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.

They’re all wearing the same blue tracksuit. Thousands of them standing out in the middle of the woods wearing the same thing. What is this place?

They’re out in the middle of the woods - in what appears to be a small secretive city? A military base? How did they get 60+ buildings out here in the middle of the forest?

And that giant wall… it’s 30 feet tall. Tall enough to keep people out. Or keep them in.

The guards are watching each of the track suit wearing people with precision. One wrong move and you get beat. That’s when they hear it…

The man starts running up onto the roof of one of the buildings - and there he goes. He flies off the top and lands in front of everyone. On his head.

Someone standing right there says - “honestly, I didn’t know the sound of someone’s head exploding could make such a loud splitting sound. I saw his skull explode open.”

A guard member walks out and sweeps up his brains and bones as if nothing happened. Sounds familiar doesn’t it? It kind of sounds like the plot of one of the most famous series on Netflix, Squid Game.

But it’s not.

This is the real life case of the Brother’s Home in South Korea.

The true story behind Squid Game.

I received an email from the ex-wife of a serial killer. The subject reads: “ I was married to a serial killer for 7.5 years and I need help!!”

Her ex husband was sentenced to death for the murder of 3 women. When authorities searched his house they found a soundproof torture chamber. Whips, iron chains, and many many files. Video files of him torturing his victims - plucking out their nails one by one.

Now, his ex wife has come forward to ask for help. She was not only one of the first people he tried to kill but now her son (that she shares with him) has been taken. The serial killer’s mother has taken her son and now she’s on the hunt to get him back.

This is her GoFundMe: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-reunite-a-mother-with-her-son-after-35-year
