1:00:01
What for? Hell, I'm not bashful, baby.
1:00:07
And that, if we find the motive,
we find the killer.
1:00:12
If.
1:00:16
This report was written six months...
1:00:19
...before the Clutters were killed.
1:00:22
It's called,
Murder Without Apparent Motive.
1:00:26
At the Menninger Clinic,
right here in Kansas...
1:00:29
...a study was made of four killers.
1:00:32
They all had certain things in common.
1:00:35
They all committed senseless murders.
1:00:38
They all felt physically inferior
and sexually inadequate.
1:00:44
Their childhood was violent,
or one parent was missing.
1:00:48
Or someone else had raised them.
1:00:52
They couldn't distinguish
between fantasy and reality.
1:00:58
They didn't hate their victims,
they didn't even know them.
1:01:01
They felt no guilt about their crime,
and got nothing out of it.
1:01:05
And most important,
they told the police or a psychiatrist...
1:01:11
...that they felt the urge to kill,
before they committed murder.
1:01:17
Their warnings were disregarded.
1:01:26
So, who killed the Clutters?
1:01:34
Someday, somebody will explain
to me the motive of a newspaper.
1:01:39
First you scream, ''Find the bastards.''
1:01:41
Till we find them you want to get us fired.
1:01:44
When we find them,
you accuse us of brutality.
1:01:49
Before we can go into court,
you give them a trial by newspaper.
1:01:53
When we finally get a conviction
you want to save them...
1:01:56
...by proving they were crazy
in the first place.
1:01:59
All of which adds up to one thing:
You've got the killers.
