Her mother was a schizophrenic crack addict who vanished for weeks at a time. She grew up on one bare mattress, and school was the only place she ate. At 11 she was moved into a one-bedroom trailer with three heroin addicts, and on her 14th birthday her grandmother put her in a psych ward. Years later a strip club bouncer made her a bet, and 24 hours later she was on a plane to LA to shoot p*rn.

Her name is Ziggy. In the video below she tries to tell her childhood out loud and keeps stopping to apologize. The hardest part to say is about her father, and what he did to all three kids in the first two years of her life.

She remembers one day most. He locked her sister in a closet so he could get to Ziggy alone. She screamed as loud as she could while her sister pounded on the door from the inside. When it was over, her sister crawled over to her. She says that moment bonded them and broke them apart forever.

Today her sister can’t hold a single relationship. Her brother is starting to show signs of schizophrenia. Her youngest brother won’t speak to anyone. And her parents are still married. Her mom calls sometimes to say she’s sorry, then calls again months later not knowing who she’s talking to.

When CPS stepped in, the kids were handed back to that same mother. One room, one mattress, no sheets, no pillow, no clothes. At school she told everyone she was just a disobedient kid who refused to shower, because nobody had ever taught her how. Later her grandmother kept her in lockdown rehab, and Ziggy says it was just so she could keep collecting her social security checks.

The video opens with her listing everything she’ll never get: her mom teaching her makeup, her dad teaching her to ride a bike. She’s 25 now. She says she’s finally happy, and that none of it was her fault.

So who failed her worse: the parents who did this, or the system that kept handing her back to them?

P Diddy grabbed Cassie by the hair, dragged her off a chair into the bedroom and beat her until she screamed “I’m sorry, I’m sorry” while his male escort sat on the couch fifteen feet away listening to every smack. The escort stood up to go in. Six armed goons were in the apartment next door. He sat back down. Stood up. Put his clothes on. Sat down again. Fifteen minutes later Diddy walked out and said “Yo, y’all ready to continue?”

His name is Daniel Phillip. He managed a male strip show in Times Square. His boss called him at 3 AM because no dancers were available. A VIP client was paying quadruple. He showed up in an NYPD costume he bought from a souvenir shop. The woman who opened the door was in red lace lingerie, oiled up, platform heels. He thought she was Rihanna.

In the video below he describes the beating the way a man would explain why he stopped showing up to a job and never told anyone the real reason. No performance. Just a guy sitting with something he carried for thirteen years.

She said “hold on one second.” A bottle flew past her face and hit the wall. He came out, grabbed her hair, dragged her into the bedroom. Smacks. Screaming. “I’m sorry. I’m sorry.”

Daniel says as a kid he watched his mother get beaten. He thought he left that behind. In that apartment, the little boy came racing back up inside him. He was terrified. He knew he could destroy Diddy physically. He also knew what the men in the next room would do to him after.

Diddy walked out fifteen minutes later. “Yo, y’all ready to continue?” Cassie came over to Daniel. She was shaking. She started rubbing his chest trying to get the session going again. He couldn’t touch her. They sent him home.

He says the worst part is that Diddy wasn’t surprised. Cassie wasn’t surprised. The only person in that apartment who thought something unusual had just happened was him.

Did P Diddy’s escort witness a crime that night, or just another Tuesday in an apartment where the furniture cost more than his year?

A Mormon bishop’s daughter from Utah stood in front of twelve men in prison costumes on a p*rn set. She was 18. She said no. The director told her to do it. $4,000 for the scene. She couldn’t stop crying after. He didn’t say a word to her. He had his box cover. She went home to Utah. Came back a year later and shot 300 more films. Her rate for the roughest scenes in the industry was $1,500. The studios that distributed them made millions.

Her name is Belladonna. Born Michelle Sinclair in 1986. She was molested at 14 by an older boy. The day she turned 18 she left Utah for good. A recruiter online told her she could make quick cash. Her first scene was supposed to be simple. The director changed it on set to something she had never done. Nobody told her she could say no. “They lie to you all the time,” she says.

