Worth Killing For?

~*Warning Graphic Photos*~

Colleen Slemmer, 19, was a pretty blonde girl that was a student at Job Corps in TN along with Christa Pike, 18.

~*Colleen Slemmer*~

Christa Pikes had a boyfriend there by the name of Tadaryl Shipp, 17. Christa thought that Colleen was coming onto Tadaryl and was pretty upset.

~*Christa Pike*~

Christa told Colleen that they should go for a walk. That walk was going to be the last for Colleen.

Christa turned on Colleen stating that she was flirting with her boyfriend Tadaryl and coming on to him. Colleen was pulled to the ground and while being held down by Tadaryl and another one of Christa's friend, Christa decided to use a box cutter and start cutting on Colleen. There was also a mini meat cleaver involved.

Colleen's body was all cut up and Tadaryl carved a pentagram on Colleen's chest. Also, the box cutter was used to slit the throat of Colleen over and over again just like her body. Colleen's neck wound was 6 inches long and so deep that you could see muscle. After all of the torture was over, Christa smashed Colleen's skull in with a piece of concrete and took a piece for a souvenir.

Christa was the youngest person on death row at age 21. She is now 35. She is still on death row and was convicted of attempted first degree murder on August 12, 2004 for trying to strangle another inmate.

It was a demon seed and it had to die. The vessel, it's Mother, had to die too. This was the thought of the boyfriend.

 ~*Delmer Anholt*~ 

Delmer and Tara began dating when she was 15 and he was 16. They met through one of Tara's relatives. They both lived in St. Johns, Oregon, but Tara's family was getting ready to move away from their current city. Tara told them that she wasn't moving, but staying there in St. Johns. Delmer's family agreed to let Tara move in with them, so she could finish high school at her current school. Her parents agreed, not after some long thought though.


Delmer started getting into trouble when he hit the 7th grade, to which he started smoking pot and cigarettes. He wasn't a very good student in high school either, and got kicked out. Delmer never graduated. One day Delmer threatened to kill his sister, and this landed him in a detention center. He stayed there for a few months. He was also sent to a school for troubled teens. Also, when he was with Tara he got popped for first degree theft, was on probation and got in trouble again. He then had to spend 14 months in OCI. Tara was right there waiting for him. Being a faithful girlfriend, she would go see him any chance that she had between her waitress jobs and school.


While Tara and Delmer were together, they started sleeping together. This led to unplanned, and aborted pregnancies. Three aborted by professionals and one by Delmer. Delmer would make Tara go and get the abortions. Tara wanted to keep her fourth baby, but Delmer thought it belonged to another man.

Delmer got into an argument with his relatives. The argument was about an inheritance from his Father. Delmer and Tara packed up and decided to go to the family cabin in Long Beach, Washington. They had to hitch-hike along the way, being picked up by two motorists. These rides were confirmed by the drivers themselves.When the second ride dropped Delmer and Tara off, they were in the city of Scappoose in Oregon.

The couple found a barn that had a mattress, some chairs and a table. Delmer stated to the police that the thought of killing Tara was in his mind at that time in the barn, but he lost his knife. Police later found the knife laying next to the mattress. Delmer and Tara decided to leave the barn and they found themselves in inside of a cemetery that was on the opposite side of the street than the barn.

While in the cemetery, Delmer told Tara to confess to God and Jesus. He asked her to do this, because he felt that the baby she was carrying was not his, but of another man, and was a demon seed. Tara refused to confess stating that it was his baby not anyone else's. Since Tara refused to confess, Delmer decided to take care of the demon seed himself.

