F.B.I. Pathology Report w/ Morgan Hall

On this episode of F.B.I. Pathology Report we explore the religious sect/cult Order Of The Solar Temple ['s Mass Suicides and Murders] who claimed to be ideologically based upon the epitome of Knights Templar [:Founded around 1118 A.D. as a monastic military order evoted to the protection of pilgrims, an act mostly known as "the Crusades", (even though they were considered "Protectors of the Christians") they allegedly worshipped the Baphomet deity, which later on got comprised by Western & occultist traditions and subcultures, some may call "Heresies" in Latin. Also, Knights Templar were (partly) responsible for (now) modern superstitions such as the Friday the 13th, a date they suffered vanishing tortures whilst their post activities are yet to be confirmed & to this day, a mystery.]
On October 5, 1994, Tony Dutoit [Member of the Order Of The Solar Temple], killed his 3 month old son in Morin-Heights, Quebec, by using a wooden stake, a murder that's rumored Joseph Di Mambro [One of the Sect's 3 leaders/founders] ordered, because of the belief the baby identified as the Antichrist is being described in the Bible, and would supposedly prevent Di Mambro of carrying out his "sacred" aims. Afterwards, 53 inner-circle members committed suicide in Switzerland and Quebec. [15 by the consumption of poison, 30 by bullets or smothering & 8 others by other means.] In Switzerland, many of the victims were found in a secret underground chapel heavily decorated with mirrors and other items of Templar symbolism whilst being dressed in the order's ceremonial robes and were in a circle, feet together, heads outward, most with plastic bags tied over their heads; they had each been shot in the head.
Later on, from 1995 until the sect's suspension of plotting ritual suicide in 1998, another 21 more members around the globe took their own lives as part of the cult's beliefs.
Starting with an infamous Christopher Lee interview about Black Magic, as in the Old Testament, it begins with light, a metaphorical expression of birth, and continues/ends in the bleak obscure complex of New Testament's fingerprint on human consciousness, dressed with trancy and ritualistic rhythmic & non-rhythmic tunes and soundscapes, where underneath this disguise's eerie sense, lies a trascendental PTSD [also in a form the human mind's superstitious propensities can translate as a possesion] and a few blank pages, yet to be written.

On this episode of F.B.I. Pathology Report, 
we explore the assassination of Swedish Prime Minister, Olof Palme, in Stockholm, 1986.
Some time not long before midnight, Palme was walking back home with his wife, Lisbeth Palme, after cinema, on the flattened in snow cold streets of Central Stockholm, until they suddenly being shot at close range, leaving Lisbeth injured, and Olof dying on is arrival at the Sabbatsberg Hospital, at midnight. 
Official & independent investigations took place post-murder/crime, [even targeting South African government as a suspect,] resulting 4 potential perpetrators, setting the stage's light upon a particular individual who fitted the suspect profile, nicknamed "The Skandia Man", named after their working place at a building [under the same name] next to the crime scene. 
On June 10 2020, there had been a public statement, that Swedish prosecutors knew who killed the Prime Minister, naming Stig Engstrom as the murderer. He was one out of the 20 people who were the key witnesses of the assassination & got identified by 2 famous public figures, who also were witnessing the incident when it was occuring.
Whilst Engstrom was dead at the time, [by committing suicide in 2000], Swedish authorities closed the investigation on Palme's death.
Starting the first half of the show under sub-zero temperatures
with ice-cold Dungeon Synth soundscapes and razor-sharp Black Metal moments 
blended with an abyssal Power Electronics tornado that threateningly comes back and forth, 
[indicating the corrupt likewise K-Hole of politics and it's related parties,] several minutes before the end of the first half, reaches to a point that symbolizes a gun shooting that it penetrates the human body, the moment the first blood drop touches the snowy ground, and what was felt like a normal night, blackens the image of comfort with hatred & murder, we get into the painted-black second half, where we face a Raw Black Metal & Dungeon Synth assault, that bludgeons every form of innocence, in the depths of the depths of a snow-white Hell, blindly & desperately searching for accusations and the guilty,  in a room full of nameless & faceless suspects and deformed & decomposed corpses, both unidentified.

P.S. Both tend to engrave a pathway in experimentation using raw black/dungeon synth influences in the name of progression, through amps & electronics [by also streaming unreleased material from both sides], as an attempt to overcome the ever-changing modern routine's decay, fading like fresh blood on the streets, as time, seasons & people are passing by, no matter, how, where & why it got spilled.

