What drives a man to become a vigilante, taking the law into his own hands to eliminate those he deems unworthy of life? On this intense episode we explore the macabre life of Pedro Rodrigues Filho, the notorious "Killer of Killers." Born from a childhood riddled with abuse, Pedro's early traumas etched a violent path, leading him to target criminals like drug dealers and rapists in a chilling quest for what he saw as justice. With a staggering body count that includes murders committed behind bars, Pedro's story exposes the failures of the prison system and the chilling reality of a man driven by a dark, twisted code of ethics. We draw unsettling parallels between Pedro and the fictional character Dexter, delving into the traumatic childhoods and self-imposed moralities that shaped their violent tendencies. We also touch on his controversial release from prison, subsequent re-arrest, and his brutal murder in 2023, raising critical questions about justice, rehabilitation, and humanity's capacity for both good and evil. As we explore Pedro's legacy, we remind you that the stark difference between the romanticized vigilante justice in fiction and the devastating impact of real-life crimes cannot be ignored.
