17
00:01:51.480 --> 00:01:55.200
<v Speaker 1>Kill Part three. Today, for the month of October, we

18
00:01:55.239 --> 00:01:59.159
<v Speaker 1>are going to be kicking at old school with some

19
00:01:59.560 --> 00:02:05.519
<v Speaker 1>of the crowd favorites, the throwback best Halloween episodes of

20
00:02:05.560 --> 00:02:06.959
<v Speaker 1>the Cosmic Peach podcast.

21
00:02:07.040 --> 00:02:10.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm super excited for it. But that's not why you're

22
00:02:10.280 --> 00:02:10.840
<v Speaker 2>here today.

23
00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:15.879
<v Speaker 1>Today we are discussing Program to Kill Part three, Diving

24
00:02:16.120 --> 00:02:24.159
<v Speaker 1>deeper down the rabbit hole, as they say, and we're

25
00:02:24.240 --> 00:02:26.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna be talking about some really dense information in this one.

26
00:02:26.919 --> 00:02:29.439
<v Speaker 1>So if you need to crack open a beer, you

27
00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:32.800
<v Speaker 1>need to go take a puff. Go ahead and do that.

28
00:02:32.960 --> 00:02:34.000
<v Speaker 2>I'll give you a second.

29
00:02:34.039 --> 00:02:38.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna take a sip of this, Sam Adams Octoberfest.

30
00:02:39.479 --> 00:02:42.080
<v Speaker 1>I told my brother in law to go get me

31
00:02:42.159 --> 00:02:46.520
<v Speaker 1>some fall beer. My bad for not specifying that there

32
00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:49.879
<v Speaker 1>are other fall beers besides Octoberfest. I mean, like, why

33
00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:52.520
<v Speaker 1>can't everybody just know what I want and just do that?

34
00:02:53.039 --> 00:02:57.120
<v Speaker 1>But anyways, it's not the worst fall beer. I guess

35
00:02:57.960 --> 00:03:01.639
<v Speaker 1>five point three percent alcohol. Hopefully this gets me turned

36
00:03:01.759 --> 00:03:06.319
<v Speaker 1>enough to get through the episode. I mean, it's sorry,

37
00:03:06.639 --> 00:03:11.800
<v Speaker 1>you know it's sorry. And I'm also drinking crystal Light

38
00:03:11.919 --> 00:03:15.560
<v Speaker 1>because I have this thing where I feel like there

39
00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:18.439
<v Speaker 1>needs to be a balance, So if I'm drinking, I

40
00:03:18.520 --> 00:03:22.360
<v Speaker 1>will also pound water or crystal light or some shit

41
00:03:22.479 --> 00:03:25.520
<v Speaker 1>like that, because those two things cancel each other out right.

42
00:03:25.639 --> 00:03:30.680
<v Speaker 1>But october Fest is all right. I'm gonna give it

43
00:03:34.840 --> 00:03:40.879
<v Speaker 1>four out of ten pumpkins. I really like the lining

44
00:03:40.960 --> 00:03:49.159
<v Speaker 1>Google's Harvest Patch Shandy, and I also really like do

45
00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:54.520
<v Speaker 1>Saki's Amber during the Fall. But you know, beggars can't

46
00:03:54.520 --> 00:04:01.319
<v Speaker 1>be choosers. I'm still drinking it now what I usually do.

47
00:04:01.960 --> 00:04:04.439
<v Speaker 2>I want to open us up with a little quote here,

48
00:04:05.280 --> 00:04:09.000
<v Speaker 2>and the quote of the day comes from mister Henry

49
00:04:09.240 --> 00:04:13.159
<v Speaker 2>Lee Foxtick himself. Quote.

50
00:04:13.719 --> 00:04:16.480
<v Speaker 1>No one wants to believe the cult story. The TV

51
00:04:16.639 --> 00:04:19.800
<v Speaker 1>people cut it out, the writers don't write about it.

52
00:04:19.959 --> 00:04:22.680
<v Speaker 2>End quote. And so what.

53
00:04:22.759 --> 00:04:28.759
<v Speaker 1>He's referring to is that, uh, nobody brings up the

54
00:04:28.800 --> 00:04:30.600
<v Speaker 1>fact that he said he was part of this hand

55
00:04:30.600 --> 00:04:34.839
<v Speaker 1>to death cult. Everyone just wants to say that he

56
00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:37.360
<v Speaker 1>was a fucking nut job that went and did all

57
00:04:37.399 --> 00:04:39.680
<v Speaker 1>this shit and it was just random acts of violence.

58
00:04:39.720 --> 00:04:44.360
<v Speaker 1>Nobody talks about the cult story. So for me, one

59
00:04:44.439 --> 00:04:47.680
<v Speaker 1>of the more compelling aspects of Henry's story was his

60
00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:52.079
<v Speaker 1>statements that he had ties to fucking cult run ranches

61
00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:56.879
<v Speaker 1>just south of the US border. And literally, in nineteen

62
00:04:56.920 --> 00:05:02.800
<v Speaker 1>eighty nine, just such a ranch was excavated in Meta Morros, Mexico,

63
00:05:03.519 --> 00:05:08.279
<v Speaker 1>just south of Brownsville, Texas. What did they find, Well,

64
00:05:08.560 --> 00:05:15.480
<v Speaker 1>they found the remains of fifteen ritual sacrifice victims. The

65
00:05:15.519 --> 00:05:20.199
<v Speaker 1>Meta Moros case so closely paralleled the stories told years

66
00:05:20.240 --> 00:05:26.000
<v Speaker 1>earlier by Henry Lee Lucas, and they so closely paralleled

67
00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:29.519
<v Speaker 1>that some law enforcement personnel in Texas chose to take

68
00:05:29.600 --> 00:05:34.319
<v Speaker 1>a closer look at Henry Lee Lucas professed cult connections,

69
00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:40.560
<v Speaker 1>and the Sheriff of Williamson County, Texas, Jim Boutwell, later

70
00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:44.519
<v Speaker 1>told a reporter that investigators had verified that Lucas was

71
00:05:44.639 --> 00:05:47.279
<v Speaker 1>indeed involved in fucking cult activities.

72
00:05:47.800 --> 00:05:51.079
<v Speaker 2>But why does that never make it into the Netflix documentaries?

73
00:05:53.120 --> 00:05:53.319
<v Speaker 3>You know?

74
00:05:54.199 --> 00:06:01.600
<v Speaker 1>And following the discovery in Metamorro's, Henry's spiritual advisor, Clemmy Shrouder,

75
00:06:02.439 --> 00:06:06.720
<v Speaker 1>sent the state Attorney general a map Henry Lee Lucas

76
00:06:06.759 --> 00:06:10.360
<v Speaker 1>had drawn for her in nineteen eighty five that identified

77
00:06:10.439 --> 00:06:15.600
<v Speaker 1>locations where murder, kidnapping, and drug running operations were conducted.

78
00:06:16.319 --> 00:06:20.680
<v Speaker 1>She told a reporter for the Brownsville Herald this quote,

79
00:06:21.040 --> 00:06:23.519
<v Speaker 1>Henry told me there were a lot of different cults

80
00:06:23.560 --> 00:06:27.519
<v Speaker 1>in Mexico who were involved in Satanic worship and everything.

81
00:06:27.959 --> 00:06:30.519
<v Speaker 1>I found the map and realized he had marked this

82
00:06:30.680 --> 00:06:35.560
<v Speaker 1>cult and drug ring near Brownsville end quote. And what

83
00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:40.199
<v Speaker 1>did the Attorney General do with that info? While the

84
00:06:40.240 --> 00:06:45.920
<v Speaker 1>Attorney General's office chose not to take any action, of course, right,

85
00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:51.639
<v Speaker 1>why should they? U? And actually, in an interview conducted

86
00:06:51.759 --> 00:06:57.399
<v Speaker 1>following the exposure of the Metamorros cult Otis, Toole claimed

87
00:06:57.639 --> 00:07:01.040
<v Speaker 1>that it was not the specific ring with which he

88
00:07:01.120 --> 00:07:04.959
<v Speaker 1>and Henry were associated, but he also emphasized that there

89
00:07:05.040 --> 00:07:10.519
<v Speaker 1>were many such interconnected operations along the Texas Mexico border,

90
00:07:11.439 --> 00:07:15.839
<v Speaker 1>and even though it was downplayed in most pressed reports,

91
00:07:16.399 --> 00:07:21.680
<v Speaker 1>the Metamoros Cult was largely an American entity, something they

92
00:07:21.720 --> 00:07:27.439
<v Speaker 1>didn't want anyone finding out about. Obviously, its leader is

93
00:07:27.439 --> 00:07:31.560
<v Speaker 1>a fuckstick I've come across in my research before, but

94
00:07:31.839 --> 00:07:35.680
<v Speaker 1>definitely worth the deep dive. If you remember, from long

95
00:07:35.800 --> 00:07:39.240
<v Speaker 1>long long ago in the Cosmic Peach past, I brought

96
00:07:39.319 --> 00:07:43.879
<v Speaker 1>up a fox stick by the name of a Dolfo Constanzo.

97
00:07:45.079 --> 00:07:48.720
<v Speaker 1>I spoke about him in my sixties Serial Killers episode.

98
00:07:48.800 --> 00:07:52.920
<v Speaker 1>But anyways, we're gonna dive back into that. He was

99
00:07:52.920 --> 00:07:56.720
<v Speaker 1>a Cuban American born in Miami, Florida and raised in

100
00:07:56.839 --> 00:08:02.680
<v Speaker 1>Miami and San Juan, Puerto Rica, and the colt's high

101
00:08:02.680 --> 00:08:08.959
<v Speaker 1>priestess was a lady named Sarah Aldrete, an honor student

102
00:08:09.160 --> 00:08:14.439
<v Speaker 1>at Southmost Texas College in Brownsville. One of the Colt's

103
00:08:14.519 --> 00:08:20.759
<v Speaker 1>top lieutenants, Sarafin Hernandez Garcia, also lived in Brownsville and

104
00:08:20.839 --> 00:08:26.399
<v Speaker 1>attended Southmost as a law enforcement major, wouldn't you know?

105
00:08:27.759 --> 00:08:33.440
<v Speaker 1>And Sarafin's grandfather was the owner of Rancho Santa Elena,

106
00:08:33.960 --> 00:08:37.320
<v Speaker 1>where the cult performed its ritual sacrifices and buried many

107
00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:43.039
<v Speaker 1>of its fucking victims. Another cult member, drug baron Ilio

108
00:08:43.399 --> 00:08:49.679
<v Speaker 1>Hernandez Riviera, also hailed from Brownsville. Yet another cult member

109
00:08:49.840 --> 00:08:56.399
<v Speaker 1>lived in West Alco, Texas. So we see that it

110
00:08:56.480 --> 00:08:59.639
<v Speaker 1>may have been located in Mexico, but we got a

111
00:08:59.679 --> 00:09:06.039
<v Speaker 1>lot of Texas motherfucker's up in there. And Constanzo, the

112
00:09:06.080 --> 00:09:12.000
<v Speaker 1>cult leader, had been described by chronicler Clifford Linedecker as

113
00:09:12.159 --> 00:09:19.039
<v Speaker 1>a quote thoroughly ruthless and malevolent genius with a messianic

114
00:09:19.159 --> 00:09:23.720
<v Speaker 1>ability to command the loyalty and blind obedience of followers

115
00:09:23.759 --> 00:09:28.679
<v Speaker 1>who joined him, zombie like in a loathsome blood feast

116
00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:33.559
<v Speaker 1>of dope, dealing terror, torture, and human sacrifice end quote.

