There was this rumor going around in the K-Pop world in 2016 If you want your favorite artist to do well – you have to buy their albums from two specific retailers… One of those companies was called Synnara Records.  At their height, it is said they had a 30% share of the record market volume. They are one of the rare business success stories raking in millions of dollars.  Until you dig deeper.  The name Synarra means- New Nation. The record company was founded by a woman who wanted to create a new nation for her followers.  A woman who allegedly forced young healthy men to line up outside her door to wait for their golden chance to be SA’d by her.  A woman who was tried for the torture and murder of a 5 year old baby.  This is the story of the Baby Garden cult - and how they made millions in the K-Pop industry without anyone knowing… They’re still around to this day.  Full Source Notes: rottenmangopodcast.com To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy [https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy] Learn more about your ad choices.

7-year-old Heaven was brought into the Budha House to be healed. The neighbors who brought her in tried to explain - she had been playing and hanging onto a bar when she fell and hit her head. She is now unconscious.  But the healers could just take one look at Heaven and know - the little girl is dead.  When Heaven’s mom finally sees Heaven’s little body - she finds something even more puzzling. Her mouth is filled with cement. Her autopsy shows she was assaulted “front and back” and had these weird little cuts all over her body.  On her neck, you could almost make out the 5 fingers that were wrapped around her. Suffocating her.  It feels like all the neighbors are in on some big conspiracy. Why do they keep insisting that she fell when it’s so clear she did not. What are they hiding? Heaven’s mom is going to figure out what the hell happened to her daughter.  https://www.change.org/p/justice-for-heaven-and-her-mother Full Source Notes: rottenmangopodcast.com To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy [https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy] Learn more about your ad choices.

It’s an upscale neighborhood - with many residents working in government as politicians or even federal agents. It’s only a 30 minute drive to DC.  But there is one woman that most moms likely avoid at the school bus stop.  The new live in lover of the federal agent that lives down the street.  The whole thing is just eerie.  She moved into that house just months after the federal agent’s wife was brutally murdered.  And now she’s dropping off the murdered woman’s child as if… as if she’s trying to take her place? It’s just strange.  It makes people question - did she have something to do with the murder? And who was the other man that was found dead in their house?
