Steven Stayner - kidnapping victim, with possibly the most profoundly heartbreaking life story I’ve ever read.

Some of the terrible highlights include:

-Kidnapped at age 7

-Held captive and abused for seven years

-As Steven entered puberty, his captor eventually forced him to help kidnap a five year old boy to replace him

-After this new boy was abused, Steven felt profound guilt and self-hatred for helping to kidnap him

-He eventually managed to escape with the other victim

-However, his kidnapper ONLY SERVED FIVE YEARS IN PRISON

-After returning home, Steven had intense trouble readjusting to his old life

-Everyone knew what happened to him, and he was bullied in school over it

The most horrible part might be this quote from Steven:

”I returned almost a grown man and yet my parents saw me at first as their 7-year-old. After they stopped trying to teach me the fundamentals all over again, it got better. But why doesn't my dad hug me anymore? Everything has changed. Sometimes I blame myself. I don't know sometimes if I should have come home. Would I have been better off if I didn't?"

-Steven’s father wanted to just ignore what happened, and insisted Steven didn’t need therapy

-He sunk into alcoholism

-Even after everything that happened, his own parents kicked him out of the house

-At the age of 24 he was killed when a car struck his motorcycle

-The driver didn’t even stop to help Steven

-The driver was eventually caught, but was only sentenced to three months in jail

(Also Steven’s brother ended up becoming a serial killer. I don’t know what to make of that)

On September 21, 2008, an Indigenous Canadian man named Brian Sinclair waited 34 hours for medical attention at Winnipeg's Health Sciences Centre. Sinclair died while he was waiting and had developed rigor mortis when medical staff attended to him.

On September 19, 2008, Brian Sinclair, a 45-year-old Indigenous man and double-amputee, arrived at Winnipeg's Health Sciences Centre emergency room with a blocked catheter and a treatable bladder infection. Although directed to the waiting room, his paperwork was lost, and he was never formally triaged. Sinclair sat in his wheelchair for 34 hours without receiving any medical attention. As his condition deteriorated, other patients and security staff alerted nurses, but their concerns were dismissed. Hospital staff later admitted they assumed Sinclair was homeless, intoxicated, or just seeking shelter.

Sinclair died in the waiting room from sepsis caused by the untreated infection, and he had been dead for several hours before staff finally noticed. A 2014 fatality inquest ruled his death completely preventable, blaming systemic understaffing and a broken registration process. The tragedy sparked intense national outrage, a criminal investigation, and a civil lawsuit that ended in a settlement for his family. Indigenous advocacy groups fiercely criticized the official inquiry for failing to explicitly address how systemic racism and racial bias directly led to Sinclair being ignored to death.

David Reimer: a Canadian man who was born male, but then forcibly sexually reassigned as a female after a botched circumcision. He was raised as a girl until age 14. He and his twin brother were abused by their doctor, and both ended up committing suicide in their 30s.

David Reimer (born Bruce Peter Reimer, 1965–2004) was a Canadian man whose [privates] was severely damaged during infancy following a botched circumcision. After this, psychologist John Money advised his parents to raise him as a girl, and he was surgically and hormonally reassigned and renamed Brenda, with the aim of demonstrating that gender identity is shaped by upbringing.

For years, Money reported the case as a successful example of gender reassignment, but later research and Reimer’s own account showed that he did not identify as female. By adolescence, he was experiencing severe distress, and at age 14 his parents told him the truth. He then chose to live as male, taking the name David and undergoing medical treatment to reverse the earlier reassignment.

As an adult, Reimer spoke publicly about his experience, and his case became widely cited in debates about gender identity and medical ethics. He died by suicide in 2004.

Cara Knott was an American student who disappeared on Dec. 27, 1986. On December 28, her body was recovered at the bottom of a ravine. Her killer, a police officer, was interviewed while covering the investigation of the murder, and scratches, that were inflicted by Knott, are seen on his face.

On December 27, 1986, 20-year-old college student Cara Knott was pulled over on an isolated, unfinished highway offramp by Craig Alan Peyer, an on-duty California Highway Patrol officer. Peyer routinely targeted young, lone female drivers at this spot to make predatory advances. When Knott threatened to report him, a struggle ensued; she scratched his face before Peyer bludgeoned and strangled her, throwing her body into a 65-foot ravine.

