Скачать или смотреть What Police Found In Ed Gein's Farmhouse Shocked 1957 America

In November 1957, the disappearance of Bernice Worden from her hardware store in Plainfield, Wisconsin led investigators to Ed Gein—a quiet handyman whose farmhouse held evidence of two murders and years of grave robbery. This is the true story behind Psycho, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and the insanity defense debate that still rages today.


In this video, you'll discover:
How a small-town investigation uncovered evidence that shocked 1950s America
The psychiatric evaluations that revealed severe mental illness behind the crimes
Why the legal verdict "not guilty by reason of insanity" became so controversial
How this case influenced forensic psychiatry and American criminal law
The lasting impact on victims' families and the Plainfield community


This video prioritizes factual accuracy, victim dignity, and mental health context. We focus on the investigation, legal proceedings, and systemic lessons—not graphic details or sensationalism.
