Episode 62: Pee Wee Gaskins Part One

PEE WEE GASKINS, a name infamous in the annals of true crime.

He was called the meanest man in America, and the redneck Charles Manson. He drove a hearse and had his own graveyard where he’d dispose of victims, victims he’d poisoned, shot, stabbed, strangled, drowned bludgeoned, even using explosives to blow a man’s head off in the most unlikely of places. He killed men, he killed women, he even killed children, including a two-year-old infant.

At the end of his life he’d claim to be a sex crazed serial killer and confess to over a hundred murders, though most of them are believed to be fabricated, but there can be no denying those buried on his land and those he later led police to.

Yes, there is no doubt that Pee Wee Gaskins was a stone-cold killer, and that a minimum of fifteen people had met their end through his hands. But he was a self-confessed liar and master manipulator, and like most psychopaths, used a litany of masks to hide his true nature, making it quite difficult to differentiate fact from fiction, and ever understanding who the true Pee Wee Gaskins was.

So, we are going to take an interesting approach, and view him from the eyes of two writers who were hired to write his life story, and the two very different versions of his life and crimes they were given.

Today we present to you Part One of the Pee Gaskins Story: Pee Wee and Mr Jim.
