Death Row Interview With The Mass Killer Known As The “Terminator”

Death Row Interview With The Mass Killer Known As The “Terminator”

Author: Robert Riggs April 19, 2022 Duration: 18:17

Doug Feldman’s resume gave no clue that a mass killer was lurking inside him.

He graduated from a prestigious university, was a financial wizard, and was the funniest man in the room at social functions. Everything appeared to be going his way.

But beneath Feldman’s calm exterior, a volcano was swelling inside him. First, there were tremors. Then, a deadly eruption against random strangers.

Feldman cruised around Dallas on his Harley Davidson motorcycle, randomly shooting truck drivers to death. His reasons for the murders are beyond comprehension.

A month after Feldman was sentenced to die in the Texas death chamber, he sat down to talk with investigative reporter Robert Riggs.

It is a rare glimpse into the mind of a mass killer because they usually take their own lives at the end of their rampage.

At the beginning of the interview, Feldman told Riggs that most of what he had to say would not make any sense.

And he was right.

Robert Riggs has spent decades as an investigative reporter, and in True Crime Reporter, he applies that relentless, document-driven approach to the stories that haunt us. This isn't just a retelling of grim headlines; it's a meticulous walk through active case files, historical injustices, and the societal undercurrents that allow crime to flourish. Each episode feels like you're sitting across from Riggs as he lays out his notes, connecting dots between evidence, witness accounts, and the often-overlooked details that change a narrative. You'll hear the tension in the pursuit of truth, the weight of unresolved questions, and the quiet impact on communities and families left in the wake of violence. The podcast moves beyond the sensational to examine the cultural and systemic factors at play, offering a sober, deeply researched perspective. Listen for long-form narratives that build like a detective's board, where every piece of audio, every interview, and every document serves a purpose. It’s for those who want to understand the 'why' and the 'how' as much as the 'who,' presented with the clarity and authority of a seasoned journalist who knows the terrain. This is a journey into real stories, handled with the care they demand, and it naturally becomes an essential listen for anyone fascinated by the intersection of human behavior, justice, and the news.