For over two decades JZK has used his Crave project to fray rap at its fringes, using Memphis and Houston's low-and-slow legacy to inform sounds that have as much in common with Merzbow as they do Tommy Wright III.
Working under a variety of different monikers such as Lieu Noir, Sniper Bait, nevada_jerky_gurl23 and Soul Collector,  he is most prolific as Crave. 
JZK is also the person behind the [currently] Paris-based label P.I.T. [Paso Inferior Tapes], 
that focuses on the experimental sound & concept fields, such as noise, dungeon synth, raw black etc.

On this episode of F.B.I. Pathology Report we explore the Cecil Hotel in Downtown [Skid Row], Los Angeles. Now named "Stay On Main" [due to reputation issues], despite the fact, [since it's downfall,] the notorious 19-floor & 700 room hotel housed sex workers, drug dealers & homeless people, it also been a lane for serial killers such as Richard Ramirez and Jack Untewerger. 
Throughout the years, it's being said there have been occured at least 16 sudden or unexplained deaths in or around the hotel, whilst Amy Price [Cecil Hotel Manager 2007-2017] made a statement contending there were about at least 80 deaths [during her tenure.] Including the Black Dahlia murder and the mysterious disappearance & death of Canadian student Elisa Lam [, who was found in one of the water tanks on the roof of Cecil, and other incidents such as Pauline Otton's suicide when she jumped off the window of the seventh floor landing on a pedestrian below, fatally killing both of them,] and many others, the Hotel remains, as a reporter have called it, "a hotbed for death."
-
This episode is structured & influenced by the idea of the human brain's system [and of course, brain itself] is being a construction, and it's regions, rooms [such as the amygdala, prefrontal cortex etc. and neural circuits that modulate aggressive behaviors that include orbifrontal cortex, hypothalamus, periaqueductal gray & hippocampus, their corridors.]
Each track selection [& it's mixture with another or more] represents a room, whilst each room, represents a felony. A construction room capacity's [in this specific case the Cecil Hotel] large enough to fit man's capability to commit every possible felony & crime known [or/and yet unknown] to mankind.

The Undertaker’s Tapes moniker from Prague based french 
born artist Léo Hivert has built his sound through years of 
musical practice. 
From punk bands from his early age, remains the raw and 
relentless energy of his EBM productions while he develops 
the cathartic aspect through noise, power electronics and 
down tempo industrial. 
Fascinated by Poe and Blake, The Undertaker’s Tapes finds 
his voice in subjects such as death, longing, existentialist and 
belief questioning through the prism of his own experience 
and sensitivity. 
Collaborating closely with visual artist Chloé Burkiewicz, 
his artistic approach also involve in a more contemporary 
way references such as Hermann Nitsch or John John. This 
strong attraction for A/V arts, performances and extreme 
representations both ideological and emotional follows in 
the wake of these affinities with a more institutional Art but 
not less experimental.

Âmes Sanglantes is an underground noise project started by Pierre-Marc Tremblay in September 1996. This was a valley for noise and many of the underground bands went even further into obscurity. Yet the doors of the international noise network were about to break open with the arrival of the internet calamity. Ames was highly active on the MSBR guestbook days of noise where punters would ""sign"" the guestbook and leave adverts and make contact with other loners. An electronic version of a bulletin board with classified ads for ""piano lessons"", ""English tutors"", and bands ""seeking lead singers"". A melting pot of grindcore, absurdist mail art, and industrial punk, this ""pay-to-play"" scene consisted of open-minded strangers who would send one another one half of a c60 on principle to other strangers to make a split tape. 99-track compilation CDs where the artist would submit a piece under one minute, pay a small fee, and receive one or two copies of the disc in exchange were the only hope of promotion. Many times, open call compilation submissions would fail to materialize and masters that hadn't been duplicated would be lost. As the '90s came to a close, the last dying gasp of the pre-internet world finally collapsed. Mr. Tremblay immersed himself in the black metal band Akitsa, which rose to cult status as being one of the ""real"" bands from North America in the third wave of black metal from the late '90s. But make no mistake, this was a black metal full of punk, noise, and industrial influences that Mr. Tremblay carried along from his insane past in the DIY tape culture meltdown world of harsh noise and freak-out grind bands. A change took place and Âmes Sanglantes shed its nonsensical skin to adopt a darker, more focused industrial and ambient noise. This new transformation was equally informed by Cold Meat Industry alongside RRRecords and the early days of Alien8 recordings, an imprint close to Tremblay during his first experiments with youthful electronics. Now having secured himself cult status in the black metal world, Âmes Sanglantes has returned as Bloody Souls. Âmes Sanglantes is also a live project that has shared the stage with artists such as Kevin Drumm, Alberich, MSBR, Tim Hecker, Godflesh, and more.

