I’m sure this story will be familiar for the majority of my readers: a lovely young mother who disappeared just a before she was due to give birth to her little boy. Nearly 3 months after her disappearance, this young woman’s torso, still donning maternity clothes, was discovered floating in the San Francisco Bay. The father of the unborn baby boy was deemed most likely the culprit. Does this sound like Laci Peterson to you?

This is one of the cases which I kept thinking about when Chris Watts claimed that Shan’ann had been responsible for killing the girls. It really is a likely story, one which has been used by countless murderous husbands…
The adults in the flat decided that an exorcism must be performed on the children, and so the torture began. The siblings were severely beaten, threatened with a knife, and one of the sisters was forced to eat a lightbulb. Eric’s reasoning for this torture was to get the siblings to confess; he even insisted that the children jump out of a window to see if they could fly. Eventually most of the kids admitted to bringing witchcraft with them, and their torture was mostly over; at that point they were all forced to help torture their brother, Kristy…

24 year old Vera Jo Reigle was mentally slow, they say that she had the mentality of an 8 – 12 year old child. She’d had a very troubled childhood, had been repeatedly abused, sexually, by both her biological father and mom’s boyfriend. Of course this caused a rift between mother and daughter; when a 19 year old Vera met a boy, 13 year old Zachary Brooks, Vera had been thrilled that his family took her into their fold. When Zachary’s mother, Cheri Lynne Brooks, offered for Vera to move in, she jumped at the opportunity. Vera just couldn’t see that these were terrible, evil people; they had been kind to her in the beginning, but they’d had ulterior motives…
Paulette was an adorable 4 year old little girl who was initially believed to have gone missing from her bed on Sunday, March 21st of 2010; eventually it was determined that she’d been in her bed the entire time.

That said, Please beware that this article does include the very upsetting crime scene photos; if this may upset you, it may be for the best that you back away now.
Funeral workers have been talking squeamish people into purchasing expensive mausoleum slots forever; they often promise a clean, dry place where your body will be well preserved. If you pay more, you may spend eternity indoors; there is often the promise of air conditioning in the summer, heat in winter, and often most importantly, there’s an understanding of no bugs. This is so completely different from the reality…
