Hi, to our lovely True Crimer's, thanks for listening and please help us spread the word by telling your friends and family about us.this is going to be another horrific one, thanks to Kim.trigger warning this is horrible as usual, and there is a little child involved, so if you can not stomach child abuse, please tune in next week for a more laid back episode.Elisa Izquierdo (Feb 11, 1989 – Nov 22, 1995) was a precious, innocent six-year-old Puerto Rican–Cuban-American little girl who died of a brain hemorrhage inflicted by her dreadful mother, Awilda Lopez.This all occurred at the height of a prolonged & increasing rampage of physical, mental, emotional, and sexual child abuse that took place between 1994 and 1995.It was described by authorities in NYC as the "worst case of child abuse they had ever seen."The life and death of Elisa Izquierdo first made national headlines when it became clear that the city's child welfare system, had missed many chances to intervene with her family and save her life.These failures to protect Elisa, became the inspiration for Elisa's Law, and increased accountability of all parties involved in child welfare within the city Elisa's Law was implemented in February 1996.Elisa has been referred to as a modern-day Cinderella because she had at first been under the protection of a loving father and had befriended Prince Michael of Greece, who had offered to pay for her private tuition until 12th grade—before being placed into the permanent custody of her mother.This terrible tale is unfortunately a true one.

September 1934,The lower half of a woman's torso, with her thighs attached, was found amputated at the knees, She was washed up on the shores of Lake Erie just east of Bratenahl. she had some sort of chemical preservative on her skin which had turned it red, tough and leathery.She was named the Lady of the Lake, and also dubbed victim 0, as she was added to the body count at a later date.Over the next few years decapitated and dismembered bodies were found in various forms all around Cleveland.body parts in bags, boxes, and baskets, and other random packaging were turning up everywhere, heads and torso’s littered the landscape.In all the Mad Butcher of Kingsbury Run is said to have killed 13 victims, including the lady of the lake.I believe this number to be far greater, and believe that the Lady of the Lake was not his first victim.Kim and I discuss many aspects and have a stab at profiling this vicious killer, who was never brought to justice.The Mad butcher is an intriguing case that I hope is some day solved.Kim and I are eager to hear your thoughts on this and encourage you to email us at podcast@solvedunsolvedorspooky.comPlease donate to the podcast, as your support is needed to help us to buy much needed sound equipment, and to help with the costs associated with producing the show.There are a number of tiers on podfan, starting as low as $3.00 per month, simply click on the link and offer your much appreciated support, we will be calling your names out on the show in gratitude for your help.thanks for listening, please leave a review on apple podcast , this makes it easier for others to find us and please share us with your friends and family.References:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleveland_Torso_Murdererhttps://www.clevelandpolicemuseum.org/collections/torso-murders/https://criminalminds.fandom.com/wiki/The_Mad_Butcher_of_Kingsbury_RunPhotographs and additional reading.https://www.cleveland.com/life-and-culture/erry-2018/10/55d2b5ea596983/clevelands-infamous-torso-murd.htmlResources:https://www.health.nsw.gov.au/mentalhealth/Pages/contact-service.aspx#24-hourhttps://www.beyondblue.org.auhttps://www.betterhelp.comThanks for listening : we are eager to hear your stories, so if you have any listener stories for the show, please email us at podcast@solvedunsolvedorspooky.comFind us at:Instagram: SolvedunsolvedorspookyFacebook: Solvedunsolvedorspooky Email us at: podcast@solvedunsolvedorspooky.comSupport the show (https://pod.fan/solved-unsolved-or-spooky)Support the show (https://pod.fan/solved-unsolved-or-spooky)

He was diagnosed as a paranoid schizophrenic by court psychiatrists and sentenced to the State Hospital as a criminally insane juvenile.Released at the age of 21 after convincing psychiatrists he was rehabilitated, Kemper was regarded as non-threatening by his future victims. He targeted female hitchhikers during his killing spree, taking them into his vehicle and driving them to secluded areas where he would murder them before taking their corpses back to his home to be decapitated, dismembered, and violated. Kemper then murdered his mother and one of her friends before turning himself in to the authorities.Found sane and guilty at his trial in 1973, he received eight concurrent life sentences. Since then, he has been incarcerated in the California Medical Facility.References: https://murderpedia.org/male.K/k/kemper-edmund.htmhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edmund_Kemperhttps://www.biography.com/crime-figure/edmund-kemperhttps://www.crimeandinvestigation.co.uk/crime-files/edmund-kemperhttps://positivenegativeimpact.com/ed-kemper-facthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTnEY8y-p7MPhotographs and additional reading.https://murderpedia.org/male.K/k/kemper-edmund-photos.htmResources:https://www.health.nsw.gov.au/mentalhealth/Pages/contact-service.aspx#24-hourhttps://www.beyondblue.org.auhttps://www.betterhelp.comThanks for listening : we are eager to hear your stories, so if you have any listener stories for the show, please email us at podcast@solvedunsolvedorspooky.comFind us at:Twitter: #OrsolvedInstagram: SolvedunsolvedorspookyFacebook: Solvedunsolvedorspooky Email us at: podcast@solvedunsolvedorspooky.comSupport the show (https://pod.fan/solved-unsolved-or-spooky)