In the video below she sits across from Diane Sawyer and describes the prison set the way a passenger would describe a car crash she survived. Calm. Still smiling. Sawyer asks why she’s smiling while describing the worst moments of her life. She stops.

“I like to hide my real emotions. I don’t like myself.”

Her agent sent her back. She shot 200 to 300 films. Contracted chlamydia. Started using drugs on set. Told a reporter she didn’t want to be alive anymore. Her rate for the roughest scenes in the industry was $1,500. The studios distributing those films made millions. The warehouse workers packing her DVDs got hepatitis B vaccines from the company. She got no health coverage.

Her mother found out from co-workers who recognized her daughter on screen. She never confronted her. She just asked herself one question after another. Was it the divorce. Was it the church. Was it the money. Was she not enough. She never got an answer.

A girl who wasn’t allowed to watch Dirty Dancing ended up in 300 films where nobody once asked if she was okay. The only person who ever wondered if they did something wrong was her mother.

Did the industry find a girl who didn’t know she could say no, or did she keep coming back because nobody on the outside was offering her $4,000 for anything?

Her mother printed her nudes and handed them to the police. Walked into the station with every s*x message, every photo, every private conversation she’d ever sent her husband. Then she called the American Embassy to make sure her daughter could never leave the country. Then she called her landlord and said her daughter was a pr*stitute. Evicted in 30 days. Then she sent the screenshots to her husband’s 72-year-old mother. All because her daughter started dating a man she didn’t pick.

Her name is Monica. Polish. Grew up in Sweden. Became a teacher. Quit because she couldn’t handle watching other kids go through what she went through. Moved to the states with no green card, no money, no work. She drove to Vegas for her first p*rn shoot crying the whole way. “It’s either this or rent.”

In the video below she reads off what her mother did the way a clerk would read charges in court. One after another. No pause between them.

The shoot was two guys. Eight hours. She calls it the worst day of her life. She did four films. Begged them to take every one down. Contract said no. Then a pay-to-play club. Eight hours of men. Monday to Friday. Five years straight.

When she called the American Embassy to ask if her mother had really tried to block her visa, the woman on the phone laughed. “If we listened to every nut job who calls here, this is all we’d be doing.”

Her mother’s only response to everything: “You always do the wrong things.”

A teacher from Poland cried her way to a p*rn set in Vegas because she couldn’t pay rent, spent five years in a pay-to-play club, and the person who tried hardest to destroy her wasn’t a producer or a pimp. It was her own mother, with a printer and a phone.

Did Monica’s mother try to save her daughter, or did she just need to make sure that if her daughter’s life fell apart, she’d be the one who pushed it?

She was promised $10,000 to f*ck 251 men in 10 hours. Five at a time. Four minutes each. No breaks. Guys mailed Polaroids of their dcks just to get in line. She was 22. Two years before that she was studying law at King’s College London on a full scholarship. She never saw a dollar from the film. It made millions. The last man in line was Ron Jeremy. He’s doing 20 years for r*pe now.

Her name is Annabelle Chong. Real name Grace Qu. Born in Singapore in 1972. Straight-A student her whole life. Raffles Girls School, the kind of place that produces prime ministers. Gifted education program. Full ride to King’s College London for law.

Then she got gang rped in London. Dropped out. Moved to LA. Enrolled at USC for gender studies. In 1994 she answered an ad in LA Weekly for an adult talent agency. Five months later, January 19th 1995, she shot The World’s Biggest Gng B*ng. 251 acts. Roughly 70 men. Ten hours straight. She called it a feminist statement. Said she was modeling what a “female stud” would look like. Cited the Roman Empress Messalina as inspiration.

The film became one of the highest grossing adult titles ever made. Her cut was zero.

In the video below she sits on Jerry Springer’s stage and walks through the logistics the way a catering manager would explain a buffet. How many at a time. How long each round lasted. How guys applied. Her sister is backstage sobbing. Wives and girlfriends of the men who showed up are waiting to confront them. She doesn’t blink.

