2005: Kenneth "Mr. Hands" Pinyan of Gig Harbor, Washington, U.S. died of acute peritonitis after seeking out and receiving anal intercourse from a stallion, an act he had engaged in previously on numerous occasions without injury. Pinyan delayed his visit to the hospital for several hours out of reluctance to explain the circumstances of his injury to doctors. The case led to the criminalization of bestiality in Washington state.[152] His story was recounted in the award winning 2007 documentary film Zoo

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mojave_phone_booth
The Mojave phone booth was a lone telephone booth in what is now the Mojave National Preserve in California, which attracted online attention in 1997 due to its unusual location. Placed in the 1960s, the booth was eight miles (13 km) from the nearest paved road, fifteen miles (24 km) from the nearest numbered highway, and miles from any buildings. Its telephone number was originally (714) 733-9969, before the area code changed to 619 and then to 760.
I love weird stuff like that.

The hammer vid is awful, almost as bad as the Ken Bigley video I endured some time ago (don't bother posting a link it will be removed immediately).

I would love to believe this:-
"American officials indicated U.S. interrogators subjected prisoners to the Sesame Street theme song in long sessions during the Iraq War."

The Dnepropetrovsk Maniacs is the media epithet for the killers responsible for a string of brutal murders in Dnepropetrovsk, Ukraine in June and July 2007. The case gained additional notoriety because the killers made video recordings of some of the murders, with one of the videos leaking to the Internet.
And yes the video is quite easy to find, and no you do not want to see it.

This is the story of a homeless man who was repeatedly tricked into drinking himself until death by a gang of fraudsters plotting against him. The idea behind it was to claim on life insurance on three counts on different policy, turns out he had quite a stomach! Awesome!

I really don't get the fascination for watching videos of someone being murdered. No good can come of it. Either you're disturbed by the images or you discover that you're a fking freak who likes watching people being killed.
ETA that I know that murder is a fascinating subject. I just don't want to see it in action.

Confirmation of the former would be nice. It's also pretty interesting to see the sick st that goes on in the world and the monsters that inhabit it.
The hammer murderers looked like a couple of normal kids. I wouldn't have pinned them as fked up serial killers.
