Ed Gein

Well, a buddy by the name of Mo showed me this band one time called Ed Gein. So lastnight i wanted to listen to them and for some reason myspace doesn't work with BU Residence for some reason. Well I went to youtube to listen to them and came across this biography from A & E about this guy named Ed Gein, back in the 1950's. I thought I would talk about him since I thought it was quite interesting.

Ed Gein was a guy who lived in a small Wisconsin town. His family was really religous and his mother and a really short leash on him. Well Gein's family all eventually died on him so he remained living on the ruined down farm house. Gein was a very quiet guy who worked really hard for his money. Well eventually the people from this small town found out that Ed Gein murder two women from town. Police caught him but eventually discovered that there were many different bodies in the house and it turned out the Gein went to the local graveyard and dug up fresh graves. Police also found severed heads, bodies that were skinned. There were masks and leggings made from the human flesh, along with many other things made from various other parts of the human bodies. There was also a trend that all of these bodies were women and well you can put two and two together but just incase some of you who can't, Gein had his "way" with these women too. Gein did go to court for murder but was pronounce mentally insane and couldn't stand for trial. Well Gein was sent to a mental institution and a few years later he got put on trial. He was later pronounced guilty and was sentenced to live life in this mental institute. Well Gein's property and all other stuff was going to be auctioned off but his house burnt down. Gein died a few years (I believe it was a few years anyways) after this.

I do encourage you to check this out. There is 6 parts to this biography on youtube.com.

That is all for now folks.