117
00:09:34.080 --> 00:09:36.759
<v Speaker 1>A description that sounds as though it were written with

118
00:09:36.919 --> 00:09:42.480
<v Speaker 1>Charles Manson in mind. But let's take a closer look

119
00:09:43.159 --> 00:09:48.679
<v Speaker 1>at Adolpho Constanzo. He was born November one, nineteen sixty two,

120
00:09:49.120 --> 00:09:54.440
<v Speaker 1>to a fifteen year old Cuban immigrant likely an underage prostitute.

121
00:09:55.080 --> 00:10:00.200
<v Speaker 1>Constanzo was then blessed by a Pallo Myomba high priest

122
00:10:00.519 --> 00:10:04.679
<v Speaker 1>at the age of six months and declared the chosen One.

123
00:10:05.639 --> 00:10:08.879
<v Speaker 1>Until the age of ten. He was trained by Satanists

124
00:10:08.879 --> 00:10:12.240
<v Speaker 1>in San Juan and Haiti before returning to Miami in

125
00:10:12.360 --> 00:10:18.279
<v Speaker 1>nineteen seventy two. Back in Florida, Constonso was mentored by

126
00:10:18.440 --> 00:10:22.159
<v Speaker 1>another Satanic high priest, who taught him, among other things,

127
00:10:22.600 --> 00:10:24.919
<v Speaker 1>the art of grave robbing.

128
00:10:25.240 --> 00:10:27.759
<v Speaker 2>Just like otis toole but so.

129
00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:34.320
<v Speaker 1>Constanzo's mother meanwhile busied herself with being arrested some thirty

130
00:10:34.399 --> 00:10:38.600
<v Speaker 1>fucking times, but the charges never seemed to stick and

131
00:10:38.639 --> 00:10:43.720
<v Speaker 1>she always escaped with probation and Dade County neighbors considered

132
00:10:43.799 --> 00:10:48.519
<v Speaker 1>Constanzo's mother to be a witch or a sorceress, and

133
00:10:48.759 --> 00:10:52.840
<v Speaker 1>authorities once found her living in a vacant, dilapidated apartment

134
00:10:52.919 --> 00:10:58.639
<v Speaker 1>that was heavily smeared with your favorites blood, human shit,

135
00:10:59.080 --> 00:11:05.879
<v Speaker 1>and urine cozy now. Eventually she was charged with trespassing

136
00:11:06.039 --> 00:11:10.559
<v Speaker 1>and child neglect, and by mid nineteen eighty four, Adolfo

137
00:11:10.840 --> 00:11:15.519
<v Speaker 1>had moved to Mexico City, where he served as something

138
00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:21.120
<v Speaker 1>of a psychic to the stars, earning extravagant fees and

139
00:11:21.639 --> 00:11:27.799
<v Speaker 1>quite lavish living. His extremely neat and orderly home in

140
00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:32.759
<v Speaker 1>a high dollar suburb of Mexico's capital city was located

141
00:11:32.840 --> 00:11:38.240
<v Speaker 1>directly across from an elementary school. Michael Lakino two point

142
00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:42.759
<v Speaker 1>zero I think so, and he was described as having

143
00:11:42.799 --> 00:11:47.120
<v Speaker 1>a magnetic personality. He attracted an array of famous and

144
00:11:47.240 --> 00:11:54.360
<v Speaker 1>colorful people, including entertainment stars, fashion models, transsexual nightclub performers.

145
00:11:54.759 --> 00:11:56.440
<v Speaker 1>Always got to have a couple of those in your

146
00:11:56.480 --> 00:12:03.879
<v Speaker 1>back pocket, politicians, businessmen, crime lord's, police officials, and civil servants.

147
00:12:04.679 --> 00:12:09.919
<v Speaker 1>One of his followers was Irma Serrano, a singer slash

148
00:12:09.960 --> 00:12:15.440
<v Speaker 1>actress and the high profile mistress of a former president

149
00:12:15.559 --> 00:12:23.200
<v Speaker 1>of Mexico. Another admirer was Florentino Ventura, the head of

150
00:12:23.480 --> 00:12:30.480
<v Speaker 1>the Mexican branch of Interpol, and actually Ventura was such

151
00:12:30.559 --> 00:12:36.360
<v Speaker 1>a devoted disciple that he considered himself to be Constanso's godson.

152
00:12:36.840 --> 00:12:42.279
<v Speaker 1>Self appointed, of course, and Ventura allegedly killed himself in

153
00:12:42.320 --> 00:12:46.879
<v Speaker 1>Mexico City on September seventeenth, nineteen eighty eight, after killing

154
00:12:46.919 --> 00:12:52.519
<v Speaker 1>his wife and another woman. Strangely, though, all three were

155
00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:57.679
<v Speaker 1>killed with the same burst of gunfire. Remember the nice

156
00:12:57.720 --> 00:13:01.519
<v Speaker 1>tale I told you about Henry Marshall blowing his own

157
00:13:01.600 --> 00:13:05.399
<v Speaker 1>chest out with a shotgun five times and then poisoning

158
00:13:05.519 --> 00:13:07.159
<v Speaker 1>himself with carbon monoxide.

159
00:13:07.960 --> 00:13:09.679
<v Speaker 2>It's crazy all the way.

160
00:13:09.639 --> 00:13:13.840
<v Speaker 1>Someone can kill themselves these days. Like while it looks

161
00:13:13.879 --> 00:13:15.679
<v Speaker 1>like he was shot in the back one hundred and

162
00:13:15.720 --> 00:13:19.480
<v Speaker 1>twenty seven times with a minigun, his skull is completely

163
00:13:19.519 --> 00:13:22.720
<v Speaker 1>crushed into oblivion, and both of his feet are missing.

164
00:13:23.840 --> 00:13:27.919
<v Speaker 1>God damned epic suicide. Another one for the books, ladies and.

165
00:13:27.919 --> 00:13:32.799
<v Speaker 2>Gentlemen like honestly. But back to the story.

166
00:13:33.279 --> 00:13:39.000
<v Speaker 1>So. The Metamoros cult was first exposed in early April

167
00:13:39.279 --> 00:13:43.080
<v Speaker 1>nineteen eighty nine. Police searching the ranch on April first

168
00:13:43.120 --> 00:13:48.960
<v Speaker 1>discovered drugs and a cult paraphernalia. Returning on April ninth,

169
00:13:49.120 --> 00:13:52.759
<v Speaker 1>authorities arrested four members of the cult, all of whom

170
00:13:52.879 --> 00:13:57.720
<v Speaker 1>were members of the Hernandez drug family. Two days later,

171
00:13:58.039 --> 00:14:04.559
<v Speaker 1>the first bodies were exhumed from Rancho Santa Elena. Some

172
00:14:04.639 --> 00:14:08.559
<v Speaker 1>of the victims guys, had been beheaded, and some of

173
00:14:08.600 --> 00:14:16.360
<v Speaker 1>them had been grotesquely disfigured by machete blows to the head. Brains, hearts, lungs,

174
00:14:16.639 --> 00:14:20.039
<v Speaker 1>and other internal organs had been cut or torn from

175
00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:23.720
<v Speaker 1>many of the bodies, and some of these were found

176
00:14:24.360 --> 00:14:30.360
<v Speaker 1>stewing in cauldrons in a shed at the ranch, like

177
00:14:30.480 --> 00:14:33.879
<v Speaker 1>fucking Texas chainsaw mascer type shit made him into fucking

178
00:14:34.000 --> 00:14:37.039
<v Speaker 1>chili ate him with a piece of corn bread on

179
00:14:37.080 --> 00:14:37.720
<v Speaker 1>the side.

180
00:14:38.000 --> 00:14:41.519
<v Speaker 2>Literally, But wait, there's more.

181
00:14:42.799 --> 00:14:48.519
<v Speaker 1>Spines had been ripped from the decomposing corpses and fashioned

182
00:14:48.799 --> 00:14:51.080
<v Speaker 1>into ceremonial necklaces.

183
00:14:52.159 --> 00:14:53.360
<v Speaker 2>One victim.

184
00:14:54.480 --> 00:15:01.559
<v Speaker 1>Was reportedly boiled alive, another skinned alive. All were mutilated

185
00:15:01.720 --> 00:15:05.279
<v Speaker 1>to varying degrees, and it was all fucking fucked up, okay.

186
00:15:05.919 --> 00:15:10.840
<v Speaker 1>These victims included the owner and secretary of a company

187
00:15:10.879 --> 00:15:14.600
<v Speaker 1>that served as a front for a cocaine processing lab,

188
00:15:15.159 --> 00:15:20.200
<v Speaker 1>an informant for the Federalies and his mistress, two federal

189
00:15:20.279 --> 00:15:26.039
<v Speaker 1>narcotics officers, three former police officers, and the American nephew

190
00:15:26.200 --> 00:15:31.639
<v Speaker 1>of a US customs agent. There were also a number

191
00:15:31.720 --> 00:15:38.360
<v Speaker 1>of law enforcement personnel within the cult, including Salvador Vidal Garcia,

192
00:15:38.600 --> 00:15:42.679
<v Speaker 1>a Mexico City Federal Judicial Police agent who was in

193
00:15:42.799 --> 00:15:45.399
<v Speaker 1>charge of narcotics investigations.

194
00:15:45.879 --> 00:15:46.480
<v Speaker 2>This dude.

195
00:15:46.559 --> 00:15:52.440
<v Speaker 1>Juan Benitez, the commandante of the Federal Judicial Police, claimed

196
00:15:52.519 --> 00:15:57.080
<v Speaker 1>that their quote were another six agents involved, but had

197
00:15:57.159 --> 00:16:04.240
<v Speaker 1>no proof to bring any charges in quote my fucking ass.

198
00:16:04.519 --> 00:16:05.879
<v Speaker 2>And the thing is.

199
00:16:06.080 --> 00:16:09.279
<v Speaker 1>In addition to the victims found out the ranch, the

200
00:16:09.360 --> 00:16:12.600
<v Speaker 1>colt was also said to be responsible for the deaths

201
00:16:12.639 --> 00:16:16.039
<v Speaker 1>of at least seven members of a drug trafficking family

202
00:16:16.240 --> 00:16:19.159
<v Speaker 1>who were killed in a mass slaughter because they had

203
00:16:19.200 --> 00:16:23.559
<v Speaker 1>evidence of police complicity in the drug trade that they

204
00:16:23.639 --> 00:16:29.080
<v Speaker 1>had threatened to expose. And that massacre occurred on of

205
00:16:29.120 --> 00:16:33.480
<v Speaker 1>all days, the highest holiday on the Satanic calendar in

206
00:16:33.600 --> 00:16:42.159
<v Speaker 1>nineteen eighty seven. Now the victims' bodies showed clear signs

207
00:16:42.360 --> 00:16:48.960
<v Speaker 1>of sadistic torture. Fingers toes ears, all had been removed,

208
00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:53.600
<v Speaker 1>the fucking genital sliced off, two brains were missing, and

209
00:16:53.679 --> 00:16:56.200
<v Speaker 1>a portion of a spine had been ripped from one

210
00:16:56.200 --> 00:17:02.679
<v Speaker 1>of the bodies. This ain't no Beganner, This was skilled

211
00:17:02.759 --> 00:17:10.519
<v Speaker 1>debauchery taking place here. And so on April seventeenth, saraf

212
00:17:10.519 --> 00:17:15.200
<v Speaker 1>And Hernandez Riviera, said to be the patriarch of the cult,

213
00:17:16.079 --> 00:17:20.680
<v Speaker 1>was arrested in Houston, Texas. The next day, just two

214
00:17:20.799 --> 00:17:25.319
<v Speaker 1>days shy of Hitler's birthday, a US grand jury issued

215
00:17:25.359 --> 00:17:30.440
<v Speaker 1>indictments for the still at large Constanzo and ten of

216
00:17:30.480 --> 00:17:35.240
<v Speaker 1>his followers on various drug trafficking charges. Three days later,

217
00:17:35.359 --> 00:17:40.240
<v Speaker 1>on April twenty first, Mexican authorities formerly charged the four

218
00:17:40.400 --> 00:17:46.119
<v Speaker 1>captured cultists with multiple counts of murder, kidnapping, and drug trafficking,

219
00:17:47.279 --> 00:17:51.799
<v Speaker 1>And just two days after that, heavily armed Mexican federalies

220
00:17:52.079 --> 00:17:57.799
<v Speaker 1>burned down the death shed at Rancho Santa Elena, destroying

221
00:17:57.880 --> 00:18:03.200
<v Speaker 1>a fucking wealth of value evidence, which makes no fucking

222
00:18:03.559 --> 00:18:04.880
<v Speaker 1>sense at all.

