Casselberry, FL – Nioshka Bello is considered by neighbors to be an excellent and doting mother. That’s weird, because based on the fact that her mugshot and story are being featured here on the Dreamin’ Demon, you gotta figure that the chick is lacking in the most basic of parenting skills. Nioshka used to have a 2-year-old daughter named Janessa Sandoval, who, according to neighbors, was very well kept, doted upon, and happy. That happy little girl is dead – her mommy strangled her with a bra. Yes, Nioshka managed to rid this earth of one more toddler, but failed miserably when it came to taking her own life.

Dallas, TX – Most of us have been through it.  The end of a serious relationship or marriage.  You know, things didn’t work out and its time to cut your losses and split.  Some of us don’t part ways on good terms.  You know how it can be, your every waking minute is consumed with thoughts of revenge, plotting and scheming on how you can make them pay.  Wondering which cables belong to the brakes and exactly how much damage a brick to the back of the skull will actually cause.  Pondering exactly how tamper proof those pesky tamper proof seals are, and googling their drive from home to work every day.  You’ll show him that you don’t take these things lightly.  Besides, his taste in music and movies suck and he was lucky you ever gave him the time of day… Wait, what was I talking about?  Oh yeah, bad break-ups and thoughts of revenge.  Point is, we never do it.  As much as we want them to hurt, we once loved them and those pesky good memories always get in the way. Right?  Well, not for every one.  When Gary Green found out that his wife, Lovetta Armstead was seeking  divorce, he decided everyone had to die, including her innocent children. [Read more...]

Westminster, CA – “Hi. I just stabbed my daughters and myself.” Those were the words spoken by 38-year-old Thuy Le, very calmly I might add, after getting all stabby on her two kiddos Wednesday morning. “It’s all bloody,” she said. The 911 dispatcher, a little taken aback by Le’s somewhat relaxed demeanor, asked Le why she was so calm. I guess that usually, after going completely off the deep end and poking at your spawn with sharp pointy things, most people are a little more freaked out. Le replied, somewhat snottily, “What? Oh my god. Are you coming?” Yep. They were coming. When police arrived on the scene, they found Le clutching her bloody 3-year-old daughter. Worse, they found Le’s other daughter, just 5-years-old, unconscious, covered in blood, and suffering a stab wound to the chest.  [Read more...]

Quincy, Massachusetts – “City of Legends”and “Birthplace of the American Dream” are just a couple examples of nicknames for this historic community in the Southeastern part of the state. The city is divided up into many different established neighborhoods with individual histories and characteristics. Scrolling through the names and descriptions of these sections, one clearly gets a great sense of pride and community spirit. No where could I find the area that might house the uber rich or the extremely impoverished. I’m pretty sure they’re not closely mixed though. Where do the really twisted fuckers live in Quincy and what do they do to get their jollies off in such a stodgy town? The closest I could come to answering that question was the story of Joseph Beatty and his little experiment with necrophilia. [Read more...]

Gary, IN - Have I mentioned lately how much I hate people? Really – I do. Especially people like Cordell Richardson. When the mother of his child mentioned that she would be moving out of state and taking the kiddo with her, Cordell came unhinged. Instead of taking it like a man, he threw a ginormous hissy fit – telling a friend that, “nobody is going to take my daughter away.” After spending a day with his daughter, 18-month-old Eboni Richardson, Cordell refused to give the child back to her mother. After much begging and pleading with the asshole to return the child, Cordell agreed to meet with his brother-in-law, Jamell Campbell, in the parking lot of a Bennigan’s restaurant Thursday evening, to transfer custody of Eboni. As Jamell approached Cordell’s vehicle, he saw a flash and heard two gunshots. Yep. One for Eboni and one for Cordell. Little Eboni was shot in the stomach and was later pronounced dead at the hospital. Cordell, unfortunately, survived the bullet to his head and remains hospitalized in intensive care. And honestly, I hope he fully recovers and continues to live a long life. I’d love to think that he will be haunted by the face of his dead baby girl every single hour of every single day for the next 50-60 years. Cordell Richardson, 22, if convicted on the murder charge, faces up to 65 years in prison. [Read more...]

