The Case of the Hillside Strangler
Is it possible for an apparently gentle young man to suddenly become
a vicious serial killer? This documentary, based on a 1970s
California case, explores the question through the killer’s own
mind, or minds. A team of prominent psychiatrists concur that
Kenneth Bianchi did not kill twelve young women, but that one of his
multiple personalities, Steve, did. Rare video footage of Bianchi
under hypnosis shows "Steve’s" emergence, and in an eerie
confession, he admits to the murders. Interviews with police
investigators on the case reveal that they remain unconvinced that
Bianchi suffers from multiple personality disorder, and they object
to his insanity plea. A BBC Production. (60 minutes)
