It was May 26th 2016 when police return to a plush apartment complex in West Hollywood after being called to carry out a welfare check. The frantic mother of 30 year old Ukrainian model & translator Iana Kasian hadn’t heard from her daughter in days after she’d left to meet her troubled fiancé. Her mom Olga knew she was still inside the building with this man, but no one was responding. When police finally gain entry after breaking through the barricaded door, what they find inside was worse than anyone could have ever imagined. They were met with a scene straight out of a gory & bloody horror movie. Tragically Iana had been tortured, mutilated, scalped & killed by her 42 year old fiance who was also the father of her 3 week old child. In today’s episode we will see how despite being born into privilege, wealth, status, & seemingly having everything going for them, some people can still turn into sadistic, psychopathic monsters. And as we will see that is exactly what became of this eccentric Canadian wannabe director….

This is episode 54: A Hollywood horror story - Blake Leibel.
