Born to Kill? (2005)

Episode Overview

Donald Pee Wee Gaskins, a hearse-driving redneck standing just 5'4", earned the title of America's most ruthless man and became South Carolina's most notorious mass murderer when authorities uncovered the reality behind his claims of a personal graveyard. Police eventually unearthed the remains of 13 individuals, including men, women, and children. Gaskins, however, boasted from prison that he had taken more than a hundred lives, often subjecting his victims to rape and torture before disposing of their bodies in swamps. He even managed to murder a death row inmate using a remote-controlled explosion. What shaped this chilling figure—a product of genetics or environment? Experts, lawmen, and Gaskins' devoted daughter delve into the factors that drove him to kill.
