Enter the unforgiving world of Carl Panzram—a man whose crimes were as brutal as they were chilling. Carl Panzram—Born to Kill explores the haunting true story of America's most vicious serial killer, whose life of violence and audacity defied rehabilitation and shocked a nation.
Born into poverty and abuse in late 19th-century Minnesota, Panzram's early years were defined by hardship and hardship alone. Institutionalized, hardened, and unrepentant, he embraced a life of crime spanning decades—robbing, raping, and brutally murdering men, women, and children across the United States and beyond. His violent spree included arson, burglary, and assaults that left no victim untouched by his cruelty.
What made Panzram stand apart was not only the ferocity of his acts but the clarity of his confessions. While on death row, he penned a chilling autobiography under the guidance of prison guard Henry H. Miner—admitting to his crimes with cold calm and offering a rare, unfiltered look into his distorted mind and warped ideology. Forgiveness was not in his vocabulary; for Panzram, violence was born of defiance.
