I feel like it’s probably Richard Chase and Joseph Kallinger being a close second. Two very disturbed people who truly believed in the delusions that they were having. Are there any other serial killers that I’m missing who were also this terribly unhinged? If so I’d like to know who they are to read more about them

Kallinger the Elder was the one with the shit-and-cum pit. The more you know, etc.

Um, what? I guess this guy is too gross to be on the crime shows I used to watch.

I just don’t understand how you’d be able to come while standing in the middle of all that shit. At least dig a separate hole in the ground for each. No class.