Two days later, unaware he was a suspect, Peyer was interviewed by a TV news crew about female driver safety, inadvertently showing his fresh facial scratches on camera. This broadcast prompted dozens of women to call police, reporting that Peyer had previously pulled them over at the same offramp and made them deeply uncomfortable. Forensic evidence—including fibers from Peyer's uniform patch and a rare blood type match—directly linked him to the crime.

Peyer was convicted of murder in 1988 and sentenced to 25 years to life. The case deeply shaken public trust, causing many lone female drivers to refuse to stop for police out of fear. In a tragic aftermath, Cara’s father suffered a fatal heart attack in 2000 while tending a memorial garden built for his daughter near the crime scene. Peyer has repeatedly been denied parole due to a lack of remorse and his refusal to provide a DNA sample.

Candace Elizabeth Newmaker was a child who was killed during a 70-minute attachment therapy session purported to treat reactive attachment disorder. Candace stated eleven times during the session that she was dying, to which Ponder responded, "Go ahead. Die right now, for real. For real."

On April 10, 2000, 10-year-old Candace Newmaker was killed during a 70-minute "rebirthing" session—a form of unlicensed attachment therapy—in Evergreen, Colorado. Intended to treat reactive attachment disorder and help Candace bond with her adoptive mother, the script required the 70-pound girl to be wrapped in a flannel sheet and covered in pillows to simulate a womb. Four adults, weighing a combined 673 pounds, used their hands and feet to press down on her body to resist her attempts to escape. Despite Candace repeatedly pleading for air and stating eleven times that she was dying, the therapists mocked her, told her to "go ahead and die," and dismissed her as a "quitter" when she faintly uttered "no" to being reborn.

By the time the adults unwrapped the sheet, Candace was blue and motionless. She was flown to a hospital but declared brain-dead the following day due to asphyxia. The entire fatal session was captured on the therapists' own video recording system. In 2001, unlicensed therapists Connell Watkins and Julie Ponder were convicted of reckless child abuse resulting in death and sentenced to 16 years in prison, while Candace's adoptive mother and two therapeutic foster parents received probation or suspended sentences. The tragedy led directly to the passage of "Candace's Law" in Colorado and North Carolina, which criminalized rebirthing techniques.

Girls bravely tried to protest and escape from an orphanage due to abuse but were later caught and locked in a room without food/water/toilets. The next day a fire started in the room - but the staff still refused to open the door and simply watched them burn. 41 girls died in this tragedy. I just saw a Guatemalan film about it, called Rita (2024) - it’s truly heartbreaking. They’re still fighting for justice.

On 7 March 2017, unrest broke out at the Virgen de la Asunción Safe Home in Guatemala amid long-standing reports of overcrowding, abuse, and neglect. After an attempted escape, about 85 residents briefly fled the facility before most were recaptured by police. As punishment, around 50–56 girls were locked overnight in a classroom under police guard, while boys were returned to their dorms. This confinement directly led into the tragic fire the next day, when the locked room became the site where 41 girls died.

The aftermath was highly controversial and led to national outrage. The fire was widely blamed on severe negligence by staff and authorities. Several officials were arrested or charged, including staff members and government employees, and Guatemala’s child welfare agency (CONAPROFAM/“Hogar Seguro” system oversight) faced intense criticism. The incident triggered public protests, calls for systemic reform, and resignations within the government. Investigations into responsibility and institutional failure continued in the following years, making the case one of the most significant child protection scandals in Guatemala’s modern history.

Caitlin Jensen, 28, visited chiropractor T. J. Harpham on June 16, 2022 to have her neck adjusted following complaints of stiffness. During the adjustment, four arteries in Jensen's neck were dissected, resulting in cardiac arrest, a stroke, and a traumatic brain injury.

Caitlin Jensen, 28, a student at Georgia Southern University, visited chiropractor T. J. Harpham, of Richmond Hill Family Chiropractic in Georgia, United States, on June 16, 2022, to have her neck adjusted following complaints of stiffness. During the adjustment, four arteries in Jensen's neck were dissected, resulting in cardiac arrest, a stroke, and a traumatic brain injury. She was reportedly without a pulse for 10 minutes until she could be revived. She was left with almost full-body paralysis, capable of only blinking her eyes and moving her left thumb. Her injuries also subsequently removed her ability to eat and breathe on her own, resulting in doctors forming gastrostomy and tracheotomy tubes in her stomach and neck areas respectively.