Her sister walks out. “You’re killing us. You’re killing the family.” Annabelle compares herself to temple priestesses in ancient Babylon. Jerry cuts her off. “You weren’t celebrating anything. You were lying down to get screwed by 251 guys to make a movie.”

She looks at him and says, “To get screwed is a wonderful experience. I feel alive, Jerry. 1995 is the year of the pig. And I just feel that I started the year off right.”

In 2003 she disappeared. Got a degree in software engineering. Today she writes front-end code in California under her birth name. She once said “Annabel is dead and is now replaced full-time by her evil doppelganger.”

A law student from Singapore got rped in London, shot the most famous gngb*ng in history, called it liberation, got paid nothing, and now debugs JavaScript for a living.

Did the industry exploit a r*pe survivor who reframed her trauma as feminism, or did she exploit it right back and walk away with a CS degree before anyone figured out what happened?

P Diddy’s son walked up to her, ignored her friend, and said: “You. Only you.” He handed her white slippers. That was her ticket inside. She walked into a room where bodies were pressed together like sardines. Sweat dripping from every surface. Sex in every corner. Naked waitresses pushing drinks into her hands. People she couldn’t wake up if she snapped her fingers in their faces. She didn’t take a single sip. She says that’s the only reason she’s still here.

In the video below, she describes the inside of that mansion the way a firefighter would describe walking into a burning building. No gossip. No drama. Just a woman mapping out every exit she could find.

Here’s how she got there. A Saudi Prince flew her to Miami. Told her she was meeting producers. Two weeks of shopping sprees and restaurants. Then at 4 a.m. after a club night he said: “We’re going to P Diddy’s house.” She thought she was about to get signed.

Here’s what happened instead. They pulled up at 6 a.m. Security patted them down. Phones went into sealed bubble cases. No photos allowed except from a photo booth inside.

Diddy’s son was at the entrance. He walked through the crowd of girls, looked her up and down, and handed her white slippers. Her friend got nothing. “This is how you get in the house.”

She walked in. The music hit her chest like pressure. Bodies everywhere. Moist air. Every corner had something happening. A huddle here. A group there. People having sex out in the open like it was part of the decor.

Naked waitresses kept circling. “You want a drink? You want a drink?” She said no every single time.

She says everyone inside looked like zombies. “If I snapped my fingers in anybody’s face, they weren’t going to be all the way there.”

She turned around and walked out before anybody could hand her something she couldn’t put down.

She says she flew to Miami for a record deal. Instead she walked into a room where the only thing getting signed was your silence.

Was she the one who saw too much, or just the one who didn’t drink enough to forget?

Elsa Jean’s throat turned white before she left the building. Her glands swelled shut by midnight. The studio already knew why. They sent her into a g*ngb*ng with a man they knew was infected, because replacing him would have cost them one performer. Keeping him cost her a career.

In the video below, she tells it the way you’d explain a landlord who changed the locks while you were at work. No tears. No trembling. Just the math of what happened and who decided it.

Here’s how it started. She agreed to shoot a g*ngb*ng. It was already past her limit. More men, more risk. So she set one rule. Every man on set had to show a test from the last 24 hours. Not last week. Not three days ago. That morning.

The studio said yes.

On set, things felt wrong from the start. Equipment kept getting moved around for no reason. The makeup artist pulled her aside and said something didn’t feel right. So Elsa walked up to every man in the room and asked them face to face. “You got your test back this morning, right?”

Every one of them said yes.

She shot the scene.

Within hours, her throat was coated white. She says “disgusting” is the only word for it. By that night her neck was swollen. She texted the studio.

They told her she probably caught it from someone she was dating.

Then came the truth. “So-and-so was dirty. We thought you were going to be okay.”

They didn’t think. They chose. She says they saw the results that morning, knew one man was infected, and decided the scene was too expensive to lose. Four men on set. Sending one home would have fixed everything. Nobody sent him home.

The STD was treatable. She recovered. But the scene was never released. She believes the studio buried it because they knew what a lawyer would do with it.

She didn’t sue. She didn’t name them. She just never came back.

