not that they shouldn't pay for their crimes), But they seem to have gone through horrific stuff by the people who are supposed to be raising them to be good people.
Steve Scutt - Unfortunately during this time period, it just wasn't widely available and not like the services we have today. Back in the old days this kind of stuff wasn't talked about. And many serial killers that were born during this era that all came from similar backgrounds never had any psychiatric intervention.
It definitely makes you wonder! If he had been brought up in a loving home, all the lives that would have been spared . That is why I don't believe in the saying that "everything happens for a reason"
Yeah, if we refer to epigenetics, it could be argued that his schizophrenia was caused by his awful childhood. Sometimes genetics will only express themselves after the right conditions are meant.
I feel so bad for him, he was so sad and desperate to make friends that he stole money to bribe people to be his friend! Those parents were horrible and were the cause of all of this havoc!
It is to me, but I have pastors in the family and we hear all sorts of things those kids survived without posing their humanity. Its nature and nurture.
these serial killer files videos always make me feel so sad because I'd say pretty much 9 times out of 10 the killer is abused in childhood and sure they may have had a genetic predisposition to becoming a killer but the likelihood is that the abuse was a large factor in the occurrence of mental illness and I just feel like it's such a shame because they could have had such a nicer life if their parents had just been decent and done their job as a parent :(
We seem to need a certification, degree, or some other type of license in all jobs in life...but the biggest job, being a parent, requires none. These two monsters had no right to adopt any child, if they had been assessed they would have failed.
this is why i hate mental health services, how can a person been in and out of inpatient hospital so many times and not have any professionals working there notice there's been serious psychological damage?
I'm actually not surprised he turned out to be evil. If you suffer so much when you're just a child then suffering and violence is all you know later in life plus he was schizophrenic
His crimes are inexcusable, but you have to feel a little bit bad for the psychos that have awful childhoods. It's hard not to wonder what they'd have been like if they had grown up in normal enviornments.
Easy for you to say ,if you know biblically demons can easy manipulate and possess your mind to pure evil to the ones who been mentally abused . Look in to it it seems like mental problems in reality but its spiritual mind controlling from these demons.
That poor son of his... being forced to abuse and kill people... If he is alive, I really hope he got the help he deserved in order to live a good and healthy life instead of going the same path as his father...
Joseph's parents deserve to have their tongues torn out for telling him at the tender age of six that the doctors had 'fixed his little bird' . They set him out on a life of paranoia and were totally responsible for all that followed .
Has anyone researched is his behavior drastically changed after receiving the hammer strike to the head? I've done a lot of research on probation era gangsters and one had a serious head injury. His personality drastically changed, he started doing very sadistic, dangerous, criminal things...he was sent to jail. While there he was diagnosed with schizophrenia, which we now know is genetic. You can't get it from a serious blow to the head. But you'd be amazed how many people have had serious head traumas and where diagnosed as schizophrenic. I come from an abusive home. Some of the things this man endured as a child I did too. I was in a battered woman's shelter pretty early in life. But my mom went back toy dad. The cycle of abuse tends to repeat itself. I know I, as any other human being, am capable of horrible things. But I refuse to victimize another living creature as I'd be just like my father. Abuse and torture are something one can never get over from, most people repeat the cycle.
I was also abused as a child and was taken into foster care at the age of 5. I was never able to stay in a home for very long though. So just know your not alone. I vowed I would break the cycle of abuse as well. I took a long time and a lot of pain for things to get better but they eventually did. I’m 18 now. My life has been hard, but things are getting better. I hope it helps to know your not alone and that things will get better.
My mom also tried to burn my hands on the stove once because I stole $20 from my cousin. I was only 7 tho :/ not justifying it but I personally would never do that to my future children
After watching a lot of the serial killer files I realize that mostly everyone I watched was traumatized at a young age which lead to them being they way they are, it’s quite sad really
Im confused as to how he got the nickname "The Shoemaker" I mean aside from his childhood training to become a cobbler. With a name like The Shoemaker, you would think he made shoes out of the skin of his victims or something.
He was a very highly regarded cobbler and a lot of his delusions had to do with "fixing people" through orthopedic shoes and inserts. Honestly this video doesn't even BEGIN to delve into his mind.

Nivya Prakruti some are born wanting to kill because something is wrong with their brain, they have little to no empathy. Some are made into killers, sadly.
