Peter Brendt?

What is Peter Brendt talking about in Episode 7 with that whole "When has there ever been a serial killer in the last 500 years..." who buried the bodies 2 miles from their home, and so that rules out this one guy?
Where is he getting that from? John Wayne Gacy buried 26 of his victims in his house's crawl space, and 3 more on his property. Fox Hollow Herb Baumeister buried 11 victims on his property. I'm not going to keep listing, I'm just wondering what Brendt is talking about, when I think we all know from history it's just not true.
I think Josh was right in an earlier episode when he said perhaps Brendt's imagination has gotten the better of him regarding something else. I don't think he's helping.

BTW this documentary series is chilling. Josh and Rachel have done so much good work here.

Spot on. I found that comment ridiculous knowing that many serial killers such as Gacy,Dahmer,even Ed Gein, who made lampshades and jewelry out of his victims, kept the bodies close to or even on their premises. The problem we have in today's social media age is that it lets these types of fame seeking morons, who have no credentials whatsoever, get to the forefront where they can masquerade as so called experts in whatever field they believe they are good at, and the rest of us are taken in by their nonsense because they have a million hits on youtube.

Exactly. That person literally knows nothing, an absolute hack and so is this documentary.
