Rotten but still a little sweet! Rotten Mango is a true crime + all things spooky podcast. We love doing deep dives into the darkest crimes and we tend to not leave out any details - which can get a little rotten at times. If you want deep dives in the psychology of killers, no holding back storytelling of crimes, and stories of lesser known criminals from around the world this is the place for you.

They’re all wearing the same blue tracksuit. Thousands of them standing out in the middle of the woods wearing the same thing. What is this place?

 

They’re out in the middle of the woods - in what appears to be a small secretive city? A military base? How did they get 60+ buildings out here in the middle of the forest?

 

And that giant wall… it’s 30 feet tall. Tall enough to keep people out. Or keep them in. 

 

The guards are watching each of the track suit wearing people with precision. One wrong move and you get beat. That’s when they hear it… 

 

The man starts running up onto the roof of one of the buildings - and there he goes. He flies off the top and lands in front of everyone. On his head. 

 

Someone standing right there says - “honestly, I didn’t know the sound of someone’s head exploding could make such a loud splitting sound. I saw his skull explode open.”

 

A guard member walks out and sweeps up his brains and bones as if nothing happened. Sounds familiar doesn’t it? It kind of sounds like the plot of one of the most famous series on Netflix, Squid Game.

 

But it’s not. 

 

This is the real life case of the Brother’s Home in South Korea. 

The true story behind Squid Game.

The Real Life "Squid Game" - Thousands Of Koreans Forced To Play Children's Games To NOT Be Killed

Daisy's Destruction - the 1-hour long video with 3 adults torturing an infant (18-month-old Daisy) was released onto the dark web in 2012.

To most of us, it sounded like an urban legend, but to a lot of twisted people in the world, it was worth the $10,000 viewing price. 

Today's episode enters the world of the dark web "Pedo-Empire" and you would never believe who's behind the screen.

#26- Daisy's Destruction - Dark Web "Pedo-Empire"

A family begged their community to help find their missing 16 year old daughter. #FindBecky started trending on social media. Nobody was prepared to find out that - 

A 16 year old schoolgirl had been brutally murdered in her own room, decapitated, dismembered, and placed into suitcases. 

Not long after 6 people were arrested - 2 of them are family members.

#57: The Kidnap Kit (Case of Becky Watts)

A massive 3 story sanatorium in the isolated woods of Washington. The whispers about what goes on in there - I heard she buries another patient every single day. If you walk past it the scary doctor might snatch you, lock you in a room, and starve you to death. 

Sounds like campfire scary stories? But what if it’s not. What if this is one of America’s worst female serial killers?

#58: Dr. Starvation The Serial Killer (Linda Hazzard & Belle Gunness)

Did you know pigs will eat anything?

The Pickton Pig Farm - was isolated, private, had its own slaughterhouse equipped with commercial freezers, and hundreds of very hungry pigs. 

The farm was well known by locals for many things - mainly the smell that radiated from it… but soon it would be known by the whole world. 

For where 49 women get murdered…

Bbzzz - when the buzzer goes off they know it’s game time. The high contact sport of water polo begins. 

For the next few hours - they attack, get dragged underwater, and they try to win at all costs.

And then afterward the team will reward themselves with shots at the bars. Keli was nervous.

She didn’t know how to sneak out of the party early without anyone knowing. But what choice did she have?

She was going to give birth tonight. In secret. For the second time.

#120: The Olympian Mommy Killer (Case of Keli Lane & Her Secret Kids)

There is a college student laying down on the hospital bed. She’s staring up at the ceiling in distress as someone records her silently from the corner of the room. 

“I’m going to have such a long day tomorrow - I’m not going to answer anyone’s Snapchats!”

The person recording does not respond. 

“Well, you’re too quiet. I’m going to start singing since I hate the quiet.” 

The girl gets up in the hospital bed to perform Justin Bieber’s “Intentions.” She’s whipping her head around like she’s giving a stage performance on tour. She just doesn’t understand why the man in the room with her is so stiff. Loosen up. Have some fun. 

He snaps at her - “you want me to be honest with you? You’re going to jail. You don’t have bond. You killed two people tonight. That’s what’s going on. So no, you’re not going to school tomorrow.”

This is the case of Stephanie Melgoza - the college student who killed two people and proceeded to complain the whole time about how she needed to go to class, told the officers about how excited she was for her Vegas trip, and sang songs at the crime scene.

#384: Drunk College Girl Kills 2 People Then Sings Justin Bieber Songs & Plays Dumb

Grandma C knew that something wasn’t right about what she was looking at. Her daughter is standing there holding her 2-month-old baby. But everything is wrong. 

Her daughter’s pants are soaked in urine. 

The way she’s talking sounds like someone clamped her tongue, and two-month-old baby Mirabelle is not moving. 

In fact, Mirabelle’s little face is bright angry red and her body seems stiff. 

Grandma C rushes to put her down and unzips baby Mirabelle’s onesie… 

She’s peeling. The skin on her entire body is peeling. 

Mirabelle’s mom starts to explain that she must have suffered a stroke while holding her baby and fell on top of her… onto the space heater. Squashing her baby into the space heater and burning her. 

But when authorities arrive - they start to think differently. 

Because Mirabelle’s injuries are not consistent with someone who has been burned by a space heater. Also, why was her little purple pacifier found in the microwave?

#385: Mom Microwaved 2-Month-Old Baby For 5 Minutes While Having A Seizure

“To Catch A Predator” steps:

 1. Hire an adult decoy to lurk on websites advertising themselves as 13 year olds looking for a middle aged companion.
 2. Invite the adult predator to a house that has been wired for audio and video recording.
 3. Have the host of the famous TV show pop out to ask the predator questions and arrest them on the way out.

That is the premise to the show “To Catch A Predator” that has now been cancelled for its moral dilemmas. 

But now influencers are recreating the show themselves on their platforms. Luring in predators, confronting them, and then calling the police. 

That’s what 17 year old Gavon tells the cops was his plan… He met up with a middle aged man on Grindr for the purpose of robbing him because he deserves it. Why else would he talk to a minor?

But for the police to believe his side of the story they have to go through his phone… and that’s where they find a folder titled - “Dark.” 

The password? “Murder.” 

Suddenly a simple robbery case turns into a murder investigation because in it… are videos and photos of 17 year old Gavon Ramsay killing and SAing a 98 year old woman in her own home. Gavon Ramsay is the predator.

#406: 16-Yr-Old Murders 98-Yr-Old Woman To SA Her Corpse For 2 Hours While Recording

The man in the olive green jacket is ready. Today is the day. He’s nervously walking through the crowd of New Yorkers to get to his destination. 

The last thing he needs is to get stopped by anyone - especially the NYPD. 

A man passes by him muttering - 

“Bro, idk if you should be doing this but your life choice I guess?”

Another citizen points and squeals - 

“He’s the one! He’s the one!”

With that.. the man in the jacket smiles. He is contestant number 6 in the lookalike contest for the shooter that killed Brian Thompson. The CEO of United Health Care. 

This man just won $50. 

How is it that a man is shot and killed in the middle of Manhattan in broad daylight, his body hasn’t even been laid to rest yet, and the shooter is still on the run… and yet. 

There is a lookalike contest for the killer?

Most Americans have been asking themselves this past week - who really is the true victim here?

Is it the one that was shot and killed?

Or is it the shooter himself?

Or is it all of us?