Nivya Prakruti His parents flat out deny any abuse, but I'm certain something must have been done to him by a family member, neighbour, stranger, teacher or classmate :/
Nivya Prakruti Very true! But in terms of abuse, there may have been some. They say it's a cross-over between sexual development and violence, so somewhere around puberty, but who knows. It's not commonly disputed that an individual (especially a child) would be so without an environmental trigger, but should this be an exception, then Dahmer would be a prime example of nature over nurture. His parents, if knowing of something, seem to want to hide it forever, but hopefully the truth will come out.
This is one of the saddest stories I've ever heard. People have the opportunity to overcome their horrible childhood traumas and make a positive difference in the world, especially with their own families. Unfortunately Joseph's mind and heart warped from his own twisted sense of entitlement, which involved hurting other people even worse than he was hurt. Imagine your only legacy to be inflicting a tremendous amount of pain upon others. I have a hard enough time living with mistakes I have made without something like that hanging over my head. Such a tragedy. I'm glad they were caught, because they were fixing to be prolific serial killers. I hope Michael chose another way.
TwentyØneAttackØnTheCrybabies I get creeped out when he ends it like he does here, that Michael changed his name, moved out of state and no one has seen him since. I mean, I get he was under the control of his serial killer father, but being exposed to that mindset, potentially having a predisposition to schizophrenia, yeah.. I'd like to make sure he isn't my neighbor, or that I have warning first
TwentyØneAttackØnTheCrybabies I don't. I find it intriguing to know about murderers I never knew and what they went through and what their possible motives are. It could be because my Aunt was murdered at a young age before I was born that intrigues me about their motives
TwentyØneAttackØnTheCrybabies they tick and act just like all of us. youve thought of killing someone one way or another at some point. the difference is...they turned their murderous thought into action whereas we have kept it just a thought.
pyledog + true but it would be most likely killing someone we knew out of hurt/anger/revenge. Not random/innocent strangers who have done us no personal harm.
I always feel so very sad watching the parts where they were children. It is honestly so sad and devastating that they treated him that way. It makes me so mad how anyone could do that to a little boy. If half of these killers recieved love from their families they would not have turned into killers. Its so so sad.
Rob, this coming from arguably your biggest fan! We need more episodes on Serial Killer files and Twisted Tens, and if you run out of Serial Killers to cover for episodes, probably a few of us can turn into one, in order to provide you more content. :P You're the best anyways and we miss Joopis's arts.
Tragic. Sometimes you can actually understand why people end up like this. It doesn’t make it right, but it also doesn’t make you hate them, which for me is rare with these killer stories.
Zach Antle meeeeee ....ppl don't be here to actually enjoy these videos they just subscribe to ppl channels to see if they can be first and comment "first" smfh so childish and annoying af like dude who gives a fuck if your first or last smfh
I had a worse life than him. Got my freedom as an adult after being trafficked at the age of one . Yes i was full of anger . But never hurt a soul. My only good memory about my childhood is caring for sick stray animals. I chosed to use my pain to as force to save lives. Now i work in emergency as a trauma specialist. I haven't created my own family yet but all children around the world are my family. I live my childhood through their smiles . I learned to receive and give love . I hope any person who reads my comment to understand that we are humans and capable to love. I promise you pain will get better if u try. There's a thrill in helping others the same Way u can get a thrill in harming self or others. Please consider. Much love Greetings from an African girl
I feel so bad for people like this - what they have been thru in their younger lives. I don't think their actions are okay AT ALL, but neither do I blame them. I wished humanity would stop torturing each other, avoiding tragedies like these...
Yay! I know Rob can do whatever he wants with his channel, but these serial killer files are the reason I subbed to his channel. It's great to see another one. Thanks Rob!
Missy Cabic To work for free in their shoe-repair shop. There's a book about him, called "The Shoemaker: The Anatomy of A Psychotic" by Flora Schreiber, the same author who wrote "Sybil."
I was raped at three by my cousin sexually abused by my priest at ten, beaten by my dad often, he held my hands over the flames on the stove because I had no toys and was playing with my mom's Bobbie pins . My mom an angry woman would make me kneel on uncooked rice while she read the Bible at me..sent to military school at ten was my only relief...rather than kill them as they made me angry, I chose forgiveness..
Eric Rivers you should've beaten them down put them both kneeling on rice, then got them to read scripture about respect and repentance. Only then when you heard their repentance get them to read scripture about forgiveness, then forgive them and walk away. As for the rapist they are all condemned in the bible to have a millstone tied around their necks and cast into the sea. Pedophiles cannot be forgiven in this life.
