avenger... of sorts.
343
00:17:16,285 --> 00:17:18,996
It all ended when Henley brought Corll
a boy and a girl.
344
00:17:19,079 --> 00:17:22,249
Corll wasn't happy about the girl,
so he put them all on the body board.
345
00:17:22,332 --> 00:17:25,711
Henley talked Corll into releasing him,
but this time, he shot him.
346
00:17:25,794 --> 00:17:28,172
Homosexual jealousy.
As soon as he brought a girl in,
347
00:17:28,255 --> 00:17:29,173
the whole thing fell apart.
348
00:17:29,256 --> 00:17:32,426
Well, sexuality is relevant
as far as it pertains to victimology,
349
00:17:32,509 --> 00:17:34,109
like their obvious preference for males,
350
00:17:34,636 --> 00:17:37,890
- but it's not causal to violence.
- Homosexuality is a deviance.
351
00:17:37,973 --> 00:17:40,392
Actually, it's been removed from the DSM
as a "disorder"
352
00:17:40,476 --> 00:17:43,228
and changed
to a "sexual orientation disturbance."
353
00:17:43,312 --> 00:17:44,146
Sounds much better.
354
00:17:44,229 --> 00:17:46,815
We need to understand the influence
Corll exerted over Henley:
355
00:17:47,274 --> 00:17:48,901
was it fear, was it sexual?
356
00:17:48,984 --> 00:17:50,778
What did each get out of the partnership?
