After the news of the maniac's death, we revisit John's story of England's Purple Aki, a bizarre profile of a fitness enthusiast whose compulsion to squeeze young men's muscles led him to being labelled as a sex offender, serving time in prison, and his conviction for being involved in a young man's death. Plus, Matt serves up harrowing early talking dolls.
