In 2007, archaeologists discovered the 2,200-year-old remains of a man with a deformed knee attached to a prosthetic leg tipped with a horse hoof, in a tomb in Turpan, China. They uncovered that the man’s leg was extremely deformed with the patella, femur, and tibia fused together at an 80 degrees angle with the prosthetic leg attached. Wear indicated that the prosthetic had been used for a prolonged period.

Junko Murder of Junko Furuta is one the most horrific murders I've ever researched, and that is saying a lot. Junko had just celebrated her 17th birthday 3 days before she was kidnapped; this young lady was tortured for more than a month before she finally succumbed.
On November 25th of 1988, Junko was kidnapped after leaving school by 4 teenaged boys; the group took their victim to a home one of them shared with his parents; in the beginning the parents were told that Junko was one of their girlfriends, but that lie didn't last long. The group soon dropped the act, and one of the boys told the adults that he was a member of the Yakuza; if they said anything or tried to help the victim, they would be killed, too. Soon after the kidnapping Junko was forced to call her parents and tell them she had run away, then the torture began. What they did to this poor girl is unimaginable. If you're easily upset or the queasy type you may want to skip the rest of this post.
The teenagers raped Junko over and over again, between 400-500 times; the sexual assaults weren't only by these 4, up to 100 men took part in the rape and torture of this sweet and innocent young girl. Junko was beaten with weights and golf clubs, they even hung her from the ceiling and used her as a punching bag. They smashed Junko's hands, forced her to drink her own urine and eat cockroaches, and forced her to sleep outside in the dead of winter. The young men dripped hot wax on her face, they burnt her eyelids with a lighter, and stabbed her repeatedly in the chest with needles. Junko was starved, weights were dropped onto her belly, and she was often kept inside a freezer.
Junko tried more than once to get help; she begged her captor's parents to help her and they refused. She also tried to contact police- for these acts she was severely punished, with burning cigarettes and lighters.
As awful as all this was, the sexual torture must've been the worst. Not only did they rape her, the young monsters shoved a hot lightbulb inside her and pushed on her stomach until it burst. Other things placed inside both of her private orifices included lit cigarettes, glass bottles, piping hot grilled chicken, scissors, an iron bar, needles, and skewers. They even lit off firecrackers from her anal cavity, burnt all of her nether regions with a lighter, and ripped one of the poor girl's nipples off with pliers.
The 17 year old endured this torture for 44 days; I mean, can you imagine? Halfway through the ordeal Junko was begging the men to kill her, and finally they did; on January 4th, 1989, they poured lighter fluid on Junko and set her on fire. Afterwords they stuffed this precious young girl inside a 55 gallon drum, filled it with cement, and took it to a remote area in Koto, Tokyo.
When these 4 bastards were finally brought to justice, they were tried as adults but instead of bring charged with torture and murdering this poor girl, the charges were reduced to committing bodily injury that resulted in death. The most time any of these monsters served was 8 years; today each of them are free.
Though their identities were hidden because they were underage when this horrific torture murder took place, today we know exactly who they are. These are the names they went by before the murders, and the aliases they are reported to be using today:
Supposed ringleader Jō Ogura AKA Jō Kamisaku, Hiroshi Miyano AKA Hiroshi Yokoyama, Shinji Minato AKA Nobuharu Minato, and Yasushi Watanabe.
When Adrianne Reynolds was 16-years-old, she left her hometown of Kilgore, Texas, to live with her father and his wife in East Moline, Illinois. Once there, she enrolled in Black Hawk College Outreach Center. She dreamed of earning her GED and joining the marines. Another dream of hers was to become a car designer or a singer; he had a phenomenal voice. It was here that she met Sarah Kolb and Cory Gregory, both self-proclaimed juggalos.
Just a couple of months after joining the school, Adrianne asked Cory on a date. Despite the fact that Sarah had a boyfriend, Sean, this infuriated her. Cory was her friend and she didn’t want Adrienne “stealing” him. On the afternoon of 21 January, 2005, Sarah invited Adrienne to Taco Bell with her and Cory. At some point on the drive over, Adrienne and Sarah got into an altercation. As the rolled up to Taco Bell, Cory held Adrianne down while while Sarah beat her with a wooden handle that she kept in her car for protection and strangled her to death with her belt.