On this episode of F.B.I. Pathology Report we explore the Dyatlov Pass incident [ ""Death of the Dyatlov Group"" ], an event that occured on early February, 1959 in Soviet Russia.
An experienced trekking group of 9 Soviet hikers were found dead in the Northern Ural Mountains, apparently under mysterious circumstances. Soviet authorities' investigation resulted in the determination of: 6 of them have died of hypothermia but the rest of the 3
had been killed by physical trauma [ 1. skull damage 2. severe chest trauma 3. small crack in skull ]. 4 of the bodies were found lying in running water in a creek, and 3 of these 4 had damaged soft tissue of the head and face – 2 of the bodies had missing eyes, one had a missing tongue, and another one had missing eyebrows. 
Conclusion splitted in several folds, with the authorities maintaining the cause of deaths being a ""compelling natural force"", and theories surrounding the incident including animal attacks, avalanche, hypothermia, infrasound-induced panic, katabatic winds & military involvement.

On this episode of F.B.I. Pathology report we're audibly exploring the series incidents caused by Luka Rocca Magnotta in Canada 2010-2012.
In the beginning he gained a certain amount of attention by posting on the then less populated Youtube, a video of strangling a cat & shortly after a couple more by the use of a vacuum cleaner. While a Facebook group took hold to find out the perpetrator's identity, he proceeded by fakingly making himself famous on the web through fake accounts he was creating, thus his intervension on the Facebook group itself & the video he captured 
(and then uploaded on his Yt channel) of one of the members and co-admins' while she was walking/working at a casino in Las Vegas.
From his warned killing to the interrogation itself, acts and behaviors were strictly representing a mixed projection of the famous blockbusters like ""Catch Me If You Can"", ""Basic Instict"" & apparently ""Casablanca"", by the use of a poster of the film, being shown on his final video where he commits the infamous murder of Jun Ling.

Matthew Samways (AKA MITH-XX) first met and saw MAN IS THE BASTARD/BASTARD NOISE when they were 14 in Halifax, Nova Scotia. 2 years later they started ELECTRIC VOICE RECORDS and was working with the likes of Genesis Breyer P-Orridge, Martial Canterel, Xeno & Oaklander, Ike Yard, and countless others. They have played in many bands over the years, including Sacred Bones' The Pink Noise in the early days. After dropping out of high school, they went out to complete a trade in Audio Engineering as well as studying Interdisciplinary Arts at the famous art school NSCAD University in Halifax, Nova Scotia. After years of living around Toronto, Vancouver, and most recently Los Angeles - MITH-XX is now located in Montreal and runs the record label FLESH PRISON.

 On this episode of F.B.I. Pathology Report we explore the conflict in Northern Ireland that lasted for about 30 years from the late 1960s to 1998, known as The Troubles.
For this episode, I decided not to write a description for it's facts, 
placing a selected piece from a poem by Douglas McClarty instead.

"Yet I remembered when we all seemed to be free
When we played together Seamus, Paddy and me
At a time when our names didn't condemn us to blame
If you were a child of the troubles.
Both sides trying to score more killing points
A grotesque game played out each day
Why should they make us all pay
If you were a child of the troubles.
Somehow one day the killing all suddenly stopped
Then it was just shouting about who was to blame
It's much better than bombs, bullets and blood
If you were a child of the troubles."

 The ironic resemblance of past & present situations that reminds of the famous quote “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” by George Santayana [The Life of Reason, 1905. From the series Great Ideas of Western Man,] & a writing found on Maurizio Bianchi's industrial masterpiece [& one of the pioneer artists & records of the genre] "Symphony For a Genocide" [1981], stated as the moral of the work itself, quote 
"The past punishment is the inevitable blindness of the present".

Sin of The Father/Hands Of Providence is a multifaceted project based in London.
Operating and collaborating with Islington ARts and performance collective Chronic Illness. Using array of contrasts/juxtapositions and contradictions within his artwork & audio projects, his approach is to explore duality of things found along the way.

