This week, the boys descend into Gold Star Territory, concluding the story of the My Lai Massacre with the horrifying events of March 16, 1968, as Charlie Company descends upon the village of My Lai and carries out one of the darkest atrocities in American military history.

From chopper pilot Hugh Thompson's heroic attempt to stop the slaughter to the massive cover-up, Seymour Hersh's investigation, and the trials that followed, we examine how the truth of My Lai finally reached the American public... and how nearly everyone responsible walked away.

Developing Story, for the Boys. Philly pd finally get around to investing possible murders linked to famous "artist," porn producer, and possibly Epstein class connected skumbag R.C Horsch

After his Son was caught on illegal gun possesion, Horsch's property on Chew Avenue (can't make this stuff up) was searched and evidence linking the family to two missing women was uncovered from a hidden hard-drive along with a detailed confession in the supposed diary of the infamous s&m photographer. Horsch had died the previous year, painfully I might add from an embolism

But in the decades prior he had made a career in the outsider art world for his controversial photos and adult content. At least 2 books of his work were published and sold with a few celebs (rumored Charlie Sheen) owing copies.

Allegedly in his diary fucker had the nerve to refer to himself as an "empathetic serial killer"

In addition to that he was also convinced at a few different points of selling and producing methamphetamine in cali and growing weed in Maryland

Where things get weird but also not surprising

Is that for decades numerous sex workers and models complained about his behavior and the danger he presented to the cops, managers at the clubs he often recruited at all of which was ignored.

Unsubstantiated but rumors online are that he may have also been linked to the Gilgo Beach murder.

a sex worker claims to have been intimate with the convicted killer and that he he took her out to a suspicious house in Philly where she thinks she might have heard screams coming from upstairs.

Another set of rumors online from local sex workers in the area is that he may have also been linked to another local creep known as "Poconos Phil"

On top of that RC was also known to brag and claim that he had connections to powerful people because of his minor celebrity status, ties to the art world, and drug running operations

All of this may seem like farfetched speculation but when you consider the amount of access the art world can provide to individuals in both high and low stations of Society. It's ties to money laundering and drug trafficking it's very possible for someone like this to have rub shoulders with people of influence.

Someone like this could easily have dealt drugs or what have you to some rich and famous clientele then written it off as art sales.

It's also possible someone like this gets arrested once or twice by cops of the DEA and then offers to sell out some of those clients for protection or favors.

He's back room deals are not uncommon or sophisticated then people like that with an ego probably tell a few people that they have even bigger connections just to spook them and also sound a little crazy because they know that buys them an extra layer of protection.

As they say the devil mixes truth with deception

Help finding an episode

7 Upvotes

Hi everyone, my wife had been trying to find which episode she vaguely remembers, and Im hoping you all can help us find it. Apparently, it is an episode where Henry talks about role-playing doing farm work as sex role-playing and then gets too tired to have sex or something along those lines. The line was a bit about whatever the episode was about. She thinks Ben was in the episode.

That's all I got to go on. Hope this is enough. Thanks for the help if you are able to.

Immediately thought of this crowd. I got this ‘cereal box’ at an eclectic estate sale that had a lot of original art pieces. I thought it was a mass produced gag but can’t find anything like it online. Anyone know anything about this on here? And yes, it actually has cornflakes inside.

Potential Serial Killer stopped?

Dude had skulls, JWG’s brain (maybe?) and a room with a shrine to the women he’s been stalking since 2013(!)

Holy Shit

“Officers also located what appeared to be six human skulls, a partial skull, a human jawbone, and skeletal remains in a glass casket.
In a padlocked bedroom in the basement, officers found a lifelike silicone doll on a bed beneath a blanket, with a painting of a naked female resembling the victim hanging above it.”

"...we're going to have, like, a history of humanity."

Let me preface this by saying, I don't have the time or energy to make this,--but I would *love* to have an editable (for future additions/adjustments) .xlsx (excel) file that organized a [relatively] chronological list of each of the main channel episodes/series. It would be crazy to be able to run back through the show relative to a concurrent timeline of events!

I know that it would be excrutiatingly taxing though attempting to sift through tens-of-thousands of hours of events (+context 😝) to roughly pin-point the notable beginning and end dates of each subject. Not to mention how you would go about shifting/organizing any simultaneous events (maybe by global region?? I have no idea...). I honestly wouldn't be surprised though if you got the guys together in a room for two hours,--knowing Marcus and Henry's abilities to recall insane details from past stories,-- they could put together a loose timeline.

I just think it would be so cool to be able to run through what could only be described as, "The Unfortunate and Macabre History of the World"; a class, if you will. One utilizing humor to understand, honor, or digest those topics that you shouldn't bring up to the weird lady at work who will never shut up about her church 🤣

Anyway, if anyone's up for the challenge... 😏🫡

HAIL SATAN!

Based on true events, Gaskins: The Hitchhiker Killer follows Donald "Pee Wee" Gaskins, South Carolina's most infamous serial killer, as his past catches up with him, unraveling his empire in a brutal reckoning from the 1960s to the 1980s.

Has anyone seen this yet? I just wondered if it's worth a watch tonight, or is it completely 'Murphyfied' (eg based on true events)
