Rotten to the Core

42: Carl Panzram: The River Pirate


Listen Later

Some say that everyone is just a product of their upbringing—the grand debate between nature vs. nurture.
We have learned in our past lessons that this is very true. Some of our rotten people seem to have been born bad, while others succumb to their horrible circumstances.
Our Rotten man today, at least to me, seems to be both. He was a man who was born rotten and, because of the trauma that was inflicted upon him, let that rot spread not only throughout his whole identity but into others as well.
He reminds me of that old saying, “One bad apple spoils the bunch,” because he spoiled the lives of so many, and sadly, most of them are lost to history.
Come with me, and let’s attempt to cut out some of the rot that was Carl Panzram.
