Forced To Cut Off Her Colleagues Head - The Night Of Horror In Queens - Headless Body In Topless Bar

In April of 1983, what felt like a normal Wednesday would take a devastating and unexpected turn for the worst, when a man named Charles Dingle walked into Herbie's Bar And Grill on Jamaica Ave, in Queen, NY. The bars owner, Herbie Cummings and his wife were working this night, when the unthinkable took place. The tragic event would result in one of the most famous headlines in the history of journalism, but not many know how tragic this event truly was for those involved. This is the story of Herbie's Bar And Grill. Rest In Peace Herbie Cummings, and my deepest condolences go out to his loved ones. You aren't forgotten.

25 YEARS??? Wow.. People who get caught with drugs, possession with the intent to sell, drug trafficking, etc, get more time than a person who commits murder. It’s ridiculous.

[@mellyray3017]

​@dennismcconnell4222 it's so ridiculous. I know someone serving 10 years for drugs, ten years for non violent drug offense! His bond was 2 million!! I couldn't believe it! That's more than most bonds on murder charges if they get a bond. And they can throw an intent to sell charge depending on how they feel. If someone is an addict they probably have a high ass tolerance, like who are the cops to say what's too much for an addict to the point they throw a more serious sale charge on top of possession. It makes me so mad, it's honestly pointless to arrest dealers or addicts. They need to make drugs legal and cut the bs. Arresting dealers and addicts has done what to the "war on drugs"? Lol absolutely nothing except put non violent people in jail with a record to screw up their prospects at getting a legit job which then puts them out making money on the streets. It was planned this way. Privatized prisons should be illegal, nobody should profit off of sending people to jail. How is that not unethical? And people can close their eyes to the truth and just judge something that is really a moral issue not a criminal one. If an adult wants to get high (as long as there are no other crimes being committed who cares? That's a personal choice what someone puts in their body) hell the FDA approves ingredients in our food the EU would never allow but they care suddenly if an adult wants to get high. It's simple supply and demand, as long as there are people who want to get high there will be someone to sell it to them. Arresting dealers and giving them felonies has not stopped drug use in any way. All it does it take one off the streets to fill a bed in prison while someone else takes their spot and the cycle continues and it helps noone but the people making money off of Privatized prisons. Make drugs legal like some other countries have done and you stop diseases being spread, you stop other crimes that may possibly be committed by the person trying to get money to buy drugs and you stop the overdoses! But I guess the government thinks that idea is way too crazy so Arresting non violent people and having zombies walking around Philly, LA , NY etc getting high off of God knows what the drugs are cut with and being eaten alive by the latest cut tranq, because obviously fentanyl wasn't enough. Sorry for the damn novel I just hate hearing people going to jail over drugs (especially weed but not limited to it). The answer lies with the users not the dealers so why are we choosing insanity by trying the same thing over and over again that doesn't stop drug use in this country at all. Imagine a place where an addict or once in a few user can go to safely get high with no deadly cut in it, no passing of dirty needles and then no need for crimes to get the drugs or a need for dealers! It's already happening in other countries and is working! Have help for addicts wanting to get clean and a safe space for those who aren't ready yet. That alone would drop us from being the number ¹ country with the most people in prison. I guarantee if this was implemented in the US the next generation won't be full of addicts as there won't be fake presses pills or percocets out in the world ready for a teen to experiment. Nobody wakes up one day and decides they want to try heroin. It would be there to help addicts who are already too deep in and won't look as appealing to non users if they had to "experiment" for the first time infront of a nurse. Boom "war on drugs" fixed within 20-30 years. I can't be the only one to realize the game and the most probable solution!

[@mellyray3017]

I am an 80’s baby and was born & raised in New York City. Sometimes, I’ll tell new residents that NYC may seem crime-ridden and crazy now. But it was absolutely worse back in the early 90s, 80s, 70s and before. My earliest memories just happened to be some of my worst ones: at the age of two, hiding in the bathtub w/ my brother bc there was a shootout outside. And at 3 years old, seeing my first dead body. My neighbor was killed by her husband. She fled their apartment and died in front of their building. NYC could be better? Yes, absolutely. But I wouldn’t compare it to those decades. Absolutely not.

