In the SERIES FINALE of I Could Murder A Podcast, Tom, Ben & Dan dive into the chilling story of The Ant Hill Kids — a cult so twisted it would leave even the most hardened true crime fans speechless. Led by the sadistic and self-proclaimed prophet Roch Thériault, this so-called "commune" in rural Canada spiraled into an isolated nightmare of control, cruelty, and unthinkable abuse.
We uncover how Thériault’s terrifying blend of charisma, manipulation, and religious fanaticism turned devoted followers into prisoners of fear — and how, despite countless warning signs, the horrors within the camp went unchecked for years. From forced amputations to brutal punishments, this is a story where the quest for spiritual purity became a descent into pure evil.
Prepare yourself: this isn’t just one of the darkest cult cases we’ve covered — it’s a stark reminder of how easily faith can be weaponised... and how silence can become deadly.