On this episode of F.B.I. Pathology Report, we're auditory exploring the case of Harold Shipman (January 14, 1946 - January 13, 2004), commonly known as "Dr. Death".
Shipman was an English general practitioner & medical doctor who was sentenced to life imprisonment, for approximately murdering at least 215 people, and possibly as many as 260. All his victims had been his patients, a span between/from 1975 to 1998. The key moment of the insertion of the so-called "factor X" of his inspiration for his sadistic killing spree & modus operandi, experts believe that was the moment when he closely observed the  procedure of his dying mother being administered morphine by a doctor, to ease her suffering. He commited suicide in his prison cell, 4 years after his conviction.

Lussuria is an ambient industrial project led by Jim Mroz. Active since 2007, the music of Lussuria shows a multitude of ways to build moods and evoke states of anxiety and threat. Most of the music is created by means of building intricate multi-layered forms and loops, an experimental collage of elements from various origins. In Lussuria, you can hear a multitude of sources, such as metallic textures, slow power drone structures, and trance rhythms. The atmosphere created can be contemplative, uplifting, and ethereal, as well as crude and direct. 
Through several albums and releases on Hospital Productions and compilation appearances on labels such as LIES, Pole Group, and Self Abuse. In addition to worldwide performances, Lussuria has been established as an acclaimed act in the electronic music world. Additionally, Jim has also been a contributor to acclaimed Prurient albums Rainbow Mirror and Frozen Niagara Falls (Profound Lore)
To date, Lussuria has performed at noted events and venues such as Berghain (Germany), Rewire Festival (Holland), Wroclaw Industrial Festival (Poland), Nitsa (Spain), CDMX Earthquake Fundraiser (Mexico), and the 20th anniversary of Hospital Productions in Brooklyn and Los Angeles (USA). In addition successful tours throughout the United States and Europe were completed.

On this episode of F.B.I. Pathology Report we auditory explore the case of Richard Francis Cottingham (born November 25, 1946), better known as the Torso Killer, the New York Ripper & the Times Square Killer. He was convicted for the murder of 18 young women & girls between 1967-1980.

On 2009 (decades after his 5 convictions) he told a journalist that he at least killed 80 women in various regions of U.S., baptizing those murders as "perfect murders", while he personally claims he has killed as many as 100,  by taking them to a remote location, binding, torturing, gagging & stabbing before killing them by asphyxiation or strangulation.

Cottingham is most famously known for the bizarre crime scenes he'd leave behind, from the mutilated bodies of victims, removal of breasts, severed heads and hands to preventing their identification, to the arson of an apartment (along with a body of a victim in it) as part of his attempt to get rid of evidence.

Murders that received further attention (and led to his arrest & conviction) were those who happened across the area of Times Square, which in the 70s was popular for its peep shows & live sex acts.

M.I.A. was created by Raphael Kervella in 2019 in the filthy streets of Brest, west of France. After a first tape "Multiracial Mess" in 2020, followed a series of tapes and CDs including two splits with Bizarre Uproar and a tape "I Love You" on Phage Tapes. It addresses the madness of modern society, mental illness & more. More recently love or more personal topics have been attached. M.I.A. will always be a vehicle towards the neurosis of its creator.

On this episode of F.B.I. Pathology Report we're auditory exploring the infamous escapes of Ted Bundy, by the time he was under custody in Colorado, following up with subsequent manhunts.

(Escape 1)  On Tuesday, June 8, 1977, during a recess in the court proceedings at Pitky County Courthouse, the then-accused killer Ted Bundy asked to take some time at a partitioned are at the back of the courtroom which it was being used as law library, (since he had been acting as his own attorney in the local case and by all accounts had been trusted to study in the law library during his on-going and frequent court appearances,) then, when no one was watching, he leaped from an open window of the second floor and escaped custody, (for which its said he practiced on/for, by repeatedly jumping off his prison cell's bed,) following up a 6-day manhunt until his recapture after walking over the top of Aspen mountain, hiding in an unused cabin near Castle Creek, and then taking a car, which led to its accidental recapture (2 policemen were looking for another individual convicted of similar felonies. Suspecting a drunk driver, they pulled over a car to witness the exhausted Ted Bundy wearing sunglasses and a nose bandage as a disguise.)

