Transcript

Tell me about the most unhealthy brain you've ever seen. For a 15 year old was Kip Kinkel. He's a 15 year old boy in Springfield, Oregon, who brought weapons to school. Got arrested. His parents picked him up from jail. And sometime between 6:00 that night and 8:00 the next morning, he m*rdered his mom and dad. And then he went to Thurston High School in Springfield Oregon, and sh*t 25 people. Based on my work, they scanned him for his trial. His brain was so awful. Like I'd never seen a 15 year old that had a brain so damaged, and his life reflected it. What did you see in his brain? It was shriveled. At 15? At 15. And it's like, okay. Well he m*rdered his mom and dad, so I couldn't get a good history, but he either had anoxia at birth, lack of oxygen, a severe infection, or something was poisoning his brain.