Nine days after her disappearance, Seberg's decomposing body was found wrapped in a blanket in the back seat of her Renault, parked close to her apartment in the 16th arrondissement... Seberg's second husband, called a press conference shortly after her death at which he blamed the FBI's campaign.

Jean Seberg (1938–1979) was an American actress who became an icon of French New Wave cinema, most notably starring as Patricia in Jean-Luc Godard’s masterpiece Breathless (1960). Discovered by director Otto Preminger for Saint Joan (1957), she appeared in 34 films across Europe and Hollywood, including Bonjour Tristesse, Lilith, and Airport.

Seberg's life was tragically derailed when she became a primary target of the FBI's illegal COINTELPRO operation, ordered by J. Edgar Hoover in retaliation for her financial support of the Black Panther Party and civil rights groups. The FBI engaged in severe psychological warfare and defamation against her. In 1970, the Bureau planted a false media rumor that her unborn child was fathered by a Black Panther. The trauma caused Seberg to go into premature labor; the baby died two days later, and Seberg held an open-casket funeral to prove the child was white.

The campaign effectively blacklisted Seberg from Hollywood and permanently shattered her mental health. In August 1979, at age 40, she died of a barbiturate overdose in Paris in a probable suicide. Her ex-husband publicly blamed the FBI's relentless smear campaign for directly causing her destruction.

After four decades Walter Freeman had personally performed possibly as many as 4,000 lobotomies on patients as young as 12, despite the fact that he had no formal surgical training. As many as 100 of his patients died of cerebral hemorrhage.

Walter Jackson Freeman II (1895–1972) was an American neurologist known for popularizing the lobotomy, a now-discredited psychiatric surgery used to treat severe mental illness.

In the 1930s, he and neurosurgeon James W. Watts helped introduce the prefrontal lobotomy in the United States, based on the earlier work of António Egas Moniz. Moniz developed the procedure (then called leucotomy), which involved cutting brain connections in the frontal lobes. For this work, Moniz was awarded the 1949 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.

Freeman later created the faster “ice-pick” transorbital lobotomy, performed through the eye socket, which made the procedure easier to carry out and led to its widespread use in the U.S. He traveled extensively demonstrating and performing it.

Although initially seen as a breakthrough, lobotomies often caused severe and permanent side effects, including personality changes and cognitive damage. With the rise of psychiatric drugs in the 1950s, the procedure fell out of favor.

Freeman continued performing lobotomies into the 1960s until he was banned from surgery after a patient died during an operation. Today, he is remembered as a highly controversial figure in medical history.

The parents had imprisoned, beaten and strangled their 13 children, allowing them to eat just once per day and shower just once per year. The 29-year-old weighed just 82 pounds. Some appeared to lack basic knowledge of the world, being unfamiliar with what medicine and police were.

The Turpin case involved David and Louise Turpin, a couple from Perris, California, who were arrested in 2018 after authorities discovered they had abused and imprisoned their 13 children for years. The children, aged between 2 and 29, were severely malnourished and many were found chained to beds or restrained inside the home.

The case came to light when one of the daughters, then 17-year-old Jordan Turpin, escaped the house and called emergency services, leading police to discover the conditions inside.

Investigations revealed long-term abuse including starvation, physical violence, and severe neglect, with the children reportedly allowed very limited food, bathing, and outside contact.

In 2019, both parents pleaded guilty to multiple charges including torture, false imprisonment, and child abuse, and were sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole after 25 years.

After their rescue, the children received medical treatment and entered foster care, but some later reported further difficulties and alleged abuse in certain placements, leading to additional legal actions and investigations in the years following the case.

Georgia Tann was an American child trafficker who utilised her position as a social worker to fraudulently place kidnapped children for adoption on the black market for 30 years. One such child subjected to kidnapping grew up to become Ric Flair.

Georgia Tann (1891–1950) was an American social worker who ran the Tennessee Children’s Home Society in Memphis, an organization that became one of the most notorious child trafficking operations in U.S. history.