Following the murder, Sarah and Cory took her lifeless body to Sarah’s grandparents’ farm. Here, they attempted to set her on fire in the hopes that she would turn to ashes. When this failed, they contacted 16-year-old Nathan Gaudet and told him about their predicament. Nathan drove over to the farm, armed with a handsaw to dismember Adrianne before disposing of her remains in a manhole. A couple of days later, she was found and it wouldn’t be long until Cory’s conscience got the better of him and he confessed.
Both Sarah and Cory were found guilty of first-degree murder. During testimony at trial, it was claimed that Sarah had a crush on Adrianne and acted out due to jealousy. Sarah received 53 years in prison while Cory received 40. During her trial, Sarah announced that she felt no guilt. Nathan was found guilty of concealment of a body and served 4 years in a juvenile centre. 4 years later, he died in a car crash.
In July 2010, the teenage daughter of Michele Kalina made a horrifying discovery in her mother’s closet. It was the remains of five babies. Over the course of 14 years, Kalina gave birth to at least five children, killing them just after birth. These doomed children were all conceived through an extramarital affair. Her husband, who was completely oblivious, had believed that Kalina had a cyst on her fallopian tubes which gave her the appearance of being pregnant. She was found guilty and sentenced to 20 to 40 years in prison.

6 Reasons Why Smart People Cant Find Happiness
Happiness is the feeling of contentment and satisfaction that is craved by many but only achieved by some. Happiness is relative and subjective. But for many successful individuals, the presence of a great family life and a flourishing career is often not enough. On some occasions these do not prevent an smart individual from feeling a sense of loneliness, often sadness and melancholy.
Here are six psychological reasons why smart people have a harder time finding happiness.
1. Intelligent people over-analyze
Many individuals with high levels of intelligence often over think and analyze everything that occurs in their life and surroundings. While their ability to analyze things is a great asset, the constant analysis of everything often lead to frustrations especially when coming up with an undesired conclusion.
Being able to see through people’s intentions is a burden that most people don’t get to carry. Oftentimes, knowing how ugly the real world is like is……

In 2012, Sheboygan Falls in Sheboygan City, Wisconsin, was shocked by the brutal murder of 78-year-old great grandmother, Barbara Olson, who was hacked and bludgeoned to death with a hatchet and hammer.

Suzanne Capper was a 16-year-old girl from Greater Manchester, England. Those who knew her said that all she wanted in her life was to be loved; she didn’t know her real father and she lived with her stepfather, John, after he split up from her mother, Elizabeth. She soon started to play truant from school and drifted from house to house, trying to find affection from anybody.
She soon started to hang out at the house of Jean Powell, 26, who she had babysat for when she was 10-years-old. The house at 97 Langworthy Road was a hot spot for drug dealing, parties and sex. “I tried to stop Suzanne going there but she had a very strong will,” said John. Moreover, John didn’t know the extent of what was going on behind closed doors; he just had a strange feeling about Jean and those who frequented her home. It was here in this house that Suzanne fell in with the wrong crowd. Glyn Powell, 29, was Jean’s ex-husband who had convictions for burglary, theft, and being drunk and disorderly. Bernadette McNeilly, 24, was a drug addicted mother of three. Anthony Dudson, 17, was Jean’s on-again-off-again boyfriend. Jeffrey Leigh, 26, had convictions for robbing his 86-year-old disabled aunt. Clifford Pook, 18, was Jean’s brother and Suzanne’s ex boyfriend.
Enraged by either the supposed theft of a duffel coat or the supposed pubic lice that Suzanne spread around, the group decided they had had enough of the teenager. On the 7th of December, 1992, they lured her to the dingy home. Once inside, she was held down while Glyn shaved her head and eyebrows, and pubic area. Afterwards, he placed a plastic bag over her head and walked around her while hitting her on the head. Laughing and shouting, the gang took turns hitting her with belt buckles and large ornamental wooden spoons. The beating was so severe that one of Suzanne’s arms would hang useless by her side for the rest of her imprisonment. Following the beating, Suzanne was locked in a cupboard.
