  The Terrible Reign of The Lords of Chaos

  Aug 17, 202610 minS8

  Kevin Foster was a high school dropout that really had nothing going for himself, but he knew how to manipulate impressionable teenagers, so he essentially started his own militia, calling himself God. He was able to gather a group of teenage outcasts from Riverdale High School, and this group would be called the Lords of Chaos. They would be dedicated to terrorizing the community, so they resorted to vandalism, robberies and arson just for the thrill of it, with their biggest crime resulting in the destruction of a Coca-Cola plant. The group had actually gotten away without getting caught. They then stole several items from their high school auditorium, but they were caught by Mark Schwebes, the band director. He confiscated the stolen property and since he recognized some of the members, he told them that they would get a visit from the police in the morning. The Lord of Chaos didn’t want their reign of terror to end, so they chose to eliminate the threat.

  Esa Åkerlund: Allowed to Murder Over and Over Again

  Aug 13, 20266 minS8

  The solution to crime has always been highly debated in our society, as appropriate sentencing lengths, parole restrictions and the death penalty are topics that always start intense conversations. In some countries, like Finland for example, they believe in rehabilitation, as their justice system has been criticized by multiple countries for its rather gentle approach to criminals. One of the worst examples of this is Esa Akerlund, a man who randomly decided to shoot into a car with five people in it in 2010, as one of the occupants was a pregnant woman. Three people died at the scene, and when Esa was arrested, he was charged with 3 murders and sentenced to 15 years. The even more insane part of this story is that he had already killed before, having a previous life sentence commuted.

  The Senseless Murder of Joey Fischer

  Jul 30, 202633 minS8

  Joey Fischer was a kid with a lot of potential, as he was an honors student at a Catholic private school in Brownsville, Texas. He was pretty popular amongst the students, so it came as a surprise when he started dating Christina Cisneros, a quiet girl who wasn’t known by many people. But like most high school relationships, they didn’t last. Even as the two seemed fine separate and were even seeing other people, Christina’s mother Dora was obsessed with their pairing. She was highly upset that Joey broke up with her daughter, constantly calling and begging him to get back with her. She consulted a fortune teller and even offered him $500 to rekindle the relationship, but he refused, sternly telling her to leave him alone. Little did he know, he had just sealed his fate, as the investigation into his murder turned into one of the most bizarre cases the country had ever seen.

  Mark Hopkinson: The Pride Before The Fall (Part 2)

  Jul 21, 202620 minS8

  Mark Hopkinson had been released from a marijuana possession charge in 1975. He came back to find his father in a dispute over water and land rights with the neighboring Roitz family. Mark and his father even beat up Frank Roitz and his pregnant daughter, but after a prosecutor that was chummy with Mark declined to press charges, the father and daughter turned to Vincent Vehar, an attorney that would become a thorn in the side of the Hopkinson family. Mark devised a plan to eliminate him and the lawsuit against him, as this involved a bomb that leveled the entire house and killed 3 people. Now that the police were closing in on Mark and his crew, the desperation to save his own skin led Mark to take some extreme measures.

  Mark Hopkinson: The Serial Killer That Never Got His Hands Dirty (Part 1)

  Jul 18, 202614 minS8

  Unless you actually live there, most Americans couldn’t tell you five things about the state of Wyoming. With its wide open plains and sparsely populated areas, crime isn’t much of a worry for its citizens. In fact, the state has only executed one person since 1976 and his name was Mark Hopkinson. As a kid, he seemed to have it all, being a star athlete in multiple sports while also having his way with the ladies. He was deemed by most to be a pretty likable guy, but behind the facade lay a more manipulative and sinister character, one who killed animals for no reason and took nude photos of his female classmates to blackmail them. Mark spoke with a level of conviction that made people do his bidding with no questions asked, so he had a group of low-level thugs that carried out his every desire, as all he had to do was make a call and someone disappeared.
