  • Summary

  • Almost ten years ago Micael Dahlen met with Charles Manson in prison. A meeting that still haunts him and fascinates other people. But why? Studies show that 90 percent of us have thought about murdering and hurting other people, but extremely few of people in society even commit crimes. So why are drawn to stories about people who have committed unthinkable crimes? Are the stories we consume a sort of catharsis?

    In this episode, Micael Dahlen tells of his meeting with Charles Manson and travels to Los Angeles to meet the television writer Ken Kristensen.
