They each had a fantasy of watching their wives be intimate with other men. The only problem was that their wives were not open to the idea. The 7 husbands gathered on an online forum to talk about how they weren’t going to let their own wives get in the way of fulfilling their dreams. They felt they were entitled to this.  For the next 8 years, the men would plot, drug, and facilitate the assaults of their own wives all the while filming it for their online chatrooms. They had dreams of impregnating each other’s spouses and they laughed at how their wives had no clue that they were being betrayed and assaulted in the worst ways possible.  This is the shocking case of how a group of husbands created a trafficking network - where the victims were their own wives.  Full Source Notes: rottenmangopodcast.com To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

Congresswoman Flor was a lot of things - politician, pastor, gospel singer, wife, and mother of 55 adopted children. From a campaign standpoint she was unstoppable. She appealed to every possible demographic. The only thing standing in her way was the pesky rumor that she attended “swap” parties. The rumor was Congresswoman Flor and her husband would show up to these explicit parties wearing masks and watch each other with other partners… and sometimes… they would even bring their adopted children with them to watch. So when Congresswoman Flor’s husband was gunned down after allegedly attending one of these wild parties - the door to Flor’s house swung wide open for investigators. With Pandora’s box now open, allegations started spilling out - allegations of sexual abuse in the family. Mother to sons. Father to daughters. Brothers and sisters.

She was one of the top realtors in all of Toronto, and that day she was going to be showing a $6.9M house to potential buyers. She gracefully toured the 12k square foot mansion with them before getting to the deepest corner of the basement level. The indoor lap pool. She pressed the button to let them in, and the room had this eerie glow to it. The only light on was the pool light - reflecting a blue back hue to the ceiling. And on the very far end of the room were two bodies hanging and posed like statues. They were unmoving. The buyers joked that the homeowners have strange taste in art. The realtor laughed and quickly led them out. She knew those weren’t statues. It wasn’t art. They were her billionaire clients - dead and staged in one of the most bizarre, eerie scenes.

Lily’s instructions were clear. She was to wait at the bottom of the mountain in the dark till she saw the light. The flashlight would beam down the mountain, leading her to where she needed to go. She was nervous, but she knew she needed to follow the directions. When she got to the top of the mountain - Lily saw the light led directly into a pre-dug 5-foot grave. Two men jumped out and snapped her neck while recording it. They were going to send the murder video to the special forces team of the military - because Lily was a fake flight attendant. Fake college student. They believed she was really- a secret spy for an enemy nation.   Full Source Notes: rottenmangopodcast.com To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

A candid photo of 21-year-old Yuka had gone viral. She was sitting on the floor in her short t-shirt dress, phone up to her ear, and a cigarette relaxed between the fingers of her hand. She looked relaxed and causal. Pretty but in an effortless, almost innocent way. This photo would inspire people to make Fanclubs, donation links, and even fan art for Yuka. They were taken aback by her beauty and youth. They completely ignored the fact that she was drenched in blood and the dying body of her love interest lying motionless behind her. Some even went as far as to beg her to stab them next. They wrote - “she’s my dream girl.” “She’s too pretty to kill.” Full Source Notes: rottenmangopodcast.com To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

There were things that fascinated him: surgery, polygamy, and torture. He decided the only way to have all 3 was if he started his own cult in the isolated woods of Canada. He gathered 40 followers in a small cabin, convinced them that the apocalypse was coming and the only way they could be saved was if they followed his every word. His male followers’ private parts were cut off, teeth were pulled out with pliers, and they were creatively beaten on a daily basis. He performed open stomach surgery on one of his wives without painkillers or anesthetic. He amputated another one of his wife’s arms without any painkillers just because he felt like it. And he kept all the spare body parts as evidence of torture in his little trophy shed.
