Beneath the glittering facade of New Orleans high society in the early 1800s, Madame Delphine LaLaurie's lavish mansion concealed one of the most gruesome crimes in American history. Behind locked attic doors, enslaved men and women were chained, mutilated, starved, and grotesquely experimented on for Madame LaLaurie's sadistic pleasure. Some victims had their bones reset to take on non-human form, others were flayed, disemboweled, or fitted with crude surgical contraptions. This wasn’t punishment: this was depravity wrapped in silk and perfumed with civility, masquerading as refinement while it feasted on human suffering. To this day, locals say the mansion is cursed. Visitors report cold spots, disembodied cries, and the faint clatter of chains dragging across the floorboards - echoes of suffering too violent to stay buried… Patreon: www.patreon.com/psychopediapod Instagram + TikTok: @investigatorslater @psychopediapod Heart Starts Pounding can be found here: @heartstartspounding www.heartstartspounding.com To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

• EP135: The Serial Killer Next Door: Joel Rifkin (Part 2)

Join our Patreon family for exclusive bonus content, early access to Girl On Gore episodes, access to BTS, private group chats, merch discounts, and to guest co-host with Investigator Slater! www.Patreon.com/PsychopediaPod In Part 2 of our deep dive into Joel Rifkin, aka "Joel the Ripper," we follow the trail of evidence that shattered the illusion of suburban safety and introduced the world to New York’s most known prolific serial killer. The quiet, ordinary man next door was finally exposed when police pulled him over and discovered a decomposing body in the trunk of his car. Seventeen women were brutally murdered by a man who couldn’t even recall all their names, but remembered every detail of how they died in his hands. We dig into the investigation that laid bare the cracks in law enforcement’s response to missing sex workers, the trial, criminological theories relating to serial killers, and interviews where Joel seemed more titillated by the attention than tormented by guilt.

• EP134: The Serial Killer Next Door: Joel Rifkin (Part 1)

  Join our Patreon family for exclusive bonus content, access to BTS, a private group chat, merch discounts, and to guest co-host with Investigator Slater! www.Patreon.com/PsychopediaPod Inspired by Gary Ridgway and Ted Bundy, serial killer Joel Rifin modeled his victimology and body disposable methods like a grotesque homage: limbs in cement, heads in paint cans, bodies dumped with calculated precision. For four years in the late 1980s/early 90s, while living with his mother in the heart of suburban Long Island, NY, Joel Rifkin hunted women on the margins. Joel, a bullied outcast with a high IQ and a severely damaged frontal lobe, didn’t explode overnight. He eroded. First came the fantasies. Then came the reality of 17 victims whom he strangled and dismembered with an X-Acto knife. Joel blended in — just another quiet man with a sedan, a part time job, and a taste for sadism. This wasn’t some obvious "monster" lurking in the shadows. This was a depraved serial killer next door, hiding in plain sight, mowing the same lawns your kids play on. Welcome to Part 1 of New York’s most known prolific killer: Joel Rifkin, aka Joel The Ripper.
