"I just wanted to know what it felt like to kill someone."

Showing disturbed signs from at least the age of 10, 15-year-old Alyssa Bustamante premeditated the murder of her 9-year-old neighbor, Elizabeth Olten, on the 21st of October, 2009 in St. Martins, Missouri.

Alyssa was born to a teenage mother, who has a criminal record for petty crimes, drug possession, and a DUI. Alyssa's father was in prison serving a 10-year sentence for assault. Alyssa was described as a violent, depressed, and angry child, always speaking to her friends about the darker side of life: gothic poetry, cutting herself, numerous suicide attempts, and even stated to one friend "I would love to know how it feels to kill someone." It seemed as if the fantasy wasn't enough and she wanted the real thing, so one Friday evening, while other teenagers were out doing what teens do, Alyssa began to dig two graves.

That opportunity for murder came to fruition 4 days later, when she spotted her neighbor returning home from her friends house. 9-year-old Elizabeth was easily persuaded by the cunning teenager to approach her, and when she did, Alyssa grabbed her, strangled her, slashed her throat and stabbed the child numerous times.

Police have speculated that the reason that Alyssa had dug not one, but two graves, was because she had planned to murder her two younger brothers, but had instead grabbed the opportunity to kill Elizabeth when it presented itself. They feel the YouTube video backs up this theory; she clearly took delight in inflicting pain on her brothers, and can be seen in one of her videos giggling while she encourages her youngest brother to touch an electric fence.

Alyssa was arrested, and charged with first-degree murder in the death of Elizabeth Olten. She appeared in court on November the 17th, 2009, where the judge ruled that she should be tried as an adult, given the grim nature of the crime.

Her diary was confiscated by police and used as evidence, here is one part of her confession in it: "I just f***ing killed someone. I strangled them and slit their throat and stabbed them now they're dead. I don't know how to feel atm [at the moment],".

She later added: "It was ahmazing. As soon as you get over the 'ohmygawd I can't do this' feeling, it's pretty enjoyable. I'm kinda nervous and shaky though right now. Kay, I gotta go to church now...lol."

Alyssa was sentenced to life in prison WITH the possibility of parole. She may yet be out one day. #HistoryLand

💥Alyssa Bustamante💥

• Described by friends as a normal 15 year old girl, sweet and amazing but her online persona revealed a much more sinister side. Bustamante’s virtual alter-ego would foreshadow what would be her most heinous act: the killing of 9 year old Elizabeth Olten.

• Her mother had a long history of drug and alcohol abuse which led to charges and jail time. Her father was also serving jail time for assaul, Alyssa was raised by her grandparents who also took legal custody of three younger siblings.

• Friends said Alyssa would write poetry and regularly attended church at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints where she participated in youth activities.

• 2007 - Alyssa tried to end her life, after spending 10 days at a psychiatric hospital the teen went on anti-depressants. Despite the medications, Alyssa practiced cutting herself several times. Friends said she frequently showed them the scars on her wrists.

• Bustamante’s Twitter talked about how she hated authority. One post read, “Bad decisions make great stories.” She listed her hobbies on YouTube and MySpace as “killing people” and “cutting.” She also posted a YouTube video where she tried to get two of her brothers to try to touch an electric fence.

• October 2009 - Alyssa brought her darkest fantasies to light, only four houses down from her own family home lived 9 year old Elizabeth Olten. Elizabeth regularly came over to play with Alyssa and her siblings and on the night she was murdered her mother shared how she had cried and pleaded to go and play there. 5pm was the last time her mother saw her alive, when she hadn't returned by 6pm she knew something was wrong.

• FBI agents questioned Alyssa and seized her diary, they found a shallow hole behind Alyssa’s house and the teenager told the FBI she just liked to dig holes. Later in the investigation a shallow grave covered with leaves behind the house was where Elizabeth’s body was recovered.

