Adam Lanza: Animal Rights and Veganism

Created only as a resource for those interested in Adam's morality, not as glorification or positive reinforcement of his mind's workings.

Statements as spoken by Adam on his YouTube channel 'CulturalPhilistine' (2011-2012), regarding his views on Animal Rights and Veganism.

"The McDonalds corporation exploits animals. I’ve been a vegan since I was thirteen but it’s kind of … completely r*tarded to think that you’re actually accomplishing anything by not . . . being a vegan doesn’t mean that you do not harm animals, by living, by choosing life you are … it’s, life is innately harmful, life is innately coercive to everyone else..."

------(Pointless) CulturalPhilistine: The Movie {28 September 2011}

"I used to think it was a contradiction for people to say, um, that it was a contradiction for people to say that b*stiality somehow violated an animal’s rights and yet those same people, the same meateaters, would advocate factory-farming. And they didn’t think that violated animals” rights, when how could you possibly say that having sex with an animal violates its rights but killing the animals not? It didn’t make any sense to me."

The Ibadan Forest of Horror:

On March 22, 2014, in Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria, a group of motorcyclists discovered a dilapidated building in the Soka forest while searching for another driver who had disappeared in the area. After locating the structure, the motorcyclists encountered 23 shackled and severely malnourished individuals. A myriad of body parts, personal belongings, and human bodies in various stages of decomposition were also discovered in the surrounding region.

These particular crimes in the forest are thought to have been orchestrated by a nameless crew of ritualists patronized by affluent Nigerians and politicians who use humans for sacrificial purposes. Some survivors stated that the ritualists responsible kidnapped their victims by claiming to be part of the urban renewal initiative operated by the Oyo State government. However, there appears to be no explicit evidence supporting this theory.

Residents of the area claimed that the Oyo State Police declined to investigate the forest despite receiving numerous reports of previous abductions within the state. Some even asserted they had contacted the authorities after hearing awful screams coming from the forest. Despite the claims, the Oyo State Police still had zero interest in investigating the whereabouts of the savages involved with these disturbing activities.

The buildings have since been eradicated, and the federal government redeveloped the area into Oyo State Comprehensive Model School, bringing the community a revived sense of hope for the coming years. To this day, no suspects in connection with the monstrosities found in the Soka forest have been arrested, and the area is still regarded as dangerous to visit.

On the night of June 19, 1984 teenage friends Ricky Allen Kasso, Jimmy Troiano, and Albert Quinones invited mutual acquaintance Gary Lauwers to the Aztakea Woods.

While in the previous months Kasso and Lauwers had had some issues that stemmed from Lauwers stealing drugs, the teens had agreed to put everything aside and enjoy a night of smoking PCP and taking LSD by the campfire.

Kasso was infamous in the quiet town of Northport, New York for his outlandish behavior and was given the nickname “The Acid King”. Because of his lack of self control and disobedient nature his parents couldn’t control him. His parents even tried to get him committed to a psychiatric facility numerous times, but to no avail with doctors stating that Kasso was not psychotic.

Therefore Kasso was often kicked out of his home where he would then couch surf with friends and live in the local woods.

When he was around the town he was often seen with a group of marijuana dealers who named themselves The Knights of Black Circle who many believed to be a Santanist group since this was the height of the “Satanic Panic”.

Even though Lauwers had returned five of the ten bags of PCP he had stolen from Kasso and paid him $50 for the other five, Kasso did not see this as enough to make up for the theft.

While the three teens had promised Lauwers a calm night in the woods, things soon took a massive turn.

Kasso and Lauwers started to physically fight. Troiano jumped in to hold Lauwers down while Kasso demanded him to say, “I love Satan” to which Lauwers responded, “I love my mother”. Kasso then began repeatedly stabbing Lauwers upwards of 36 times.

The three then covered Lauwers lifeless body with leaves and left the woods.

On July 1, 1984 an anonymous tip was called in claiming Lauwers was buried in a shallow grave in the woods. Police with the help of search dogs found Gary Lauwers body July 4th.

The following day Kasso, Quinones, and Troiano were arrested for the murder.

But, Kasso never even saw a court room. On July 7, 1984 he was found hanging in his jail cell from suicide.

Quinones and Troiano were both acquitted of second degree murder due to their drug induced state at the time of the murder.

Parkland Murderer Nikolas Cruz has been formally sentenced to 17 sentences of life without parole for 17 counts of first degree murder and 17 life sentences for attempted murder, each count to run consecutively.

The judge also garnished all of Cruz’s jail account until all of his legal fees and restitution is payed off. This is going to make prison extra tough for Cruz. Cruz is led away to serve the rest of his natural life in prison.