223
00:18:05.319 --> 00:18:08.960
<v Speaker 2>Period in, Constanzo.

224
00:18:08.799 --> 00:18:12.279
<v Speaker 1>And most of his followers remained in hiding as they

225
00:18:12.279 --> 00:18:16.599
<v Speaker 1>were fucking subjects of a massive manhunt. Right But then

226
00:18:16.680 --> 00:18:20.240
<v Speaker 1>on May sixth, police searching for a missing child are

227
00:18:20.279 --> 00:18:24.000
<v Speaker 1>supposedly said to have stumbled upon the apartment hideaway of

228
00:18:24.079 --> 00:18:27.759
<v Speaker 1>Constanzo and four of his followers in Mexico City. Now

229
00:18:27.839 --> 00:18:31.799
<v Speaker 1>get this shit. They say shots were fired from the apartment,

230
00:18:31.839 --> 00:18:36.519
<v Speaker 1>which resulted in nearly two hundred police officers instantaneously surrounding

231
00:18:36.519 --> 00:18:39.799
<v Speaker 1>the building, and then this whole fucking ferocious gun battle

232
00:18:39.880 --> 00:18:44.599
<v Speaker 1>supposedly ensued, with thousands of rounds fired in a forty

233
00:18:44.640 --> 00:18:48.319
<v Speaker 1>five minute exchange. But here's the thing, though, none of

234
00:18:48.359 --> 00:18:51.880
<v Speaker 1>the coltests were shot and only one officer was wounded,

235
00:18:52.400 --> 00:18:55.559
<v Speaker 1>and that was in the initial gunfire that came from

236
00:18:55.559 --> 00:18:59.880
<v Speaker 1>the apartment. So, just like Henry Lee Lucas, these motherfuckers

237
00:19:00.160 --> 00:19:04.720
<v Speaker 1>must be the luckiest people alive. A forty five minute

238
00:19:04.880 --> 00:19:08.839
<v Speaker 1>gun battle Royale, and only one police officer got wounded,

239
00:19:09.920 --> 00:19:13.039
<v Speaker 1>and they didn't say how he was wounded either, Like

240
00:19:13.200 --> 00:19:16.160
<v Speaker 1>was it a flesh wound, did he get trumped in

241
00:19:16.240 --> 00:19:19.079
<v Speaker 1>two hairs from the tip of his fucking ear get grazed?

242
00:19:19.200 --> 00:19:19.440
<v Speaker 1>Or what.

243
00:19:20.880 --> 00:19:22.880
<v Speaker 2>If he got shot in the chest?

244
00:19:23.400 --> 00:19:25.799
<v Speaker 1>They probably would have made a bigger deal about it,

245
00:19:26.000 --> 00:19:29.319
<v Speaker 1>but they didn't, So I mean, the world's a stage,

246
00:19:29.519 --> 00:19:36.839
<v Speaker 1>right anyways, Constanzo and his male lover, yes that's right,

247
00:19:37.279 --> 00:19:42.200
<v Speaker 1>male lover were reportedly executed in a closet on the

248
00:19:42.319 --> 00:19:47.680
<v Speaker 1>orders of the High Priest himself, and the three survivors

249
00:19:47.880 --> 00:19:52.039
<v Speaker 1>were captured alive and charged with a multitude of crimes.

250
00:19:53.240 --> 00:19:54.319
<v Speaker 1>But I know what you're.

251
00:19:54.160 --> 00:19:57.839
<v Speaker 2>Thinking, because I'm thinking it too, And here's the deal.

252
00:20:00.119 --> 00:20:06.559
<v Speaker 1>Reports immediately surfaced claiming that Constonzo had faked his fucking

253
00:20:07.599 --> 00:20:13.799
<v Speaker 1>death and he substituted his body for that of another

254
00:20:14.279 --> 00:20:20.920
<v Speaker 1>cult member. And I believe that one hundred percent, y'all,

255
00:20:21.079 --> 00:20:26.400
<v Speaker 1>the two bodies in the closet had been absolutely riddled

256
00:20:26.480 --> 00:20:32.839
<v Speaker 1>with automatic weapon fire making identification damn near impossible. So

257
00:20:33.039 --> 00:20:38.519
<v Speaker 1>clever of them, right. I do wonder though if Constanzo

258
00:20:39.200 --> 00:20:41.680
<v Speaker 1>let his boyfriend take the l though.

259
00:20:42.880 --> 00:20:46.720
<v Speaker 2>Like, okay, Mitchie, we're gonna die together.

260
00:20:47.039 --> 00:20:51.119
<v Speaker 1>True of prevails and it's probably a good thing anyway,

261
00:20:51.200 --> 00:20:54.839
<v Speaker 1>since I didn't tell you. But I am HIV positive

262
00:20:54.960 --> 00:20:58.200
<v Speaker 1>and PREP won't be invented for another twenty years or

263
00:20:58.240 --> 00:20:58.920
<v Speaker 1>some shit like.

264
00:20:58.880 --> 00:21:01.240
<v Speaker 2>That, so we might as well get it over with.

265
00:21:02.519 --> 00:21:05.079
<v Speaker 2>Just wait for me in the closet. I'll be right there.

266
00:21:06.119 --> 00:21:09.319
<v Speaker 1>Fucking Mitchie gets in the closet and the next thing

267
00:21:09.319 --> 00:21:12.400
<v Speaker 1>he knows, the door opens and fucking host Sway is

268
00:21:12.440 --> 00:21:18.119
<v Speaker 1>standing there, locked and loaded. Poof motherfucker died alone, confused

269
00:21:18.400 --> 00:21:19.640
<v Speaker 1>and probably with HIV.

270
00:21:20.000 --> 00:21:21.079
<v Speaker 2>Who knows, right.

271
00:21:22.720 --> 00:21:28.359
<v Speaker 1>But maybe, just maybe Constanzo took his little cream puff

272
00:21:28.400 --> 00:21:33.559
<v Speaker 1>on the road with him because Mexico City newspapers carried

273
00:21:33.599 --> 00:21:38.079
<v Speaker 1>reports of witnesses claiming that two men unidentified had been

274
00:21:38.119 --> 00:21:43.559
<v Speaker 1>seen fleeing the scene of the shootout, and the body

275
00:21:43.599 --> 00:21:50.559
<v Speaker 1>identified as Constanzo's was claimed by US consular officials allegedly

276
00:21:50.599 --> 00:21:54.519
<v Speaker 1>acting on behalf of Constanzo's mother, and they flew the

277
00:21:54.559 --> 00:22:00.599
<v Speaker 1>fucking corpse to Miami to be cremated a sap. So

278
00:22:00.640 --> 00:22:05.759
<v Speaker 1>they took the body and basically cremated it immediately. Nothing

279
00:22:05.799 --> 00:22:11.039
<v Speaker 1>suspicious about that at all, right, And as the investigation proceeded,

280
00:22:11.160 --> 00:22:15.759
<v Speaker 1>reports on the case grew more and more disturbing. And

281
00:22:15.920 --> 00:22:18.559
<v Speaker 1>this is where we get into the real biscuits and

282
00:22:18.599 --> 00:22:22.839
<v Speaker 1>gravy of the whole situation, because police reported finding blood

283
00:22:22.880 --> 00:22:28.559
<v Speaker 1>splattered altars in the homes of many of the suspected cultists,

284
00:22:28.559 --> 00:22:32.599
<v Speaker 1>and Mexico City newspapers openly speculated.

285
00:22:32.319 --> 00:22:34.640
<v Speaker 2>That human infants had been.

286
00:22:34.720 --> 00:22:38.720
<v Speaker 1>Ritually sacrificed by the fucking group. Like I said, this

287
00:22:38.759 --> 00:22:41.799
<v Speaker 1>is where we're getting into the biscuits and gravy. Uh,

288
00:22:41.920 --> 00:22:43.799
<v Speaker 1>let me get a sip of my beer here.

289
00:22:48.319 --> 00:22:52.440
<v Speaker 2>I'm trying to get trashed. Just kidding now.

290
00:22:53.039 --> 00:22:57.000
<v Speaker 1>Some reporters even said that babies might even have been

291
00:22:57.160 --> 00:23:03.480
<v Speaker 1>bred specifically for the richual sacrifice, and a guy named

292
00:23:03.599 --> 00:23:09.680
<v Speaker 1>Michael Newton reported that from eighteen ninety seven to nineteen

293
00:23:09.759 --> 00:23:15.960
<v Speaker 1>eighty nine there were seventy four unsolved ritual homicides in

294
00:23:16.119 --> 00:23:21.440
<v Speaker 1>Mexico City. Fourteen of those victims were infants. Other reports

295
00:23:21.480 --> 00:23:26.440
<v Speaker 1>noted that in custody, High Priestess Sarah Aldaltre displayed quote

296
00:23:26.519 --> 00:23:30.640
<v Speaker 1>signs of a split personality, and as the days were on,

297
00:23:30.920 --> 00:23:35.759
<v Speaker 1>three separate personas became evident end quote. So bitch's got

298
00:23:35.799 --> 00:23:41.000
<v Speaker 1>split personality, like I'm always saying, though that is without

299
00:23:41.079 --> 00:23:44.359
<v Speaker 1>saying actually, because most of these fucking cultists and Satanists

300
00:23:44.720 --> 00:23:46.160
<v Speaker 1>have fucking split personality.

301
00:23:46.200 --> 00:23:46.480
<v Speaker 3>But so.

302
00:23:46.960 --> 00:23:50.559
<v Speaker 1>A US customs agent told the Houston Chronicle that she

303
00:23:51.400 --> 00:23:54.759
<v Speaker 1>clearly had a dual personality, and like most of the

304
00:23:54.799 --> 00:23:59.599
<v Speaker 1>other cultists, Adultre, who had married on Halloween Day nineteen

305
00:23:59.640 --> 00:24:03.000
<v Speaker 1>eighty three, had links to the Hernandez drug family, not

306
00:24:03.079 --> 00:24:05.759
<v Speaker 1>saying there's anything wrong with getting married on Halloween Day.

307
00:24:05.839 --> 00:24:08.039
<v Speaker 1>I'd probably do it myself. But I don't have fucking

308
00:24:08.079 --> 00:24:12.720
<v Speaker 1>split personality. So A, well, maybe sometimes I don't know

309
00:24:13.240 --> 00:24:16.240
<v Speaker 1>what I know. If I did, the other personality would come.