The makeup artist saw it before anyone. The director saw the test results before anyone. One of them said something. The other one said “action.”

Was it negligence, or did a roomful of adults decide one girl’s body was worth less than one day of production?

[Tekki @0xTekki]

She was one of the most searched names on P*rnhub. At 27 she called everyone she knew for a place to sleep, every one of them said no, and she walked from the San Fernando Valley to Skid Row. She died there, inside the RV of a man she had never met.

Her name was Lauren Kaye Scott. The industry called her Dakota Skye.

She was born in 1994 in the Tampa area. Her aunt says she grew up in a family of drugs, alcohol and abuse. She started shooting in 2013. She stood about five feet tall, so studios kept casting her as a teenager well into her twenties. She made more than 300 videos and was nominated for AVN Best New Starlet in 2015.

In the video below, she is at a casting and says she hasn’t shot real p*rn yet. She talks about dropping out of high school two credits short and webcamming for tips the way you’d talk about a part-time job at a mall. Twelve minutes in, the man behind the camera asks her to take off her ring.

In 2017 she was arrested after hitting her boyfriend.

Before the end of 2018 she stepped away from the industry to get sober.

In 2019 her mother died of addiction and alcoholism.

By spring 2021 she was working as an escort. Her aunt says she was still fighting alcohol and fentanyl.

On June 9, 2021, a man in a trailer on Skid Row called the police. She was dead inside.

The coroner listed her as homeless. Rolling Stone reported she had been living with a boyfriend in Woodland Hills.

Cause of death: acute multidrug intoxication.

Millions of people searched her name. On her last night, nobody she called had a couch.

So what put her in that RV, the industry that cast her as a teenager for six years, or the family she was running from before her first scene?

[Tekki @0xTekki]

A former p*rn actress walked onto set expecting light choking and a little spitting. What happened was nothing close. They left marks on her face she never agreed to. They used objects on her body she never consented to. They made her physically sick on camera. That scene became the most popular thing she ever filmed.

She told them beforehand not to touch her face. Eye infection. Everything else was a go. What “everything else” meant on paper and what happened on camera were two different things.

The scene got worse. The drinking kept pace. By the end, she says she had not consented to any of it.

The footage was edited, released, and blew up. Her fan base exploded overnight. Not because of who she was. Because of what was done to her.

Then came the clients. 75% of the men who booked her for escorting wanted one thing: to recreate that scene. Every time, no. Every time, she explained it wasn’t real. After that day, she never truly knew if she was safe with any of them.

One scene she never agreed to became the only thing she was known for. And every man who found her wanted to do it again.

In the video below, she tells it in under two minutes, like someone who has had to explain this so many times that the words don’t shake anymore.

Was she a performer who signed up for an industry, or a woman who walked onto a set and walked off as evidence?

[Tekki @0xTekki]

An MMA fighter broke into her house, tortured her for hours, broke 18 bones in her face, tried to r*pe her, then went to the kitchen looking for a knife to finish her. She was naked and soaked in blood, listening to him open drawer after drawer. She ran into the street at 3 a.m. and knocked on three doors. Nobody let her in.

Christy Mack was one of the most recognized names in p*rn. Millions of fans, magazine covers, a career most girls in the industry would trade everything for. Then she started dating Jon Koppenhaver, a professional MMA fighter who went by the name War Machine.

Their relationship was on and off for a year and a half. She was afraid of him, she says, but she made the decision to leave. She started seeing someone else. She kept a friendship with Jon. That night, she was texting with him, flirting. It was normal for them. Her friend, the new guy she’d been seeing, was staying over. He was going to help her set up for a signing at a casino the next morning.

Jon broke into her house.

He started beating the other man first. Christy called 911. The police didn’t come. She called again. Then she deleted the calls from her phone because she knew he was coming for her next, and the first thing he always did was go through her phone.

Her friend left. He just walked out the door and went home. He left her alone in the house with a man who had beaten her before and who he knew was capable of worse.

Then Jon tortured her for hours. She says she lay on the floor trying to give him reasons not to end her life. She thought he was finally seeing reason. She thought he might leave.