Out of fear Suzanne’s cries and screams were disturbing Jean and Bernadette’s children, the gang moved her to Bernadette’s abandoned home nearby. Here, Suzanne was shackled spread eagle to a bed with chains and ropes. In the dark, she lay waiting for the next beating. Over the next five days, she endured horrendous torture. Her two front teeth were pulled out and another was snapped in half, leaving the nerve exposed. She was injected with amphetamines and burned with cigarettes. She was placed in a bath with concentrated disinfectant and scrubbed until her skin came off. Through all of the torture and abuse, Suzanne was subjected to a tape of Chucky repeating: “I’m Chucky, wanna play?” through headphones.
In the early morning hours of the 14th of December, 1992, Suzanne was forced into the boot of a car the gang has stolen. They drove her to remote woodland near Stockport. She was forced out of the car and shoved down an embankment. Bernadette poured petrol over the terrified teenage and they set her alight. “She went straight up in flames and was screaming,” said Jean. The gang presumed she was dead and left the scene laughing. However, Suzanne wasn’t dead. Somehow she had managed to survive the brutal attack. She scrambled up the embankment and was found by a man on his way to work. Unfortunately, Suzanne died four days later in hospital but not before she named everybody involved.
Jean Powell, Bernadette McNeilly and Glyn Powell were sentenced to life imprisonment. Jeffrey Leigh was sentenced to 12 years. Anthony Dudson was detained indefinitely with a minimum tariff of 18 years. Clifford Pook was sentenced to 15 years. Bernadette McNeilly, Jeffrey Leigh and Clifford Pook have all since been released.
My adventure buddy 🐶❤️
14-year-old John Hron had no time for bullies or racists. The teenager from Sweden went to school with several people that would fall into those categories. He was a keen canoeist and enjoyed playing the guitar.
On the afternoon of the 17th of August, 1995, John and his friend, Christian, were camping by Ingetorpssjon lake near Kode, Sweden. Shortly after they set up camp, four neo-nazis approached their tent. Ranging from 15-years-old to 18-years-old, John recognised one of the reprobates. It was Mikael Fjalljholm, a ruthless bully in his school. John and Mikael had bashed heads beforehand. John was horrified by his racist and cruel behaviour and was known to stand up to him when pushed. But now, Mikael had three friends with him, Daniel Hanson, John Billing and BM, as he was only referred to in the media.
They approached the tent and started to senselessly beat John. They told him to say that he “loves nazism” to which he staunchly refused and received another beating. They kicked and punched him in the head and smashed beer bottles over his head. The sadistic group would beat him for hours and every now and then, would pretend to be apologetic and offer him a drink before starting the attack again. It was a cat and mouse type attack. They burnt him in the fire and burnt his neck with a piece of burning wood.
At some point during the attack, John managed to break free and jump into the lake. However, the group started hollering that they would murder Christian if he did not return. Barely clinging to life, he swam back and the torture continued. When John fell unconscious, they threw him into the lake where he drowned. Christian hitched a ride back home and called police and named John’s killers. When his body was retrieved, it was said that his injuries matched those to somebody who had been hit by a train.
If the grim murder of John wasn’t shocking enough, his killers all received lenient sentences. Daniel was released after just six years while Mikael was sentenced to five years in institutional youth care. The other two received just a few months in prison. John posthumously received the inaugural Stig Dagerman Prize for free speech and world peace.

The Cheshire Murders
Jennifer Hawke-Petit was a nurse and co-director at the health centre in Cheshire Academy, a private boarding school in Connecticut. Her husband, William Petit was an endocrinologist. The duo went on to have two daughters - 17-year-old Hayley and 11-year-old Michaela. Hayley had an innate curiosity and desired to become a doctor like her father. She knew more about football at 10-years-old than most adult fans. Michaela had a fascination with Food Network was just beginning to become an avid cook, often cooking up meals for her family. Unfortunately, neither girls got to reach their full potential.
On the 22nd of July, 2007, Joshua Komisarjevsky was at a Stop & Shop in Cheshire. It was here that he spotted Jennifer and Michaela and decided to follow them home. Joshua decided that he and his friend, Steven Hayes, would rob the house that night. He also found Michaela attractive, he later confessed. A couple of hours later, during a text conversation between the two, Joshua stated he “chomping at the bit to get started, need a margarita soon,” to which Steven replied “I’m putting the kid to her hold your horses.”
