John Joubert: The Boy Scout Killer – Sadism in Suburbia


In this gripping episode of Among Monsters, host Damien Vale dives into the horrifying double life of John Joubert, a seemingly model citizen—boy scout, honor student, and U.S. Air Force serviceman—who harbored a monstrous secret. Between 1982 and 1984, Joubert brutally abducted, tortured, and murdered young boys across Nebraska and Maine, including Danny Eberle, Christopher Walden, and Ricky Stetson. Diagnosed with sadistic personality disorder, Joubert admitted to finding sexual pleasure in his crimes, targeting his victims with chilling precision and staging their deaths with disturbing care. The episode explores how this clean-cut killer evaded suspicion, the forensic science that eventually exposed him, and the psychological darkness that drove his need to dominate and destroy. This is the story of how a predator hid in plain sight—and how he was finally brought to justice.
