    You know who’s breathing a sigh of relief ? The guy who was tied up in the room when they arrested MacArthur. Can you imagine later finding out he was a serial killer - and just how close you came in being his next victim ?😬

      Well, you could be right, yes he was young then, but look at Jeffrey Dahmer who first killed at 18, then didn't until at least 10 years later...
      We'd have to know if McArthur was in the same area at that time.
      Also, his parents looked after many young boys in his youth.
      He may have abused some of them or been abused by them...

    I think both scenarios are possible, that he has been killing since his 20s OR that he just started at age 66. If he started at 66, the first one could have been an accidental death during some sort of sex act, he then panicked, disposed of the body. Afterward, he became excited about the idea of what he had done, and how he got away with it, decided to do it again...and so on.

    I do think MacArthur was responsible for at least some of the murders back in the 1970s, refered at 3:40
    While some question why nothing in the 80s or 90s, it's been shown that some serial killers to go thru 'dormant' phases...I think Macarthur's 2010-17 killings are just too sophisticated for an elderly amateur. The 1970s murders, killer murdered victims mostly in their homes, leaving body where the killing occured. Most of the 2010s killings involve hiding and dismembering the bodies...in the 70s MacArthur had a wife and no place really private to take prospective victims...by 2010 he not only had his own apartment, with just a roommate but he also had that storage building for his gardening business..and a van. A mobile killing scene and literally the tools of his 'other' trade, to hide the bodies and evidence.

    Not only should a doctor know that you should not move someone with a severe head injury, but he also had to know that a bed is the WORST place to give CPR due to the need for strong chest compressions that the softness of a mattress would interfere with. It pretty much guarantees the death of the victim, regardless of the severity of the initial situation.

One of them went on record as saying to women, "If you're assaulted by a man, you may as well lay back and enjoy it, because resisting will only anger him and make it worse for you". Swear to god.

    The world is way more accepting to lgbt, so much so that I as a straight guy am following the story in hopes that they come to some sort of justice for the victims.
    And the police are much more open and invested in lgbt, the thing this program fails to appreciate is that we live in a time were today everything is hyper focused and blown out of proportion.

It is crazy. Rest in peace to the victims and their families, I hope they find peace and salvation no matter where they may be. It is unfair how Bruce is already 66, technically a senior, the trial is so big in scope and he may not live until 80 for example. This is crazy.