310
00:24:16.160 --> 00:24:17.640
<v Speaker 2>Out and I should. Oh, you know what?

311
00:24:17.759 --> 00:24:20.400
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes you know, I feel like I do, like when

312
00:24:20.440 --> 00:24:22.559
<v Speaker 1>you're drunk or high or you know, you haven't.

313
00:24:23.079 --> 00:24:25.759
<v Speaker 2>I don't have split personality. Fuck listen.

314
00:24:27.160 --> 00:24:32.079
<v Speaker 1>A particularly compelling report in the Brownsville Herald revealed that

315
00:24:32.160 --> 00:24:36.519
<v Speaker 1>the drug trafficking Metamorros cult was part of a massive

316
00:24:37.119 --> 00:24:42.920
<v Speaker 1>hemisphere wide drug trafficking network here's a quote quote Federal

317
00:24:43.000 --> 00:24:46.920
<v Speaker 1>agents have established a pattern of drug trafficking from the

318
00:24:47.000 --> 00:24:51.319
<v Speaker 1>Hernandez family and Metamorros to top Chicago.

319
00:24:51.160 --> 00:24:53.039
<v Speaker 2>Mob bosses in quote.

320
00:24:53.680 --> 00:24:59.160
<v Speaker 1>Interestingly, Costanzo was reportedly cited in Chicago during the time

321
00:24:59.279 --> 00:25:02.480
<v Speaker 1>that he was the focus of the manhunt, but those

322
00:25:02.559 --> 00:25:06.759
<v Speaker 1>fucking reports were completely ignored by authorities. Makes it a

323
00:25:06.799 --> 00:25:09.200
<v Speaker 1>little difficult for him to be dead in a closet

324
00:25:09.599 --> 00:25:14.960
<v Speaker 1>shortly after being spotted in Chicago, doesn't it. And in

325
00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:18.799
<v Speaker 1>the wake of the Metamoros case, two members of the

326
00:25:18.839 --> 00:25:24.359
<v Speaker 1>Texas State Legislature, Senator J. E. Brown and Representative Sam Johnson,

327
00:25:24.759 --> 00:25:28.960
<v Speaker 1>introduced a bill aimed at combating cult related ritual crime,

328
00:25:29.440 --> 00:25:32.279
<v Speaker 1>which they said was becoming a problem in Texas and

329
00:25:32.440 --> 00:25:36.680
<v Speaker 1>elsewhere in the country. And after a decade had passed,

330
00:25:37.279 --> 00:25:41.000
<v Speaker 1>the problem had not fucking subsided. Like I said, the

331
00:25:41.039 --> 00:25:43.920
<v Speaker 1>world's the stage. They had to fucking burd in like

332
00:25:44.039 --> 00:25:46.720
<v Speaker 1>they were doing something about it. But we all know

333
00:25:46.839 --> 00:25:51.839
<v Speaker 1>that's not the case. And get this shit. It actually

334
00:25:51.839 --> 00:25:57.640
<v Speaker 1>became super evident when another excavation began at a ranch

335
00:25:57.759 --> 00:26:04.319
<v Speaker 1>near Warez, Mexico, and fucking buckle up, because that property

336
00:26:04.680 --> 00:26:10.160
<v Speaker 1>was located precisely where Henry Lee Lucas had claimed that

337
00:26:10.240 --> 00:26:14.119
<v Speaker 1>the Hand of Death cult maintained a ranch. So now

338
00:26:14.160 --> 00:26:16.920
<v Speaker 1>we're starting to see that maybe he wasn't a backwards

339
00:26:16.960 --> 00:26:19.680
<v Speaker 1>country fuck that didn't know what he was talking about.

340
00:26:19.960 --> 00:26:24.839
<v Speaker 1>Maybe there's something substantial to his claims. So the first

341
00:26:24.920 --> 00:26:29.079
<v Speaker 1>reports on the Warez Ranch surfaced on December one, nineteen

342
00:26:29.160 --> 00:26:34.119
<v Speaker 1>ninety nine, less than five months after Recindez Ramirez surrendered

343
00:26:34.279 --> 00:26:37.720
<v Speaker 1>to US authorities at a location on the US border

344
00:26:38.079 --> 00:26:42.559
<v Speaker 1>very near the fucking ranch, and a Los Angeles Times

345
00:26:42.599 --> 00:26:48.240
<v Speaker 1>report said that quote clandestine burial grounds were practically within

346
00:26:48.519 --> 00:26:53.880
<v Speaker 1>sight of the US border end quote, and early reports

347
00:26:53.880 --> 00:26:59.079
<v Speaker 1>indicated that authorities anticipated exzooming between one hundred and three

348
00:26:59.160 --> 00:27:04.039
<v Speaker 1>hundred bodies from mass graves on the ranch, including twenty

349
00:27:04.240 --> 00:27:08.880
<v Speaker 1>two missing US citizens and a number of former FBI

350
00:27:09.079 --> 00:27:13.440
<v Speaker 1>and DEA informants. Anyone else but me hearing this for

351
00:27:13.519 --> 00:27:16.240
<v Speaker 1>the first fucking time, Yeah, I know.

352
00:27:17.119 --> 00:27:17.519
<v Speaker 2>Wild.

353
00:27:18.160 --> 00:27:23.119
<v Speaker 1>So the investigation was quickly expanded to include at least

354
00:27:23.559 --> 00:27:28.839
<v Speaker 1>three more possible burial grounds in the area. US authorities,

355
00:27:28.960 --> 00:27:33.200
<v Speaker 1>having learned a lesson from the Metamoros case, immediately moved

356
00:27:33.240 --> 00:27:37.119
<v Speaker 1>in to take charge of the investigation, but out of nowhere.

357
00:27:37.400 --> 00:27:41.880
<v Speaker 1>A fucking group of irate Mexican senators grilled the US

358
00:27:41.920 --> 00:27:45.759
<v Speaker 1>Foreign Minister on the FBI's aggressive role in the investigation

359
00:27:46.160 --> 00:27:49.759
<v Speaker 1>and loudly denounced the fact that exhumed bodies were being

360
00:27:49.799 --> 00:27:55.079
<v Speaker 1>transferred to the US for forensic examination. But by mid December,

361
00:27:55.480 --> 00:27:58.000
<v Speaker 1>with the US firmly in control of the case and

362
00:27:58.200 --> 00:28:02.200
<v Speaker 1>with all evidence being clinned Yestonley transferred onto US soil,

363
00:28:02.720 --> 00:28:06.880
<v Speaker 1>Mexico's Attorney general was claiming that the early reports had

364
00:28:06.920 --> 00:28:13.079
<v Speaker 1>been wildly dramatized. The news reports claimed that only nine

365
00:28:13.480 --> 00:28:16.799
<v Speaker 1>bodies had been found at the three separate burial sites,

366
00:28:17.319 --> 00:28:22.680
<v Speaker 1>and no more were expected to be uncovered. Fucking huge

367
00:28:22.759 --> 00:28:26.559
<v Speaker 1>turn of events, all of a sudden. Not only that,

368
00:28:27.200 --> 00:28:32.079
<v Speaker 1>but press coverage of the case almost immediately ceased. The

369
00:28:32.279 --> 00:28:37.000
<v Speaker 1>media pretty much came out and assured everyone that there's

370
00:28:37.200 --> 00:28:41.079
<v Speaker 1>nothing to see here, folks, Just a couple hundred dead

371
00:28:41.279 --> 00:28:43.839
<v Speaker 1>USFBI and CIA informants.

372
00:28:44.279 --> 00:28:45.000
<v Speaker 2>That's all.

373
00:28:45.680 --> 00:28:49.640
<v Speaker 1>I mean, like eight or nine prostitutes is all. It

374
00:28:49.720 --> 00:28:55.119
<v Speaker 1>is nothing to see here. That's exactly what they want

375
00:28:55.160 --> 00:28:59.039
<v Speaker 1>people to believe. It's always the fucking, poor, fucking prostitutes

376
00:28:59.519 --> 00:29:00.960
<v Speaker 1>that no nobody cares about.

377
00:29:01.119 --> 00:29:04.160
<v Speaker 2>So people just move on with their life. But hello,

378
00:29:04.640 --> 00:29:05.839
<v Speaker 2>that's not what it was.

379
00:29:07.680 --> 00:29:11.240
<v Speaker 1>So the final report, carried by the Los Angeles Times

380
00:29:11.319 --> 00:29:16.599
<v Speaker 1>maintained that some victims had quote reportedly disappeared after being

381
00:29:16.640 --> 00:29:21.200
<v Speaker 1>detained by men in Mexican police uniforms, raising questions about

382
00:29:21.240 --> 00:29:25.680
<v Speaker 1>the extent of police corruption in Mexican law enforcement end

383
00:29:25.720 --> 00:29:30.640
<v Speaker 1>quote and not surprisingly, the reports made no mention of

384
00:29:30.680 --> 00:29:36.240
<v Speaker 1>the extent of police corruption in American law enforcement. Officials

385
00:29:36.279 --> 00:29:38.920
<v Speaker 1>were so fucking quick to claim that there was no

386
00:29:39.079 --> 00:29:41.839
<v Speaker 1>connection between the bodies exzoomed at the ranch and the

387
00:29:41.920 --> 00:29:45.680
<v Speaker 1>unsolved murders of hundreds of young women in the Juarez area,

388
00:29:45.960 --> 00:29:49.680
<v Speaker 1>And to this fucking day, there is no consensus on

389
00:29:49.759 --> 00:29:53.319
<v Speaker 1>the number of women that had been brutally raped, tortured,

390
00:29:53.400 --> 00:29:56.599
<v Speaker 1>and murdered since the killings began in nineteen ninety three,

391
00:29:57.319 --> 00:30:00.319
<v Speaker 1>but estimates run as high as fucking five hundred dude,

392
00:30:00.599 --> 00:30:05.720
<v Speaker 1>with hundreds more reportedly missing and possibly did. So let's

393
00:30:05.759 --> 00:30:10.880
<v Speaker 1>dig a little bit deeper. In the nineteen sixties, the

394
00:30:10.920 --> 00:30:16.839
<v Speaker 1>Mexican government offered Western corporations a sweetheart deal build factories

395
00:30:16.920 --> 00:30:19.720
<v Speaker 1>on the Mexican side of the border to manufacture and

396
00:30:19.759 --> 00:30:25.359
<v Speaker 1>assemble goods, operate with disregard for environmental and labor laws,

397
00:30:25.400 --> 00:30:30.039
<v Speaker 1>and to top it off, pay no local taxes and

398
00:30:30.079 --> 00:30:36.119
<v Speaker 1>then boom. The so called maqui ladoras I think I'm

399
00:30:36.160 --> 00:30:41.319
<v Speaker 1>pronouncing that correctly, which had previously been known as sweatshops,

400
00:30:41.440 --> 00:30:44.519
<v Speaker 1>soon began to dot the US Mexico border.

401
00:30:45.400 --> 00:30:47.160
<v Speaker 2>Before long they.

402
00:30:47.119 --> 00:30:51.599
<v Speaker 1>Numbered in the fucking hundreds. The highest concentration of those

403
00:30:51.599 --> 00:30:56.440
<v Speaker 1>sweatshops is in Juarez, which is home to about five

404
00:30:56.519 --> 00:31:02.279
<v Speaker 1>hundred plus factories employing two hundred thousan plus workers in

405
00:31:02.319 --> 00:31:06.799
<v Speaker 1>About eighty percent of the factories in Wares are American owned. Surprise,

406
00:31:07.880 --> 00:31:15.160
<v Speaker 1>and as the labor intensive sweatshops proliferated, the populations of

407
00:31:15.400 --> 00:31:21.359
<v Speaker 1>border cities like Wares quickly swelled. But as the population grew,

408
00:31:21.759 --> 00:31:26.920
<v Speaker 1>there was no corresponding investment in the cities. There has

409
00:31:27.119 --> 00:31:32.359
<v Speaker 1>been no attempt to create infrastructure, no roads or housings.