He didn't do it quickly by any means. He tortured Tara. His hatred was towards the baby, but Tara being the vessel, had to endure the pain since she was still alive. He didn't think to kill Tara and then the baby, oh no, he was heartless. He had tied Tara's ankles to her neck using slip knots. This would make it so that if Tara would struggle it the knots would tighten around her neck and choke her. Tara was eight and a half months pregnant. Delmer drove ten penny spikes, 8-10 inches long and dull at the ends, all the way into Tara's abdomen. Delmer then dug his thumbs into her eye sockets and was moving them around until one of her eyeballs came out of their socket. The eyeballs were gouged way down deep into her sinuses. The eyeball socket situation was witnessed by a police officer that came upon the scene of the torture. Tara's nose was completely cut off. She also had severe burns on her vagina and buttocks. A metal spike was driven into Tara's right pelvic region, and a fishing pole extruded from her vagina. Her buttocks was also placed upon, to which protruded through her flesh, two very large rusty nails. Also, two pieces of fishing rods, and a flare was found in the same place. Tara was alive for most of this torture. By the time the cop showed up, she was dead. The torture also induced labor, but with all the spikes driven into the abdomen, and all the foreign obejcts inside Tara's body, the baby couldn't make it to the vaginal canal and either drowned or suffocated. This all happened on February 14, 1982.

According to Oregon law, Delmer could not be charged with the baby's murder, due to the baby not being born. Delmer Anholt Jr., on May 11, 1982, was convicted for the torture murder of Tara Lee McCarty. He was given life without parole. He is currently in the Oregon State Penitentiary.

"For me, life without killing is like life without food for you"

Born on April 9, 1974, Alexander Yuryevich "Sasha" Pichushkin was a well known chess player in Moscow's Bitsevsky Park. He described his first kill like the feeling of a first love. He wanted to outdo the number of murders that Andrei Chikalito had committed, 52, during 1982 to 1994. He is also known in Russia as the chessboard killer. Why the chessboard killer you ask? Well because he would mark off a square every time he would kill someone.

Alexander was said to be a very nice and friendly young man. He was found by a neighbor, crying in a stairwell where he lived, because of the death of his cat. Alexander lived with his aging Mother in the flat that he was raised in from birth. He worked in a nearby supermarket. His Mother stated that she noticed a change in her dear boy, when at the age 4 he was hit on the head with a swing. She also stated that he didn't handle the sudden death of his Grandfather and of a pet dog that Alexander had. Alexander was said to have anger issues over the sudden death of his Grandfather and was royally  pissed off for "abandoning" him just like his Dad did when he was younger.

When he turned 18, yeah that's when you are considered an adult and no longer an innocent child, he made his first kill. He had a crush, and this crush had a boyfriend, well not for long, Alexander took care of that. The boy was found in his apartment, dead of course. The chick he was in love with was also found dead some time later, authorities later thought it could have been Alexander that committed this murder. This was the last murder for Alexander until 2001.

The year of 2001, Alexander decided to go ahead and start murdering again, which spanned over five years to 2006 when he was caught. Alexander would go play chess in the park and then invite his opponents to go and have a drink with him. The drink of choice, um let's not try to hard, Vodka. Usually the opponents were elderly homeless men, that when drunk would be hit over the head with a hammer, and then being the environmentalist that he thought he could have been, he would stick the vodka bottles into the victim's skulls just to make sure that they were not going to live after being hit over the head with a hammer repeatedly.

Alexander did kill three women and one child. One woman was found to have stakes driven through her skull and even around her eyes. A female was the last of his victims. However, most of his victims, as stated above, were that of elderly homeless men. He stated that he would strike from behind so he would not get blood on his clothes. He also stated that some deaths were not the result of a hammer to the head, but throwing them into the sewers under the park. He stated that he felt like the Father to all his victims, for when he killed them he opened a door for them into another world.

~*Not sure if this is the one with the stakes in her skull, but was one of his victims*~

On October 24, 2007, Alexander was convicted of 48 of 49 murders, and 3 attempted murders. He did ask the court to add 11 more murders to his count, which brought the total of murders to 60 and the 3 surviving victims. Needless to say, he wasn't able to mark off all the squares on his chessboard. He was given life in prison, but his first 15 years to be served in solitary confinement. There was some moratorium established in 1996, so capital punishment in Russia was abolished. This man will die in prison.

William here nor Hare

Mr. Burke was originally from Ireland. He was a militia servant there in Ireland, and well, he really got sick of it so he decided to leave his wife and kids and move to Scotland in or around 1817. He decided to work for the Navy for the Union Canal. He then went all cool and stuff and decided that he was way too cool for the Union Canal and started doing some cobbling, a little bit of the baking, did some weaving and was a laborer type of guy. When he was in the Navy he met a new chick, Helen M'Dougal.

