Honestly people that abuse/kill animals in such a way deserve life in prison or the death penalty. Even if you don't like animals this is typically a precursor to human murders so either way you look at it, it's all terrible and deserves harsh penalties

If someone is taking your food and you can't figure out who/why, leave some brownies made with Exlax in baggies. 😉

I almost did this once. Not because I didn’t know who was taking my food (it was my brother) I just wanted petty revenge lol

Oh dear, that Fritzl story is so disgusting, as a girl from Austria, we as a nation were deeply shocked.

[@annie_xo]

I think all of Europe was shocked to the core, I’m Swedish and I remember when the whole story came out as if it was yesterday. It’s still one of the most horrifying cases I’ve ever come across. He should never be released from prison.

[@c.w.8200]

As an Austrian I was only shocked they didn't discover 20 more cases, there's still a lot of catching up to do, in the 90s child abuse was still mostly seen as normal and justified and sexual abuse mostly covered up.

[@ASHl33164]

The diamond break in reminds me of the Clutter murders (the subject of In Cold Blood by Truman Capote) The intruders believed a rumor that there was a safe in the house, however there was not. They kept trying to get the information out of the family and ended up killing them all At least the jeweler ( and the other guy who encountered the burglars) survived their attacks

The story describing the female-dominating church sounds like the polar inverse of most religions, where women would be treated like the men in the story and vice versa....

[@jemerage8885]

Exuse me but what the hell?

[@aaronlombard3119]

My fiances church is like that, the women have no power whatsoever

[@venus_envy]

Yeah, it's just a description of normal religions with the sexes inverted, and the story was pointless too, like he said their time in the basement was horrible, but then nothing bad really happened to them besides having to sleep in a crappy basement. In real cults it's like that for women except they get raped in their early teens and forced to breed with old men. I fail to see what was so bad for these boys? Even in a fantasy men can't compare to female trauma in reality.

[@reyannawynters1800]

@@venus_envy I wouldn't put it off like that quickly. A cult is a cult and also the mental torture is another story altogether. They program children from the time they are barely walking to certain ideas. Usually too the ideas that they are lead to believe never go away! It takes years and years of reprogramming as well as therapy. Some children only grow up to become destructive, either with others around or become suicidal. Not always, but it's not very pretty

[@e.s.l5861]

I’m not at all saying having someone live in your house without your knowledge wouldn’t be terrifying, nor is it right for someone to do that. But the reality is, the guy was there long enough to have committed an act of violence had he intended to do so. Continuing to dwell on the fact that he hasn’t been caught yet may not be the best way to get past this. The family got a terrible scare, but unless I missed something the guys worst crimes were trespassing, and minor theft
