His Villainous Deeds[]
- On December 12th he stabbed Paul Thompson in the chest and neck 18 times to take his blood to drink.
- He killed Wally Brisbane's music teacher, Annie Stuart, by beating her to death with a shotgun and taking her organs post-mortem.
- Broke into Gynette Giles, the grandmother of Wally, slashed her the throat, pulled her heart out with bolt cutters and forceful kidnapped Wally.
Why doesn't he stand out?[]
- He fails to other cannibals in the show who killed victims in more brutal ways, most notably Floyd Feylinn Ferell who has unique crimes like enforced cannibalism, 13 direct and 2 proxy kills, and keeping victims in cages to bite and eat.
- His backstory is played with heavy sympathy as his mother's need to control him, his use of drugs, and not being visited by anyone in institutionalization turned him psychotic.
- He is remorseful for his murders as shown when he goes to church to confess his sins of killing 3 people and abducting a 7-year-old and attempts to commit suicide.
- He has too much moral agency issues as he forgets all of his crimes when having psychotic breaks and only knows what he does when he doesn't have them.