~*Burke*~

Mr. Hare also came from Ireland, and he too moved to Scotland. He chilled and was working as a laborer as well, though he stayed being that for a minute and wasn't all up in changing jobs like Burke. Mr. Hare then moved over to Edinburgh where he met some dude named Logue. Mr. Logue had a lodging house. Logue died and Hare married Logue's widow Margaret. She continued chill and keep the lodging house running. Mr. Hare worked in the canal.

~*Hare*~

Oh yeah there is a movie by the name of Burke and Hare. Just FYI.
Burke and Helen moved into the area where the lodging house was kept by Margaret. They all became the bestest of best friends. Yay! They were such good friends that they all became body sellers and murderers.

The first body to be sold was someone that died of natural causes that was all chillaxing up in the lodging house. He owed rent so instead of filling the coffin with the body, they filled it with bark and took the body for a ride to Edinburgh University. They sold it to some famous anatomist by the name of Dr. Knox. The next victim was some sick dude that they got drunk with whiskey and then suffocated him.

~*Dr. Knox*~

Well they ran out of tenants, so they ventured out. What's in your wallet? I digress. They found some chick collecting pensions and invited her inside of the lodging house. They too got her drunk and then suffocated her. They got paid for her body as well.

A chick was getting arrested by the police, but Burke claimed that he knew her and they released her to Burke's custody. Her body showed up at the medial school just hours later. Then an elderly chick and her grandson, that was blind, were the next ones to go. They OD'd the Gma on painkillers, but Hare took the young blind boy and stretched him over his knee and then broke his back, no not the movie, literally broke the poor kids back. They were eventually sold to the Dr.

They went after prostitutes and a mentally handicap kid. When they sold the prostitute and boys body to the Dr., some of the Dr.'s students said that they recognized the bodies. The last victim, Marjory, was lured to the house by Burke. Burke was not able to kill the young lady right away, for there were two lodgers at the home at the time. When the lodgers, Ann and James Gray left for a night out, the neighbors stated they heard a struggle coming from the house.

Ann tried to go to her bed to get her stockings, but became suspicious when Burke would not let her go near the bed. The Gray's were left alone in the house later that night, and of course went straight for the bed. They found the body of Marjory. They ran off to tell the police, but ran into Burke's female companion, M'Dougal who tried to shut them up by bribing them. They totally refused and went about to go fetch the fellow officers.

Burke and Hare removed the body of Marjory, however because Burke and M'Dougal's stories didn't add up, they were arrested. Then someone said something about the Dr. and his shinanigans, and the police showed up to the medical center and found Marjory's body, to which Mr. Gray identified. Mr. and Mrs. Hare were arrested long long after. The killing portion lasted about a year.

So there really wasn't much evidence against the four peeps, so some Lord told Hare that he would gather immunity if he totally snitched on Burke. So guess what? Hare turned on Burke and Burke was hanged and Hare walked. Burke was totally dissected publicly at the medical college. Burke's blood was used by the dissecting professor to write "This is written with the blood of William Burke, who was hanged at Edinburgh. This blood was taken from his head." There is a museum at the college where Burke's skeleton, death mask and items made from his skin are on display. Yummy!

The two chicks, M'Dougal and Mrs. Hare, went free. M'Dougal died in or around 1868. Mrs. Hare pretty much vanished off the face of the Earth. Burke was said to have been thrown into a lime pit and became a blind beggar, but that has not been proven.

The Dr. went free due to Burke stating that the Dr. had no idea about the origin of the bodies that he was buying. He continued to buy bodies from "body snatchers" but some act called the Anatomy act passed and he became less popular and died at a Cancer hospital in 1862.

The Horror!

Meet Fred. Fred grew up in a house of incest. Fred's Father liked to have sexual relations with his daughters. Fred's Father also learned him the ways of bestiality. Fred's Mother sexual molested him since the age of 12. In 1958 Fred fell of his motorcycle and broke some bones and received skull fractures. Fred was never the same after that, having an abundance fits of rage. Fred was convicted of molesting a thirteen year old girl, and that is when his family disowned Fred. Daddy always said "Do what you want, just don't get caught doing it." Fred didn't listen.

