Reminds me of that film, The Iceman about the self-proclaimed hitman Richard Kuklinski. Claims to have killed between 100 and 200 people. Been the subject of many documentaries and research into psychopathy. I heavily suspect he's just a small-time crook who had a fight/dispute with his partners in crime, went to jail for their murder, and then spun a yarn about being a big-time mafia contract killer. Why? Perhaps to boslter his reputation in prison, maybe to get money for his family, maybe just for kicks.
Wim Hof (aka "the Iceman") has developed a fascinating method which enables anybody to consciously manage one's immune system, no drugs involved (scientific studies are available).
This should interest everyone who's dealing with immune system overreactions, such as any auto-immune disease, allergies, etc. and persistent inflammation issues (also touching depression).
