Real ‘Mindhunter’ John Douglas recalls meeting ‘sadist’ killer Larry Gene Bell: ‘He wanted to be in control’
Fox News
Larry Gene Bell was executed for killing two girls in 1985 by wrapping their heads with duct tape. One of the murders was the basis for a TV movie "Nightmare in Columbia County."
"I remembered I asked him when he started feeling bad about this case," Douglas, a retired FBI profiler, told Fox News Digital. "He then said to me, ‘All I know is that the good Larry Gene Bell couldn’t have done this, but the bad Larry Gene Bell could have.’ For him, it was all about being in control."
Douglas, whose work profiling serial killers inspired Netflix’s true-crime drama "Mindhunter," recently co-wrote a new book focusing on Bell, "When a Killer Calls: A Haunting Story of Murder, Criminal Profiling, and Justice in a Small Town." The 76-year-old, along with Emmy Award-winning documentary filmmaker Mark Olshaker, explored what prompted the Alabama native to commit such heinous crimes and how he was captured.