Sorry man, but I had a similar upbringing and I still want to hurt the people who did this to me. You are resilient I'll give you that. That is a trait I don't have, but if it was between me and giving out the punishment they deserve, I'd beat them within an inch of their lives without remorse. Forgiveness can kiss my ass.
well, okay then... What is wrong with these people? Yeah, just treat your child worse than dirt, seriously people treat dirt better than this poor psycho
This will probably be lost in the comments but, your channel is so fucking amazing. The way you execute every episode is extremely professional, not to mention the editor and the artist ( truly beautiful work guys!!) This may seem like a random compliment, but I've been bingeing your videos and it's hard to not comment on the evolution of your channel. It's so amazing to witness the progress you're making. Thank you for the videos, they truly make life more mysterious.
What a complete crappy start in life. No, not every abused person turns into a killer. His adoptive patents didn't kill. They might as well have though.
I'm noticing a trend that a lot of serial killers never had a normal, stable childhood. It should be vital for children to not be exposed to such cruelties so as to protect them and society.
I stopped watching the series for a while and now that I've come back all I can say is what the actual FUCK! I mean it's so creepy! but still good job Rob your quality has not dropped.
"Be sure to watch another video!" Rob, you're not helping me get my sleep schedule straightened out. It's 5 am and I'm watching a string of your old videos. Stop tempting me.
The backgrounds of these serial killers are very fascinating and just makes you think "Don't know what the fuck is wrong with people but I love it." Edit: just my personal opinion but I feel that the orphanage should do secret checks (may not be possible) so as to see if parents are actually treating the children right. Sick fucks. *Love it*
This is one of the dangers of putting your child up for adoption. You can give them away and hope that this will lead to a better life than you can give them yourself, but it is never guaranteed. Had Joseph's biological mother not given him up for adoption, the Kallinger's wouldn't have gotten their grubby hands on him and he might have turned out differently.
This kind of thing is a rarity. Especially with how difficult it is to adopt these days vs. having your own kid/fostering. Evil people like these would have their own kid or foster now, not adopt a baby.
That man was born without a chance, point blank period. Life had dealt Joseph Kallinger a bad hand. He didn't even know his father. He had a mother who abandoned him. Been physically, and verbally abused by his sick adopted parents. Not to mention that he was gang raped by some neighborhood bullies. Am I excusing him for what he did? Not at all, but what he had been through as a kid would've drove anybody crazy.
His 'parents' are perfect examples of people who shouldn't have the responsibility of being parents.
Almightymegs I'm glad they no longer have the responsibility of living. I'm sure they are burning in hell now for what they did.
Killers are made not born. These bastards deserve to die.
Almightymegs and someone ( your mom) who raises a child to be comfortable judging others an acting as God is😕

I ask that question every time I hear a story like this
JazzyJames33 maybe, but there are most likely records confirming these things; he did have to go to the doctor, after all.

I mean, I get he was under the control of his serial killer father, but being exposed to that mindset, potentially having a predisposition to schizophrenia, yeah.. I'd like to make sure he isn't my neighbor, or that I have warning first
TwentyØneAttackØnTheCrybabies I don't. I find it intriguing to know about murderers I never knew and what they went through and what their possible motives are. It could be because my Aunt was murdered at a young age before I was born that intrigues me about their motives
TwentyØneAttackØnTheCrybabies they tick and act just like all of us. youve thought of killing someone one way or another at some point. the difference is...they turned their murderous thought into action whereas we have kept it just a thought.
pyledog + true but it would be most likely killing someone we knew out of hurt/anger/revenge. Not random/innocent strangers who have done us no personal harm.
Good job on the editing Paul.
I always feel so very sad watching the parts where they were children. It is honestly so sad and devastating that they treated him that way. It makes me so mad how anyone could do that to a little boy. If half of these killers recieved love from their families they would not have turned into killers. Its so so sad.
god, I feel bad for this guy, he never had a childhood. of course his mind would be fucked up.
Uses his kid as a helping hand. That's so messed up
they killed his other son. that's even more messed up.
Rob, this coming from arguably your biggest fan!
We need more episodes on Serial Killer files and Twisted Tens, and if you run out of Serial Killers to cover for episodes, probably a few of us can turn into one, in order to provide you more content. :P
You're the best anyways and we miss Joopis's arts.
