Lancaster, California–Damn…it takes a special kind of loser to threaten the life of a teenager’s beloved dog. It takes an even bigger loser to threaten said teen with the torture of her pooch if she doesn’t put out. Authorities believe that Alfredo Dempkey did just that. The pup in question, a toy poodle/cocker spaniel mix named Pineapple, wandered away from her home last FridayFriday reviews evening. The teen was brokenhearted. Imagine her relief when she received a phone call the next day from a man who claimed to have found her precious pooch! That relief quickly faded to fear and disgust when the ass on the other end of the line revealed his demands for Pineapple’s safe return. [Read more...]

McCleary, WA–McCleary, with a population of 1,550, is a town where most residents feel comfortable allowing their children to play outside until dark. In a town that size, everybody knows everybody and there are very few secrets between neighbors. Needless to say, residents in that tiny town are in shock over the disappearance of 10-year-old Lindsey Baum. Lindsey was visiting a friend’s home FridayFriday reviews evening… her friend’s father, Scott Williams, said he asked Lindsey to go home before it got too dark. “She was here 10, 15 minutes, and then, you know, we said, ‘You should probably get going before it gets dark,’ and that was the last we heard of her,” he said. She was last seen at about 9:15 p.m., as she set off to walk the four blocks to her home…a 10-minute walk. Lindsey never made it home. [Read more...]

Palmetto, FL – There are some children in this world that have to overcome some pretty horrendous obstacles to make it to adulthood.  Things like abuse, neglect, poverty, soccer moms with a cell phone attached to one ear, a latte in the other, and a foot on the gas pedal trying to make an early morning pilates class – you know, the usual.  Then there are some that have the odds stacked against them even before they are thrust into this world naked, cold and hungry, some that never have a chance, some like the fetus Guadlia Bravo is carrying in her miserable womb.  Bravo seems to be as fertile as some freshly turned compost, but with the mothering instincts of a lump of dog shit. When her toddler was found wandering in a grocery store parking lot, Bravo, 7 months pregnant, was found tanked, sitting on a curb, getting her drink on.

Columbus, Ohio – Authorities went on a scavenger hunt late last week after an assistant manager for the West bay Apartments called 911. “Could you please send a detective or homicide detective over?” they asked, “We believe we have body parts in our pond and in one of our dumpsters.” It didn’t take authorities long to set up orange traffic cones and little flags all around the pond and the building after finding the reports were true. One guy interviewed seem to be thoroughly disgusted at the spectacle or perhaps it was disgust at the revelation of what had actually occurred. And it didn’t take long before investigators ended up at the residence of Robert Knight. Armed with a search warrant and perhaps a bit of an appetite, one detective opened his freezer only to find the regular frozen groceries – ice, popsicles, a head, a couple arms – you know, the normal stuff.

Hanover, Massachusetts–Her mother reported her missing at 1:00 SaturdaySaturday reviews afternoon…she had last been seen at 12:30. Police began a door-to-door search for the 6-year-old child when, about an hour after she was reported missing, an officer spotted her. She was bloodied and shackled at both ankles with an “official piece of equipment that you may have seen prisoners going in and out of courthouse in.” She had been riding her bicycle around her apartment complex when a monster grabbed her, carried her off into his lair, shackled her, and attempted to rape her. Somehow, the girl managed to escape her captor, 26-year-old Justin Shine.  [Read more...]

Charleston, West Virginia–OMFG. Demonites, I have been writing for this site for quite some time now. I have written about some pretty weird people doing some pretty bizarre things. It has gotten to the point where nothing shocks me…not eye-ball munchers, not horse fuckers, not even Destinie Duvall. But the Mallos? These fuckers threw me for a fucking loop. Never have I seen such dysfunction in one oddball family. You see, it all started with the death of Phyllis Phares. The 82-year-old woman was killed in her home on June 14. On June 15, authorities had a suspect in the murder, a 14-year-old boy who lived across the street from Phares. On June 17, the boy was charged with first-degree murder. He is also facing sexual assault charges in an unrelated case. That was just the beginning of the arrests….. [Read more...]

Martell, NE- How do you quiet a crying baby? Well, you could feed them, or rock them, or you could give them a homemade tongue piercing. I know the first two choices usually work, but the last one? Heh. You only do something like that if you want to spend some time in a concrete suite with iron landscaping and possibly,  just possibly, you hope to be one of the unfortunate few to have their ugly mug grace the front page of the illustrious Dreamin’ Demon. Seriously. It seems like people are killing for a chance to be up here. [Read more...]

