  • In Hong Kong, a disturbing discovery was made inside a plush Hello Kitty doll. In Hawaii, the reasons for Gary Ruby's disappearance were extremely startling, and the reason Judy Southern was ambushed in her house, were probably the most shocking I've come across. Here are three shocking crimes and the insane motives behind why they were committed.

      I know, and this is why I always cringe when I see people post things that say that every decision we make is ours, and it’s not our parents’ fault. Well actually it mostly is because of our parents and our upbringing. If she had been born to loving parents who gave her security, she would not have ended up in that lifestyle and not been desperate for money. She had no chance really, and the monsters who did that to her got off so easily, it makes me sick!

      Didn't the 13/14 yr old girl participate in some of the torture? I thought I heard a part of the story where the gf said, "it was fun." Maybe I got that wrong.
      There's a similar story - I think it also took place in China. A teen girl was tortured by teen boys for a long period of time. She was even held captive at a teens house-- and the parents knew she was there, but did nothing about it. Mike will probably cover it at some point. Just God awful stuff that makes a person nauseous. And I watch a lot of true crime.
      And the prison sentences that the people got in the story Mike shared, were like 20yrs with the possibility of parole?? What?? I thought going to prison in China would be horrible, and you'd be in there forever. Apparently not.

      Forensic Files covered #3 in an episode and Trey Gowdy was the prosecutor in this 24:46 case. The clips of him in action will give you goosebumps. His interview time was also really good.
      But it's. Super case. That dude's in a women's prison now.

I can't imagine the suffering that poor girl endured :( Also as for the girl that told the cops, she would've never told if she wasn't feeling so guilty cause of the terrible shit they had done!! I don't believe in immunity for people involved in such horrific crimes when they physically played a role in the actual abuse of the victim.
