About this listen
This week on PodCandy, Stacey and Dori dive into the disturbing case of Keith Hunter Jespersen—infamously known as the Happy Face Killer. A seemingly average long-haul trucker turned serial murderer, Jespersen left a trail of victims across the country while signing his confessions with a chilling smiley face.
Dr. John helps to dissect Jespersen’s psychology, exploring his need for control, lack of remorse, and what might have triggered his violent outbursts. They discuss the challenges of catching a killer who operated in plain sight, the tragic misidentification of suspects, and the devastating impact on victims’ families—including Jespersen’s own daughter.
As always, Stacey and Dori bring their signature mix of dark curiosity and unexpected humor, asking the big questions: What makes someone snap? Why do some killers crave attention, while others lurk in the shadows? And is it ever okay to say a serial killer was… kind of cute?
