They didn't really confirm whether the incident when she was a teenager was real or not, did they? I know the one cop asked her if it was BS too. I'm under the assumption that was real and fucked her up for life mentally.
She claimed it was legit. If not, the rape as a child was probably more than enough to cause long term issues (red bandana used in the act when she was a kid)
I feel like an asshole getting some of these for free, been meaning to sign up just to support their work
This is fucked up.... https://magazine.atavist.com/the-li...y-chance-cottage-hospitals-nurse-tiger-babies
Article was kind of a letdown in that they took a deal so we never found out the details of the heist and how they did it (planning, target selection etc)
I found the theory that they didn't even know what they were stealing until they got there, to be strange.
Don't even know what to make of this story. Got pretty weird toward the end with all of the theories. I'd probably bet on him stumbling upon some drug thing and got murdered for it.
Has this old ass article ever been posted itt? I'm assuming it has, but just in case. An article about catfishing before it was a coined term. https://www.laweekly.com/the-life-and-death-of-jesse-james
Why not have her actually transfer the money and tell the "hit man" to do the job before arresting her?
I would love to read a longform piece on what it's like for each side's "people" when two celebrities start dating. Ring a bell for anybody?
This is incredible, sad and infuriating.... https://magazine.atavist.com/the-snitch-fbi-scott-kimball-informant-killer-colorado/
Insane to imagine how that must feel. "We know who murdered your whole family and we can/will do exactly nothing about it"
It’s amazing to me how many supposedly progressive people in Oregon believe he should never be released. yeah, there is no reason for him to be in prison at this point beyond retribution.
What are we doing with a prison? Is it a pound of flesh or is it really for rehabilitation? Because there's nothing in any of these articles I read about prisons to point to rehabilitation.
WTF The lawsuit says that after she decided to leave because of the host’s bizarre behavior, he followed her into the studio unit she’d rented, locked the door, held her in a chair against her will, and masturbated in front of her, ejaculating into a trash can. As Lapayowker fled, according to the complaint, the host said, “Don’t forget to leave me a positive review on Airbnb.” The man, who said the encounter was consensual, wasn’t charged.
Super excited to read this from TM: https://www.texasmonthly.com/being-texan/the-resurrection-of-bass-reeves/
This is a tough but illuminating read. https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2021/09/twenty-years-gone-911-bobby-mcilvaine/619490/
Read this last night. Worth the time. A great window into unexplainable grief which I think as humans, and particularly Americans, is something we do not process or verbalize well at all.
100 percent that, but parts, especially the end, definitely gave me some perspective on parenthood that I often do not have when dealing with my kids.
I usually don't go for stuff like that but for some reason I opened that yesterday. Definitely don't regret it, probably the best thing I've read this year