From the 1920s to 1950, Tann used her position to illegally take children—often from poor, single, or vulnerable mothers—and place them for adoption with wealthy families across the United States. Many parents were told their children had died, and records were often falsified or destroyed. She charged large fees for adoptions and personally profited from the system.

Her work was widely praised at the time and even helped make private adoption more socially acceptable, but behind the scenes it involved coercion, kidnapping, and abuse. It is estimated that over 5,000 children were taken, and some children died due to neglect or mistreatment.

An investigation into her organization began in 1950, but Tann died of cancer just days before she could be formally prosecuted. After her death, the Tennessee Children’s Home Society was shut down and adoption laws in the U.S. were reformed.

Today, she is remembered as one of the most infamous figures in American social work history due to the scale and brutality of her actions.

The Gombe Chimpanzee war was a violent conflict between two Tanzanian chimpanzee communities observed by Jane Goodall from 1974-1978. The brutality and strategic thinking involved demonstrated for the first time how horrifically violent chimps can be, who at the time were considered more peaceful.

The Gombe Chimpanzee War (1974–1978) was a violent four-year conflict between two communities of chimpanzees in Gombe Stream National Park, Tanzania. Originally united as the Kasakela community, the group splintered over eight months into a northern faction (retaining the Kasakela name) and a southern faction (the Kahama community), consisting of six adult males, three adult females, and their young. Primatologist Jane Goodall first observed the increasing hostility as the groups established strict territorial borders.

The war began on January 7, 1974, when a party of six northern Kasakela males ambushed and fatally beat an isolated southern Kahama male named Godi. Over the next four years, the Kasakela males conducted coordinated border patrols and targeted raids, systematically assassinating every single male member of the Kahama community. One elderly male, Goliath, who had previously been friendly with the northerners, was among those turned upon and murdered. After the Kahama males were eradicated, the surviving females were either beaten, killed, or absorbed into the victorious Kasakela faction.

The conflict fundamentally shifted the scientific understanding of primate behavior. Prior to the war, Goodall and the broader scientific community believed that chimpanzees were largely peaceful creatures. The discovery of their capacity for calculated warfare, territorial violence, raiding, and murder proved that a "dark side" of behavior existed in chimpanzees, revealing striking parallels to human conflict.

Frog Boys: 5 kids disappeared while searching for salamander eggs on a mountain near a military base in 1991. Their bones were found 11 years later with their clothes tied together with bullets wrapped in them. The police refused to ever investigate the military and the case remains unsolved.

The Frog Boys was the nickname given to a group of five South Korean children—aged 9 to 13—who disappeared on March 26, 1991, while searching for frog eggs on Mount Waryong in Daegu. The case gripped the nation, prompting President Roh Tae-woo to deploy over 300,000 military personnel and police officers to conduct one of the largest manhunts in South Korean history. Despite Mount Waryong being searched over 500 times and the boys' fathers quitting their jobs to look for them, no trace was found for over a decade.

On September 26, 2002, two men searching for acorns discovered the boys' skeletonized remains on Mount Waryong, in an area that had been previously searched. Police initially attributed their deaths to hypothermia, but their parents strongly rejected this, pointing to suspicious details like a boy's clothes being tied in strange knots. Forensic analysis ultimately revealed that three of the skulls suffered severe blunt-force trauma, likely inflicted by metal farming tools or a similar object, confirming they had been murdered.

The case remains one of South Korea's most infamous unsolved crimes. While the 15-year statute of limitations for murder originally expired in 2006, immense public outcry surrounding high-profile cold cases like the Frog Boys eventually led South Korea to completely abolish the statute of limitations for first-degree murder in 2015.

This is the last painting Théodore Géricault ever did. It shows him gaunt and withered as a result of tuberculosis. He is known for painting the macabre, including portraits of psychiatric patients, severed head and limbs. Many of his family members struggled with insanity, including himself.

Théodore Géricault (1791–1824) was a profoundly influential French painter and a pioneer of the Romantic art movement, best known for his monumental masterpiece The Raft of the Medusa. Géricault possessed a lifelong fascination with the macabre, the grotesque, and the limits of human suffering, frequently visiting hospitals and morgues to study and paint severed limbs and the heads of guillotine victims to achieve anatomical realism. Toward the end of his short life, he famously collaborated with a psychiatrist to paint a groundbreaking series of ten hyper-realistic portraits documenting psychiatric hospital patients, capturing the distinct expressions of various mental illnesses.