• Even though her family and friends were shocked and thought she was a great person, her diary entries revealed something much darker. Alyssa had tried to cover up the entry by blotting out the blue ink but investigators were able to unveil the original writing in which Bustamante talks about the euphoria she felt after killing Elizabeth.

“I just f***ing killed someone. I strangled them and slit their throat and stabbed them now they’re dead. I don’t know how to feel atm. It was ahmazing. As soon as you get over the ohmygawd I can’t do this feeling, it’s pretty enjoyable. I’m kinda nervous and shaky though right now. Kay, I gotta go to church now…lol.”

• A few weeks before her first-degree murder trial (2012) over two years after the murder, Alyssa accepted a plea deal to the lesser charge of second-degree murder to avoid the death penalty. As part of the plea deal, she may get out of jail in 30 years on parole.

The capture of brave Russian officer Rosinski

The capture of brave Russian officer Rosinski This is a shocking image and I apologize in advance for sharing it, but here’s one that truly got to me… in Belarus, 1918, after WWI had already ended, the brave Russian officer Rosinski was captured by the Bolsheviks. The Bolsheviks tortured the captain, likely to get information out of the man, which he bravely refused to give. After that, they simply continued with the torture out of some sick sense of innate cruelty. He was ‘the enemy’ and he was at their mercy, so they brutally murdered their captive. The brave captain was emasculated. And anally impaled on a tree branch. All this while still alive. Alfred Savoir, the man who published the picture and was an eye witness to the death of the brave military officer, described "M. B.", who ordered this atrocity, thus: I knew him not long ago; he was a charming teenager with an ironic wit and joker. He was rubbed with French culture, he admired the novels of Barres and he quot...

CLIFFORD HOYT: THE MAN WHO HAS SEEN HELL

CLIFFORD HOYT: THE MAN WHO HAS SEEN HELL I immediately make a premise. Many Paranormal groups report news similar to the one I am about to publish, about a certain Harry Hoyt, aged 31, who died in 1999 a few days after having an accident from which he woke up saying he saw Hell (and they put a scene from the movie “Hellraiser 2” as a photo). Well, what I found in my research is very different, although the common thread is the same. So it's up to you to decide which version is the right one (assuming one of the two is true). Let's go to the facts. The protagonist is Clifford Hoyt (not Harry: Harry Hyot is an American filmmaker to me), 31 who suffered serious injuries in a car accident due to icy asphalt in 1999, on his way home after a long day at work in Maryland. . He remained in a coma for a few hours and when he regained consciousness, he revealed to the nurse that he was looking after him that he had been sucked into a vortex that led him straight to Hell. He told of the p...

Masha Bruskina.

Masha Bruskina. Masha Bruskina was a Russian teenage female partisan. She was a 17 year old Jewish high school graduate and was the first teenage girl to be publicly hanged by the Nazis in Belorussia (Belarus), since the German invasion of Soviet Union on the 22nd of June 1941. Her execution and that of the two men hanged with her took place on the 26th of October 1941 in the city of Minsk. In the photos of her, you will see that she has blond hair, but her natural colour was dark. She dyed her hair when she started to work for the underground. Witnesses to her hanging, testified that Masha struggled hard and lost control of her bladder and bowels. After hanging for three days, she and the men were taken down and only when her body was traditionally washed before her burial by local people and members of her family, did her dark hair show up. She worked as a nurse in a military hospital and was a member of an underground cell which...

During World War II, millions of people were sent to concentration camps, including women.

During World War II, millions of people were sent to concentration camps, including women. Women in concentration camps were subjected to brutal treatment and often faced more severe conditions than their male counterparts. The conditions in the camps were inhumane, and women were often subjected to forced labor, starvation, and medical experiments. Women were treated differently in concentration camps than men. They were often separated from their families, forced to perform hard labor, and subjected to sexual abuse. Women who were pregnant were also subjected to harsh conditions and medical experimentation. Many women were killed, either as part of the genocide or because they were deemed too weak to continue working. One of the most notorious concentration camps where women were held was Auschwitz-Birkenau. There, women were subjected to forced labor, starvation, and medical experimentation. Many were killed in gas chambers or through other forms of execution. The camp was designe...