410
00:31:32.799 --> 00:31:37.880
<v Speaker 1>Taxation is voluntary for companies in most of them pay

411
00:31:38.240 --> 00:31:40.640
<v Speaker 1>fucking none.

412
00:31:40.799 --> 00:31:43.000
<v Speaker 2>They've done a fucking bang.

413
00:31:42.799 --> 00:31:46.839
<v Speaker 1>Up job over there, and according to official estimates, the

414
00:31:46.880 --> 00:31:51.839
<v Speaker 1>population of Wares has tripled, running as high as over

415
00:31:52.119 --> 00:31:59.000
<v Speaker 1>two million. Many of the new arrivals are fucking young women.

416
00:32:00.079 --> 00:32:04.799
<v Speaker 1>Since the workforce employed by the sweatshops is seventy percent female,

417
00:32:05.680 --> 00:32:08.880
<v Speaker 1>and most of these young women end up living in

418
00:32:08.960 --> 00:32:13.039
<v Speaker 1>these fucking shantytown neighborhoods that have sprung up in cities

419
00:32:13.119 --> 00:32:17.359
<v Speaker 1>like Wuarez. These neighborhoods have no real roads, no street names,

420
00:32:17.400 --> 00:32:23.880
<v Speaker 1>no addresses, no utilities, and no public services. Violence is endemic,

421
00:32:24.680 --> 00:32:28.319
<v Speaker 1>drug lords rule the streets, and there's no fucking taco

422
00:32:28.400 --> 00:32:34.960
<v Speaker 1>bell I mean fucking Mayhem and fucking Life in Wahrez

423
00:32:35.039 --> 00:32:40.160
<v Speaker 1>is punctuated by executions and kidnappings in broad daylight committed

424
00:32:40.200 --> 00:32:46.440
<v Speaker 1>by death squads working for the lords of the lucrative trade.

425
00:32:46.680 --> 00:32:51.640
<v Speaker 1>A city associated with grinding poverty and home to one

426
00:32:51.680 --> 00:32:57.839
<v Speaker 1>of Mexico's foremost drug trafficking operations, and it is against

427
00:32:57.880 --> 00:33:04.039
<v Speaker 1>this backdrop the murders have been committed. Most of the

428
00:33:04.119 --> 00:33:09.880
<v Speaker 1>victims have been fucking sweatshop workers. Some of them have

429
00:33:10.000 --> 00:33:13.960
<v Speaker 1>disappeared while traveling alone late at night, after having their

430
00:33:14.000 --> 00:33:19.319
<v Speaker 1>workshifts changed at the last minute, or after being locked

431
00:33:19.319 --> 00:33:25.079
<v Speaker 1>out for arriving to work late, and some reports revealed

432
00:33:25.359 --> 00:33:29.279
<v Speaker 1>that eerily similar murders are now occurring in other sweatshop

433
00:33:29.319 --> 00:33:35.559
<v Speaker 1>towns along the US Mexico border, including Chihuahua, Nueva Laredo

434
00:33:36.039 --> 00:33:41.680
<v Speaker 1>and Metamorros and fucking many of the war as victims

435
00:33:42.200 --> 00:33:46.920
<v Speaker 1>have had modeling quote unquote photographs taken of them while

436
00:33:47.200 --> 00:33:52.759
<v Speaker 1>they were at work in the fucking factories, and some

437
00:33:52.799 --> 00:33:59.279
<v Speaker 1>circumstantial evidence suggests a very fucking disturbing scenario. The photographs

438
00:33:59.480 --> 00:34:04.319
<v Speaker 1>taken by recruiters quote unquote working within this wetshops are

439
00:34:04.440 --> 00:34:09.599
<v Speaker 1>arranged in albums that are then used as catalogs from

440
00:34:09.679 --> 00:34:13.239
<v Speaker 1>which the fucking victims are selected.

441
00:34:14.400 --> 00:34:15.000
<v Speaker 2>Just think.

442
00:34:16.639 --> 00:34:19.800
<v Speaker 1>You think it's just picturre d ay at the factory, turns

443
00:34:19.840 --> 00:34:21.159
<v Speaker 1>out you're literally.

444
00:34:20.840 --> 00:34:24.039
<v Speaker 2>Lining up for the slaughter. So get this.

445
00:34:25.159 --> 00:34:29.119
<v Speaker 1>The first Warez victim's body, by most accounts, was found

446
00:34:29.159 --> 00:34:33.480
<v Speaker 1>on January twenty third, nineteen ninety three. The first suspect

447
00:34:33.880 --> 00:34:38.920
<v Speaker 1>was abdel Latif Sheriff, who was arrested two years later

448
00:34:39.039 --> 00:34:45.199
<v Speaker 1>in nineteen ninety five. Sheriff had a very interesting history,

449
00:34:45.920 --> 00:34:49.639
<v Speaker 1>one with close parallels to many other alleged serial killers,

450
00:34:49.760 --> 00:34:53.519
<v Speaker 1>as we will see in later episodes. But so Sharriff

451
00:34:54.039 --> 00:34:57.559
<v Speaker 1>was born in Egypt in nineteen forty seven and was

452
00:34:57.719 --> 00:35:01.880
<v Speaker 1>reportedly sexually abused as a child known surprise, including being

453
00:35:01.960 --> 00:35:06.920
<v Speaker 1>frequently sodomized by his own fucking father and other mel relatives,

454
00:35:08.000 --> 00:35:12.119
<v Speaker 1>and in his early twenties, Sharriff immigrated to the United States,

455
00:35:12.280 --> 00:35:17.360
<v Speaker 1>landing first in New York City and then in New Hope, Pennsylvania.

456
00:35:18.320 --> 00:35:21.840
<v Speaker 1>By nineteen eighty one, he was living in Palm Beach, Florida,

457
00:35:22.159 --> 00:35:26.039
<v Speaker 1>where he worked as a chemist and engineer. In May

458
00:35:26.119 --> 00:35:29.920
<v Speaker 1>of that year, Sharriff beat and repeatedly raped an unidentified

459
00:35:29.960 --> 00:35:34.039
<v Speaker 1>twenty three year old woman. For those offenses, he received

460
00:35:34.320 --> 00:35:38.519
<v Speaker 1>only probation, and in August of the same year he

461
00:35:38.639 --> 00:35:43.880
<v Speaker 1>was charged with another rape. He was again convicted, but

462
00:35:44.159 --> 00:35:48.599
<v Speaker 1>he served just forty five days. The next year, he

463
00:35:48.719 --> 00:35:52.960
<v Speaker 1>was married very briefly in Gainesville, Florida, until he beat

464
00:35:53.000 --> 00:35:57.199
<v Speaker 1>his bride literally unconscious, and she divorced him shortly Fucking

465
00:35:57.280 --> 00:36:01.360
<v Speaker 1>after that, in March nineteen eighty three, Shariff beat and

466
00:36:01.440 --> 00:36:06.079
<v Speaker 1>repeatedly raped yet another victim. In January nineteen eighty four,

467
00:36:06.119 --> 00:36:10.480
<v Speaker 1>while awaiting sentencing, he managed to escape, but he was

468
00:36:10.559 --> 00:36:14.800
<v Speaker 1>soon recaptured and on January thirty first sentenced to serve

469
00:36:15.000 --> 00:36:21.000
<v Speaker 1>twelve years. Not quite six years later, in October nineteen

470
00:36:21.039 --> 00:36:27.280
<v Speaker 1>eighty nine, Shariff was paroled. At that time, he was

471
00:36:27.320 --> 00:36:33.800
<v Speaker 1>to be deported but instead he was allowed, for unexplained.

472
00:36:33.199 --> 00:36:35.800
<v Speaker 2>Reasons, to remain in.

473
00:36:35.719 --> 00:36:40.599
<v Speaker 1>The country, and Shariff started working in Midland, Texas at

474
00:36:40.960 --> 00:36:46.679
<v Speaker 1>Benchmark Research and Technology, And while working and living in Texas,

475
00:36:47.360 --> 00:36:52.800
<v Speaker 1>the thrice convicted beating, raping douche hole was photographed shaking

476
00:36:52.840 --> 00:36:57.480
<v Speaker 1>hands with Sentator Phil Graham, in addition to being singled

477
00:36:57.519 --> 00:37:03.039
<v Speaker 1>out for praise by the US Department of Energy. Then,

478
00:37:03.119 --> 00:37:07.000
<v Speaker 1>in nineteen ninety one, while still on fucking parole, Sheriff

479
00:37:07.079 --> 00:37:11.880
<v Speaker 1>was arrested for drunk driving. He suffered no repercussions at

480
00:37:11.920 --> 00:37:15.360
<v Speaker 1>all whatsoever for that offense, and by nineteen ninety three

481
00:37:15.440 --> 00:37:18.559
<v Speaker 1>he was once again facing charges of holding a woman

482
00:37:18.639 --> 00:37:23.559
<v Speaker 1>captive and raping her repeatedly. But as luck would have it,

483
00:37:24.400 --> 00:37:28.679
<v Speaker 1>in May of the following year, the state of Texas

484
00:37:29.239 --> 00:37:34.480
<v Speaker 1>inexplicably agreed to drop all the charges against the fucking

485
00:37:34.559 --> 00:37:41.519
<v Speaker 1>mongrel ash repeat offender if Sheriff would agree to voluntarily

486
00:37:41.679 --> 00:37:42.639
<v Speaker 1>leave the country.

487
00:37:43.800 --> 00:37:49.280
<v Speaker 2>So what did he do? Well? He promptly moved.

488
00:37:49.000 --> 00:37:56.360
<v Speaker 1>To an exclusive residential neighborhood in fucking Wais, Mexico, and

489
00:37:56.519 --> 00:38:03.599
<v Speaker 1>went to work at Benchmark's sweatshop and boom. In nineteen

490
00:38:03.719 --> 00:38:09.199
<v Speaker 1>ninety five, October Sheriff was arrested by fucking Mexican authorities

491
00:38:09.559 --> 00:38:15.119
<v Speaker 1>and charged with guess what, burglary Just kidding, fucking rape,

492
00:38:15.280 --> 00:38:19.519
<v Speaker 1>definitely still raping, and even though he was convicted and

493
00:38:19.559 --> 00:38:23.280
<v Speaker 1>given a thirty year sentence, the bodies of young women

494
00:38:23.440 --> 00:38:29.960
<v Speaker 1>continued to pile up in and around Warez. Next to

495
00:38:30.000 --> 00:38:34.199
<v Speaker 1>be arrested were a gang of nightclub workers known as

496
00:38:34.239 --> 00:38:38.440
<v Speaker 1>the Rebels, who were allegedly being paid by Shariff to

497
00:38:38.679 --> 00:38:40.119
<v Speaker 1>continue the killings.

498
00:38:40.280 --> 00:38:41.960
<v Speaker 2>Whoa twist.

499
00:38:43.280 --> 00:38:47.519
<v Speaker 1>The gang was led by Armandares Diez, also known as

500
00:38:47.920 --> 00:38:52.559
<v Speaker 1>L Diablo, and in early nineteen ninety nine, five members

501
00:38:52.599 --> 00:38:58.800
<v Speaker 1>of another gang, the Tolltext, led by Jesus Guardado Marques,

502
00:38:59.519 --> 00:39:04.119
<v Speaker 1>also known as El Dracula, were arrested and accused of

503
00:39:04.199 --> 00:39:06.360
<v Speaker 1>collaborating with fucking Sheriff.

