    Man Reported Missing Found Dead 8 Months Later When Wife Looked For Decorations

    The body of a missing man was discovered in a mummified state nearly eight months after he was reported missing by his wife, New York Post reported.

    On April 22nd, 2022, Richard Maedge was reported missing by his wife of 19 years. Jennifer Maedge told officers that she had spoken to him the day beforehand over the phone, and that he told her he was coming home early. When she arrived to their house in Troy, Illinois, Jennifer saw that the 53-year-old’s car was in their driveway, and that his keys and wallet were inside, but Richard was nowhere to be seen. Local authorities searched the home twice, but Richard couldn’t be located.

    According to officers from the Troy Police Department, the Maedge’s home was described as a “hoarder home,” which made the search for the missing husband challenging. Despite bringing in a K-9 unit for tracking in and around the house, Richard Maedge was not found.

    Around eight months later, on December 11th, Jennifer Maedge discovered her husband’s remains inside a concealed part of a closet while she was searching for Christmas decorations. His body was within a small storage space, in a mummified state, which is why there was no odor post mortem. A coroner report released Thursday reveals that the cause of death was suicide, and no foul play was suspected.

    Marilyn Toliver, the sister of the deceased, has made many complaints about the Troy Police Department’s efforts to find her brother. Meanwhile, his widow praised the investigation, saying that she was grateful for their help. She has since commented that her sole focus is grieving her late husband so that she can move on.

    While discussing the contents of his memoir “Spare” on an international livestream event, Harry told Dr. Gabor Maté that psychedelics are responsible for changing his perspective on life, Vanity Fair reported. In the book, the Duke of Sussex goes into lengthy detail about his experimentations with numerous drugs, and how they helped him cope with the trauma of losing his beloved mother, the late Princess Diana.

    The British royal, who admits to trying marijuana, cocaine, and psilocybin mushrooms, revealed that he was introduced to cocaine at the age of 17. Though he claims to have done it a few more times since, Harry says that his preference is marijuana.

    “Marijuana is different [to cocaine]. It did really help me,” Prince Harry explained. “I started doing it recreationally and then started to realize how good it was for me. I would say it is one of the fundamental parts of my life that changed me and helped me deal with the traumas and the pains of the past. They’re unlocking so much of what we’ve suppressed.”

    In the memoir highlighting the sacrifices made to improve his mental health, that has since caused controversy, reflects on his decision to step down as a senior royal and move with his wife Meghan Markle and their son to California in 2020. He intends to turn his pain into purpose by sharing his experiences.

    “This book and its truths are in many ways a continuation of my own mental health journey. It’s a raw account of my life: the good, the bad, and everything in between.”

    Oklahoma Lawyer Arrested After Attempting To Pay To Rape 5-Year-Old In “To Catch A Predator” Style Sting

    On March 2nd, an Oklahoma lawyer was taken into custody after a sting operation proved his intent to rape a 5-year-old girl and “warm himself up” with child pornography, Fox News reported.

    Hidden cameras were placed within a Canadian County home after a confidential informant arranged a meeting with 55-year-old Michael Dwaine Lunday. “Lunday told the CI that he would bring condoms and lubrication to facilitate sexual intercourse,” the Canadian County Sheriff’s Office said. “Lunday agreed to meet the CI at a residence in Mustang in order to finalize the details prior to the purchase of the child for sex.”

    Footage from the hidden cameras captured the child predator stating that he preferred younger girls that he “wanted to watch child pornography before the child arrived in order to warm himself up and settle his nerves,” police documents state. During his arrest, a Target receipt showed that Lunday had purchased condoms and lubrication minutes before arriving to the CI’s house.

    Lunday has been charged with attempting lewd acts with a child under 12 and soliciting child prostitution. The lawyer is currently being held at the Canadian County Detention Facility, with a bond of a $200,000.