She was born around 1620 in Palermo and was possibly the daughter of Thofania d'Adamo, who was executed in Palermo on 12 July 1633, accused of having murdered her husband Francis. Tofana was described as beautiful, and she spent a lot of time with apothecaries, was present when they made their potions, and eventually developed her own poison, Aqua Tofana. It is, however, also possible that it was her mother, Thofania d'Adamo, who made the poison and passed the recipe on to her daughter. She began to sell this poison to women who wanted to escape abusive husbands. Her daughter, Girolama Spera, was also active in this. She eventually moved her business to Naples and Rome.Giulia was sympathetic to the low status of women and most often sold her poison to women trapped in unhealthy and dangerous marriages. She became known as a friend to the troubled wife and received many referrals.her business was finally revealed to the Papal cops by a customer. She escaped to a church, where she was granted sanctuary. When a rapid rumour, claiming that she had poisoned the water, tore through Rome, the police forced their way into the church and dragged Tofana in for questioning.Under torture, she confessed to murdering 600 men with her poisons in Rome alone between 1633 and 1651, but this cannot be confirmed owing to the torture and the widespread distribution of the poison. She was ultimately executed in Rome, together with her daughter (Girolama Spera, known as "Astrologa della Lungara") and three helpers, in July 1659. After her death, her body was thrown over the wall of the church that had provided her with sanctuary. Some of the users and purveyors were also arrested and executed, while other accomplices were encased in the dungeons of the Palazzo Pucci.References:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giulia_Tofanahttps://www.syfy.com/syfywire/giulia-tofana-the-italian-serial-poisoner-who-became-a-legendhttps://allthatsinteresting.com/giulia-tofanaPhotographs and additional reading.https://www.pinterest.com/pin/573153490051185779/https://allthatsinteresting.com/giulia-tofanaResources:https://www.health.nsw.gov.au/mentalhealth/Pages/contact-service.aspx#24-hourhttps://www.beyondblue.org.auhttps://www.betterhelp.comThanks for listening : we are eager to hear your stories, so if you have any listener stories for the show, please email us at podcast@solvedunsolvedorspooky.comHope you all have a Great New year and incredible 2021.Find us at:Twitter: #OrsolvedInstagram: SolvedunsolvedorspookyFacebook: Solvedunsolvedorspooky Email us at: podcast@solvedunsolvedorspooky.comSupport the show (https://pod.fan/solved-unsolved-or-spooky)Support the show (https://pod.fan/solved-unsolved-or-spooky)

Show notes:The Ararat lunatic asylum opened in 1867, 205 Kms away from Melbourne.It was used to relieve the prison system of those that were thought to be the most criminally insane and irreparably evil. it housed 1000 patients and 500 staff and had about 100 deaths a year.Today the building is used for ghost tours, visitors report unexpected fainting, feelings of nausea and pains, ominous smells and “methodical banging sounds” like patients hitting their head against walls.some visitors have reported feelings of being “shoved and bitten,” and have heard sounds of shrieking voices, ticking clocks, and have also had electric interference with cameras and other electrical equipment. The asylum has 60 buildings and out of these, the ‘J Ward’ was known for housing Ararat’s most infamous patients, one of the most prominent being Bill Wallace.In 1926.Bill Wallace was suspected of murdering a man in a café in Melbourne for smoking a cigarette.Wallace refused to answer any questions or talk about the crime. there were no witnesses and he did not admit to the crime, Wallace was found unfit to plead and was declared insane by 2 Doctors.there is so much more in this episode.References:https://llifs.com.au/blog/aradale-lunatic-asylum/https://ischool.sjsu.edu/mara-blog/haunting-national-film-and-sound-archivehttps://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-04-01/archives-haunted-reputation-born-from-history-of-death/7291506https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garry_Davidthehistoryblog.comPhotographs and additional reading.https://images.app.goo.gl/mMrhnwRdx3VNjDhy8https://images.app.goo.gl/WoZTw5Jy6T4YQpcX6https://images.app.goo.gl/i5E6jmgyyF6pk5rv7https://images.app.goo.gl/iTKg6ybDL1qrg2P9AResources:https://www.health.nsw.gov.au/mentalhealth/Pages/contact-service.aspx#24-hourhttps://www.beyondblue.org.auhttps://www.betterhelp.comThanks for listening : we are eager to hear your stories, so if you have any listener stories for the show, please email us at podcast@solvedunsolvedorspooky.comFind us at:Twitter: #OrsolvedInstagram: SolvedunsolvedorspookyFacebook: Solvedunsolvedorspooky Email us at: podcast@solvedunsolvedorspooky.comSupport the show at: https://pod.fan/solved-unsolved-or-spookySupport the show (https://pod.fan/solved-unsolved-or-spooky)