He took her phone, walked downstairs into the kitchen, and she could hear him opening drawers. He was looking for a knife.

“I just knew I had to get up and leave that house,” she says. She was naked. She was covered in blood. She ran into the street at 3 a.m., knocking on doors. Three people came to their doors. Nobody let her in. Not one person opened.

She hid behind a bush in someone’s front yard and passed out.

She woke up in a hospital. Later, police confirmed every knife in her kitchen had been laid out on the counter.

In the video below, she tells the whole story herself, and she cries exactly once, at the part you wouldn’t expect.

War Machine got life in prison. The friend who walked out that night never called the police. And Christy Mack says she wouldn’t take any of it back, because it gave her a voice that’s kept other women from ending up on that floor.

So did the system fail her that night, or did every single person in her life fail her first?

[Tekki @0xTekki]

Pre-med student at 19. One of the highest-paid p*rn stars in America at 24. Then she moved into Charlie Sheen’s mansion with her bags and found another girlfriend already standing in his kitchen. Weeks later he was fired from the biggest show on TV and screaming about tiger blood on live television while she smiled from the couch. Four years later he announced he was HIV positive, and she says he never told her.

Her name was Rachel Oberlin, a farm girl from the corn fields of Fort Wayne, Indiana. She changed it to Bree Olson. In 2011 Sheen introduced her to the whole country as one of his two “goddesses”, the women who “completed the three parts of my heart.”

In the video below she finally tells what that house was really like. On camera they looked like one happy, kinky family. Behind the scenes, she says, “you could cut the air with a knife.” She felt she couldn’t even show him affection because of how the other girlfriend would react, and that girl, she says, was crying every single day.

She knew the stories before she moved in. The reports that he allegedly held a knife to his ex-wife. The night another p*rn star was found locked in his hotel bathroom. She says she figured it was all tabloid noise, and that she never once saw him violent or on drugs.

Then came the part nobody expected. His assistant asked her if Charlie had told her about the other woman. She had no idea. She walked into the house, and there she was in the kitchen, not happy to see her or her bags.

A week later the whole country watched him unravel live on TV. She still defends him. She says she sees “little boy Charlie” in him and just wants to protect him from the world.

So was she a girl who got swallowed by the craziest house in Hollywood, or the only person in that mansion who actually loved him?

[Tekki @0xTekki]

A crying girl, one guy throwing up, another slipping and falling flat into the mess, all on a professional p*rn set. And that is the story they tell to warm up. Then she casually adds that she once pumped two gallons of milk into herself for a scene, that a phone she put inside herself started ringing mid-take, and that she once lost a snooker ball inside a co-star in Lanzarote.

They are Mackenzie and Marcus, a British couple who met in a London strip club around 2000. He was running the club, she came in as a dancer, and she says she spent months offering him threesomes until he finally left an 11-year relationship for her.

He told her she could be the biggest p*rn star in England if she listened to him. Within a couple of years she was reportedly the highest-paid girl in the country, Jenna Jameson personally signed her, and in 2006 she won Best New Starlet at the AVN Awards.

In the video below the interviewer asks them to shock him, and they don’t even hesitate. He calls it “the disgusting side of the business” and tells it like a movie scene, step by step. She laughs through all of it, and then tops it with her own stories.

Marcus says sex on camera has turned into a circus about how much one person can take. He has 280 million views on his videos. His romantic films barely crack 200 thousand, while his most taboo scene sits at 25 million. “That’s the state of the world now.”

They now say they live boring lives, go to bed at nine and get tested every 14 days.

So is this the most honest look at what the industry really is, or proof that it stopped being about sex a long time ago?

[Tekki @0xTekki]

They offered a 22-year-old yoga instructor $10,000 to do porn. She said no. They flew her to a hotel room anyway, took her phone, and put a man outside the door.

Her parents ended up watching it on Pornhub.

It started with a Craigslist ad: "Female fitness models wanted, age 18 to 22." She was paying her own way through college. The yoga clothing shoot never existed.

