Doctor Satan - France's Most Prolific Murderer

from Middle-Aged and Mediocre · host Middle-Aged and Mediocre

Marcel André Henri Félix Petiot was born on Jan. 17, 1897, in the town of Auxerre.  As a young man he impaled insects on their knitting needles; he imprisoned tiny birds and did not feed them so that he could watch them die of starvation, though, some days he did let a bird go free but not before he had stuck pins into its eyes to blind it; he attempted to drown his cat in boiling water... and he had black eyes, which really should have been a warning sign. His legitimacy as a physician is still a question to this day but there is no doubt that he murdered dozens, if not hundreds, of people under the guise of helping them escape Occupied France during World War II.  This is the story of a depraved human being who used people's fear and hope to prey upon them and rob them of their lives and their valuables. This is the story of Doctor Satan. Enjoy Cash butchering a French accent!