  • Polygamist Cult Leader With Nine Underaged Wives Used Jailhouse’s Phone To Have Sexual Conversations With Minors

    Polygamist Cult Leader With Nine Underaged Wives Used Jailhouse’s Phone To Have Sexual Conversations With Minors

    In September of 2022, Sam Bateman, a self-declared prophet of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (FLDS), was arrested for transporting minors in interstate commerce to engage in criminal sexual activity and traveling in interstate commerce to engage in illicit sexual conduct with minors. With an investigation ongoing about his marriage to twenty women, including nine minors, more charges are to follow.

    While in police custody and awaiting an upcoming trial, Bateman used the jailhouse phone system to “engage in sexual discussions with children,” federal prosecutors say. In these conversations with both a 13-year-old and a 16-year-old, he would reminisce about their past sexual encounters, make profane sexual remarks about their breasts and talk about his desire to sexually abuse them further. “Don’t you remember all those sacred times we spent together,” Bateman reportedly asked.

    According to Law And Crime, the conversations violated a Superior Court’s order that prohibited Bateman from all contact with his underaged victims. Government documents noted the violation, stating that the sexual predator “repeatedly misused detention facility communications systems in violation of policy.”

    After his trial was adjourned multiple times and was pushed back another year, Bateman is now scheduled to reappear in court March 5, 2024. The Arizona’s Department of Child Services has yet to comment on how the 13-year-old was able to contact Bateman while within their custody, and have not mentioned whether steps have been taken to prevent similar incidents from occurring in the future.

  • Hotel Sexual Assault Reports In Texas Increasing Due To Staff Giving Predators Access To Women’s Rooms

    Hotel Sexual Assault Reports In Texas Increasing Due To Staff Giving Predators Access To Women’s Rooms

    The number of cases where of women being raped in their rooms at popular hotel chains, due to employees handing over the keys to sexual predators unchecked, is increasing. According to New York Post, men were able to break into the room of women after lying to staff to obtain access to their rooms in three separate cases in Texas.

    In December of 2022, a guest at a Gonzales, Texas Holiday Inn Express & Suites woke up to a man standing at the end of her bed with his pants undone and a condom out. “She was able to scream and get him out of the room, and she immediately called down to the front desk,” the victim’s lawyer explained. “They admitted, ‘Oh yes, we did give a key to the man. He said he knew you.’” The suspect was later located and arrested and charged with attempted sexual assault.

    In Austin, Texas, Kathleen Dawson was found unconscious outside the the $500-a-night Hilton Americas Houston hotel she was staying at. When spotted, a concerned bystander notified police. Hotel staff and officers from Houston’s police department followed the instructions of Dawson’s coworker, who falsely claimed she was staying in his room. Without checking her room number, hotel staff put Dawson in a wheelchair and rolled her into her coworker’s room. She later woke up to the man raping her. In a civil suit, Dawson was awarded $44 million in damages.

    “Although Hilton typically does not comment on legal matters, we respectfully disagree with the jury’s verdict, and attest that our hotel team members acted at the direction of the Houston Police Department,” a spokesperson from the hotel chain explained.

    In January of this year, a woman staying at the DoubleTree Austin University Area Hotel saw a man’s hand pushing through the gap between the open door and trying to remove the safety latch. When she saw the man attempting to break in, she slammed the door on his finger, completely severing it off. After discovering that the man had been provided with a keycard to her room, the woman is now suing the hotel management company for $1 million.

  • Serial Killer Super Fan “Giggled” After Fatally Stabbing Boyfriend

    Serial Killer Super Fan “Giggled” After Fatally Stabbing Boyfriend

    In July of 2022, a 27-year-old woman in Havant, Hampshire slit the throat of her boyfriend before plunging the blade into his chest 17 times, The Telegraph reports.

    In her bedroom, which was decorated with framed photos of serial killers and weapons, Shaye Groves and Frankie Fitzgerald would have sex as they filmed. Both interested in BDSM, they would regularly videotape their sexual counters to imitate rape, despite it being consensual. Groves would later use the footage to claim self defense, but unedited versions refuted her claims.

