Ed Gein was born on August 27, 1906, in Wisconsin in the USA. The crimes that he committed around the locality of Plainfield, Wisconsin attracted attention after authorities discovered that he exhumed corpses from graveyards in order to maintain them as keepsakes and trophies. November 6, 1957, police suspected Ed Gein for the disappearance of a store clerk named Bernice Worden in Plainfield. He was suspected as he was the last customer to have billed at the store prior to Bernice Worden’s disappearance. He admitted to killing Mary Hogan who had gone missing since 1954, however later he denied any memory of the incident. Ed Gein was found medically unfit to undergo trial and subsequently was sent to Central State Hospital in Waupun, Wisconsin. He was later transferred to Mendota State Hospital in Madison, Wisconsin. In 1968, he was declared fit by doctors and upon trial was found not guilty by Judge Robert H. Gollmar on the basis of mental insanity. He spent the rest of his life in prison.
