The Wonderland Murders

The Great Emu War

In 1932, the Australian government made a decision so unbelievable it still sounds like satire today, it deployed soldiers armed with machine guns to wage war against an estimated 20,000 emus that were invading their land.  What began as a desperate attempt to save struggling farmers during the Great Depression quickly spiraled into one of the most bizarre and embarrassing military operations in modern history.  Our other podcast: "FEARFUL" - https://open.spotify.com/show/56ajNkLiPoIat1V2KI9n5c?si=OyM38rdsSSyyzKAFUJpSyw [https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fopen.spotify.com%2Fshow%2F56ajNkLiPoIat1V2KI9n5c%3Fsi%3DOyM38rdsSSyyzKAFUJpSyw%26fbclid%3DIwAR33gdIBds2bvMZSlVy705AEZlv10V7fqiTn-dckWBwALWsBBH-Bg4jspvA&h=AT2zNO03_JF2J4ePiO1jw1JaLUWnBQTTLbOznDU2emDbj9A7w5gFniQ5mb9vUB450CmIedFB_rFXq47Hf_GUpY4cuERmAc8iC3xCTfGyKNS75jUCDYTnkeklICGtUToFd4E] MERCH:https://www.redbubble.com/people/wickedandgrim/shop?asc=u Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/wickedandgrim?fan_landing=true Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@wickedlife Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/wickedandgrim/ Instagram: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wickedandgrim/?hl=en Twitter: https://twitter.com/wickedandgrim Website: https://www.wickedandgrim.com/ [https://www.wickedandgrim.com/]

Disappearance of Frederick Valentich - UFO Encounter

On October 21, 1978, twenty year old pilot Frederick Valentich departed Melbourne on what should have been a routine flight to King Island. Just minutes after passing Cape Otway, he radioed air traffic control to report a strange object flying around his aircraft before uttering the chilling words, "It's not an aircraft," moments before radio contact was lost forever. Despite an extensive four-day search involving military aircraft, civilian pilots, and ships across Bass Strait, no confirmed trace of Frederick or his Cessna was ever found, leaving behind one of Australia's most debated aviation mysteries and a case that continues to divide investigators nearly fifty years later.

The Wonderland Murders

Forty eight hours after stealing more than a million dollars in drugs, cash, jewelry, and firearms from a powerful Los Angeles drug kingpin, members of the Wonderland Gang were attacked inside their own home. And by the time police arrived, four people had been beaten to death,one had been left permanently disabled, and the trail of evidence led through the criminal underworld of Hollywood, straight to porn legend John Holmes. More than four decades later, despite multiple trials, countless witnesses, and years of investigation, the men who carried out the murders have never been convicted.

Joachim Kroll - The Ruhr Cannibal - Part 2

For more than twenty years, Joachim Kroll operated undetected across western Germany, murdering women and children while investigators struggled to connect the crimes. During that time, multiple innocent people were accused, several took their own lives under the weight of suspicion, and dozens of detectives unknowingly searched for the wrong man.In this episode, we examine the full story of Joachim Kroll, known as the Ruhr Cannibal. From his first known murder in 1955 to the shocking discovery that finally exposed him in 1976, we follow the investigation, the victims, the wrongful accusations, and the mistakes that allowed one of Germany's most notorious serial killers to evade capture for more than two decades.