Denise Hart vanished at the age of 24 on January 25th, 2015. The young woman was staying with a friend in Sudbury, Vermont at the time of her disappearance, but she is originally from Hartford, Connecticut. According to her loved ones, Denise was very close with her family. She adored her young son and her siblings. She also spoke to her mother every single day. It was Denise's mother who ended up reporting Denise missing on January 27th, 2015. After Denise was reported missing, it was revealed that the car she was driving had been found completely burned out on January 26th - a day after she was last seen. The vehicle was found on a bridge in Cornwall, Connecticut. Unfortunately, the discovery of the vehicle did not yield any more clues towards Denise's whereabouts. However, the fact that the car was completely burned out was inevitably suspicious. Months passed without any news about Denise's case. Then, on December 22nd, 2015, human remains were spotted in the Gap Road area of Goshen, Vermont. Two days later, those remains were identified as Denise Hart. She had been murdered - her death was determined to have been caused by a gunshot wound to the head. Denise's killer still remains unknown. In 2018, it was reported that investigators from the Vermont State Police Major Crime Unit had taken trips to both New York and Connecticut in pursuit of leads in the case. The detectives have identified persons of interest in the case, but no arrests have been made. The friend that Denise was staying with at the time of her disappearance was investigated in the case. A podcaster interviewed this friend in 2021, and he denied involvement in Denise's disappearance and death. Some still speculate that he is involved, but at this time he has not been charged with anything related to Denise's case. Denise's murder remains unsolved. If you have any information that could help finally solve the case, please submit a tip with the Vermont State Police.

🫵🫵 !!!!HEY YOU!!!! 🫵🫵

do you want to do research on true crime RESPECTFULLY but "can't find any good documentation :'(" about it??

😱😱✨ WELL I GOT NEWS FOR YOU!!! ✨😱😱

i found out about this AMAZING tactic called-

just read the fucking wikipedia article.

it's free, does not fetishize serial killers, and doesn't put any money in anyone's pocket. the articles are provided by people who want to educate, not profit.

stop watching documentaries that do not aim to educate, that do not help the families of those effected, that rather try to fetishize, glamourize, and pity horrible people who did horrible things.

researching true crime is something you must tread carefully on. you should be researching true crime from a viewpoint of wishing to learn. it isn't some fun drama to watch and observe like a circus.

"but wikipedia articles are too long and boring and i just want to hear the drama :((((" WATCH A FICTIONAL CRIME SHOW THEN. YOU SHOULDN'T BE MAKING A SPECTACLE OUT OF A TRAGEDY.

being curious of dark events in human history is normal, and educating yourself on WHY does this happen, is what will allow us to grow and adapt.

fetishizing a murderer and acting like they're a video game character blorbo is going to do NOTHING but hurt others and show you're a real piece of shit.

i'm tired. read the fucking wikipedia articles. stop giving money to shitty companies trying to profit off of tragedies that effect people to this day. thank you.

#text #my text #true crime #tw true crime #serial killers #tw serial killers #if you cant tell im passionate about this #i spent so much time in my life researching true crime to understand why it happens from a societal and individual standpoint #only to see people trying to dot on serial killers from the 1980s calling them blorbos and gay rep #apparently none of you have a basic moral compass and im so sorry to anyone who is an oppressed group that speaks to you #morbid curiosity is normal its a normal part of human kind #but it isnt normal to think serial killers are cuddly little skrunkly boys who need to be tucked into bed like babies #long text #im so mad about this i dont understand people #anyway thats my rant #rant #waiting for the true crime community to throw a fit at my doorstep

Monica White feels lucky to be alive. She was dating a man and saw troubling signs. Months later, that man was arrested — and accused of being a serial killer.

“I knew something was wrong with him,” White, 56, tells PEOPLE in this week’s issue. “Something snapped. It was crazy.”

In late 2020, White met Anthony Robinson on the dating app, Tagged. Robinson is now known as the alleged “Shopping Cart Killer” and is the suspect in the deaths of at least six women in Maryland, Virginia and Washington D.C., with most of the bodies dumped next to the killer’s signature calling card — a shopping cart.

The Execution of Tatiana Usmanova:

The Chechen Wars were a string of vicious conflicts between the Russian Federation and the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria. These brutal onslaughts transpired in two stages, from 1994 to 1996 (The First Chechen War) and 1999 to 2009 (The Second Chechen War), producing devastating consequences for the Russian Federation and the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria in terms of significant human suffering, including military and civilian casualties, civilian displacement, and eradicated infrastructure. From 1994 to 2003, as many as 50,000 to 250,000 civilians were killed in the combined Chechen wars, along with thousands more deaths of fighters from both sides.

