Hey everybody welcome back to cold case murder mysteries. I'm your host Ryan Kraus coming at you once again for part two of the Delphi murders.

Okay, so we're going to pick up where we left off last time and what we were essentially talking

about was the construction of a cop. Now we had talked about my brother as an example and of

course cops like all people are built from emotional deficit lending itself to physical compensation for the deficiency.

If someone puts you in an emotional prison in childhood, you repetitively put people in a physical

prison as an adult.

If you couldn't control your circumstances as a child and had no authority,

you find a way to become it later in life

to emotionally kill and bury that child inside you.

First you dig the hole and then you fill it.

So let me give another quick example here.

When I was about five or six years old, my Let me give another quick example here.

When I was about five or six years old, my father had a friend named Bruce, right?

And Bruce was like this really playful guy who loved children. He was exceptionally good with children. But for some reason, he just couldn't get along with adults. He was an asshole and especially to men, right? And so I didn't think at the time

And so my father goes on to tell me that Bruce used to be a cop, but was not a cop anymore anymore because he had gotten into a habit that got him in a lot of trouble.

And what that habit was is that he was what they called a beat cop back in a day, you know, someone who walked around on foot a lot of the time.

And so while he was out on foot on the streets and interacting with people,

what he would do, right, is he would create situations with other men, usually

younger men and obviously people who had no authority in relation to him, creating a father-son sort of relationship, and then he would

beat these people up.

He would ask them questions, interrogate them, and taunt them, and make them do everything they could to please
