Why Can't We Have A Nice Adolph? | Adolph James Rode Jr.

Murder, drugs, and SA. That's what Adolph James Rode Jr., AKA Cesar Barone liked to do. He wasn't a good guy, to be honest, he almost lives up to his name. I don't want to go into the grisly details here, but just listen to find out what a gem of a prick this guy was.

Bad To The Bone | Israel Keyes

Every so often a special kind of psychopath pops up. One who plans for ages, preps his victims, and even leaves kill kits around the country. That's basically Israel Keyes. From a young age this boy wasn't right; from killing animals, to robbing, to eventually sexually assaulting and killing people, Keyes was a monster from the get go. To be fair, his family life was terrible, growing up in a white supremist household with extremist Christian views, he was doomed from the start. But sprinkle in a little bit of psychopathy, you get a recipe for a serial killer! Shocking, I know.

When is a Sapphire not a Sapphire? When it's cursed | The Delhi Purple Sapphire

Today we're looking at Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue, and a sixpence in your shoe... Wait, that's not right. We're looking at something stolen, something purple, and something cursed. Way back in the mid to late 1800's, during the Indian uprising against the British colonization, a colonel stole a magnificent purple rock from a temple. His life almost immediately fell apart. Years later a scholar came into possession of this same rock. His life, too, fell apart. The rock in question is the Delhi Purple Sapphire, and it's cursed. Good thing it sits safely behind some glass at the British History Museum.

Ken and Barbie Suck | Paul Bernardo and Karla Homolka

Today we're going to pretend I didn't just take like half a year off, and we're also going to look at one of the most notorious cases in Canadian history: Paul Bernardo and Karla Homolka. The Ken and Barbie killers, the Scarborough Rapist, the... plethora of other nicknames which ultimately don't matter. 
Bernardo and Homolka raped and murdered several young girls in the late 80's and early 90's, one of those victims was Karla's sister, Tammy. And because it's important, two other victims were Leslie Mahaffy and Kristen French. Always try to remember the victims over the criminals, please!
So, enjoy this summery of these two pieces of human garbage!

Alone in the Woods | Gary Hilton

Gary Hilton, AKA The National Forest Serial Killer was a man who stalked the national forests in the Carolina's and Florida in the early - mid 2000's. He was convicted of killing four people, however the number is suspected to higher as he was caught in his 60's. It's very unlikely that somebody like him started killing so late in life, and given the nature of his crimes, and the location of his hunting grounds, it would be very difficult to determine his exact kill count.

The Worst Time To Go Missing | Sneah Philip

Back in '01, September of '01... The 10th of September '01 to be exact, a young aspiring doctor went missing. For those of you who were alive during the time know what that means, and the rest would have learned about it in history class. That fateful September the world changed, and with it lives changed. No more so than the Philip family. Sneah went out on the night of the 10th, and was never seen again. Naturally many assumed she perished in the 9/11 attacks, but it took years for that acknowledgment to happen. Even though her official cause of death was due to the attacks, there is still some speculation about what really happened to her the night before the 11th. Trust me when I say not everything was what it seemed.
