In Brazil, this specific prison is known as the “real dungeons.”

Because once you get in - you feel like you’re trapped in hell until they let you out. That is - if you can even get out alive.

BBC reporters are there to interview one of the most high profile prisoners. Every single prisoner in there has been deemed a dangerous criminal - this one even more so.

She walks out. Thin frame. Short blonde hair.

She used to be a model in NYC and was reported to have dated Leonardo DiCaprio. What is she doing in here?

“Why are you in here?” - they ask her.

“They say I can control people minds. Change their brains.” - she responds.

“Can you?”

“What do you think? Can I? I hope so… when I get out you will see the power that I have and if it is real or not.”

“Is that a threat”

Did the prisoner just threaten the BBC reporters?

This is the case of Kat Torres - the Brazilian Instagram “influencer” with over 1 million followers that has been charged with human trafficking and slavery charges.

It’s not the most captivating livestream. Ash Trevino is on the phone with her boyfriend and we, the viewers, are forced to just listen to their seemingly mundane conversations.

Out of nowhere, the 36 year old mom of two starts getting angry. She starts screaming -

“He’s innocent. I don’t care what y’all say. He is innocent and y’all are going to see that. My comments are saying RIP to those who lost their lives...”

Ash Trevino starts cackling. What is so funny? Is she laughing at the 2 teenage girls her new boyfriend killed?

Or is she laughing at all the other victims her other boyfriends in prison have killed?

Welcome to the world of Ash Trevino. Dubbed the “inmate hopper” and the “worst mom on TikTok.” The internet is collectively trying to get her accounts closed and are mass reporting her to Child Protective Services.

16 year old Manohara is walking up towards the private plane. Her mother and sister are grabbing their bags from the black car behind her. She’s walking up the private jet steps… when she feels something. It’s a wave of panic?

A sixth sense? Something in her body is telling her this is not where she should be right now. She turns around and starts heading back down the steps when she hears footsteps behind her. 5 burly men come up behind her and grab her by the arms, dragging her onto the plane.

They slam her down onto her seat and refuse to let her leave. They refuse to let her family get on board.

The instructions were allegedly very clear.

Kidnap 16 year old Manohara and make sure she is returned to her rightful place in the palace.

To her husband.

The Prince of Malaysia.

“New Parent Decision Coin.”

It’s a great gag gift for new parents. On one side it reads - “daddy’s turn” and on the other it reads “mommy’s turn.” When the baby starts getting fussy, you flip the coin, and whoever’s side it lands on gets to take care of the new baby.

13 year old Maddie sends the link to the coin with the text -

“We need this - can you get this for us?”

She sends the text message to her mom’s 37 year old boyfriend, Stephan Sterns. It does not appear that Maddie’s mother is pregnant… so who is the coin for?

2 months later - Maddie is found dead.

Her “stepfather” is arrested and graphic pictures and videos of Maddie are found on his phone.

Did he kill her?

Why did he kill her?

Was she pregnant?

And how did her mother not know anything about this?

Those are all the questions netizens have in the case of Madeline Soto.

The plot of a famous thriller goes viral. It goes something like this.

A wife is called into the police station to talk about her husband. There are pictures of her husband with another girl. Graphic photos and now that girl is missing.

Does the wife know what her husband did to the missing girl? Will the wife support her husband or leave him immediately?

Jennifer Soto is at the police station and unfortunately for her - this is not a book plot.

“Do you recognize your boyfriend’s penis?”

“Yes. That’s him.”

She is shown graphic photos of her boyfriend and the girl that has now gone missing but Jennifer isn’t convinced her boyfriend did anything wrong. She says -

“I believe the sex stuff but I don’t think he did anything evil.”

The investigators pause. What did she just say?

They’re disgusted.

Because the missing girl is Jennifer’s own daughter.

13 year old Madeline Soto.

The one her 37yr old boyfriend has been abusing. And yet she defends him?

There’s been a crime in the workplace. Tim, the man in charge, is tasked with figuring out what exactly happened.

He calls in the informants and sits them down at his desk.

“What did you hear?”

They lean forward - “I heard that they meet after hours in her car and they’re having a very inappropriate relationship. She might even be pregnant.”

Tim takes notes. He interviews each of the people that could know exactly what happened… before concluding. These are all just workplace rumors. There is nothing more he should do about it.

There’s just no way that Teacher Of The Year - Brittany Zamora is SAing her 13 year old student in a classroom full of kids.

There’s no way. What would her poor husband say about this?

A lot.

He has a lot to say.

All words of support for his wife.

Dina and Tim know that the footage is going to be bad. They had already seen glimpses… but they weren’t prepared.

The baby camera footage shows a 56 year old woman standing at the edge of the bed. She’s emotionless yet she's holding a newborn baby in her arms...

She takes a moment before calmly - using all her force - to chuck the baby across the room onto the bed. Ever so calmly she walks over and stuffs blankets into the baby’s mouth and slams her down.

This is the case of the worst nanny in San Francisco. And strangely, how a TikTok executive and Snapchat executive get involved in this viral case.

“I thought trash day was just a few days ago?”

Diane hears her neighbors bringing out their trash bins to the street. How is it already trash day? Diane is a young, single mom, and sometimes things slip her mind. She shrugs and grabs the trash bins.

As she’s walking out of her backyard - a man and a young woman appear in front of her. They smash her on the head with a metal pipe. They grab a bottle and pour hot, burning, liquid acid all down her face and back.

Diane knows exactly who did this to her. Her ex-bf. The YouTuber known for eating raw squirrels and pig heads on the streets of London.

He just tried killing her. And he’s going to try again. All whilst making videos for YouTube. 

December 12th is the night that everyone has been waiting for.

The invitation is cryptic - it takes some guests weeks to figure out what it reads.

“Sdaeh tsilaer & sesserd gnol eit kcalb?”

The secret is this - you have to reflect it into the mirror to figure out what it says.

“Black tie, long dresses & surrealist heads.”

Welcome to the Rothschild's (one of the wealthiest and most powerful families) newest secret party. Everyone walks in donning a giant bejeweled mask of animals that you would normally hunt. Stags. Deer. Birds in cages.

The staff in the massive mansion are dressed as cats, perched on the stairs, meowing at the passing guests. There’s no way they’re not hunting people afterwards right?

That’s always been the conspiracy. Rich people hunting the poor for sport. But what if it is true? What if it happened in South Korea and became the inspiration of the Netflix show - Squid Game?

It’s the biggest church in South Korea but nobody knows it exists. The church itself can fit at least 4,000 church goers all at once. But that’s not the intriguing part of the church… they just do things differently.

There are a row of people standing in front of the pastor. They are asking him for forgiveness but they’re all wearing the same thing. A red sack with big ugly painted letters on there that read “I am a sinner who has gone against God’s word.”

Pastor Lim prays over them - one by one. Before he turns around and pulls out a set of red boxing gloves. He slowly, calmly puts them on and starts beating the people down. He doesn’t stop till the entire row of red sack wearing people are bloody on the floor.

Then he calmly fixes his clothes and heads back to the podium to continue preaching to the church goers.

This is not a cult story.

This is Brother’s Home.

A government funded camp to cleanse the humans of South Korea ahead of the Olympics.

The true story behind the Squid Game show.