504
00:39:07.119 --> 00:39:09.400
<v Speaker 2>The gang confessed to fifteen of.

505
00:39:09.320 --> 00:39:13.679
<v Speaker 1>The murders, but later recanted, claiming that their torture by

506
00:39:13.719 --> 00:39:16.639
<v Speaker 1>the police had produced the confessions. Now this is interesting.

507
00:39:17.000 --> 00:39:20.280
<v Speaker 1>This is a plot twist, okay, m night Shamalan style,

508
00:39:20.559 --> 00:39:22.960
<v Speaker 1>because you want to blame it on the gang, right

509
00:39:23.639 --> 00:39:27.599
<v Speaker 1>Dracula and fucking El the Oblo. It sounds fucking pature perfect,

510
00:39:27.920 --> 00:39:30.760
<v Speaker 1>But then you find out the police literally tortured them

511
00:39:30.800 --> 00:39:37.960
<v Speaker 1>into confessing h and the arrests of the two gangs

512
00:39:38.400 --> 00:39:41.119
<v Speaker 1>failed to slow the pace of the killings and disappearances.

513
00:39:41.440 --> 00:39:44.880
<v Speaker 1>So obviously wasn't fucking them. Even though you want to

514
00:39:44.920 --> 00:39:47.840
<v Speaker 1>pin it on them because they got some fucking badass gang.

515
00:39:47.679 --> 00:39:50.800
<v Speaker 2>Names, it's not them.

516
00:39:50.840 --> 00:39:54.440
<v Speaker 1>After the arrest of the Toltecs, the FBI sent some

517
00:39:54.519 --> 00:40:00.400
<v Speaker 1>of its famous profilers to Warez. Among them was Robert Wrestler,

518
00:40:00.920 --> 00:40:05.039
<v Speaker 1>who fucking helped along the theory that the murders were

519
00:40:05.079 --> 00:40:09.440
<v Speaker 1>the work of Rescindez Ramirez from the last episode. But

520
00:40:09.639 --> 00:40:13.719
<v Speaker 1>the arrest of Rescindez Ramirez in July nineteen nine didn't

521
00:40:13.719 --> 00:40:17.119
<v Speaker 1>put a fucking stop to the killings either, and before

522
00:40:17.159 --> 00:40:21.920
<v Speaker 1>the year was out, more and more young women would

523
00:40:22.000 --> 00:40:25.800
<v Speaker 1>go missing, more bodies would surface in their mass graves

524
00:40:25.840 --> 00:40:28.920
<v Speaker 1>at the ranch would be discovered. On November six and

525
00:40:28.960 --> 00:40:33.559
<v Speaker 1>November seven, two thousand and one, eight of the bodies

526
00:40:33.840 --> 00:40:37.000
<v Speaker 1>were discovered in a vacant lot just three hundred yards

527
00:40:37.400 --> 00:40:40.039
<v Speaker 1>from the headquarters of the Association of.

528
00:40:40.039 --> 00:40:41.280
<v Speaker 2>The fucking Sweatshops.

529
00:40:41.960 --> 00:40:46.440
<v Speaker 1>And then they got these fucking confessions from these two

530
00:40:46.719 --> 00:40:53.360
<v Speaker 1>bus drivers, Victor Javier Garcia and Gustavo Gonzalez Mezza fucking

531
00:40:53.519 --> 00:40:59.199
<v Speaker 1>bus drivers bus drivers, okay, And just like with the

532
00:40:59.239 --> 00:41:04.519
<v Speaker 1>previous us, the fucking police obtained these confessions through literally

533
00:41:04.760 --> 00:41:10.960
<v Speaker 1>torturing these two fucking bus drivers. They obviously picked the

534
00:41:11.119 --> 00:41:15.199
<v Speaker 1>wrong fucking day to be a bus driver in Warez.

535
00:41:16.840 --> 00:41:21.039
<v Speaker 1>These two guys had fucking visible burn marks on their bodies,

536
00:41:21.559 --> 00:41:24.599
<v Speaker 1>marks that had been made with stun guns used by

537
00:41:24.639 --> 00:41:30.840
<v Speaker 1>the police to try and elicit confessions. And a detective

538
00:41:31.159 --> 00:41:34.440
<v Speaker 1>thoroughly searched a van that the bus drivers had supposedly

539
00:41:34.559 --> 00:41:37.880
<v Speaker 1>used to abduct the women, and wouldn't you know, he

540
00:41:38.000 --> 00:41:44.480
<v Speaker 1>found no evidence to support the allegations. And actually, according

541
00:41:44.480 --> 00:41:50.000
<v Speaker 1>to the detective, he was asked to help plant evidence

542
00:41:50.159 --> 00:41:53.519
<v Speaker 1>against the two bus drivers who were charged with the murders.

543
00:41:54.280 --> 00:41:58.199
<v Speaker 1>He said, quote, a couple of police officers brought us

544
00:41:58.280 --> 00:42:00.920
<v Speaker 1>items for us to put in the and they said

545
00:42:01.159 --> 00:42:05.800
<v Speaker 1>was used to abduct the women end quote. And thankfully,

546
00:42:06.199 --> 00:42:09.039
<v Speaker 1>the fucking detective refused to take part in the framing

547
00:42:09.199 --> 00:42:12.199
<v Speaker 1>of the two bus drivers, and in January two thousand

548
00:42:12.239 --> 00:42:15.440
<v Speaker 1>and two he resigned in protest over the handling of

549
00:42:15.480 --> 00:42:19.599
<v Speaker 1>the case. He has said that he believes that some

550
00:42:19.679 --> 00:42:22.760
<v Speaker 1>police were involved and are involved in the murders.

551
00:42:23.679 --> 00:42:27.480
<v Speaker 2>Well, fucking of course they are. But no good deed.

552
00:42:27.360 --> 00:42:34.519
<v Speaker 1>Goes unpunished because detective Mains reported receiving death threats intended

553
00:42:34.519 --> 00:42:35.840
<v Speaker 1>to silence him.

554
00:42:36.239 --> 00:42:38.239
<v Speaker 2>But he wasn't the.

555
00:42:38.119 --> 00:42:41.639
<v Speaker 1>Only one blabbing, because in January two thousand and two,

556
00:42:41.840 --> 00:42:47.360
<v Speaker 1>Jorge Campos Mario, a federal deputy attorney in Mexico City,

557
00:42:47.719 --> 00:42:52.760
<v Speaker 1>told reporters that the sons of wealthy, powerful Mexican families

558
00:42:52.960 --> 00:42:57.880
<v Speaker 1>were connected to the killings, and fucking Camposts got a

559
00:42:57.920 --> 00:43:02.519
<v Speaker 1>first class ticket right the fuck transferred and he now

560
00:43:02.679 --> 00:43:08.719
<v Speaker 1>refuses to discuss the Wara's case. So moving on, the

561
00:43:08.840 --> 00:43:13.760
<v Speaker 1>case next landed in the lap of Irma Rodriguez Galarza,

562
00:43:14.920 --> 00:43:20.559
<v Speaker 1>and what did she get. Well, Irma Rodriguez Galarza's daughter

563
00:43:20.679 --> 00:43:25.199
<v Speaker 1>and husband were gunned down on the family's porch with

564
00:43:25.639 --> 00:43:33.559
<v Speaker 1>AK forty seven assault rifles. So camp Post apparently is

565
00:43:33.639 --> 00:43:36.840
<v Speaker 1>not alone in linking the war As murders.

566
00:43:36.760 --> 00:43:40.239
<v Speaker 2>To the sons of the rich and the powerful.

567
00:43:42.119 --> 00:43:47.239
<v Speaker 1>Now news reports said that those involved in the killings

568
00:43:47.280 --> 00:43:54.320
<v Speaker 1>come from prominent families that quote include landowners, major drug dealers,

569
00:43:54.599 --> 00:44:00.840
<v Speaker 1>construction barons, energy suppliers, and officials in both government and

570
00:44:01.199 --> 00:44:01.960
<v Speaker 1>the police.

571
00:44:02.159 --> 00:44:02.679
<v Speaker 2>End quote.

572
00:44:03.519 --> 00:44:09.039
<v Speaker 1>The killers, in other words, have no fear of the police.

573
00:44:09.079 --> 00:44:13.519
<v Speaker 1>And according to some Mexican officials, six people from the

574
00:44:13.679 --> 00:44:18.639
<v Speaker 1>Juarez el Paso area are having the women abducted for orgies,

575
00:44:19.159 --> 00:44:25.000
<v Speaker 1>after which, or perhaps during which, they are killed. A

576
00:44:25.159 --> 00:44:29.960
<v Speaker 1>Mexican eyes wide shut party. If you will, the password

577
00:44:30.239 --> 00:44:32.320
<v Speaker 1>is caesadillio.

578
00:44:33.639 --> 00:44:34.199
<v Speaker 2>Anyways.

579
00:44:35.800 --> 00:44:41.159
<v Speaker 1>On February fifth, two thousand and two, Mario Escabeedo Junior,

580
00:44:41.480 --> 00:44:47.119
<v Speaker 1>the attorney representing Gonzalez, one of the two bus drivers.

581
00:44:47.400 --> 00:44:48.559
<v Speaker 2>Was killed by police.

582
00:44:49.639 --> 00:44:54.239
<v Speaker 1>Escabedo was reportedly pursued at night by police in unmarked

583
00:44:54.280 --> 00:44:58.039
<v Speaker 1>vehicles until he lost control of his car, crash and

584
00:44:58.840 --> 00:45:04.679
<v Speaker 1>splatter as Scabetto is dead as Fuco because after he

585
00:45:04.800 --> 00:45:08.119
<v Speaker 1>crashed his car, he was then cut down in a

586
00:45:08.159 --> 00:45:17.199
<v Speaker 1>hail of police gunfire. So Escabetto's partner, Dante Almarrez reported

587
00:45:17.280 --> 00:45:20.920
<v Speaker 1>that he was advised to quote drop the case or

588
00:45:21.280 --> 00:45:23.800
<v Speaker 1>will kill you the same way we did Escabetto end

589
00:45:23.840 --> 00:45:28.000
<v Speaker 1>quote subtle, I like it. And then in August two

590
00:45:28.039 --> 00:45:35.599
<v Speaker 1>thousand and two, PBS aired a documentary film called Senorita Extravaada.

591
00:45:35.800 --> 00:45:39.440
<v Speaker 1>And in this fucking film they revealed that some of

592
00:45:39.480 --> 00:45:42.960
<v Speaker 1>the victims were missing for long periods before their deaths.

593
00:45:43.679 --> 00:45:48.159
<v Speaker 1>Some of their bodies displayed evidence of ritual sacrifice. In

594
00:45:48.239 --> 00:45:52.000
<v Speaker 1>many cases, the only remains that are ever found are

595
00:45:52.079 --> 00:45:56.440
<v Speaker 1>clothes and bones, and the bones are often mismatched, and

596
00:45:56.599 --> 00:46:00.519
<v Speaker 1>frequently these bones are found in far less time that

597
00:46:00.599 --> 00:46:03.119
<v Speaker 1>it would take a corpse to be reduced to a skeleton.

