He once controlled the entire economy of the country—to put it simply. The man in the restaurant security footage is an ex minister of Kazakstan, the third most powerful person in the entire country. 
 
His name is Kuandyk Bishimbaev and his wife, Sultanat Nukenova, were supposed to be on a dinner date; instead the security cameras capture something else.
 
Around 7 in the morning, the ex minister grabs his wife by a fistful of her hair and throws her onto the ground in the hallway.
 
Her jacket naturally flips open – and she’s naked, barely covered on the cold dirty floor of the restaurant. He’s standing over his wife’s limp body on the ground. The ex minister lifts his right leg up and starts kicking his wife as hard as he can. He’s holding onto a table to maintain his own balance. 
 
That’s how much force is being used.
 
Then he drags her by the hair into a bathroom – where there are no CCTV cameras. Any footage of her after that has been erased.
 
But the ex-minister is seen many times after on the security footage. Spending time with other women – a lunch date with an influencer, texting an alleged sex worker, all while his wife lay dying in the VIP booth of the restaurant. 
 
His excuse for why he couldn’t call for help or get his wife's battered body out of the restaurant? Well—because— Vladimir Putin is coming.

That was it. He was going to kill her. 
Sato, a bachelor, a young man who still lived with his mother terrorized her within the walls of her own home.
Sure, she could still go out, enjoy her life, but Sato had control over the household in a way that made her feel suffocated. 
Trapped. 
Sato’s mother called the police on him the first time she felt that her life was truly in danger. She was sure he would kill her. 
At least that was the version she told the police. But when they came to her house and found a kidnapped girl in her son, Sato’s bedroom—
They discovered the girl had been missing for nearly a decade. 
She was nine years old when she had disappeared. 
Still, the mother kept to her story. That she too, was held emotionally captive and it seems the police believed her. 
But the girl, now a young woman, remembers things a little bit differently

He melted onto the street. 
He was 6 years old when he was walking down the street in South Korea. Someone walks up to him and pours sulfuric acid down his throat and all over his face. His clothes were burnt black. The floor had bits of melted flesh. 

Third degree burns over most of his body - the boy had a 5% chance of survival. 
He was rushed to the hospital where he told the officers that the man - “Mr. Kim” who owned the fried chicken shop was running up behind him with the bag of acid. He was the one that did it! 

“Nonsense, acid is liquid. You can’t put it in a plastic bag - it will burn through the plastic.”

That was the police’s response. Had they investigated properly - they would have realized… the fried chicken shop owner was indeed, a little strange.

The first thing they feel is how stiff the table is underneath them… it feels so cold. Then, they open their eyes, and see a masked man staring straight at them holding a scalpel. 

The first instinct is to scream. To run. 
But that would be silly. They paid thousands of dollars for this surgery. 

Suddenly, their eyes start feeling heavy again. The room looks blurry and they start to feel like something heavy is sitting on their chest. 

The only comfort is knowing that they booked the best plastic surgeon in all of South Korea. It was a little strange that they had an opening for a surgery the same week… because wouldn’t his schedule be fully booked? If he’s that popular?

And they could have sworn that he had 5 other surgeries scheduled for this very time slot… how could the doctor be in 5 operating rooms at once?

But that’s why they’re called “ghost doctors.” You book a surgery with a top doctor, pay top dollar, only to have him walk out the room the second you are sedated. Then a strange man will come in and perform surgery. 

The man that worked the front desk? The medical salesman? The custodian? 
They can all be your doctor if they put on a white coat.

 The summer sleep away camp for youths is held on the Island of UTOYA every single summer. About 500 teenagers will gather on the wooded island.
They sleep in tents, have bonfires, and tell creepy stories while roasting marshmallows.
But when the kids start playing games - that’s usually when the fun starts. Card games, tag, hide and seek -
A group of 11 teenagers were lying down in the grass right off the “Lover’s Path.”
“Here lay down right here and don’t move. Shhhh. Act like you’re dead.”
If a single one of them sneezes, coughs, or so much as moves - their covers are blown. They hear the footsteps getting nearer on the path… closer…
One of the 11 looks up.
There is a young guy, blonde hair, striking blue eyes - just standing over them.
She makes eye contact with him… he lifts his hand up and a black rifle appears.
He opens fire.
Out of the 11. 10 will die. 1 will survive.
Another 59 on the island will be killed within the hour. There is a mad gunman on the loose on an island full of teenagers.
