The Iceman and the Psychiatrist

By his mid-20s, Richard Kuklinski’s extreme penchant for murder drew the attention of organized crime and he was hired as a contract killer. Today, he is serving multiple life sentences for nearly 200 homicides. In this powerful program, Dr. Park Dietz, a world-renowned psychiatrist and consultant to the FBI, interviews this remorseless killer, providing important insights into the psychological factors that can lead to such an aberrant pathology. Complementing the one-on-one sessions, police photographs and film footage document Kuklinski’s troubled background and numerous victims. Viewer discretion is advised. An HBO Production. (51 minutes)
