The Creepy Burrito

A not so happy Valentine's day.... we're here to break hearts then lift you up. 

Tis the season of love, perfect time for a little bloody valentine.  On June 23rd 1993 in Manassas, Virginia was the home of Lorena and John Wayne Bobbitt.  Love was definitely lost that night, John passed out after another night of drinking but would awake to a frightening site.  Lorena had woke up for a simple glass of water, when she returned to the bedroom with a carving knife to do the unthinkable…. She didn't kill him but definitely removed a prized possession that would surprisingly lead to John Wayne Bobbitt's 15 minutes of fame.  Why did she do it? Why did this story captivate so many? Why is John such a douche?   Please be advised in this episode contains sensitive content related to domestic violence.

Betty Lou had a rather rough upbringing and suffered mental and physical abuse throughout her entire life, but does that give her justification to kill?

Was Betty just an abuse victim that finally had enough or was she a cold blooded black widow that spun a web full of lies and deceit.

Over the years Robert has been blamed for car accidents, broken bones, job loss, divorce and a plethora of other misfortunes all because he is very particular about having his picture taken. Ask the thousands of people who have visited him, they'll all tell you the same thing... Robert did it.
