Luis Alfredo Garavito is believed to be the most prolific serial killer in modern history, with an estimated victim count surpassing 200 children. Known as “La Bestia” (The Beast), Garavito’s crimes were as methodical as they were monstrous—carried out over years, hidden behind a mask of charity and false kindness. In this harrowing episode of Behind the Bloodstains, we examine the life, capture, and incomprehensible cruelty of a man whose name still strikes fear in Colombia and beyond.
🕵️♂️ From grooming to gruesome murders, Garavito operated in plain sight—exploiting social trust, poverty, and a fractured legal system. But how did one of the world's most horrifying predators manage to evade capture for so long? And why did his crimes go largely unnoticed for years?
🎧 Join us as we unravel:
- The psychological profile of Garavito
- His manipulative tactics and disguise as a kind figure
- How he selected his victims and executed his crimes
- The investigation that finally brought him down
- Colombia’s controversial legal handling of his case
- The chilling possibility that he may be released
🔪 Behind the Bloodstains brings you a deep, disturbing look at one of true crime’s darkest figures—told with haunting narration, gripping research, and an unflinching eye on the truth.
