The Cheshire Murders

The horrific house invasion and arson committed by Linda Hayes and Joshua Komisarjevsky, whom both went by the name Steven Hayes at the time of the murders despite being given a male gender at birth, are detailed in the book The Cheshire Murders.

In a home invasion in Cheshire, Connecticut, the pair killed Jennifer Hawke-Petit, along with her daughters Michaela Petit and Hayley Petit. Two family members were sexually molested, and the offenders destroyed their homes with fire to hide their traces. Dr. William Petit was the only family member to survive the event unharmed.

Beware the Slenderman

The 2014 attempted murder of Payton “Bella” Leutner by Morgan Geyser and Anissa Weier is detailed in the book Beware the Slenderman. Leutner was enticed into the woods by Geyser and Weier, who then stabbed her 19 times while narrowly missing a major artery.

The teenage girls felt they were acting violently to placate the fictitious character Slenderman. The Creepypasta figure was utterly convincing to both of the criminals, who were profoundly disconnected from reality.

There’s Something Wrong with Aunt Diane 

In this real crime documentary, Diane Schuler is shown driving a van full of children the wrong way down a stretch of motorway, which ultimately led to the Taconic State Parkway tragedy in 2009. She slammed into oncoming traffic, killing eight people.

Her autopsy revealed that she had significant blood alcohol and THC levels. Her family was distraught by the accident, which may have contributed to their lack of perspective. They hold to their belief that Diane must have accidentally eaten the intoxicants throughout the entire movie. However, those who are harmed by her deeds find little solace in her determination.

Who Killed Garrett Phillips? 

WHO DIE? Garrett Phillips monitors the Oral “Nick” Hillary inquiry in connection with the death of 12-year-old Garrett Phillips. The youngster was killed in his apartment block room while residing there with his mother. Investigators think that after carrying out the murder, the assailant escaped through the boy’s bedroom window.

Even though there are several other possible suspects, Hillary was the only one who was given a lot of attention, even though it is entirely possible that he had nothing to do with Garrett’s death.

Capturing The Friedmans

The 1984 inquiry against Arnold and Jesse Friedman is revisited in the HBO film Capturing the Friedmans. From their Great Neck, New York, home, the father and son held a computer class. Authorities launched a thorough inquiry after learning that the senior Friedman owned child pornography.

They ultimately concluded that Jesse Friedman and Arnold Friedman were assaulting youngsters sexually in their computer classes. The issue is that rather than seeking out the truth, the investigation appears to have been guided by a presumption of guilt.

This could very possibly be the most gruesome true crime film I have seen. I also watch a lot of true crime television. The case’s subject matter is highly upsetting, but it’s also very possible that Jesse Friedman and Arnold Friedman were not guilty of most of the accusations made against them. There’s a good chance Jesse, Arnold’s kid, didn’t do anything illegal.