The spread of technology during the Chechen wars allowed for the filming of various war crimes, and it became a breeding ground for atrocious propaganda footage, mainly by the Chechen rebels. These guerilla warfare-styled fighters employed psychological warfare to strike fear into the hearts of the Russians. One of the tactics they would utilize is recording the executions of captured Russian troops, then leaving the videotape on the body for the enemy to discover. A few of these videos were eventually uploaded on popular snuff hubs like Documenting Reality or Rotten and are considered the original gore videos available to watch online. One such video was the recorded murder of Tatiana Usmanova, which had vanished for some time before emerging on the internet once again.

32-year-old Tatiana Usmanova and her husband, Hassan Edilgireev, lived in the Adreevskaya Dolina village in the Zavodsky district of Grozny. On the evening of October 1st, 2001, Tatiana, Hassan, and her friend, Elena Petrovna Gaevskaya (reportedly paying a visit to the couple), were abducted by five pro-Chechan militants from their home. According to sources, the Chechen militants accused Tatiana of collaborating with local police or other agencies. Tatiana was murdered on camera in front of Hassan, while Elena was shot to death off camera. Hassan was tortured by the rebels; however, they allowed him to live because he was of Chechen descent. All of the killers, except for the cameraman, were around 18 years of age. Tatiana's execution footage was not released to the public until 2004, after the Grozny police obtained the tape, initiating a separate investigation into who was responsible for Tatiana's murder. While everyone who participated was eventually identified, most were already dead.

The killers were identified as:

Islam Chalayev: Killed during an FSB mission in April 2002 Khamzat Tazabaev: Killed during an FSB mission in February 2004 Adlan Barayev: Killed during a special operation in 2004 Arbi Khaskhanov: Official status is unknown (may still be alive) Ilyas Dashaev: Already serving time in prison for past crimes

Sources cite that Ilyas Dashaev was part of the group led by Arbi Barayev, a Chechen warlord who had been explicitly selecting young and ruthless men to join. Dashaev then moved to a different group led by Islam Chalayev at the beginning of 2001. In January 2002, federal troops launched an operation against Dashaev and detained him. By December of that year, the Stavropol Regional Court found him guilty of murdering the heads of administrations for several Chechen villages, and two employees of the Urus-Martanovsky District Department of Internal Affairs, as well as banditry and robbery, earning him a sentence of 20 years in a maximum security penal colony. Finally, in 2007, Ilyas Dashaev was convicted by the Supreme Court of the Chechen Republic of the 2001 murders of Tatiana Usmanova and Elena Petrovna Gaevskaya and was sentenced to an additional 22 years. According to Dashnaev's court testimony, he confessed to brutalizing Tatiana and Elena for talking to authorities and dumping their bodies into a river.

Tatiana's Execution Video:

The footage of Tatiana's execution is 17 minutes and 55 seconds long, and it appears the cameraman recorded with a night vision filter inside a dark basement. Upon starting the video, you see a beaten Tatiana sitting on the dirt floor alongside Hassan, and she's interrogated for the first two minutes, occasionally being hit with a flexible rod. Despite the abuse, Tatiana appeared remarkably composed during the interrogation by the rebels.

From 2:30 to 3:50, one of the captors is seen digging a shallow pit for blood to flow in. The camera interchangeably zooms on Tatiana, and the expression on her face is of pure despondency as it seems there is no way out for her. Around 4:58, she began to panic, pleading for her life while they bound her hands together with tape. The video then cuts to Hassan having tape placed over his mouth before shifting back to Tatiana, who is on the ground with her mouth taped.

One of the rebels presses a combat knife onto her throat, not cutting it, but to practice where to cut. At 6:25, one of the rebels cuts the tape off Tatiana's mouth, and she begins murmuring to them, but what was said is not known. From 8:30 to 9:20, Tatiana has her mouth taped again as the rebels prepare for the killing.

By 9:20, the militants place Tatiana on her side by the hole. One holds her head back to expose her neck, while the other begins to sever her throat. A faint squeal leaves Tatiana's mouth as her throat is carved wide open, and her blood is seen streaming into the hole. The killers also took turns lacerating and holding her down against the dirt until she's finally decapitated. At 9:49, the footage cuts to a black screen, but you can hear the rebels talk amongst each other for about a minute or so before it cuts to Hassan at 11:06.

