What up, Spooky Squad? In this episode of Scream and Sugar, we continue to tramp through the 2014 Isla Vista murders committed by Elliot Rodger.
In today's episode, we will focus more thoroughly on his state of mind, including diagnoses. As we explore his warped ideology, the warning signs that were ignored, the toxic subcultures that fueled his descent into violence, we will also look at how our society responded. Join us as we dissect one of the most infamous crimes of the decade and the lasting impact it left behind.
And remember, stay spooky!