Meet Rosemary, who also came from a family where incest was the way to live and who at age sixteen, moved in with Fred and then gave birth to his child when she was seventeen. Fred went to prison for theft, and at that time Rosemary took it upon herself to kill Charmaine who was Fred's stepdaughter from his first marriage, because when Rosemary would beat her relentlessly, she refused to cry. Rosemary stated that Charmaine's Mother had come and retrieved her, however, when Charmaine's Mother actually did come to retrieve Charmaine, she also went missing.

The sweetest happiest couple did finally get married and they also had a second daughter. Sweet lovely husband Fred told Rosemary to go into prostitution. Rosemary ended up having seven children, three of them were mixed. The happy couple moved into a bigger house, and the top floor was turned into a sex room for Rosemary to perform her tricks. There were holes so Fred could watch and there was a "put on the red light" outside so the kids knew if that was on do not come a knocking dammit! Mama's busy! Fred would even allow Rosemary's dad to come and get it on with her.


These two loved the BDSM scene with violent sex, however, it had to be on young girls. It is sad to report that Fred's first child, Anna Marie age 8, was his first victim. Fred would brutally rape and torture her while Rosemary held her down. She was told that she would be beaten horrifically if she told anyone.

Next was a seventeen year old nanny that they hired, she escaped the torture and turned the couple in, however they were just slapped with a fine.

For five years the couple would brutally torture, rape, murder and then dismember the bodies of teenage girls. Fingers and toes would be removed before the bodies were buried in the torture cellar. Not every victim was a murder victim however, and when you leave people alive, someone is going to tell about the happenings at the home.

~*Cellar*~

Detective Constable Hazel Savage, was the main person that lead the investigation at Fred and Rosemary's house. Stuff was found that indicated child abuse, also porn was found. Both were arrested and Rosemary tried to commit suicide, but one of her sons found her and revived her. A warrant was issued for the property and bodied galore were found, some decapitated. They were charged with twelve counts of murder. Rosemary tried to put all the blame on Fred, saying she was the victim, but the authorities were having none of it. In 1995 Fred committed suicide by hanging himself with bedsheets. In 1995 Rosemary was found guilty of ten counts of murder. She was given a minimum of twenty five years, but then was given a life sentence.

The House of Horrors was torn down and turned into a path going into the town center.

~*Walk way to the Town Center*~

No Sparkly Vampire Here

~*Disclaimer: Graphic Details*~

~*They just don't*~

In 1560, Elizabeth was born into a rich family, never had a want in the world. She was a very beautiful child. She had kings, prime ministers and cardinals for relatives. She also had those relatives liked to have fun with black arts, being sluts, being lesbians *totally frowned upon in that day in age.* These people knew how to party and had the royalties in which to do so.

 ~*portrait of Countess Elizabeth (Erzsébet)*~

When Elizabeth was 15, she became the wife of Count Ferencz Nadasdy. Nadasdy had a reputation of being a fierce warrior and went by the nickname of “The Black Hero of Hungary.” They got married and moved to a kick ass castle that was surrounded by farmlands to which were worked by farmhands that were very suspicious. The castle was called Castle Csejthe, which chilled in the Carpathian Mountains.

 ~*Count Ferencz Nadasdy*~

Since Elizabeth married a Count, she became Countess Elizabeth. She wasn’t very happy with her married life. She wasn’t happy that she was very isolated. Her husband would come and go literally. Wham bam thank you Ma’am, now I am off to go fight. They produced 4 children. Yeah she totally turned into a slut, invited men over all the time to sleep with. She even established herself as a cruel mistress, laughing at the fact that peasants were afraid of her.

Elizabeth was into torturing her female slaves. She would beat them and use cruel methods taught to her by her lesbian aunt. She would also use the numerous torture tools that her husband would bring back from his adventures.

Elizabeth’s husband died in 1600, she gave her kids away to relatives, and totally turned psycho. Elizabeth was always conceited. She was very vain and self-centered. She was now 40 and saw her looks declining. It was said at this time, she had a taste for blood. One of her maids totally pissed her off, so Elizabeth smacked her, blood from the maid fell on Elizabeth’s hand, and when she went to wipe it away, she swore that her skin was smoother. So the maid was killed, her blood put into the bathtub and Elizabeth bathed in it.

