Apparently this serial killer / rapist isn't well known, probably because they didn't figure out his crimes were connected until they did DNA analysis in 2001. He was quite young when he started his crime spree, according to witnesses, which makes it likely he is still alive and in his early 60s today.

This one I never heard about, weird and recent: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metcalf_sniper_attack

This guy used to stalk me on IMDB and twitter, as he really disliked me. He's currently facing a potential 20 years in federal prison.

Looks the part. Go on...

Nothing to tell really. He was a well known troll on IMDB who was always reporting threads via socks and whatnot. He didn't like me because I highlighted one of his sock accounts, where he was imitating a poster who had died. The poster had been only 18 and all, had died of drowning and Joshua was making fun of his death. Anyway, he really went nuts when I exposed his sock account and stalked me for quite some time, reporting posts etc. I think I still have a bunch of weirdo IMDB pm's from him from ages ago actually.

He's currently incarcerated now undergoing a psyche evaluation to see if he's fit for trial. There's allegations that he inspired/incited the Garland attack, so if they mange to pin that one on him, Josh may be going away for quite some time. I had no idea he was so young at the time. He's actually pretty disturbed and should be in some form of institution at least, imo.

He went under the name of Madotsuki the Dreamer on IMDB and there was quite a bit of gossip about him on several boards after his arrest.

He even boasted about his antics on IMDB simply by reporting on the "Australian Jihadist" actions under his madostuki account, but the thread's been deleted.

Crater Lake is really cool, definitely worth a visit. That reminds me of Clear Lake in Oregon. There's a petrified forest underwater that is somehow creepy every time I'm canoeing over it.

That does sound creepy indeed! We didn't make it to Crater Lake unfortunately. One for the next visit.

20 years seems a bit much. 'murica tho.

Casu marzu (also called casu modde, casu cundídu, casu fràzigu in Sardinian, or in Italian formaggio marcio, "rotten cheese",) is a traditional Sardinian sheep milk cheese, notable for containing live insect larvae (maggots).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirahã_people

"The Pirahã people are an indigenous hunter-gatherer group of the Amazon Rainforest. As of 2010, they number 420 individuals."

"As far as the Pirahã have related to researchers, their culture is concerned solely with matters that fall within direct personal experience, and thus there is no history beyond living memory."

"One of the strongest Pirahã values is no coercion; you simply don't tell other people what to do. There appears to be no social hierarchy; the Pirahã have no formal leaders."

"The Pirahã have no concept of a supreme spirit or god. They require evidence based on personal experience for every claim made."

It's not like the petrified underwater forest at Clear Lake is scary or anything, it's just weird. Also fishing at that lake is like cheating because the water is so clear you can see and target trout like 25 feet down (they don't allow motors on the lake).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coywolf

Coywolf (sometimes called woyote) is an informal term for a canid hybrid descended from coyotes and one of three other North American Canis species, the gray, eastern and red wolf. Coyotes are closely related to eastern and red wolves, having diverged 150,000–300,000 years ago and evolved side by side in North America, thus facilitating hybridization.[1] In contrast, hybrids between coyotes and gray wolves, which are Eurasian in origin and diverged from coyotes 1–2 million years ago, are extremely rare.

Guiding is unpredictable and is more common among immatures and females than adult males. A guiding bird attracts a person's attention with wavering, chattering "'tya' notes compounded with peeps or pipes",[3] sounds it also gives in aggression. The guiding bird flies toward an occupied hive (greater honeyguides know the sites of many hives in their territories) and then stops and calls again. As in other situations, it spreads its tail, showing the white spots, and has a "bounding, upward flight to a perch", which make it conspicuous. If the followers are native honey-hunters, when they reach the hive they incapacitate the adult bees with smoke and open the hive with axes or pangas (machetes). After they take the honey, the honeyguide eats whatever is left.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hangul

The Korean writing system is only about 550 years old and wasn't widely adopted until the 1970s. Korean used to be Kanji, but the current system consists of 24 letters. I find it fascinating the there is a Hangul Day in Korea, which is a day off work. They are pretty proud of their writing system. I've met more than one Korean who proudly told me the history of the writing.

Indeed amazing. If they ever track him down it would probably make for a great movie.

Somewhat similar, police men responded to a burglary in Düsseldorf, Germany this year and the tenant confessed she's been living under a false name for decades. Pretty random way to break the news, isn't it.

She is no criminal so authorities weren't actively looking for her - family must've assumed she was murdered.

Interesting true-crime story from 1974 that I don't think I've ever heard of before:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/And_the_Sea_Will_Tell

Read it way back when!

Great for 2+2!

I'm not as well versed in 2+2 lore as I should be. Almost tylertwo killer?

i think tyler told a story of running into a serial killer or something on a camping trip.
i dont really remember the details.

It was Ted Bundy

Whoah, Ted Bundy!

Thanks for the link BS.

Well, seems to me I'm not into twoplustwolore as well. I had Charles Manson in mind, but it was Ted Bundy of course.

Dumb.

Just heard about this on a 99% Invisible podcast.

Cult-like commune sets up in rural Oregon after being kicked out of India. After getting pushback on their incorporation (which was to get around zoning laws) they get....aggressive with the neighboring communities.