Géricault's final years were plagued by a rapid, agonizing physical decline caused by chronic tuberculosis and a series of severe horse-riding accidents that left his spine badly damaged. Bedridden and facing his impending death at the age of 32, he completed his final poignant work: a raw, unflinching self-portrait drawing that captured his own gaunt, withered, and hollowed face. He died in Paris in January 1824, leaving behind a legacy that fundamentally shifted European art away from rigid Neoclassicism toward raw, emotional realism.

In 2006, an Ohio State medical student named Brian Shaffer entered a bar with friends. After being recorded entering through the bar's only publicly accessible entrance by security cameras, Shaffer was never seen exiting the bar and has never been seen or heard from since.

In the early hours of April 1, 2006, 27-year-old medical student Brian Shaffer mysteriously vanished after celebrating the start of spring break with friends at the Ugly Tuna Saloona bar near the Ohio State University campus. Security footage from the building's only public entrance recorded Shaffer talking with two women at 1:55 a.m. before stepping off-camera toward the bar entrance. Despite extensive frame-by-frame analysis, no video evidence ever captured him exiting the building when the bar closed at 2:00 a.m., leading investigators to conclude with 100-percent certainty that he did not leave via the main escalator exit.

The case became an enduring mystery because the establishment had no other publicly accessible exits aside from a service door leading to a poorly lit construction site. Police canine units, landfill searches, and a thorough inspection of Columbus's sewer system yielded no trace of Shaffer, and his car and personal belongings remained untouched at his apartment. While some friends and family suspected a companion from that night was withholding information after refusing a polygraph test, police also investigated theories that Shaffer ran away to start a new life or fell victim to foul play. The tragedy deepened in 2008 when Brian's father, Randy Shaffer, who spent his remaining years desperately searching for his son, was killed by a falling tree branch during a storm. Shaffer remains missing, and his disappearance is widely considered one of the most baffling missing person cases in modern history.

Ervil LeBaron was the founder of the Church of the First Born of the Lamb of God, a Mormon sect who practiced the doctrine of Blood Atonement, wherein nonbelievers’ souls can be redeemed through being righteously killed. Ervil is believed to be responsible for the deaths of at least 35 people.

Ervil Morrell LeBaron (1925–1981), dubbed the "Mormon Manson," was the leader of the Church of the First Born of the Lamb of God, a polygamous Mormon fundamentalist cult. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, LeBaron orchestrated a violent murder spree, utilizing the religious doctrine of "blood atonement" to justify the execution of more than 25 people. His targets included rival polygamous leaders, defectors, and members of his own family, including his older brother Joel LeBaron and his own pregnant 17-year-old daughter, Rebecca, who had attempted to leave the sect. LeBaron controlled his followers—which included at least 13 wives and over 50 children—through intense psychological manipulation and fear, often ordering his underage brides and stepchildren to carry out the contract killings.

Following a multi-year manhunt, LeBaron was apprehended in Mexico in 1979 and extradited to the United States, where he was convicted of ordering the murder of rival fundamentalist leader Rulon C. Allred. He was sentenced to life in prison and died by an apparent suicide at the Utah State Prison in August 1981. Even after his death, LeBaron's violent influence persisted; while incarcerated, he authored a 400-page manifesto called The Book of the New Covenants, which contained a hit list of disobedient members. In accordance with his written commands, his remaining fanatical followers executed several coordinated assassinations—most notably the 1988 "4 O'Clock Murders" in Texas, where three former members and an eight-year-old child were killed simultaneously, leading to subsequent federal prosecutions of his children well into the 2010s.

Green Boots is believed to be Tsewang Paljor, who died during the 1996 Mount Everest Disaster, though his official identity is not confirmed. While of the most famous, he is one of many bodies on Everest frozen in time, and even used as a landmark for other climbers.

“Green Boots” is the nickname given to an unidentified climber’s body on Mount Everest, located on the northeast ridge route at about 8,500 meters in the “death zone.” The body became famous because it lies in a small limestone cave directly along the path to the summit, so climbers regularly passed by it for years and used it as an informal landmark.