So for the next ten years, loyal accomplices would bring unmarried maidens to Elizabeth. They would help Elizabeth extract the blood from the bodies by using gruesome methods. Fingers were cut off, bodies were beat until they were as black as night, veins were slit with scissors, red hot pokers were shoved into mouths and noses, mouths pulled on so hard the sides split, girls were stabbed all over with needles, flesh torn open with pincers, the skin between the fingers were slit open. Even when she was sick, she would make her servants bring girls to her beside to torture. Girls were chained up in the dungeon and fattened up because the Countess though this would give them more blood. She also made the girls perform deviant sexual acts, if they didn’t react or reacted in disgust, it was off with their head or other body parts. Some girls were made to strip flesh off of their own bodies, or some were shoved in small cages with spikes.

 ~*I could have totally escaped from that*~

When you kill peasant chicks, no one cared at that time, excuses were made. However, when you start killing Aristocratic chicks, it gets noticed. So when the Countess killed a daughter of an important man, and then tried to stage it as a suicide, it was noticed. The King then okay’d the raid of the castle and of course many body parts, bones and bodies were found. The Countess was charged, and convicted, of 80 counts of murder, though a letter from the king indicated there could have been at least 300 victims. Also, there was a “diary” that the Countess kept that named and detailed information on more than 650 females.

 

The Countess was sentenced to stay in her rooms at the castle, with all entrances and all windows walled up. She could not be executed because of the family she was born into. There were tiny slits made, however, for food to be passed through to her and for air. The Countess died when she was 53-54.

Final "resting" place

 

You come upon a one room building. The room is a large room, and is separated by a canvas curtain. This building serves as a general store, an inn and living quarters for the family that runs both businesses. Though this building wasn't much, it was a place to get food and to lay your head if you were in need of rest.

~*The Bender home, inn and general store*~

The Bender family moved to Kansas in 1872. Mr. Bender, Mrs. Bender and their son didn't speak much to other people. An occasional hello to fellow locals while walking along the local road or selling the locals some canned goods, would be the only conversation that happened between most members of the family and the other people.

  ~*Mr. Bender, Mrs. Bender and the Son, John Jr.*~

Then there was Kate, the daughter. She was beautiful, outgoing and aggressive. She was tall and fair haired, and men were attracted to her because of this. She claimed to be a psychic medium who would talk to the dead. She also claimed that she could cure sicknesses and maladies, for a small fee of course. Men were just dying to see her again, literally. The family though, wasn't a true family. The only ones that were related were Mrs. Bender and Kate.

~*Kate Bender*~

Are you a wealthy comer to this place of rest, meals or portal to the other world? Go ahead and sit down in that chair, yeah the one with the back to the canvas. Let me place this plate of food down in front of you, when you go down to get that bite, WHAM, a sledgehammer to the top of your head! See, Kate's Father or her Brother, would be waiting behind that curtain, sneak up on you when you were not expecting it, with the thirst of murder in their minds. Though it has been said the amount that was gained from the murders was only $4,600, so it was widely speculated that the Benders actually killed for the thrill of it.

~*Bloodied hammers found at the location of the murders*~

Once the person was sure to be dead, their body would be dragged behind the curtain, stripped of everything, and then find it's place in the cellar. The body would remain in the cellar, until it would find a place upon the prairie to be buried.

The Bender's, however, murdered a Dr., and that was the end of their time in Kansas. When the Doctor's brother figured out that his brother died at the Bender's place of business, he went to talk to the local Sheriff. The Sheriff sent some deputies, and even some fellow local men, to the Bender property only to find that the Benders had vacated the house.

The men came upon a trap door that was nailed shut. When the door was finally pried open, the dried clotty blood was all over the dirt floor and the pungent smell of the home was very overpowering. That does happen when there is dried blood just laying around. No bodies were found under or around the home. The men took to the orchard and the prairie, where they would find more than two dozen bodies. They say that there may have been many many more undiscovered bodies that were not found.