At approximately 2AM, they broke in to the Petit household where they found William asleep downstairs. Joshua cracked him over the head several times with a baseball bat and tied him up in the basement. The two men went upstairs and tied Jennifer, Hayley, and Michaela to their beds. Unsatisfied with the lack of money in the house, they decided to drive Jennifer to a local bank when it opened that morning to lift out $15,000. When Steven and Jennifer went to the bank to withdraw the money, Joshua took explicit photographs of Michaela and sent them to Steven to show Jennifer in case she decided not to comply. While at the bank, Jennifer alerted the bank teller to her situation, adding that she believed they would leave once they got the money. As Jennifer left the bank, the bank teller called 911.
Shortly after they returned to the house, police started to outside. They were assessing the situation and setting up a vehicle perimeter. In fact, a police cruiser was just a mile away from the Petit home minutes after the 911 call was made. He easily could have intercepted Steven as he drove back to the house with Jennifer. Unbeknownst to police sitting outside figuring out what to do, unimaginable violence was about to unfold inside the house. Joshua raped Michaela and Steven raped Jennifer. Afterwords, they noticed William had escaped. Steven then strangled Jennifer to death with his bare hands while her two daughters were tied to their beds with pillowcases placed over their heads. The sadistic pair then doused the house and the girls in petrol and set it alight. As police sat outside, the two girls died in the blaze.
Jennifer, Hayley, and Michaela all died that night. Hayley managed to free herself from the binds on her bed but she perished at the top of the staircase. Miraculously, William survived. He said he got a dose of adrenaline when he heard one of the perpetrators upstairs state: “Don’t worry, it’s going to be all over in a couple of minutes.” When he escaped the basement, he wasn’t aware that police were surrounding his house. He ran to his neighbour’s house pleading for help. He had been so brutally beaten that his neighbour didn’t even recognise him. Steven and Joshua were apprehended after a police chase.
The viciousness of the murders upended notions of suburban security. Both Steven and Joshua were sentenced to death. This sentence was later commuted to life imprisonment.

The Cannibal House — This is the house of Armin Meiwes, a notorious German cannibal. In 2001 at the age of 39, Meiwes searched for a volunteer to be “slaughtered and consumed” on a website called The Cannibal Café. Bernd Brandes, a 43-year-old from Berlin, responded to the advertisement. The two met on March 9th, 2001, in Meiwes’ house in a small farming village near Rotenburg, Germany. After Brandes consumed sleeping pills and alcohol, Meiwes amputated Brandes’ penis with a knife. They attempted to eat the penis which was fried with spices and wine; however, this plan failed as it was too burned. Just after, Meiwes poured Brandes a bath (in the bathtub featured above), where he lay bleeding for three hours. Eventually, Brandes was dragged upstairs to the slaughter room where he was killed after Meiwes slit his throat. The body was hung on meat hooks and was later hacked into pieces. This entire gruesome ordeal was filmed on a two-hour long videotape.
Over the next 10 months, Meiwes consumed approximately 20 kgs (44 lbs) of Brandes’ flesh and stored body parts in his freezer. Eventually, Meiwes longed for another victim, and placed more advertisements on the internet. In December 2002, police arrested Meiwes in his home after receiving a phone call from a man who was concerned by the new ads. Meiwes was convicted of manslaughter in January 2004, and was sentenced to eight years in prison, as it was ruled that Brandes was a voluntary participant in the killing. In May 2006, this sentence was revised to life imprisonment for murder due to a retrial. Meiwes conducted several interviews in prison, and has stated that he believes there to be approximately 800 cannibals in Germany. He has since become a vegetarian and is reportedly feeling sorry for his crimes.
Furious after being refused entry into the Stockholm night club Sturecompagniet on December 4, 1994, Tommy Zethraeus and accomplice Guillermo Marquez returned hours later with an assault rifle and fired into a crowd gathered at the door. He killed the bouncer who rejected them, 3 female club-goers and wounded 20. They were arrested after a 3 day manhunt and were convicted, with Marquez receiving 4 years and Zethraeus sentenced to life. It was later reduced, making him eligible for conditional parole in 2016, which was denied.
