On November 27, 1978, Former San Fransisco Supervisor, Dan White, snuck into San Fransisco City Hall and shot and killed Mayor George Moscone. White casually walked down the hall. During his walk, he bumped into Supervisor Harvey Milk. Milk was a advocate for the LGBT community in San Fransisco and was an openly gay man himself. White asked Milk to "talk". They both entered a small room, where White shot at Milk multiple times . The first three shots were non-fatal, the last 3 were right to the head. White's motivation was that he was upset with Milk and Moscone because they would not let him back on the Board of Supervisors. White only served 4 years in prison.

Before El Chapo, there was Pablo Escobar. One of the world's biggest drug lords. At one time, he supplied the world of 80% of its cocaine. He was so rich that he built his own prison!

He was sanctioned the murders of over 600 Medellin police officers, had several opposing politicians assassinated, and killed innocent bystanders in car bomb explosions across the city.

Today, we look at John Lawson, who would later change his name to Pazuzu Algarad. He lived life the way he wanted. Grabbing the attention of outcasts in the town of Winston-Salem, NC, these misunderstood young adults would flock to Algarad's home to partake in drugs, alcohol, orgies and animal sacrifices. His house was beyond disgusting. The smell of urine and feces. Trash piles everywhere. Rotting animal carcasses lie on the floor. Animal and human feces. smeared into the carpet.....It was truly The House of Horrors.

Thought to be a result of the East Coast - West Coast Hip Hop feud and the retaliation of the murder of Tupac Shakur, taking place 6 months earlier. Big's murder has gone unsolved for 24 years.....or has it?
