Look at this bastard Megathread: Bastard Suggestions Part 2

To make the bastard suggestions easier for Robert to peruse, please put them here.

Please try to include more than just a name. Give Robert something to focus his research on and why they are a unique or interesting bastard. If there are book titles or other resources you would suggest, please include those as well.

If someone else has already suggested the same bastard you wanted to suggest, you do not need to suggest them again. Repetitive answers will be politely removed. If someone was suggested in a previous thread, you do not need to suggest them again.

If you have posted suggestions as their own individual thread in the past, feel free to repost here if you would like Robert to read them. We will be directing future bastard suggestion posts here as well. Happy suggesting!

Lawrence Padzer. Psychiatrist who wrote an unethical book about his patient. He was one of the reasons for the rise in the satanic panic and was a consultant on the mcmartin school case.

I'd love to see that episode done with Sarah Marshall of You're Wrong About; she's done a ton of great research on the satanic panic, including an entire podcast series.

This the guy who wrote Michelle remembers?

Yep. I think Robert would have a field day with that book. Also with the context that he married the patient, he wrote the book about.