Mohit Philip I take it your on his patreons list then if your his biggest fan
Damn 5 old lady’s chillen with $20k the hell was going on there
I LOVE this series! So excited whenever I see a new serial killer file upload :O
Tragic. Sometimes you can actually understand why people end up like this. It doesn’t make it right, but it also doesn’t make you hate them, which for me is rare with these killer stories.
I started screaming when I saw you'd uploaded new episode of Serial Killer files.
Thank u rob, god bless u
Glad to see you're back Rob c:
Rob is back with the serial files!!
Yaaay!!
Maria Fasching is my aunt that I never got to meet because of this man. Glad he suffered in the end. RIP Aunt Maria ❤️
I am addicted to this series! Great job!
Can we just make this a TV show already?!
"... and to this day has not been heard from since, and his whereabouts are unknown."
Whhhat?!?!?
Who is is sick to death of seeing notification squad and first comments all over the damn place? :D
NOTIFICATION SQUAD!!
Zach Antle second
First!
Zach Antle meeeeee ....ppl don't be here to actually enjoy these videos they just subscribe to ppl channels to see if they can be first and comment "first" smfh so childish and annoying af like dude who gives a fuck if your first or last smfh
Yes those types of comments are so damn stupid. I'm glad someone agrees with me
I had a worse life than him. Got my freedom as an adult after being trafficked at the age of one . Yes i was full of anger . But never hurt a soul. My only good memory about my childhood is caring for sick stray animals. I chosed to use my pain to as force to save lives. Now i work in emergency as a trauma specialist. I haven't created my own family yet but all children around the world are my family. I live my childhood through their smiles . I learned to receive and give love . I hope any person who reads my comment to understand that we are humans and capable to love. I promise you pain will get better if u try. There's a thrill in helping others the same Way u can get a thrill in harming self or others.
Please consider.
Much love
Greetings from an African girl
You are a brilliant woman ❤️
❤❤❤❤ much love to you ❤❤❤❤
My father was his psychologist for one year. He said kalllinger never lied. He was cooperative....and quite bright
No way are you being serious???
That's awesome that is son is running around completely damaged and unhinged. Good job Justice system. 🙄🙄🙄
His childhood was so heartbreaking 💔 omg
I just can't understand how someone could do that to a child. Sick.
I feel so bad for people like this - what they have been thru in their younger lives. I don't think their actions are okay AT ALL, but neither do I blame them. I wished humanity would stop torturing each other, avoiding tragedies like these...
Yay! I know Rob can do whatever he wants with his channel, but these serial killer files are the reason I subbed to his channel. It's great to see another one. Thanks Rob!
I can't think of abusing even a dog I adopted. How are this people even human beings to adopt a human child and abuse them . Oh god
Loved this intro! And the video. You're awesome
Why adopt a child, if you're just going to treat them like shit?
Missy Cabic I'm guessing for the tax deductible. Children are dependants, so a tax deduction is possible.
Missy Cabic To work for free in their shoe-repair shop. There's a book about him, called "The Shoemaker: The Anatomy of A Psychotic" by Flora Schreiber, the same author who wrote "Sybil."
Govt does such a poor job protecting children, I think they do it on purpose.
thank you! I watch your videos while im studying. i love your attitiude towards things
this channel is the only channel where i refuse to skip ads
Yes!! New serial killer files! So excited I got to catch it so fast with notifications 😀
my momma sed you tell a lot about someone from looking at they shoes, where they going, where they been.
Guys don't feel sorry for him oh my fuck
Like yeah he had a horrible childhood but for the love of god, that doesn't excuse what he did
I THINK THEY ARE JUST DESCRIBING THE CAUSE AND EFFECT, NOT RATIONALIZING THE MURDERS.
lorisdown yeah they are have you seen the comments
the new intro is fantastically well done it's crazy seeing how far Rob and his team have come since the first SKF
I love falling asleep to his videos, his voice is so soothing.
Oh my god I saw the thumbnail and i was like 'YO IS THAT TIM CURRY??'
1,000 years as a butterfly 😂
fuck dude, this was sad, i feel bad but i still like it, thanks rob and everyone else who helped with the production
I get excited whenever you post a serial killers file episode!
this was so well made rob. thanks man, you are the best at this. please keep em coming
My name is Joseph so i was just like "Hey! Das me!" I put myself in his perspective and now im sad
I was raped at three by my cousin sexually abused by my priest at ten, beaten by my dad often, he held my hands over the flames on the stove because I had no toys and was playing with my mom's Bobbie pins . My mom an angry woman would make me kneel on uncooked rice while she read the Bible at me..sent to military school at ten was my only relief...rather than kill them as they made me angry, I chose forgiveness..