After Hiroshima and Nagasaki: Tragedy and Humiliation.

After Hiroshima and Nagasaki: Tragedy and Humiliation. U.S. and Australian brutalisation of women on the Japanese mainland. (Excerpt From Pages 66-69) All references are provided in the book itself. “There was a far darker side to the U.S. and allied occupation of Japan, one which is little mentioned in the vast majority of histories – American or otherwise. When Japan surrendered in August 1945, mass rapes by occupying forces were expected… [despite setting up of a comfort women which recruited or otherwise trafficked desperate women to brothels] such crimes were still common and several of them were extremely brutal and resulted in the deaths of the victims. Political science professor Eiji Takemae wrote regard- ing the conduct of American soldiers occupying Japan: ‘U.S. troops comported themselves like conquerors, especially in the early weeks and months of occupation. Misbehavior ranged from black-marketeering, petty theft, reckless driving and disorderly con...

Abu Ghraib Torture Photos

Abu Ghraib Torture Photos The set of pictures I have chosen to review are from Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq. They gained media attention in 2003/04 due to shocking conditions and acts of torture committed by American troops. Sabrina Harman, one of the soldiers featured in the pictures, took the majority of questionable photographs as she found it hard to believe what she was seeing. It raises an ethical question of whether the photographer should intervene? Harman and other troops have made reference to knowing what they were doing was wrong yet continued without question. It becomes difficult to say if the photographers were complicit with what occurred or whether they took the photos to try to enact change. One of the reasons I find the images particularly shocking is how little I had heard of these incidents before researching them. Since Vietnam, pictures taken from battle zones are often greeted with a heavy media backlash and protest in America. This is mainly due to the relati...

Mazzatello Method Of Execution (crushing of the head with AXE)

Mazzatello Method Of Execution (crushing of the head with AXE) Mazzatello: crushing of the head with AXE (abbreviated mazza) was a method of capital punishment used by the Papal States from the late 18th century to 1870. The method was named after the implement used in the execution: a large, long-handled mallet or pole-ax. The condemned would be led to a scaffold in a public square of Rome, accompanied by a priest (the confessor of the condemned); the platform also contained a coffin and the masked executioner, dressed in black. A prayer would first be said for the condemned’s soul. Then, the mallet would be raised, and swung in the air to gain momentum, and then brought down on the head of the prisoner, similar to a contemporary method of slaughtering cattle in stockyards. Because this procedure could merely stun the condemned rather than killing him instantly, the throat of the prisoner would then be slit with a knife. DEEDLY RELATED POST The Robe and Ax...

Thomas Wyre - for the murder of his son. 30 year old Thomas Wyre, a labourer at Kingsford farm was hanged at Worcester Gaol on the 18th of July 1888 for the murder of his four year old son whom he had thrown down a well on the 3rd of March 1888.

Jong Sang Thaek’s brutal execution: Stripped naked and eaten alive by Dogs

Jong Sang Thaek’s brutal execution: Stripped naked and eaten alive by Dogs North Korea, Jan 03: Unlike previous executions of political prisoners, the execution of Jang Song Thaek on December 12 was reportedly one of the most brutal ones ever conducted by the North Korean regime. According to a detailed account published in Wen Wei Po, a Hong Kong based Chinese newspaper, Jang Song Thaek, Korean supreme leader Kim Jong-Un’s uncle and the second most powerful man in North Korea, was stripped naked and thrown into a cage of 120 hounds who had been starved for three days. During the brutal execution, which was reportedly personally overseen by Kim Jong Un, the hounds were allowed to prey on Jang Song Thaek and five of his closest aides who also had been stripped and thrown into the cage. According to the report, the entire process lasted for about an hour by the end of which they were completely eaten up. This is called "quan je" or "execution by dogs". Political ...
