#285: Korean Influencer Took Break From Social Media & Found Murdered 2 Months Later

There is a college student laying down on the hospital bed. She’s staring up at the ceiling in distress as someone records her silently from the corner of the room. “I’m going to have such a long day tomorrow - I’m not going to answer anyone’s Snapchats!”The person recording does not respond. “Well, you’re too quiet. I’m going to start singing since I hate the quiet.” The girl gets up in the hospital bed to perform Justin Bieber’s “Intentions.” She’s whipping her head around like she’s giving a stage performance on tour. She just doesn’t understand why the man in the room with her is so stiff. Loosen up. Have some fun. He snaps at her - “you want me to be honest with you? You’re going to jail. You don’t have bond. You killed two people tonight. That’s what’s going on. So no, you’re not going to school tomorrow.”This is the case of Stephanie Melgoza - the college student who killed two people and proceeded to complain the whole time about how she needed to go to class, told the officers about how excited she was for her Vegas trip, and sang songs at the crime scene. Full Source Notes: rottenmangopodcast.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Hospitals are no strangers to death. But something very odd was happening inside the walls of Kolkata’s RG Kar Medical College. The medical students, junior doctors, professors were all running away from the classroom. Screaming. Administrators rushed to call Dr. Di’s parents. ‘She self exited.’That is what her parents were told. Their precious daughter had taken her own life. Perhaps it was the unbearable pressure and long work hours?Or not. The autopsy would show that Dr. D, a 31 year old female doctor, was found gang SA’d to the point her pelvic bone was damaged, bleeding from her eyes, mouth, and private parts, bite marks all over, and her legs found bent at an unnatural contorted angle. Anyone could see that she clearly had not taken her own life. So then, why would her parents be told that? Who is the hospital protecting?What are they covering up? Full Source Notes: rottenmangopodcast.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The entire courtroom is quiet as each person walks up to the front and points. They point at this tiny miniature model of a movie theater sitting on the table. The tiny blue miniature-model seats are positioned just like they were when it all happened. 3 years ago - the emergency exit door to Theater 9 would open. A man with bright orange hair wearing tactical gear would walk into the theater - and open fire. At the midnight premiere of Batman The Dark Knight Rises. He is now sitting in the courtroom charged with 24 counts of murder, 140 counts of attempted murder, and 1 count of illegal explosives. But there are still so many questions - he told his psychiatrist months prior that he wanted to kill people. Why wasn’t he put on a psychiatric hold? Why did he write a notebook filled with his plans to mail to her? Why did he, a neuroscience major, hate humanity so much to believe in something as vile as “human capital?” The idea that taking a life increases the value of your own.  Full Source Notes: rottenmangopodcast.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Ophelia, an Italian mafia boss, had a thing for fingers. She likes the way they curve, the soft bend at the knuckles, the tender skin, just everything about hands. She loves. She just hates that she only has one. Her hand was cut off in a war with the enemy mafia over territory. Ophelia is sitting at a bar when Kim walks in. Kim is part of the enemy mafia. Kim sits down and slides over a gift. Ophelia peers inside and a small smile creeps onto her face…. This is perfect. So beautiful. She uses both of her hands to place the gift bag under the table. Yes, both of her hands. Because Ophelia’s hands were never cut off. She’s not a mafia boss. In fact, her name is not even Ophelia. She is a South Korean high schooler who joined a role playing game. But now the question is - who is Kim?Because inside the gift bag are very very real human lungs and flesh. Including a pretty little finger. Ophelia’s favorite.  Full Source Notes: rottenmangopodcast.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Finding love is not easy. Especially when you’re competing against almost 3.9k other people for just one man. You really only have one shot, so how do you stand out? You could send pictures or even nudes!Though on second thought…they’ll probably get flagged and he won’t even be able to read them. Maybe a love poem? “I know you’ve been hurt, but I’ll be with you. I see the pain in your eyes.” It’s kind of like the bachelor; everyone fighting for one man’s affections. Who’s going to come out on top?Only, this man is not the bachelor. He’s a killer.