Like you know the rest of the hostages were thinking like “she’s gonna call as soon as she gets to a phone so they’ll be here any minute”

[@Lily-wp8ol]

Young man, I stumbled upon your channel. Your voice, intelligent, respectful presentation of facts immediately caught my attention. A grisly story told with compassion for the victims--well done. I shall watch you with interest.

[@lindarosado6913]

I could never get over your story telling. It just adds onto the sadness the way you narrate. Then the music you add and the clips? Wow. Your videos always make me feel something, like I want to cry. Great job.

So many sick stories like this in NYC. I love this channel. Im from Harlem. Heard my fair share of mess but these other boroughs are wild

[@donprescavage8107]

I was born in 1969 in woodhaven new york.right on jamaica ave,the streets were mean and completely unlawful. I grew uo learning to fight since i was 3 years old. As a teenager i ran with a rough crowd.almost all of that crew is dead When i turned 21 i left and moved to connecticut.that decision saved my life. Good job on the story.

[@christinamartinez8132]

Twenty five years to life for what this monster did to these victims? Wow, that's ridiculous! What did Dingle die of in prison?

[@DirtySanchez943]

Aids.

[@diamondonpurpose9145]

I wish Herbie would have just let that drunkard leave and just banned him. This event was tragic and unnecessary. My condolences to everyone involved.

[@chrissystewart6268]

I'm an 90s kid this is my first time hearing this story. Its 💔 to hear this God bless Herbie may he rest easy🤎🙏🏾 Great job telling the story may peace be with you

[@aniyas_wayy]

The way you tell stories is amazing. I hate listening to murder stories now but for some reason I can sit at work and listen to yours. It’s like I can picture the scenario smh. These killers are so sick in the head. The whole story is just so devastating and tragic.

[@rosemarycox6963]

I really enjoy the historical background that you provide for each case that you cover. It really helps us to visualise, and get a real feel of what life was like living in those times.

[@Melissa_Renee88]

Wow just wow. Thank you for telling this story. Prayers to the families 💜

[@jonsmith848]

Great Narration...on the edge of my seat...couch Actually..🛋💻

[@EvilIntentions]

Haha thank you!!

[@theresamurphy6554]

Idk about y'all but I gotta have a cup of coffee when watching evil intentions and it's about to be autumn too , channel gives me that vibe

[@EvilIntentions]

Appreciate your support! Thank you!

[@vahgeuvje10]

That first responding officer redeemed himself in remarkable fashion. As an officer, Never ever leave your gun behind.

[@samanthacrump1976]

Why did he have to redeem himself?😂😂

[@sharrielee911]

My condolences to the family on their lost 😢 rest in paradise to Herbie Cummings🙏🏽😇🙏🏽🌹🌹🌹

[@WORDCHARMER77]

New sub and found this channel by accident (recognized you from the music industry 😊). It’s now one of my top 3 true crime channels. I appreciate the way you present each event. As a Native New Yorker I also appreciate the footage from the 70s. Curious as to how you pick each one.

[@EvilIntentions]

Haha that's dope! Honestly, for me I normally have some videos already written or done.for a while and I try to choose based off how the audience is feeling. I know how heavy the child abuse cases can be so I try to give viewers a break between those. For the last year I've covered mostly cases I remembered from way back. Thank you for the kind words! Glad your enjoying the channel!

[@cabooseabs6864]

Cant believe ive never heard of this case. The headline sounds vaguely familiar but the story was completely new to me. You did a good job at being respectful and recognizing this happened to real people.

[@ramonperales7592]

My favorite Narrator always Have Good Stories love Your Voice

[@LaReginaPatrizia]

You are truly one of the best on KZbin.