In the video below, she tells it herself, from the "reference models" who vouched for the company to the papers she was told to sign without reading. Wait for what they said when she told them she was done.

She says she tried to run. She was shoved back into the room. She says she was raped.

Then they threatened her: if she talked, the video would go out with her full name, straight to her parents.

It went online anyway. Her dad's friends saw it. The link everyone was passing around was on Pornhub.

The company was GirlsDoPorn. Owner Michael Pratt was sentenced to 27 years in federal prison in 2025. Performer Ruben Andre Garcia got 20 years, his business partner Matthew Wolfe 14, cameraman Theodore Gyi 4.

In February 2026, a federal judge ordered Pratt to pay $75.6 million to his victims and declared every "model release" they signed void.

From prison, he only has to pay 50% of his prison income or $25 a quarter, whichever is greater.

Is 27 years enough for the man who built this, or should the sites that made money off her video pay too?

[Tekki @0xTekki]

Covered in scratches and dried blood, they walked up to a stranger, asked them to hit record, and calmly confessed to killing their own father and stepmother. Then they said they were escaping a cult.

The father was Pipo Nguyen-Duy. He was 64, an internationally exhibited photographer and, for decades, a beloved art professor at Oberlin College. The second victim was his wife, 56 year old Thi Tran Phong. Both were shot multiple times inside their own home in Lorain County, Ohio, on October 29, 2026.

Police did not get there because of a 911 call about the shooting. That morning they found a smoldering, modified vehicle registered to the professor sitting in an Oberlin College parking lot, with loose ammunition inside it. They found the suspect nearby. Only when officers went to check on the home did they find both bodies.

The suspect is Asia Nguyen-Duy, 31, who until last year went by Daniel Jones. Prosecutors say that after the killings, still covered in scratches and blood, they approached a nearby resident and asked that person to film them. On that video they admitted killing their family, said they were “escaping a cult,” and took full responsibility for all of it.

A man who spent his life teaching students how to see the world was shot dead in his own home, next to his wife. And the person charged with it did not run or hide. They found a camera, looked into it, and confessed.

Asia Nguyen-Duy is charged with six counts of murder, four counts of felonious assault, and one count of tampering with evidence, and is being held on a 3 million dollar bond.

Porn star Elsa Jean found out her own husband got their live-in nanny pregnant. the worst part wasn’t the affair. it was that the living room cameras had recorded all of it, so she sat down and watched it happen with her own eyes.

Elsa had been married three times, but the third one was the one she actually fell for. He was wealthy, she genuinely loved him, and she thought she’d finally built the life she wanted.

Then she learned he had gotten someone pregnant while they were still married. And it wasn’t a stranger. It was the nanny they kept in their own home to look after his older child.

Here’s the part that sounds impossible. Their house had cameras in the living room. So Elsa didn’t just hear about it secondhand. She pulled up the footage and watched the exact moment the nanny got pregnant.

She describes seeing him finish, the nanny trying to talk to him right after, and her husband just reaching over, clicking on the TV, and ignoring her like she wasn’t even there.

The woman who built an entire career being unshakable says this is the thing that finally broke her. She cried on her bathroom floor for three straight months.

She’s been married three times and thought she’d seen everything. What put her on that bathroom floor wasn’t the industry she worked in. It was her own husband, playing on a camera in her own living room.

Mike Tyson fell apart live on camera. the one question that shattered the scariest man alive was about his 4-year-old daughter

He agreed to talk about Exodus, the little girl he lost in an accident at home when she was just 4. Within seconds, the toughest man in the history of the sport was gone.

He starts describing the hospital, the other parents there whose children were also dying, and how he couldn’t understand why he even had the right to grieve. He admits that after he lost her, he vanished into a week of cocaine just to stop feeling anything.

Then the words just stop. He breaks down completely, shaking, unable to say another thing.

The interviewer ends it on the spot. He apologizes for bringing it up, leans over to take the microphone off him, and quietly tells him it’s okay to cry.

The man the entire world was terrified of, crying like any father who ever had to bury his child.

He took every punch ever thrown and never went down. this was the one hit he couldn’t survive.