Most sources believe the body is that of Tsewang Paljor, an Indian climber from an Indo-Tibetan Border Police expedition who died during the 1996 Everest disaster after being caught in a severe storm while descending from an attempted summit.

The nickname comes from the climber’s distinctive bright green boots, which helped identify the body. Because of the extreme altitude and conditions, the body was not recovered and remained in place for decades, becoming one of several well-known tragic “markers” on Everest.

In 2014, the body was reportedly moved slightly off the main route to reduce its visibility, though it has remained a symbol of the dangers of high-altitude climbing.

Today, Green Boots is remembered as a haunting reminder of Everest’s risks and the fact that many who die there cannot be brought down.

In 1966 an 18 year old man entered the Rose-Mar College of Beauty in Arizona. He shot the seven people inside, five women, a toddler and a 3 month old baby. When questioned on his motive, he said he did it simply to get his name out there.

On November 12, 1966, 18-year-old Robert Benjamin Smith carried out a mass shooting at the Rose-Mar College of Beauty in Mesa, Arizona. He entered the school armed with a .22-caliber revolver and forced five students, a customer, and two young children into a back room. He then arranged them on the floor and attempted to suffocate them with plastic bags before opening fire.

Smith killed five people—four young women and a 3-year-old girl—and injured two others, including a baby who survived after being shielded by her mother. One surviving victim survived by pretending to be dead. The attacker was arrested at the scene without resistance.

He later told investigators he was motivated by a desire for notoriety and was inspired by other mass killers earlier that year, including Charles Whitman and Richard Speck. The case is often described as one of the earliest examples of a “copycat” mass shooting.

Smith was convicted, initially sentenced to death, but later resentenced to life imprisonment after appeals and legal changes. He spent the rest of his life in prison and died in 2024.

Today, the shooting is remembered as a particularly early and influential example of fame-seeking mass violence in the United States.

JFK's sister Rosemary Kennedy, was lobotomized at 23yo for being "irritable," leaving her incapacitated and unable to speak for rest of her life.

Rose Marie “Rosemary” Kennedy (1918–2005) was the eldest daughter of Joseph P. Kennedy Sr. and Rose Kennedy, and the sister of U.S. President John F. Kennedy.

From early childhood, she showed developmental delays and learning difficulties, and as a young adult she also experienced mood swings and behavioral struggles. In 1941, when she was 23, her father arranged for her to undergo a prefrontal lobotomy, a procedure that was then considered a treatment for mental illness but is now widely discredited.

The surgery severely damaged her brain, leaving her permanently incapacitated and unable to speak or care for herself. Afterward, she was placed in long-term institutional care in Wisconsin, where she remained for the rest of her life. For many years, her condition and location were kept largely private from the public and even from some family members.

In later decades, the truth about her lobotomy became known, and her story is often cited as a major example of the risks and ethical failures of early psychosurgery. Her experience also influenced members of her family, particularly Eunice Kennedy Shriver, in advocating for people with intellectual disabilities and founding the Special Olympics.

Duncan MacPherson - a Canadian professional ice hockey player who disappeared in Austria in 1989. In 2003, his remains were found in a melting glacier.

Duncan MacPherson (1966–1989) was a Canadian professional ice hockey player who disappeared mysteriously in Austria, only to be found frozen in a glacier 14 years later. A first-round NHL draft pick by the New York Islanders in 1984, MacPherson was traveling through central Europe in August 1989 before heading to Scotland to take a job as a player-coach. He planned to visit the Stubai Glacier Resort in the Austrian Alps for a brief snowboarding excursion but never arrived at his final destination. His family launched an extensive search, discovering his borrowed car in the resort's parking lot six weeks later, though no trace of him was found at the time.

In 2003, a resort employee spotted a glove emerging from the melting Schaufelferner Glacier in the middle of a ski run, leading to the recovery of MacPherson's perfectly preserved body. While local authorities initially deemed his death an ordinary alpine accident, independent investigations and forensic analyses revealed that his limbs and snowboard had suffered severe, uniform structural trauma consistent with rotating machinery. Investigating author John Leake proposed that MacPherson was injured on the slope and subsequently run over on a foggy day by a heavy snow-grooming machine. Instead of reporting the accident, the operator or resort management allegedly concealed his body in a shallow crevasse, leaving his death officially unsolved and a subject of permanent controversy.