Lake Ozark, MO- Spousal abuse is never funny. When I hear stories like this one, the first thing that comes to mind is how much I’d like to rip the perp a new one. Then I have to sit back and calmly sip the coffee SoJaded pours while I watch thinkgoat poke her finger in each doughnut to find the freshest one, and try to come up with an interesting twist to the article. It gets difficult sometimes, especially with a dictator like Morbid, who refuses to unlock our staff room door until everyone in his harem has produced something of quality that will entice your senses and get you to leave a comment or two. The power he has over us is strange, and may need to be investigated, but I will say that if you saw us foxy bitches in real life, you would consider him to be one helluva lucky bastard. So, here is the story. Let’s hope he lets me out of this crazy room before Unamused and RottenApple get bored and start photocopying their nether regions on the copier again. [Read more...]

Aiken, South Carolina Meet Erica. Her self-described MyspaceMySpace entry states her interests are kids, butterflies, and shopping. Her favorite television shows are American Idol, CSI, General Hospital, Dragon Tales (PBS), and The Big Comfy Couch (ABC Kids). Newly married and cute as a button, why parents would have a problem choosing her as their children’s daycare provider is beyond me. But I’m thinking, after her stint in prison, she might be looking for a new career other than running a daycare. Who the fuck knew that children cried and screamed? I mean, it’s not like that in any of those shows she watched. Well CSI maybe, but it’s never more than a minute or so and it just shows things that happen to other people, not this sweet Southern Belle. [Read more...]

On New Years Eve a mysterious signal begins transmitting through televisions, phones and radio.

St. Augustine, Florida–Raise your hand if you have ever accidentally locked your keys in your car with the engine still running. I have, and boy, was my face red. The folks at the DMV were probably wondering if it had been a wise decision to issue me a driver’s license that day. Now, raise your hand if you have ever accidentally locked your keys and your 2-year-old child in your car while the engine was still running. For six hours. In the middle of June. What’s this? None of you have ever done that? I didn’t think so. Well, Omar Long did, and little Arianna baked to death. [Read more...]

Onamia, Minnesota is about 32 miles SW of Brainerd, a name made famous for enough of us sick individuals who happened to enjoy the movie FargoFargo reviews. Onamia has a population of about 850 people and hopefully will be a couple less by the time this story plays out in the courtroom.  The participants are the quintessential features on the Dreamin’ Demon, the kind who fit the prerequisites:  selfish baby abusing motherfuckers with the propensity for criminal stupidity. I’m of course speaking of Lance Ballinger (23) and Kelly Friend, once boyfriend/girlfriend. Right now Lance is in a whole heap of trouble and with crossed fingers, Kelly will soon learn what it’s like when a mother makes shitty decisions regarding her children. [Read more...]

BALTIMORE COUNTY, Md. – Here’s a real nasty one for you to start off your SundaySunday reviews. After meeting in church, one woman offered to watch the other woman’s two small children – a 6-year-old girl and her 8-year-old brother – while she was at work during the day. This has been the arrangement for the last year with no reported problems. Until a few months ago when the mother of the two small children noticed some sores on her children. After some questioning, the woman learned that the sores were not natural as she had originally thought. Nope. She learned that the 16-year-old son of the woman watching her kids, Robbie Poellot, had been repeatedly raping her daughter and sodomizing her son. [Read more...]

Hobart, IN- “She was wearing an orange skirt and a tank top with orange and green stripes.” That was what 18-year old Engelico Castillo told the police on the night of June 16, when her 2-year old cousin, Jada Justice, went missing. Castillo said she went to a gas station in Gary and left Jada in her car-seat in the back seat of her unlocked vehicle while she went inside to purchase cigarettes and milk. When she returned, Jada was gone.  Panic engulfed the child’s family, police, and surrounding community as they searched for the missing child. Other customers at the gas station told police they saw no one around Castillo’s car that night. Police brought dogs to aid in the search, but found no scent of Jada in the area. Police also sought the assistance of other agencies, including the F.B.I. as well as the U.S. Marshal’s Service. A day after her supposed disappearance, Jada was still missing, despite a massive search that spanned two neighboring cities and lasted more than 18 hours. [Read more...]
