    South Korea "Erased" 4,000 People To Host The Olympic Games: True Story Behind “Squid Game”

    It’s the biggest church in South Korea but nobody knows it exists. The church itself can fit at least 4,000 church goers all at once. But that’s not the intriguing part of the church… they just do things differently. There are a row of people standing in front of the pastor. They are asking him for forgiveness but they’re all wearing the same thing. A red sack with big ugly painted letters on there that read “I am a sinner who has gone against God’s word.” Pastor Lim prays over them - one by one. Before he turns around and pulls out a set of red boxing gloves. He slowly, calmly puts them on and starts beating the people down. He doesn’t stop till the entire row of red sack wearing people are bloody on the floor. Then he calmly fixes his clothes and heads back to the podium to continue preaching to the church goers. This is not a cult story. This is Brother’s Home. A government funded camp to cleanse the humans of South Korea ahead of the Olympics. The true story behind the Squid Game show.

    The Real Life "Squid Game" - Thousands Of Koreans Forced To Play Children's Games To NOT Be Killed

    They’re all wearing the same blue tracksuit. Thousands of them standing out in the middle of the woods wearing the same thing. What is this place? They’re out in the middle of the woods - in what appears to be a small secretive city? A military base? How did they get 60+ buildings out here in the middle of the forest? And that giant wall… it’s 30 feet tall. Tall enough to keep people out. Or keep them in.  The guards are watching each of the track suit wearing people with precision. One wrong move and you get beat. That’s when they hear it…  The man starts running up onto the roof of one of the buildings - and there he goes. He flies off the top and lands in front of everyone. On his head.  Someone standing right there says - “honestly, I didn’t know the sound of someone’s head exploding could make such a loud splitting sound. I saw his skull explode open.” A guard member walks out and sweeps up his brains and bones as if nothing happened. Sounds familiar doesn’t it? It kind of sounds like the plot of one of the most famous series on Netflix, Squid Game. But it’s not.  This is the real life case of the Brother’s Home in South Korea.  The true story behind Squid Game. Full source note: rottenmangopodcast.com

    #409: I Received A Message From A Serial Killer’s Wife Asking For Help…

    I received an email from the ex-wife of a serial killer. The subject reads: “ I was married to a serial killer for 7.5 years and I need help!!” Her ex husband was sentenced to death for the murder of 3 women. When authorities searched his house they found a soundproof torture chamber. Whips, iron chains, and many many files. Video files of him torturing his victims - plucking out their nails one by one.  Now, his ex wife has come forward to ask for help. She was not only one of the first people he tried to kill but now her son (that she shares with him) has been taken. The serial killer’s mother has taken her son and now she’s on the hunt to get him back.  This is her GoFundMe: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-reunite-a-mother-with-her-son-after-35-year Full Source Notes: rottenmangopodcast.com

    #408: 5Yr Old Girl SOLD - 26 Years Later She Wants Revenge & On Mission To Kill Trafficker

    Sang’s mom is haunted. Everyone has their own explanations for it but it’s that simple.  Every time she sets the dinner table - she stares at the empty seat. Sometimes smiling, sometimes pouting, but always as if someone is sitting there.  Sang would ask -  “Mom, is everything alright?” “Just make sure to save some of the meat for Niuniu - you know that’s her favorite.” Sang’s mom would motion at the empty chair and smile.  The haunting started when Niuniu, Sang’s little sister, went missing. Nobody knew what happened to her other than the fact that she received a creepy doll with moving eyes shortly before she went missing.  26 years later Niuniu would come back to tell everyone the truth. She was kidnapped, trafficked, and sold. After 26 years she was coming back to kill her trafficker. Get her revenge.  Full Source Notes: rottenmangopodcast.com

    #407: United Healthcare CEO Shot In Public, But Nation Wants Killer Freed: EVERYTHING We Know So Far

    The man in the olive green jacket is ready. Today is the day. He’s nervously walking through the crowd of New Yorkers to get to his destination.  The last thing he needs is to get stopped by anyone - especially the NYPD.  A man passes by him muttering -  “Bro, idk if you should be doing this but your life choice I guess?” Another citizen points and squeals -  “He’s the one! He’s the one!” With that.. the man in the jacket smiles. He is contestant number 6 in the lookalike contest for the shooter that killed Brian Thompson. The CEO of United Health Care.  This man just won $50.  How is it that a man is shot and killed in the middle of Manhattan in broad daylight, his body hasn’t even been laid to rest yet, and the shooter is still on the run… and yet.  There is a lookalike contest for the killer? Most Americans have been asking themselves this past week - who really is the true victim here? Is it the one that was shot and killed? Or is it the shooter himself? Or is it all of us?

    #406: 16-Yr-Old Murders 98-Yr-Old Woman To SA Her Corpse For 2 Hours While Recording

    “To Catch A Predator” steps: Hire an adult decoy to lurk on websites advertising themselves as 13 year olds looking for a middle aged companion.  Invite the adult predator to a house that has been wired for audio and video recording.  Have the host of the famous TV show pop out to ask the predator questions and arrest them on the way out.  That is the premise to the show “To Catch A Predator” that has now been cancelled for its moral dilemmas.  But now influencers are recreating the show themselves on their platforms. Luring in predators, confronting them, and then calling the police.  That’s what 17 year old Gavon tells the cops was his plan… He met up with a middle aged man on Grindr for the purpose of robbing him because he deserves it. Why else would he talk to a minor? But for the police to believe his side of the story they have to go through his phone… and that’s where they find a folder titled - “Dark.”  The password? “Murder.”  Suddenly a simple robbery case turns into a murder investigation because in it… are videos and photos of 17 year old Gavon Ramsay killing and SAing a 98 year old woman in her own home. Gavon Ramsay is the predator.  Full Source Notes: rottenmangopodcast.com

    #405: Man From Viral Tiktok Looks Exactly Like Missing Husband- Did He Fake His Own Death For Another Girl

    Do you trust a random stranger to give you life-altering advice? A TikToker is standing on the sidewalk with a giant pasteboard - “ASK ME FOR FREE ADVICE.”  A middle aged man on a bike stops and asks “Do I go to Uzbekistan or stay here?” The whole exchange is bizarre. She asks him why would he move? He tells her for a woman. She asks him why doesn’t he just date an American woman? He tells her that he’s already married with kids… All of this is made more confusing by the fact that the entire time the man appears calm. He’s pleasant and keeps smiling…  That TikTok is filmed in June. In August, just 2 months later, a man goes missing in one of the deepest lakes in the state. He’s presumed dead.  But why does he look identical to the man in the TikTok video? Did this man actually drown?  Or did he fake his death, abandon his wife and kids, to be with a new woman?

    #404: IG Model Tells Cops She Died & Came Back From Future AFTER Killing 2 People

    “I woke up alone in a hospital. There is nobody here. I can’t find a single person. Humanity is extinct. The date is February 2027.” That is from a viral TikToker, Javier, who claims he is from the future to warn us about humanity. But there’s no way he’s actually from the future, right? Meanwhile, in Miami - an IG model is telling the police - “the aliens are coming. They’re coming. They’re coming. They’re coming. They’re coming. They’re coming.” The authorities are confused. She tells them - “I’m from the future. I’m a crystal ball. You can live off me.” The police ask her if she remembers what happened.  “Yes, I remember. I died.” Puzzling. Because she’s not dead. She is very much alive but just one block down there are two people that are dead and they’re not coming back.  Full Source Note: www.rottenmangopodcast.com