    On the day of Fitzgerald’s death, Groves discovered that her boyfriend had been messaging who she mistakenly thought was a 13-year-old girl on social media. Though the individual had actually been 17, Groves acted out of jealousy and attacked Fitzgerald as he slept. Afterwards, she called a friend via video chat and “giggled” as she revealed the victim’s body.

    According to prosecutor Steven Perian, Groves used knowledge obtained from watching crime documentaries to portray herself as a victim of sexual violence. He says that “the defendant, by reading about and watching murder documentaries, she was familiar with crime scenes, how to create a false narrative, and how to set up a false alibi.”

    Despite her efforts, Groves was found guilty to murder following a trial. The 27-year-old has been sentenced to 23 years in prison.

  • Colorado Woman Pregnant By Middle Schooler Won’t Receive Jail Time

    Colorado Woman Pregnant By Middle Schooler Won’t Receive Jail Time

    A 31-year-old woman will not be facing jail time after becoming pregnant by a 13-year-old child in Fountain, Colorado, Fox 19 reported.

    In July if 2022, Andrea Serrano was arrested by the Fountain Police Department after having a sexual relationship with an early teen. The child rapist was facing multiple felony charges, including sexual assault on a child by one in a position of trust and sexual assault of a child. She has now accepted a plea deal with prosecutors that will lessen her charges and allow her to avoid jail time.

    “I feel like my son is robbed of his childhood,” the teenage victim’s mother explains. “Now he’s having to be a father. He’s a victim, and he’s going to have to live with that for the rest of his life.”

    The mother of the teen father is outraged at the decision, but is still fighting in court to gain custody of the baby to protect both the newborn and her son. She believes that the victim isn’t receiving justice due to his gender.

    “I feel like if she was a man and he was a little girl, it would definitely be different,” the teen’s mother explained. “They would be seeking more. I feel like because he is not a woman, they are not. They are having compassion for her.”

    The pedophile will be required to register as a sex offender, with the possibility of the judge sentencing her to 10 years to life on sex offender intensive supervised probation.

  • Toddler Fell Asleep In An Airbnb And Died From Fentanyl Overdose, And Now Her Family Is Suing

    Toddler Fell Asleep In An Airbnb And Died From Fentanyl Overdose, And Now Her Family Is Suing

    In August of 2021, a family from Guadeloupe rented a four-bedroom lake house in Wellington, Florida through Airbnb for a family vacation. After a morning of watching television and playing
    with her four siblings, Lydie Lavenir put her 19-month-old Enora down for a nap. Two hours later, when Lavenir went to check on her, she discovered that her toddler had passed away in her sleep, The Washington Post reported.

    “It’s like we fell into a trap,” Enora’s father, Boris Lavenir, explained.

    Both an autopsy by the Palm Beach County medical examiner and another independent toxicology determined that Enora’s system contained a lethal amount of fentanyl. Investigators initially suspected the baby’s parents, but were unable to find drugs among their belongings, and Lydie and Boris had tested negative.

    Previous renters of the property were questioned, and it was discovered that one of them had hosted a party where recreational drug use occurred. They admitted to using cocaine, but denied the use of fentanyl.

    “I am currently unable to determine how the child Enora Lavenir ingested the fentanyl,” an investigator wrote in the latest report. “Therefore I am unable to develop probable cause for abuse or neglect leading to the death of Enora. Currently the manner of death is listed as accidental.”

    The Palm Beach Sheriff’s Office has closed the case, but the parents of Enora are still seeking justice. The Lavenirs are now suing Airbnb, the property owner, the rental’s manager, and the renter who had hosted the party. They believe that the fentanyl that took the life of their child was left behind by partygoers, and not cleaned up after their departure.

    “Our hearts go out to the Lavenir family and their loved ones for their devastating loss,” Airbnb said in a statement.

    Lars Noah, a law professor at the University of Florida, says that the lawsuit against Airbnb is unlikely to make it to trial.

    “They can prove that the child died from fentanyl exposure, but where that fentanyl comes from, linking it to this particular group, that just sounds monstrously difficult under these circumstances.”