Lana Rhoades was one of the most searched names on the planet, then walked away from the industry at 21. In this episode she reveals the statistic that stops you cold: the average porn star dies at 37. The average person lives to 78.

She says the 40-year gap comes from overdoses, from suicide, from what the work quietly does to the people in it. And she says the damage starts the moment a teenage girl arrives, with the exact people who are supposed to protect her.

She describes being groomed from the minute she landed in LA. Her agent handed her a checklist of acts. She marked only the softest option on it. He told her he wouldn’t sign her unless she agreed to more. Within months she had done every single thing she swore she never would.

“These are 40, 50, 60-year-old men,” she says, “who know how to manipulate an 18, 19, 20-year-old girl’s mind.”

Her conclusion is blunt. She says if the industry is going to exist at all, the agents need to be eliminated completely.

Millions of people watched these girls. Almost nobody asked who was standing just off camera, telling them what they had to do.

A serial killer who confessed to 93 murders could describe the face of almost every victim in perfect detail, but couldn’t remember most of their names.

His name is Samuel Little, and the FBI calls him the most prolific serial killer in American history. For nearly 40 years he got away with it, and the reason is its own kind of horror. He hunted women on the margins, many of them poor, many of them sex workers, many of them Black. When they turned up dead, their cases were written off as overdoses or accidents and barely investigated. Nobody was looking for the man who took them.

In these FBI tapes he sits across from investigators and recalls victim after victim with a calm that makes your skin crawl. He remembers the color of a woman’s eyes, her height, her build, the bar where he met her, the road he drove her down. Then he pauses, because the one thing he can’t recall is her name.

What finally gave the victims back their identities was his own memory. He drew dozens of them from recollection, detailed color portraits, decades after they died. Detectives used those drawings to match faces to missing women and reopen cold cases across the country.

He confessed to 93. Investigators have confirmed scores of them and believe he may be the deadliest killer the country has ever produced. He died in prison in 2020.

He remembered their faces for 40 years. The world they lived in couldn’t even remember they were gone.

A happy young couple passed Ed Kemper on the stairs, smiled, and said good evening. He smiled back and kept climbing. They had no idea what was inside the bag on his shoulder.

In this 1984 prison interview he describes that night without a single flicker of emotion. The bag was a camera bag, and it had belonged to the young woman he had just killed. Inside it was her severed head.

He called moments like that “flaunting his invisibility.” He says he did it to two of his victims at night, right in front of his mother’s house, while she was home, the neighbors’ curtains open, eleven at night, every light on, anyone could have looked out and ended it.

What unsettles the interviewer most is how he moved between two worlds. One minute alone, living out a fantasy. Five minutes later a knock at the door, he puts everything away, and stands there calmly making small talk with his landlady.

He traces it back to his childhood, to watching his father behead the family’s pet chickens and his mother making him eat them for dinner. He says it is probably not that simple, but that is the memory that surfaces.

And through all of it he looked like the last person on earth you would suspect. A soft-spoken giant who befriended the detectives on his own case and picked up everything he needed to stay ahead of them from TV crime shows.

He says the easiest part was never hiding at all. Nobody could believe the polite giant on the stairs was the man they were all looking for.

Taylor Schabusiness killed her partner, and his own mother was the one who found his remains in a bucket in the basement. Then she attacked her own lawyer in open court. The second part is what the whole internet saw:

In early 2022, during a night of sex and drugs in Green Bay, Wisconsin, Schabusiness strangled Shad Thyrion. What his mother later found of him in a bucket downstairs is something no parent should ever have to see.

She was charged with intentional homicide and mutilating a corpse, and from the very first hearing it was obvious something was deeply wrong. She smirked through the most disturbing details, like the courtroom belonged to her.

In the video below she suddenly launches across the defense table and attacks her own attorney, so violently that deputies have to pile on to drag her off while the judge clears the room.

She was convicted and sentenced to life in prison.

a young woman did something straight out of a horror film, then behaved like the horror was somebody else’s problem, and that blank, careless calm is somehow even harder to watch than the crime itself.
