About this listen
In this episode of The Lawmas Podcast, Lauren and Lacey continue their spooky-season series with a look at one of true crime’s most infamous, and misunderstood, figures: Ed Gein. Known as the inspiration for Psycho and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, the hosts explore whether he truly fits the definition of a serial killer.
Before diving in, Lacey shares a story from a Down Syndrome fundraiser that sparks an honest talk about parenting, advocacy, and knowing when to speak up.
Then the conversation turns to Gein’s isolated upbringing, his troubled relationship with his mother, and how his crimes changed horror movies and pop culture forever.
This is Part 1 of a two-part deep dive into Ed Gein, the Netflix series, and the legal side of mental competency.