~*Digging up the bodies*~  

Vengeful people set out to find the Benders, but it seemed that they vanished into thin air, never to be seen again. Are they perhaps part of the ghostly apparitions that appear at the site of the grisly murders? Or are those just the lost souls that have yet to be found?

Pictures found here

Lizzie Borden took an axe or was it a hatchet?

~*Disclaimer: explicit photos*~

The date was Thursday, August 4, 1892, at approximately 11:00 AM at 92 Second Street in Fall River, Massachusetts. It was a hot day that day, reaching well over 100, and it wasn't even noon. On this date, at this address, in this city and state, two bodies were discovered covered massively in blood. Both were struck in the head multiple times, the injuries caused by a hatchet. In the Borden's house, three hatchets were found. One of them had dried cows blood and hair on it. The person being charged with the murders was Lizzie Borden.

~*Lizzie Borden*~

The day before the murders, it is said that Lizzie tried to buy prussic acid from the local drug store. The pharmacist wouldn't provide it to Lizzie because she didn't have a prescription. Abby had stated that she and her husband had been violently ill throughout the night and was concerned about excessive vomiting. Also, Lizzie visited a friend and told her that someone threatened her father and she was worried. Possibly laying out her alibi?

Abby Borden was the step-mother of Lizzie Borden. Abby was killed prior to her husband. Abby suffered fifteen blows to the head from the back, thirteen of them crushed her skull. Not forty whacks as the rhyme states.

~*Abby, Abby with the bed removed, back of her head and her skull*~ 

Andrew Borden was the father of Lizzie Borden. Andrew suffered nineteen blows to the head, not forty one as the rhyme states. All blows were made to his face and head, four of them crushed his skull. One eye was cut in half and his nose was severed. This all happened while he slept on his favorite couch.

 ~*Andrew, the favorite couch, photo from the autopsy and his skull*~

Lizzie stated that she had gone out to the barn to look for something. Some sources say she went to look for some iron some say she was looking for wire to go fishing. However, the police didn't buy it, for when they went to the barn, they saw dust every where and it did not look disturbed by any footprints. Few days later Lizzie was seen by a family friend, Miss Russel, burning her dress stating she had gotten paint on it and that it was useless.


The trial began on June 5, 1893. Lizzie Borden was charged with three counts of murder. One charge for the murder of Andrew Borden, one charge for the murder of Abby Borden and one charge for the murder of both Andrew and Abby. It only lasted for fourteen days, ending on June 20, 1893. Lizzie was found not guilty for the murders of her father and her step-mother.

Lizzie died on June 1, 1927. She was 67 years old dying from complications following a gall bladder surgery. Her sister died nine days later after falling down the stairs at her house. Both sisters were buried together in the family plot.

Today in History

~*Disclaimer: There will be graphic pictures posted. Not for the queasy.*~

 
The scene was bloody and gruesome. Two people lay dead, the result of a viscious murder. One body at the door of the condo, the other by the fence. The bodies, whose throats were slit and their head nearly decapitated, were found at 12:05 a.m. on June 13, 1994.

~*Nicole Simpson at the foot of the stairs & Ron Goldman at the fence to the condo*~

Evidence gathered at the scene of the crime pointed to who we know as, O.J. Simpson. We all know about this case, well most of us do any way. O.J. tried on a leather glove that was saturated in blood, to which it did not fit. I am not sure if it went through the jurors mind that leather shrinks when it becomes wet, and stiffens when covered with blood. Who knows if it did or not, for the famous quote "If the glove doesn't fit, you must acquit" is heard every where every time someone gets away with something.

Money talks and bullshit walks, and in this case both did happen. Fifteen years ago, Mr. O.J. Simpson was acquitted on murder charges that he was facing. In my opinion I do think that O.J. did this, but when you have money and naive "peers" people get away with the most ridiculous stuff. I am glad that the Goldman's filed a civil suite against O.J.. What he did to the families and the kids is just devistating.

Well Mr. O.J. you now sit in jail where you belong, soon to be in prison for the rest of your life, because two years ago today you were found guilty on all counts of armed robbery. Appeals have been denied for you, and with your history, I am not sure if you will ever get out. Karma is a bitch dear sir, and you are getting yours.