*Fun Fact: After his first recapture, when asked of how he survived during the manhunt, Bundy mentioned he found a guy camping in the woods of Aspen Mountain with his friends, and in their absence, Bundy stole food and left. The guy camping was no other than actor Kurt Russell (The Thing, Deathproof, Escape From New York), who by going to get a beer, avoided getting into a dangerous confrontation with Bundy.

(Escape 2)  On the dawn of New Year's Eve of 1977-78, while he had filled his bed with blankets, books and papers in order to make it appear like he was sleeping, Bundy, (who also had shockingly managed to lose 11 kilos in 6 days), climbed through to the ventilation ducts, where carved around an opening that already existed in the ceiling of his prison cell (meant for a light fixture that wasn't installed), and managed to crawl through its almost 10 inch hole, 30 feet through the attic of the one-story building, over another cell, the jail kitchen, and then climb down through a large hole in the closet of the jailer's apartment, who wasn't present at that time.

Whilst being added to the list of the FBI's Ten Most Wanted Fugitives, after escaping the jail for the second time, Bundy boarded a flight to Chicago, took a train to Ann Arbor, Michigan, drove south to Atlanta and got on a bus to Tallahassee, Florida, where he got recaptured and convicted for his shocking crimes, marking him as one of the most notorious criminals & serial killers of the late 20th century.

 On this episode of F.B.I. Pathology Report we explore the case of Ruth Ellis, the last woman to be hanged in Britain. 

 A volatile relationship that led to a miscarriage after he punched her in the stomach during an argument and then the infamous event of the 10th of April, 1955.
On a "fateful' Easter Sunday,  Ruth Ellis, then known as a nightclub hostess, fatally shot David Blakely outside Magdala pub in Hampstead, north London.

 Enormous evidence against Ellis was held, though the public and press campaigned for granting an amnesty to her, due to her good reputation as a mother. 
Despite the massive efforts, she eventually got sentenced to death by hanging.
On July 13, the hangman Albert Pierrepoint and his assistant entered her cell and took her to the adjacent execution room where she was hanged. Remains of executed women at Holloway were exhumed for reburial elsewhere. Particularly, her remains were reburied in the churchyard of St. Mary's Church in Amersham, Buckinghamshire, 4.8 kilometers from where Blakely was buried.

 The evocative intense of attention Ruth's case caused on press and public, (as) a widespread controversy at the time, reached to the point to be discussed by the Cabinet. 
She was the last woman ever to be executed in Britain. An infamous event which from one's perspective, ironically as well as allegorically, so to say, could bear a resemblance to the apocryphal myth of Judith and Holofernes.

On this episode of F.B.I. Pathology Report, we're exploring the case of the American convicted pedophilic and ephebophilic serial rapist, abductor, arsonist (and later serial killer) family annihilator, and stalker, Joseph Duncan III (born February 25, 1965 - died March 28, 2021.)

“By exposing myself on the web I am hoping ultimately that I might solicit some understanding that might otherwise not be possible, since this kind of exposure is so severely discouraged in our society. I am acutely aware that my sickness is a “choice”, but it is not a conscious choice. If it were then I would have simply consciously chosen to not be perverted and depraved a long time ago, and a bunch of people would be still alive today. You might think that it’s a simple matter of an accumulation of a lot of little conscious choices over time that has made me the way I am. And, that may very well be true, but if in the course of making those choices I never consciously knew the end result, then the choice to be what I am today was still an unconscious one.”

On this episode of F.B.I. Pathology Report, we explore the infamous Hungerford Massacre, 1987, UK.

In the morning of August 19, 1987, 27-year-old Michael Ryan (born May 18, 1960) went on a killing spree of 16 people (15+ injured), including his own mother and an unarmed police officer,  Ryan later turned his gun on himself and was found dead by the police, inside the local school he used to study as a child.

Witnesses spoke of a heavily armed man in combat gear, using 2 semi-automatic rifles, an M1 Carbine and Beretta Pistol, opening fire without warning. Some of the witnesses also referred to him looking like "Rambo".

The Firearms (Amendment) Act 1988 was passed following a report that had been commissioned by Home Secretary Douglas Hurd.

No firm motive for the killings has been established.

"Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before" by The Smiths was not released in the UK as a single due to the Hungerford Massacre. Morrissey stated to Len Brown in 1988, mentioning the line about mass murder on the track "They said (Radio One) people would've instantly linked it with Hungerford and it would've caused thousands of shoppers to go out and buy machine guns and murder their grandparents."

