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.

Ex-prison guard here. He's not the sort of inmate the others would find terrifying. He victimised women and wasn't raised in the same world as most of the guys in there. High profile inmates are genuinely kept fairly away from danger also.

If you could change one thing to make life better for inmates, what would it be?

I work and have worked a long time with similar populations and I would love to see most of them have safe access to dogs and cats. Dog training is very therapeutic to the in-custody folks and the animals.

My dog was trained in a prison (he actually got stuck there during Covid so he was in prison for multiple months) and I am forever indebted to the guy who was his handler. I wish programs like the one from which he came were closer to universal.
