  • Mini Crawlers: Love Has Won Cult

    A bizarre organization called Love Has Won was recently forced out of Hawaii by law enforcement for causing fires, riots, and vandalism. They are a Colorado based cult whose leader, Amy Carlson, goes by “Mother,” is a former McDonalds manager, an alcoholic, and drug addict. The group live-streams every day, where the leader can be seen verbally abusing members. The leader has also taken disability and social security checks from members. In May 2020, they came under fire for leaving a man in the desert naked for three days. A missing person is also connected to the cult. 

    ALSO: Ali is devastated by the news that her dog can’t see her red lipstick because dogs have a dichromatic color perception- they can’t see red or green.

  • Hwaseong Strangler: The Zodiac of South Korea

    Between 1986 and 1991, the bodies of 10 women were found raped and strangled to death in the South Korean city of Hwaseong. It was the largest criminal case in South Korean history, often compared to the Zodiac murders, with over 21,000 suspects investigated. A movie based on the crimes called Memories of Murder was released in 2003, directed by Oscar winner Bong Joon-ho of Parasite. The murders went unsolved for over 30 years until 2019 when there was a break in the case.

    ALSO: Ali wants to be a crime scene psychic, Melissa refused to ride the bus home from preschool if there was a substitute driver.

  • Bethel Church: Cult?

    Bethel Church in Redding, California is a non-denominational megachurch that has made plenty of headlines over the years. Some claim it’s actually a cult that has huge influence over the city of Redding. In December 2019, two Bethel members tried to resurrect their dead toddler and raised over $70,000 on GoFundMe. Their church services include something called a “Glory Cloud” where glitter and feathers rain down. Sherri Papini also has an odd connection to Bethel.

    ALSO: Maria finds some shocking audio clips.