598
00:46:05.320 --> 00:46:10.280
<v Speaker 1>And fucking sometimes these skeleton remains just show up in

599
00:46:10.400 --> 00:46:15.039
<v Speaker 1>areas that have just been searched recently. So what that

600
00:46:15.159 --> 00:46:19.719
<v Speaker 1>means is they're being fucking dumped and waas. Police have

601
00:46:19.840 --> 00:46:23.760
<v Speaker 1>refused to investigate a number of viable leads, and they

602
00:46:23.920 --> 00:46:28.760
<v Speaker 1>have deliberately destroyed evidence, including more than a thousand pounds

603
00:46:29.119 --> 00:46:30.800
<v Speaker 1>of victim's clothing.

604
00:46:30.519 --> 00:46:34.079
<v Speaker 2>That was burned, fucking burned.

605
00:46:34.599 --> 00:46:38.800
<v Speaker 1>No searching for pews or hair fibers or nothing, just burned.

606
00:46:39.559 --> 00:46:44.880
<v Speaker 1>And one female witness who was arrested and then raped

607
00:46:44.920 --> 00:46:49.519
<v Speaker 1>in prison, told the filmmakers that her captors had showed

608
00:46:49.559 --> 00:46:53.559
<v Speaker 1>her photos of women being gang raped and beaten and

609
00:46:53.599 --> 00:46:58.599
<v Speaker 1>then doused in gasoline and burned alive. Not gonna lie,

610
00:46:59.280 --> 00:47:03.360
<v Speaker 1>that would add absolutely determine from saying any fucking thing else.

611
00:47:04.519 --> 00:47:09.519
<v Speaker 1>I mean, some of the victims were legitimately burned alive.

612
00:47:10.400 --> 00:47:17.760
<v Speaker 1>Others were strangled, stabed, bludgeoned, and or shot and according

613
00:47:17.800 --> 00:47:23.960
<v Speaker 1>to americas dot org quote, when they're not skeletal remains.

614
00:47:24.360 --> 00:47:27.559
<v Speaker 1>Most of the women's bodies are found in the nearby

615
00:47:27.679 --> 00:47:32.880
<v Speaker 1>desert with evidence of torture and gang rape. Forensic evidence

616
00:47:33.119 --> 00:47:35.719
<v Speaker 1>shows many are kept alive during this.

617
00:47:35.920 --> 00:47:37.719
<v Speaker 2>For days or longer.

618
00:47:38.360 --> 00:47:42.159
<v Speaker 1>The bodies are usually mutilated, laid out in cross formation,

619
00:47:42.719 --> 00:47:46.239
<v Speaker 1>and branded with signature carvings on various parts of their

620
00:47:46.239 --> 00:47:51.280
<v Speaker 1>bodies end quote. Some reports even said that many of

621
00:47:51.320 --> 00:47:56.239
<v Speaker 1>the recovered bodies exhibit similar slashing wounds to the breasts,

622
00:47:57.000 --> 00:48:02.000
<v Speaker 1>so they're just slicing these bitches titties off and so.

623
00:48:03.519 --> 00:48:06.880
<v Speaker 1>A March two thousand and two report claimed, quote, there

624
00:48:06.920 --> 00:48:11.519
<v Speaker 1>are patterns of mutilation that have not been publicly released

625
00:48:11.519 --> 00:48:16.880
<v Speaker 1>that could indicate Narco satanic rituals end quote. But so

626
00:48:17.000 --> 00:48:20.039
<v Speaker 1>then in October two thousand and two, the bodies of

627
00:48:20.159 --> 00:48:23.880
<v Speaker 1>two more victims surfaced. Three months later, in January two

628
00:48:23.920 --> 00:48:27.880
<v Speaker 1>thousand and three, three more were discovered. Not long after that,

629
00:48:28.079 --> 00:48:31.440
<v Speaker 1>on February eighth, almost a year to the day after

630
00:48:31.559 --> 00:48:36.599
<v Speaker 1>his attorney had been gunned down, Gustavo Gonzalez Mezza died

631
00:48:36.639 --> 00:48:43.440
<v Speaker 1>in custody following a relatively routine hernia operation. I won't

632
00:48:43.440 --> 00:48:47.480
<v Speaker 1>say why, but that fucking scares me to death. But

633
00:48:48.000 --> 00:48:51.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean, obviously they were trying to off this motherfucker.

634
00:48:51.360 --> 00:48:55.679
<v Speaker 1>But of course both Gonzalez and his wife had reported

635
00:48:55.840 --> 00:48:59.639
<v Speaker 1>receiving death threats. In just over a week after his death,

636
00:49:00.119 --> 00:49:05.239
<v Speaker 1>four more bodies were discovered. Police refused to acknowledge one

637
00:49:05.239 --> 00:49:08.159
<v Speaker 1>of the bodies, despite the fact that reporters and other

638
00:49:08.239 --> 00:49:12.199
<v Speaker 1>witnesses literally viewed it with their own fucking eyeballs. And

639
00:49:12.320 --> 00:49:16.480
<v Speaker 1>in May two thousand and three, the Warez murders, which

640
00:49:16.519 --> 00:49:19.960
<v Speaker 1>had been almost entirely ignored by the Western media for

641
00:49:20.039 --> 00:49:24.760
<v Speaker 1>a full fucking decade, were suddenly in the news, and

642
00:49:24.840 --> 00:49:27.239
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of reports actually pitched the theory that the

643
00:49:27.360 --> 00:49:31.840
<v Speaker 1>killings were the work of an organ trafficking ring and

644
00:49:31.880 --> 00:49:36.559
<v Speaker 1>that the ring probably had cult connections. New Zealand's one

645
00:49:37.320 --> 00:49:42.199
<v Speaker 1>news report stated that as many as ninety women may

646
00:49:42.239 --> 00:49:45.159
<v Speaker 1>have been killed by the ring, and some of their

647
00:49:45.280 --> 00:49:49.199
<v Speaker 1>organs were brought to the States by an unidentified American

648
00:49:49.239 --> 00:49:53.199
<v Speaker 1>delivery person, which is one hundred percent why I believe

649
00:49:53.199 --> 00:49:56.280
<v Speaker 1>these elitist people live so fucking long. They're getting new

650
00:49:56.360 --> 00:49:59.239
<v Speaker 1>fucking lungs and hearts and shit all the time they're

651
00:49:59.280 --> 00:50:02.239
<v Speaker 1>swapping out. It's like it's time for no oil change.

652
00:50:03.320 --> 00:50:08.559
<v Speaker 1>Like fucking that movie Jupiter Rising or whatever it's called,

653
00:50:08.960 --> 00:50:11.880
<v Speaker 1>or like in Dune with the Emperor guy all.

654
00:50:11.760 --> 00:50:14.920
<v Speaker 2>Hooked up to tubes and shit. That's like the realest shit.

655
00:50:16.239 --> 00:50:23.280
<v Speaker 1>But anyways, The Atlanta Journal Constitution spoke of federal investigators

656
00:50:23.400 --> 00:50:26.320
<v Speaker 1>quote looking into claims that some of the dozens of

657
00:50:26.360 --> 00:50:31.119
<v Speaker 1>women slain in the border city of suadad Juarez over

658
00:50:31.159 --> 00:50:34.159
<v Speaker 1>the last decade may have been killed for their internal

659
00:50:34.280 --> 00:50:38.760
<v Speaker 1>organs end quote. Other reports listed some different motives for

660
00:50:38.800 --> 00:50:43.119
<v Speaker 1>the murder, like quote satanic rituals, organ trafficking, and snuff

661
00:50:43.119 --> 00:50:46.800
<v Speaker 1>films where women are kidnapped, sexually assaulted and then murdered

662
00:50:46.840 --> 00:50:51.639
<v Speaker 1>on camera for Dalla dalla Bilzio. And that part wasn't

663
00:50:51.639 --> 00:50:54.800
<v Speaker 1>in the report, but you get it. Another report spoke

664
00:50:54.840 --> 00:50:58.880
<v Speaker 1>of quote evidence indicating the women may have been victims

665
00:50:58.920 --> 00:51:04.480
<v Speaker 1>of an international organ trafficking ring. Police were also investigating

666
00:51:04.519 --> 00:51:09.559
<v Speaker 1>the possibility that certain mutilations. Breasts were cut off on

667
00:51:09.719 --> 00:51:13.519
<v Speaker 1>a few of the victims and some had scars cut

668
00:51:13.599 --> 00:51:17.920
<v Speaker 1>in designs which might indicate the involvement of a religious

669
00:51:17.960 --> 00:51:19.000
<v Speaker 1>cult end quote.

670
00:51:19.760 --> 00:51:21.039
<v Speaker 2>Turns out, ladies.

671
00:51:20.719 --> 00:51:25.480
<v Speaker 1>And gents, the black dahlia was not a one time occurrence.

672
00:51:26.000 --> 00:51:30.800
<v Speaker 1>There's probably been some six hundred Mexican black dahlias in Warez.

673
00:51:31.760 --> 00:51:39.280
<v Speaker 1>They're called brown Margarita's too soon. Yeah, anyways. The skepticism

674
00:51:39.440 --> 00:51:43.039
<v Speaker 1>of those theories was expressed by the former head of

675
00:51:43.159 --> 00:51:48.840
<v Speaker 1>the Warres Forensic's office, and according to the Journal Constitution Report,

676
00:51:49.000 --> 00:51:53.000
<v Speaker 1>the former head of the Warres Forensic Office said he

677
00:51:53.079 --> 00:51:56.599
<v Speaker 1>never saw any evidence of missing organs in the bodies

678
00:51:56.639 --> 00:51:58.800
<v Speaker 1>he examined when he worked on the cases.

679
00:51:59.599 --> 00:52:02.079
<v Speaker 2>Fuck douchebag, I swear.

680
00:52:03.000 --> 00:52:06.039
<v Speaker 1>Next thing he's gonna say is Marilyn Monroe took pills.

681
00:52:06.519 --> 00:52:07.320
<v Speaker 2>Like what.

682
00:52:08.119 --> 00:52:12.639
<v Speaker 1>But so, as of today, women continue to disappear and

683
00:52:13.280 --> 00:52:18.639
<v Speaker 1>inconceivable piles of bones continue to surface, all while residents

684
00:52:18.679 --> 00:52:22.280
<v Speaker 1>continue to discover evidence at crime scenes after police have

685
00:52:22.360 --> 00:52:27.760
<v Speaker 1>declared that thorough searches have been conducted quote unquote.

686
00:52:28.679 --> 00:52:29.920
<v Speaker 2>Though there have.

687
00:52:30.119 --> 00:52:33.880
<v Speaker 1>Been numerous arrests over the years, no one has been

688
00:52:33.920 --> 00:52:38.159
<v Speaker 1>formally charged with any of the hundreds of unsolved homicides,

689
00:52:38.559 --> 00:52:41.800
<v Speaker 1>as to be expected, though, right, but I mean at

690
00:52:41.880 --> 00:52:45.360
<v Speaker 1>least In February two thousand and four, Mexican federal police

691
00:52:45.440 --> 00:52:49.760
<v Speaker 1>arrested two drug cartel members who said they may have

692
00:52:49.920 --> 00:52:53.559
<v Speaker 1>been involved in the mass murder of twelve people in

693
00:52:53.599 --> 00:52:57.239
<v Speaker 1>a home in Juarez. What I find interesting about that, though,

694
00:52:57.440 --> 00:53:02.039
<v Speaker 1>is that there were also thirteen state police officers suspected

695
00:53:02.079 --> 00:53:07.519
<v Speaker 1>of being in complicity with those crimes. So it seems

696
00:53:07.519 --> 00:53:12.119
<v Speaker 1>as though in Warez, life is cheap and justice is

697
00:53:12.199 --> 00:53:16.760
<v Speaker 1>for sale to the highest bidder, which may be Kamala Harris.

