Ominous Origins

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.

Forgive the weak title for today's episode. I am super sick, which you can probably hear in my voice... Anyway, I wanted to get something out for you, so here's a short little episode on some cults. Very brief. Okay, time to go lie down and slip into death's sweet embrace.

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!
