Expicit
It took over a decade and more than fifty brutal murders before Soviet authorities finally captured Andrei Chikatilo. Dubbed The Butcher of Rostov, his cold, clinical detachment stunned even the most hardened investigators.
In this second part of our deep dive, Simon Ford and Jacques Morrell follow the hunt to its chilling conclusion – the arrest, trial, and execution of the USSR’s most prolific serial killer.
They perform a psychological autopsy of a man who sodomised, tortured, and cannibalised his victims – most of them women and children. What made him? How did he slip through the cracks for so long? And the most disturbing question of all: could it happen again – in a democracy, in our own time?
Footage of Andrei Chikatilo’s death sentence – the monster meets his fate.