698
00:53:17.719 --> 00:53:25.840
<v Speaker 1>She's down there placing her bid. But in other news,

699
00:53:25.840 --> 00:53:28.960
<v Speaker 1>on the US side of the border, in nineteen eighty five,

700
00:53:29.559 --> 00:53:35.719
<v Speaker 1>a ranch of a slightly different variety was uncovered in Caerville, Texas,

701
00:53:36.320 --> 00:53:40.320
<v Speaker 1>not far from Johnson City, Texas, the birthplace and childhood

702
00:53:40.360 --> 00:53:44.480
<v Speaker 1>home of President Lyndon Bitch Johnson you remember him, right,

703
00:53:45.119 --> 00:53:48.880
<v Speaker 1>who is also a mass murder of sorts via contract killers.

704
00:53:49.880 --> 00:53:53.440
<v Speaker 1>One such victim we discussed being old Henry Marshall. But

705
00:53:53.599 --> 00:53:58.960
<v Speaker 1>so anyways, the ranch, run by a family of German immigrants,

706
00:53:59.400 --> 00:54:04.159
<v Speaker 1>was found to be holding seventy five human slaves. Again

707
00:54:04.320 --> 00:54:08.639
<v Speaker 1>nothing to see here, folks, Many of them acquired when

708
00:54:08.679 --> 00:54:12.800
<v Speaker 1>they were young teenagers, and the property was patrolled by

709
00:54:13.000 --> 00:54:16.920
<v Speaker 1>armguards who kept the slaves chained together and routinely tortured

710
00:54:16.960 --> 00:54:20.960
<v Speaker 1>them by sticking electric cattle prods to their tongues and

711
00:54:21.039 --> 00:54:25.320
<v Speaker 1>their dicks and balls, and whenever one of the slaves

712
00:54:25.400 --> 00:54:28.760
<v Speaker 1>was killed, the body was burned to dispose of the evidence.

713
00:54:29.440 --> 00:54:33.360
<v Speaker 1>And get this shit, the Texas Rangers eventually raided the

714
00:54:33.400 --> 00:54:39.880
<v Speaker 1>property with fucking clenched teeth because after routinely ignoring all

715
00:54:39.920 --> 00:54:43.440
<v Speaker 1>the fucking steady reports of high strangeness happening at the ranch,

716
00:54:44.119 --> 00:54:48.159
<v Speaker 1>they had to grin and bear the fact that they

717
00:54:48.199 --> 00:54:52.360
<v Speaker 1>were now going to have to search the ranch. And

718
00:54:52.440 --> 00:54:55.639
<v Speaker 1>it took the state of Texas almost two full years

719
00:54:55.639 --> 00:54:58.960
<v Speaker 1>to bring the case to trial because they were complicit

720
00:54:59.440 --> 00:55:04.039
<v Speaker 1>in the happenings at the ranch. When it was all

721
00:55:04.079 --> 00:55:07.239
<v Speaker 1>over with, the rancher and one of his sons received

722
00:55:07.480 --> 00:55:13.760
<v Speaker 1>extraordinarily light sentences for their crimes, fifteen years for one

723
00:55:14.000 --> 00:55:18.800
<v Speaker 1>and fourteen for the other. Another indicted son was.

724
00:55:18.920 --> 00:55:21.239
<v Speaker 2>Acquitted and walked away a free man.

725
00:55:22.280 --> 00:55:27.079
<v Speaker 1>I'd expect nothing less right from our justice system, and

726
00:55:27.400 --> 00:55:32.000
<v Speaker 1>a media disinformation campaign portrayed the entire affair as a

727
00:55:32.119 --> 00:55:37.480
<v Speaker 1>trumped up case, but investigative journalist Gordon Thomas said that

728
00:55:37.559 --> 00:55:41.400
<v Speaker 1>the trial transcript indicated that it was nothing even close

729
00:55:41.480 --> 00:55:46.480
<v Speaker 1>to what they were trying to convince people of. Thomas

730
00:55:46.519 --> 00:55:50.880
<v Speaker 1>also wrote about another ranch in southern California that evidence

731
00:55:50.920 --> 00:55:56.920
<v Speaker 1>collected from a variety of sources indicates caters to powerful pedophiles.

732
00:55:57.800 --> 00:56:01.559
<v Speaker 1>The ranch is located and meetly adjacent to one of

733
00:56:01.599 --> 00:56:05.159
<v Speaker 1>the numerous US military bases that pepper the southern half

734
00:56:05.320 --> 00:56:10.599
<v Speaker 1>of California, and the fucking property actually has a rather

735
00:56:10.719 --> 00:56:16.840
<v Speaker 1>ominous history. It previously served as a concentration camp for

736
00:56:17.079 --> 00:56:22.039
<v Speaker 1>Japanese Americans during World War Two, and later as a

737
00:56:22.360 --> 00:56:27.760
<v Speaker 1>deprogramming center for returning Korean War veterans who said they

738
00:56:27.840 --> 00:56:33.639
<v Speaker 1>had been brainwashed, and according to witness statements, children from

739
00:56:33.639 --> 00:56:37.440
<v Speaker 1>around the country have been abducted and transported to this

740
00:56:37.599 --> 00:56:44.159
<v Speaker 1>covert location, never to be heard from again. Once there,

741
00:56:44.440 --> 00:56:48.199
<v Speaker 1>they are held as slaves to feed the depraved desires

742
00:56:48.199 --> 00:56:53.000
<v Speaker 1>of powerful, well connected pedophiles who torture, abuse, and at

743
00:56:53.039 --> 00:56:57.519
<v Speaker 1>times kill these young victims. One man who may have

744
00:56:57.679 --> 00:57:01.039
<v Speaker 1>worked at the ranch, according to the reports, with serial

745
00:57:01.119 --> 00:57:06.880
<v Speaker 1>killer Leonard Lake, who I had actually never heard about

746
00:57:07.000 --> 00:57:14.440
<v Speaker 1>until doing this research. But you know, it's these type

747
00:57:14.519 --> 00:57:17.199
<v Speaker 1>of episodes that make me not want to tell people

748
00:57:17.239 --> 00:57:20.719
<v Speaker 1>in my immediate friends and a family friends circle.

749
00:57:20.480 --> 00:57:21.559
<v Speaker 2>About my podcast.

750
00:57:22.199 --> 00:57:24.880
<v Speaker 1>It's not to diminish my work or anything. It's just

751
00:57:25.000 --> 00:57:30.000
<v Speaker 1>heavy and it's dark, but still very important. But my

752
00:57:30.440 --> 00:57:35.440
<v Speaker 1>fucking sister is the worst for it because she'll tell

753
00:57:35.519 --> 00:57:38.960
<v Speaker 1>people she fucking goes to church with that her sister

754
00:57:39.039 --> 00:57:42.880
<v Speaker 1>has this amazing podcast and shit, and I'm like, oh God,

755
00:57:43.559 --> 00:57:46.440
<v Speaker 1>please don't say anything else.

756
00:57:47.079 --> 00:57:50.159
<v Speaker 2>She's like, no, they're real open minded.

757
00:57:50.960 --> 00:57:55.239
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, sister, just because they say that doesn't mean

758
00:57:55.280 --> 00:57:59.960
<v Speaker 1>it's true, you know, And then when they listen to it,

759
00:58:00.480 --> 00:58:04.079
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna think differently about the both of us, not

760
00:58:04.320 --> 00:58:07.280
<v Speaker 1>just me, So fucking be careful who you blast that

761
00:58:07.320 --> 00:58:13.000
<v Speaker 1>shit too. I was actually talking with my boyfriend about

762
00:58:13.920 --> 00:58:17.840
<v Speaker 1>that very thing. It was a while ago, and he said,

763
00:58:18.360 --> 00:58:24.360
<v Speaker 1>somebody I can't remember who, but when people who don't

764
00:58:24.400 --> 00:58:28.920
<v Speaker 1>know he has a podcast, ask how we met, he

765
00:58:29.039 --> 00:58:33.679
<v Speaker 1>says tender, which is hilarious. But it got me to

766
00:58:33.800 --> 00:58:36.400
<v Speaker 1>thinking about what I'm gonna say to the people who

767
00:58:36.440 --> 00:58:39.800
<v Speaker 1>we meet who we don't want to know about our shows.

768
00:58:40.119 --> 00:58:44.039
<v Speaker 1>And I'm really considering making up some shit, just like

769
00:58:44.159 --> 00:58:47.639
<v Speaker 1>different shit every time. All you two are so cute,

770
00:58:47.679 --> 00:58:50.079
<v Speaker 1>how did you meet. Well, I volunteer at the nursing

771
00:58:50.119 --> 00:58:53.639
<v Speaker 1>home where his grandma lives, and he walked in on

772
00:58:53.719 --> 00:58:56.840
<v Speaker 1>me feeding her pizza roles and the rest is history.

773
00:58:58.000 --> 00:59:02.760
<v Speaker 1>Or like like, uh, he backed up into me in

774
00:59:02.840 --> 00:59:05.880
<v Speaker 1>the parking lot of pay Less, totally blew my back

775
00:59:05.920 --> 00:59:08.360
<v Speaker 1>out in more ways than one, if you know what

776
00:59:08.400 --> 00:59:13.599
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying, Like, I'm just gonna make some shit up,

777
00:59:13.719 --> 00:59:17.960
<v Speaker 1>like uh, yeah, I'm a nurse at the free clinic

778
00:59:18.039 --> 00:59:21.480
<v Speaker 1>where he came in with the scorching case of hemorrhoids

779
00:59:21.519 --> 00:59:22.519
<v Speaker 1>and I helped him.

780
00:59:22.400 --> 00:59:27.000
<v Speaker 2>Out ask for my number why I was fondling his asshole.

781
00:59:27.920 --> 00:59:29.599
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I'm gonna get creative with.

782
00:59:29.639 --> 00:59:32.760
<v Speaker 1>This shit because uh, and he's just gonna have to

783
00:59:32.840 --> 00:59:36.199
<v Speaker 1>go with it, and hopefully he one ups me because

784
00:59:36.519 --> 00:59:38.679
<v Speaker 1>you know, he's actually way funnier than I am.

785
00:59:38.840 --> 00:59:41.280
<v Speaker 2>And I'll let him come up with his own stories.

786
00:59:41.360 --> 00:59:49.639
<v Speaker 1>But anyways, hashtag conspiracy power couple. This shit is dark,

787
00:59:49.719 --> 00:59:52.119
<v Speaker 1>and I understand that it's dark. I understand that it's

788
00:59:52.119 --> 00:59:55.079
<v Speaker 1>hard for people to digest. I understand that it's hard

789
00:59:55.079 --> 00:59:58.159
<v Speaker 1>for people to listen to. But it's so very real

790
00:59:58.199 --> 01:00:01.800
<v Speaker 1>and it's so very important and I'm trying to get

791
01:00:01.840 --> 01:00:06.480
<v Speaker 1>the message out. I'm a humble servant in the quest

792
01:00:06.559 --> 01:00:09.440
<v Speaker 1>for truth, and I hope that you all continue to

01:00:13.440 --> 01:00:15.079
<v Speaker 2>That's the most important part.

796
01:00:16.960 --> 01:00:19.360
<v Speaker 1>We are going to, as I said, take a little

797
01:00:19.480 --> 01:00:22.400
<v Speaker 1>bris akee for the month of October, and then we're

<v Speaker 3>tense and nervous, and I can't relax. I can't sleep
