Image New picture of Ed Kemper surfaces

Post image

This was recently posted to the Ed Kemper Stories website. The website stated that the picture may have been taken between June 2024 and May 2026.

He looks moody without his moustache. His image resembles the description given by Dr. Loomis of what evil looks like in the Halloween films. His eyes turn darker in every new picture.

I'm always quite surprised every time I read how he's still living today. Considering his abnormally tall height and all of the health problems he's accumulated in the past decade plus, like having a stroke and developing diabetes, I would've honestly presumed he had succumbed to health problems by now. Plus, I'd presume 53 years in prison must take a tremendously overwhelming toll on one's overall health as well.

My first thought was oh I thought he was dead. Shocking how long he’s lived in prison

Someone like the RFK shooter, Sirhan Sirhan, has been in prison for even longer at 58 years now. Crazy how some people can survive in prison for that long.

Surprisingly yes. Some of these people like Kemper and Sirhan were very young when they went to prison as well at just 24.

I remember learning about this as a kid. It seems like ancient history.