[@EvilIntentions]

Thanks so much! Truly appreciate that!

[@gj936]

Thank you for your compassion towards the families of the victims that you feature on your channel. I really like the way you tell these stories. The way that you make us connect to the victims and their families, I usually end up a bit teary-eyed after listening. Don’t stop giving the spotlight to these people and their stories!

[@gloriaross4265]

My Condolences to the family, this was a crazy story you did an amazing job telling it I’m still trying to process in my mind how this man did all this in this time span just bananas sheesh!!!

[@DirtySanchez943]

He was stoned out of his gourd!!!

[@AS-xj2rs]

Another eye opening video. Thank you. I’m not from New York but the way you tell these stories & the clips you use really help tell these stories that need to be told. I really enjoy the movie clips you’ve been adding to your videos so thanks for including the names & although it never bothered me I appreciate & respect your choice to start blurring out the faces of the interviews. Shows you just are as respectable as the way you speak and share these stories. Thank you for all the hard work. So glad I subscribed. I wish it wasn’t under such sad stories but these need to be told because these things keep happening unfortunately. Lets keep talking about it until the senseless violence and abuse stops. To everyone reading if you see something please say something. Stay safe and blessed everyone

[@jessicabethea1537]

Wow I'm from Queens and I'm 40 yes old and yes Queens was very different back then

[@sam041390]

I'm glad that he is rotting down under where he belongs... God rest Herbie's soul and my condolences to his family and friends.

[@vg2588]

I really love how well constructed all of your videos are. With Showing actual footage, the introduction ,the narrating ,editing, everything in your videos ,shows your passionate about delivering these stories. You deserve an opportunity for a television spot .These Videos are far more interesting than watching repetitive stories with re enactments on crime tv channels and your compassion for the victims is present in all of your work as well .I also love hearing stories about old new york a decade before I was born there .Thank you for bringing these stories to light and the research you do Jose keep up the good work

[@monicajackson5609]

Ok..this man is a creature from up above. The emotional rollercoaster I go on watching his video is CRAZY. He has to be a director of movies or something. I mean from the musiic, his voice, choice of words. Its AMAZING. HE IS THE BEST KZbinR HANDS DOWN.

[@joshingram071]

Damn, watching this channel lets me know that NYC between the 70's & 90's were a wild & evil place. Being from NJ I had no idea how many of these stories existed

[@dubreil07]

It was an evil place. The ppl saying nyc is crazy now are stupid

[@aj_hernandez2187]

Gracias por hacer todos estos videos con dignidad y respeto ❗️❗️❗️Saludos desde BOSTON 🎉

[@SmileyAdventures]

I’m from Boston too! ❤ Much love!

[@jimhurlbut3649]

What a truly bizarre tale of unbridled horror. Very well-done, too. Subscribed.

[@lumiesgotcha]

Wow. Thanks for sharing this story. Ive never heatd of it before

[@ItsMrstoyouboo]

The cop got lucky as hell. How you forget your gun homie?! Tf???!!

[@GeorgeOrwell1984NWO]

Amazing narration and putting this unknown story shedding light on a jaw dropping story from the depths of the crime ridden NYC of that era!! Looking forward to more interesting content like this on your channel Sir!!

[@SimonXRitchey]

This is the first video I’ve seen from you, I’m only half way thru but already super impressed!! I loved how you set the scene by telling the story of LES in the 70s/80s and the punk rock/hardcore scene that was taking place then. The 100% accuracy in that information let’s me know that you definitely report the facts and present them in a entertaining and captivating way. Keep up the good work brother!

[@Ektalon]

It’s been a long time since I’ve thought of that headline, and the first time I learned about the details. Thanks man!

[@ThisIsMissCris]

Wow what an unbelievable case! I was utterly dumbfounded at the fact that this animal actually forced that poor woman to cut her boss's head off. That's insane! I can't even imagine the horror..