St. Paul, Minnesota Unless you live under a rock with no television, radio, get no newspapers, etc. you’ve heard about the “KingKing reviews of Pop’s” timely demise. (oops, damn typos) The media’s coverage of crying/fainting hoards of people flocking to and fro to get a glimpse of the glitterati browsing for the appropriate clothing to wear, or perhaps the brothers shopping for one white sequined glove to carry his final chariot, has been enough to make me want to break my TV. The talk of a memorial service at the Neverland Ranch brought that 4 syllable location back into the forefront and young children asking their parents, “What’s Neverland?” And if any parents were like Patricia Becht, they tried to give a sense of peace while plotting the murder of their children at that very location.

Chandler, AZ – I’m assuming everyone has heard of the “Darwin AwardsThe Darwin Awards reviews“.  The actual awards are given to those who have taken themselves out of the gene pool by ridiculous and more often than not, preventable accidents. In other words, idiots who remove all doubt.  ”Honorable mentions” are awarded to the survivors. Folks, we have ourselves a fine candidate for “honorable mention”. Nathan Ryan, obviously at wit’s end with his life, decided upon a well-laid suicide plan, McGyver style. Armed with a 24″ sword, a tee shirt and a motor vehicle, he set his plan in action.

…from 5 stories up.

Jessica Marie Clyburn (MyspaceMySpace)

Rock Hill, SC–Jessica Clyburn, 22, has some issues. In August of 2008, Jessica took a flying leap from five stories up. She landed on a canopy, a canvas awning,  four stories down. At the time, Jessica was 8-months pregnant. She survived the suicide attempt…the baby didn’t. Jessica jumped out of the window because she feared her live-in boyfriend, the baby’s father, was going to leave her.

Deerfield Beach, FL–Sabrina Garcia, 6, holding her cut wrist, told authorities, ‘I was sleeping with my mom and then she cut me with a knife, but I know she didn’t mean to do it.’ Her mother, 40-year-old Silvia Garcia, in a fit of resentment and jealousy, slashed her child’s wrist and thigh in an attempt to kill the child before taking her own life.

Port St. Lucie, FL–Not only is 31-year-old Eryn Allegra a selfish bitch, she’s a cold-hearted bitch. She planned and carried out the murder of her 8-year-old son, Tristan Allegra. She took away his life in the early morning hours of Christmas day in what authorities are calling a botched murder-suicide.

Warren, MI – Tanya Laura Friedly, 32, tried to kill herself and her two children on Tuesday.  And if not for the quick action of Friedly’s 13-year-old son, she probably would have succeeded.   After pulling her kids out of school Tuesday morning, Friedly made the kids hot chocolate laced with prescription drugs.  She then left her son and ten-year-old daughter in the downstairs living room, went upstairs, and set the house on fire.

L to R: Edgar Manuel Sanchez, Josie Navarro (MyspaceMySpace) and an unidentified man

Pomona, CA – Edgar Manuel Sanchez was five years old.  He’d done nothing wrong.  But that didn’t stop his mother, Josie Navarro, from drowning him in a hotel bathtub on Monday.   Police were called to the Pomona hotel by a desk clerk, who said that they had been notified that a woman in one of the rooms was trying to kill herself.

Paterson, NJ - I have no idea what Gloria Arroyo was thinking last night.  Neither, apparently, does anyone else.   Seven-month-old Jose Bell Jr., called “Baby 8″ or “Ocho”, was dead when police arrived at Arroyo’s home at about 10:30 last night.    Gloria Arroyo, 18, called “Pichy” (like “peachy”), had stabbed her son multiple times to the chest and turned the knife on herself.  She’sShe reviews not dead, but her baby sure is.  [Read more...]

Belanger, 18, had stabbed his psychotherapist in the torso and then attempted to slit his own throat. Mattian, 53, was pronounced dead a short time later.