Hassan's head was covered in lumps and lacerations, indicating that the killers badly beat him. At 11:26, the cameraman walks around Tatiana's beheaded corpse as he laughs. One of the killers can be seen at 12:04 boasting with Tatiana's head in his hand before placing it on the floor. The remaining minutes of the footage show the killers probing Hassan, who appears to be in shock due to what he had witnessed happen to his wife, and then the video concludes.

For two years couple Ian Brady and Myra Hindley kidnapped, tortured, and sexually assaulted five children in Manchester, England where they would then bury the bodies in the Saddleworth Moor.

After witnessing the final murder of Edward Evans, Hindley’s brother in law phoned police and reported what he had seen.

Initially Hindley wasn’t arrested in connection. But, soon items belonging to the missing children were found in the home as well as photos of the murders featuring Hindley which proved she was just as guilty.

Brady was sentenced to life in prison without parole where he died of natural causes.

It was said he showed remorse for involving Hindley but never for the actual murders.

Hindley was given the option of parole after 25 years but was never granted it.

She died of pneumonia in 2002.

Suffer Little Children by The Smiths was written after vocalist Morrissey read a book about the awful crimes.

It takes its name from the Gospel of Matthew, chapter 19 verse 14, in which Jesus says:

“Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.”

Suspect in Oxford school shooting pleads guilty, including to rare terrorism count

The teenage student accused of killing four classmates in a shooting rampage at a Michigan high school last year pleaded guilty Monday to two dozen charges, including to terrorism — a tremendously unusual charge in a school shooting.

Ethan Crumbley, who was 15 when he opened fire at an Oxford, Mich., high school, was charged as an adult with one count of terrorism causing death, four counts of first-degree murder, seven counts of assault with intent to murder and 12 counts of possession of a firearm. Officials also took the rare step of filing involuntary manslaughter charges against Crumbley’s parents, who bought the gun allegedly used in the attack.

News of his plan to plead guilty emerged Friday, nearly 10 months after his lawyers said in court filings that they planned to pursue an insanity defense. His attorneys said in court Monday that they were withdrawing that notice.

The Nov. 30 shooting prompted extraordinary charges, including a state-level domestic terrorism count against the suspect.

“We are not aware of any other case anywhere in the country where a mass shooter has been convicted of terrorism on state charges,” Oakland County Prosecutor Karen McDonald told reporters Monday.

Crumbley’s guilty plea to the first-degree murder counts could lead to him spending the rest of his life in prison. Ven Johnson, an attorney for some victims’ families in a lawsuit against Crumbley, said the plea was a “small step” toward obtaining full justice.

In court, Crumbley acknowledged that he had asked his father, James Crumbley, to buy the weapon for him and gave him his own money to pay for it. Ethan Crumbley said the gun was not kept in a locked location in the family’s home.

I’m looking for active blogs to follow and engage with.

Serious blogs only I’m not looking to conversing with condoners and people who treat these subjects as if it were a fandom

This account sort of became collateral from when I had to drop out of school after losing my job during the pandemic which later became caring for my grandma in hospice.

Jessica Delgadillo has been missing since October 19th, 2011. The young girl was only 14-years-old at the time of her disappearance. Jessica was last seen leaving her family's home in Amarillo, Texas to walk to Palo Duro High School - but she never arrived. Jessica never returned home either, and she has never been seen or heard from again. Jessica's disappearance was initially classified as a runaway case, even though she did not take any money or additional clothing/items with her when she left her home. Prior to vanishing, Jessica did not have a history of running away or leaving home without permission. Police were unable to find any evidence that she planned to leave. It is unclear what, exactly, caused Jessica to be labeled as a runaway - but she was eventually reclassified as an endangered missing person.

About six months after Jessica was reported missing, police appealed to the public for leads in the case. Amarillo police Sgt. Brent Barbee told reporters that they still believed Jessica was missing voluntarily, but they were concerned about the fact that they had no additional information. In many runaway teen cases, the teen either returns after a few days, or the family/friends/police hear rumors about the teen's whereabouts. Sgt. Barbee is quoted in an article saying, "the main difference [in Jessica's case] is she's been gone for six months, and we haven't received any new information on her."

Now, several years have passed since that report, and Jessica still remains missing. Various other reports state that Jessica may still be in the local area, or she may have traveled to Lubbock or Port Saint Lucie, Florida. Police reportedly heard that information from Jessica's family - but it is unclear where that information came from, as she does not have any relatives or friends in either area. Jessica does have relatives in Mexico, but it is unknown if there is any evidence that she traveled there.

Jessica remains missing today. If you have any information that could lead to her whereabouts, please contact the Amarillo Police Department at 806-378-3038.
