    My stepmom knew Robert yates's daughter and witnessed the entire meltdown of the family after Robert was caught. The whole family essentially changed their name and moved out of Spokane just to get away from people attacking them.

      He, Ridgway and Bianchi (The Hillside Strangler) are all at the same prison. Rob and Ken are on the same unit, they pretty much avoid each other. Rob met Gary a few years ago while he was still on DR. Gary has Alzheimer’s so Rob said he was kind of off but liked to talk about religion.

      The Pacific Northwest has been home to a number of serial killers. John Douglas, the FBI profiler of the Green River killer, once called the region “America's killing fields,” according to former Los Angeles police detective Mark Fuhrman, who grew up in the Tacoma area.

He didn't hear about him until the military ball when some of his army buddies filled him in on what happened. Crazy stuff

    6:00 "we have to ask ourselves why", why did growing up in a normal family do nothing to prevent his murderous impulses? But it's obvious: psychopaths are born, not raised. Granny passed on her murderous predisposition, not through upbringing but through inheritance. It's unbelievable that the commentator guy twists this into saying it became an "intergenerational message that women are very dangerous." OMG. Even if it were so, why didn't his father become a murderer, then? He was way closer tot he "message". BS, people, BS. Psychopaths are born, some of them will develop sadistic sexual desires and a lust for power and will become serial murderers; those who don't, become CEOs instead :D

      Inherited, raised etc.
      Narcissists are created by the environment they grew up in.
      If he has narcissist traits he could've been created by the environment he grew up in as well.
      Depends upon his upbringing.
      Early on in life, narcs manipulate to get what they want.
      As they grow older, those manipulative tactics get more deliberate and targeted, all while their anger and frustration inside grows.
      By adulthood, they are masters at manipulating and controlling others.
      Along with those traits, they grow more angry, resentful and frustrated..but you hardly see that side of them.
      As for murdering innocent people, their playground is vunerable people, never anyone who is healthy and strong, with a good head on their shoulders that would stand up to them.
      Vunerable people are easy targets. Narcs are lazy and anyone they sense that has a head on their shoulders isn't a good target for them. They steer clear away from those kinds of people.
      It's too much of a challenge to manipulate someone who could be on to their odd behavior so they don't bother.
      Narcs never prey on healthy minded people.
      Narcs go through life studying others behaviors..They're known to be quiet, shy and not aggressive, but while they appear to be shy and quiet, they are that way because they are studying people.
      They're known to copy manurisms and actual content of conversations. They know they are different and have to study people to learn how to communicate and get by on life.
      There's so much more to narcissism than what most believe is someone over the top loving themselves..that's actually the opposite of covert narcissists which are considered stealth because they are most dangerous..They cause not only psychological damage to their targets in relationships but have the tendency to actually kill, silence a person who is a threat to them without a care in the world.
      They are true wolves in sheep's clothing.

Hopefully he will be on the podcast soon. He was just telling me that at one point he was housed with Gary Ridgway. He had a few brief conversations with him. Gary told him that the facility barely lets him communicate with anyone on the outside even close family.

    I live in Washington State, and Spokane always amazes me when it's discussed nationally. It is actually a fair sized city, but few people know about it. I feel bad for people trying to put together a video because there are no iconic Spokane shots to be used in a video. There is a clock tower in a park downtown, and there is the skyline, but otherwise, it's just a whole bunch of shots of railroad underpasses and extremely undistinguished streets.
    Spokane is pronounced Spoke-Anne, by the way.
    People who live in this part of the world often refer to it as SpoCompton. It has some of the poorest neighborhoods on the West Coast, and there are areas where it's kind of scary to be out at night. There's a beautiful walking path beside the river, where unfortunately people are often beaten or violated.
    When I lived in Spokane and was doing a residency, there was a horrifying incident in which a woman on meth tried to lead her four children across a four-lane street that had a concrete median in the center. All of her children were killed. In Spokane, that's just how life goes. On the other hand, there are some really beautiful parks and a lot of good people and the cost of living is phenomenally lower than Seattle. I just didn't like my years in Spokane, obviously.

      OMGod, what a story. When I lived there, it was pretty much a big Cow-Town USA - mostly about farming, and processing beef. It was a trading post for fur trappings, and hookers, when it began - that's it main energy - and the hookers hung out in a certain part of town. I hated Spokane - the energy was dense. It was all about trucks, drinking all the time, and I could not find any friends at all. I lived there for 3 yrs, then moved on up to Seattle and began the time of my life. (I would never go there now!) It wasn't so crazy - my time was 1984-86. ALL of USA used to be relatively good, (compared to now), until the chemicals came flowing into the streets and there was money to bad, and corrupt officials on the take. This is how you destroy everything, corruption - no one understands - it's not what the corrupt puppets point and say is WRONG (they always CREATE it - in a sinister way)it's ALL due to the corruption. You have BAD at the top in any hierarchy EVERYTHING will reflect it - and if people are so dumbed down, they can't discern it, they will lose their free will and potential of life. That's just how it goes. I loved Seattle until the chemicals were FLOWED into the streets and people. It was heaven on Earth and now is a complete nightmare. And every one just pretends and not see the million homeless in the streets and tranny twerkers reading to gradeschoolers. Now you must understand why Spokane is so bad....it never used to be. It was just dense, dense energy.

    The first murderous of Yates schock me for many days cause there's no reason to make this. Is not a normal person, Yates has fantasies of death instead the body one of the victims was buried outside the window of the room where Robert slept with his wife. Is Melody Murfin, one of the last victims of him.

    No, the switch being flipped concept relates to suddenly acting on behavior that you've been obsessing over. We called it snapping. It can and does happen with extreme results. It doesn't mean you suddenly become something you're not. The expert has it wrong conceptually. These English experts are far less than their American counterparts. It's a mistake to use them when they can use experts who were part of the cases. This should be done throughout the show.

    The killing of prostitutes shows how people, especially men who use their services, think of them as trash and disposable and there is a lack of protection for prostitutes. Working girls, women, people who work the streets should be protected, a place where they can go register as a sex worker, and the identities of men who use their services should be taken before they use them. Prostitution should she legalized and protected to protect these poor people who turn to this work because they ate desperate!

    I think there should be a law, which every state agrees, in which anyone committing 2+ 1st degree murders, are NOT eligible to any plea deal, and are given a mandatory death penalty; states that don’t conduct them, will transfer the murderer to the nearest state that does!
    In addition, it would apply to anyone currently serving life sentences for murder!
