John Cooper: The Bullseye Killer

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the case of John Cooper, also known as the “Bullseye Killer.” In the ‘80s, Cooper committed two double murders in the Welsh county of Pembrokeshire in the UK. Throughout the following decade, Cooper would commit a series of other crimes, like burglary and sexual assault – but it would take nearly another decade for authorities to link him to the killings. Candice dives into the psyche of Cooper, exploring how his addiction to gambling and alcohol might have pushed him into a life of crime, and how his false sense of invincibility – like his decision to appear on a popular game show after committing a heinous crime – ultimately led to his downfall.