Leer Ansturm is the moniker of JHP (John Philippakis, London, UK b. 1986) who also plays as YOUTH MOUNTS THE BARRICADE and CONCRETE STARS with more to follow soon. The project has been active since 2014. Based in London, UK, LEER ANSTURM is an ambient audiovisual exploration of an empty post-industrial totality.

Post Scriptvm is a surrealist experimental electronic music project founded in Brooklyn, NY in 1998 by Andrey Rokotov, a native of Moscow, Russia. The project explores the realms of death industrial, dark ambient, and power electronics, creating a sonic landscape that ranges from eerie, hypnotic soundscapes to industrial noise assaults. 

Thematically, Post Scriptvm delves into topics such as altered states of consciousness, societal collapse, Western esotericism, and apocalyptic religious cults. 

Drawing inspiration from surrealist and occult literature, particularly of the Russian Silver Age, as well as Soviet modern classical composers like Sofia Gubaidulina, Edison Denisov, and Alfred Schnittke, the project has aligned itself with the sounds of the Tesco Organisation record label, which has released the majority of PS's discography over the past two decades.

F.B.I. PATHOLOGY REPORT 019 w/ MORGAN HALL INVITES POST SCRIPTVM (22.03.25)

"On this episode of F.B.I. Pathology Report, we sonically explore the case of the Polish serial killer Paweł Alojzy Tuchlin, code-named Scorpion by the Citizens' Militia, who was sentenced to death for the murder of nine women and a further 11 attempted murders, which took place between 1975 and 1983.

As expressed by Tuchlin himself in court, regarding his teenage years: 

""My illness was that I was soaking in my sleep during the night. And the only medicine available to me at home was ""pyda"", a weave of thongs. When morning came, my mother or father checked the bed. When it was wet, I got a dose of the ""medicine"". The next day, the scene was repeated; because my father was of the opinion that I was lying in my bed maliciously or out of laziness.""

"They disliked me, especially when Dad drank himself, which happened often. At the time, Paweł was no longer there, he was only ""dujcok"", ""piss"" and ""skunk"". For this reason, I did not get, for example, money for the cinema."

"Then I grew up, from time to time there was some kind of fun in the living room, it went, but it all went with me. You wanted to dance, good, you go, ask a girl, and she knows you, it's her, I do not know, but I think it's a shame to dance with someone who is soaked, says: ""Stinks, I do not want to dance with you"", or something like that. Colleagues, friends, make yourself happy."

On 31 May 1983, at the age of 37, Tuchlin was arrested on suspicion of theft of wood and parlor. During the search of his farm, among other things, the car registration number GDM 1418 was found in the trunk of the vehicle, along with the hammer on whose handle was the blood of the victims. The hammer was carefully wrapped up in a bandage; according to Tuchlin, the hammer caught him cold in the stomach while he wore it in his pants looking for victims.

Tuchlin spent six months on psychiatric observation in Szczecin, where he was perceived as kind and helpful, and discovered his artistic talents, even winning a competition for making bread sculptures. The good material, mixed with saliva, could make the bread form and then congeal any form it was given. Tuchlin made three vaginal mock-ups in this way, even decorating them with natural bristles. He fell in love with a psychiatrist and began to write letters to her. So that she could not underestimate him, because only he knew what the words ""real man"" meant. He gave one of those sheaths as a gift to her. The doctor suffered a nervous breakdown.

During the course of the investigation, Tuchlin admitted to 10 murders and 11 attempted murders. As he claimed during the interrogation, he murdered to feel better. At the hearing, however, he recanted his testimony, claiming that he was forced to confess by the police. The regional court in Gdańsk sentenced Tuchlin to death for nine murders and 11 attempted murders on 6 August 1985.

F.B.I. Pathology Report 020 w/ Morgan Hall invites SD.KFZ (24.04.25)

This episode of F.B.I. Pathology Report serves as an alternative approach to the sonic orientation of the true-crime documentary "Colleen Stan: The Girl In The Box", directed by Sean Turrell.

Plot:

On May 19, 1977, Colleen Stan was abducted by a sadistic predator and his wife (Cameron and Janice Hooker), she was brainwashed, tortured, and largely confined to a coffin-size box. But the nightmare continued long after Colleen's escape. When she eventually took the stand at her kidnapper's trial, she found herself portrayed as a willing participant. Nearly 40 years later, Colleen explains how she leaned on faith and family to reclaim her identity. There was another kidnapping victim-one who died and was never found-and now Colleen is determined to find justice for her, too.
