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:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
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.

May 15th, 2016 was supposed to be a fun day for 28-year-old Jerome Baker III and his six children. That day, Jerome planned to take his children to Six Flags in Eureka, Missouri. Before they could leave for their trip to the amusement park, Jerome seemingly vanished from his home in St. Louis. He was never seen alive by his loved ones again. 
According to reports, a woman that Jerome was dating planned to join him and his children on the trip to Six Flags. The couple spent the morning at Jerome's residence, preparing for their day at the park. Then, around 10:00 AM, the woman borrowed Jerome's car, bringing one of his kids with her, to go pick up her own children for the trip. 
After the woman left, Jerome called his best friend to ask if he could borrow his car to drive the rest of the children to Six Flags. His friend agreed, and subsequently drove over to Jerome's house so he could use the vehicle. When his friend arrived, approximately 11 minutes after their phone call ended, Jerome was nowhere to be found. 
Most of Jerome's personal items, including his wallet, jacket, and extra cash were left behind. The only item that vanished with him was his cell phone - but all calls and texts to the phone went unanswered. Jerome's mother was alerted about her son's sudden absence, and as such, she went to his house to investigate. Once there, Jerome's mother noticed that there were drag marks in the dirt in her son's backyard. 
Jerome was reported missing to the St. Louis Metropolitan Police. Unfortunately, the police's investigation did not yield any clues to Jerome's whereabouts. Months later, in October 2016, a utility worker found a human skull in a vacant dump site on Bircher Boulevard and Riverview Boulevard. The skull was later identified as that of Jerome Baker III. His remains were found an approximate 10-minutes' drive from his home. Jerome's death was classified as a homicide.
It's been reported that Jerome's mother has pleaded with police several times to take more action in her son's case. In fact, after Jerome vanished, his mother reportedly made "pleas to have her son’s phone pinged, with law enforcement initially giving her the runaround. When they finally acted, a chilling revelation emerged – a 911 call made on the day of Jerome’s disappearance captured him fighting for his life against multiple assailants."
Despite this information, there have been no arrests for Jerome's murder. No suspects or persons of interest have ever been publicly identified. The case remains unsolved, and Jerome's loved ones are left without answers. If you any information that could lead to the arrest of Jerome's killer(s), please contact St. Louis Police Department at (314) 444-5738.

"I know you loved your life and I loved your life too. And knowing how much you loved yours, I must love mine the more. I will always be thinking of you and hoping that you are having ice cream in heaven. I know you are an angel there and someday I will be with you.
The clouds will be pink like the walls of your room and we will be laughing together and looking forward, and back, and not missing each other anymore.
Love forever, Your friend, Lindsey"
- An excerpt from a letter written by Lindsey, a friend of JonBenet, on the 6th anniversary of her death.

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.

March 15, 1975
Cunningham was last seen in Vail, Colorado on March 15, 1975. She was last seen wearing a brown suede jacket, blue jeans, a ski cap, and boots. She worked for a ski shop and part time as a ski instructor at the time of her disappearance. She had lived in the Vail area for several years. Cunningham disappeared early in the evening after she left her apartment in the Apollo Park neighborhood to visit a local tavern. She has never been heard from again. Although he was never charged in her case, Cunningham is believed to have been a victim of the serial killer Ted Bundy. Bundy stated he lured Cunningham into his vehicle by posing as an injured skier on crutches and asking her to help carry his ski boots. Feigning injury was a common technique for him. He knocked her unconscious, drove her to a remote area about eighty miles west of Vail .He states he strangled her and then disposed of her body in a shallow grave near Rifle, CO.

The Execution of Tatiana Usmanova:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
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.

Nicole Evelyn Silvers was only 16 years-old when she vanished during the early morning hours of April 9th, 2014. The teenage girl disappeared from Longmont, Colorado. Reports state that Nicole was last seen sitting in a dark colored 1980s-model sedan near the 1000 block of Sunset Street. She has never been seen or heard from again. 
Nicole was reportedly staying with a friend's family in Longmont before she vanished, but her own family lived nearby. Certain reports state that Nicole's "familial relationships may have been strained" at the time of her disappearance. However, Nicole spent time with her older sister on April 8th - the day before she vanished.
According to reports, Nicole's older sister dropped Nicole off at her friend's house on the evening on April 8th, 2014, and then never saw or heard from her again. It appears that the last documented sighting of Nicole occurred later when she was spotted sitting in the sedan near Sunset Street. Her whereabouts since then remain unknown to this day.
Nicole was initially classified as a runaway, but eventually, investigators changed their tune. In fact, Weld County Cold Case Detective Byron Kastilhan told reporters that he does not believe Nicole had motive to run away. She was a high school student, she had a job at a local pizza parlor, and a lot of loving people in her life. There is also no evidence that Nicole planned to leave on her own accord.
Over the years, there has been a lot of online speculation about what might have happened to Nicole. Some commented about Nicole having a boyfriend who was in his 20s - but it's unclear if this boyfriend was ever identified. It is also unclear who owned the car that Nicole was last seen sitting in. 
There are a lot of unanswered questions about Nicole's disappearance. She remains missing today. If you have any information that could lead to her whereabouts, please contact the Weld County Sheriff's Office at 970-356-4015.

During the fall of 1996, JonBenet attended High Peaks Elementary as a Kindergartener, or “real school” as she liked to call it. She took to school life like a bird to air and excelled in her subjects, advancing to 1st grade level math by December. A pal to all, she quickly befriended her classmates and became the go-to person to escort students down to the nurse’s office when they were not feeling well.
In her first semester report card, JonBenet’s teachers described her as a bright and compassionate child. Her art teacher wrote, “She draws happy, sunny pictures. She is talented and a care-giver to other students.”
Her music teacher noted, “JonBenet loves to dance and sing. She always makes sure that each student has his/her turn.”