Eric Rivers so sorry that happened to you, you are such a blessing❤️❤️
Eric Rivers you should've beaten them down put them both kneeling on rice, then got them to read scripture about respect and repentance. Only then when you heard their repentance get them to read scripture about forgiveness, then forgive them and walk away.
As for the rapist they are all condemned in the bible to have a millstone tied around their necks and cast into the sea.
Pedophiles cannot be forgiven in this life.
Sorry man, but I had a similar upbringing and I still want to hurt the people who did this to me. You are resilient I'll give you that. That is a trait I don't have, but if it was between me and giving out the punishment they deserve, I'd beat them within an inch of their lives without remorse. Forgiveness can kiss my ass.
well, okay then... What is wrong with these people? Yeah, just treat your child worse than dirt, seriously people treat dirt better than this poor psycho
This will probably be lost in the comments but, your channel is so fucking amazing. The way you execute every episode is extremely professional, not to mention the editor and the artist ( truly beautiful work guys!!) This may seem like a random compliment, but I've been bingeing your videos and it's hard to not comment on the evolution of your channel. It's so amazing to witness the progress you're making. Thank you for the videos, they truly make life more mysterious.
What he experienced during his childhood......... Will make you "UNSTABLE" IN SO MANY WAYS!
Jeffery Dahmer? Soon?
Brian Escalante 3 months later
What a complete crappy start in life.
No, not every abused person turns into a killer.
His adoptive patents didn't kill. They might as well have though.
These events would have never happen if he lived a normal child hood !!!
I'm noticing a trend that a lot of serial killers never had a normal, stable childhood. It should be vital for children to not be exposed to such cruelties so as to protect them and society.
Great pacing, editing, and love the illustrations.
He also claimed to hear the song "turn turn turn" from the Byrds that would spur on the murders.
I hope Michael managed to have a decent and stable life after leaving jail and changing his name . His father was to blame , not he .
I stopped watching the series for a while and now that I've come back all I can say is what the actual FUCK! I mean it's so creepy! but still good job Rob your quality has not dropped.
AHHHHH YAS ROB I LOVE THE ENDING. "Case......... *dramatic pause* closed."
"Be sure to watch another video!"
Rob, you're not helping me get my sleep schedule straightened out. It's 5 am and I'm watching a string of your old videos. Stop tempting me.
The backgrounds of these serial killers are very fascinating and just makes you think "Don't know what the fuck is wrong with people but I love it."
Edit: just my personal opinion but I feel that the orphanage should do secret checks (may not be possible) so as to see if parents are actually treating the children right. Sick fucks. *Love it*
"A thousand years as a butterfly and was on a mission from God" IT'S WRONG FOR ME TO LAUGH BUT
Watching rob while taking a shit at school feels good man
2 years later, do you still think about that shit you took?
Good stuff Rob, thanks for posting!
Nice! a new one! Keep it up Rob! you have an amazing team doing these
This is one of the dangers of putting your child up for adoption. You can give them away and hope that this will lead to a better life than you can give them yourself, but it is never guaranteed. Had Joseph's biological mother not given him up for adoption, the Kallinger's wouldn't have gotten their grubby hands on him and he might have turned out differently.
This kind of thing is a rarity. Especially with how difficult it is to adopt these days vs. having your own kid/fostering. Evil people like these would have their own kid or foster now, not adopt a baby.
he died March 26th 1996 at the age of 60. 666 anyone?
That's a pretty hard reach.
This is a murder case, not the X-Files
MARCH IS 3RD MOTH X 2 = 6!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You are making far fetch and selective correlations .
You can see it a couple ways
People make you evil it is a sad world 😢😭
Hapoubro *your
Your show is awesome Rob. Better than anything they have on TV in this genre
That man was born without a chance, point blank period. Life had dealt Joseph Kallinger a bad hand. He didn't even know his father. He had a mother who abandoned him. Been physically, and verbally abused by his sick adopted parents. Not to mention that he was gang raped by some neighborhood bullies. Am I excusing him for what he did? Not at all, but what he had been through as a kid would've drove anybody crazy.
