00:01:10.860 Welcome to TopLobster.com, the ultimate middle finger to people who hate you anyway.

00:01:17.020 Do you want to turn their mild annoyance into a full-blown meltdown?

00:01:20.400 We're not talking about polite little digs.

00:01:22.840 I'm talking about offensive, off-the-page comments that scream,

00:01:26.860 you can't censor me.

00:01:28.320 You can't tell me what to say.

00:01:30.420 I'd apologize, but I don't think you'd believe me.

00:01:34.100 And frankly, I just don't care what you think.

00:01:36.820 At TopLobster.com, we know one thing.

00:01:40.660 Playing nice is overrated.

00:01:43.000 We push all the buttons.

00:01:44.580 We cross all the lines.

00:01:46.240 We dot all the I's. 0.95

00:01:47.480 And we live in that sweet spot where your style and your words hit like a sledgehammer on the head of your favorite politician.

00:01:54.420 So why play it safe when you can blow it up entirely? 0.99

00:01:57.060 If you're too retarded to stop and you're too real to worry about being liked by everybody, 0.99

00:02:02.460 well, you just found your favorite website. 0.98

00:02:05.480 Go to TopLobster.com, grab a shirt, grab a hoodie, grab a sweater.

00:02:09.100 That'll make your family members scream. 0.61

00:02:10.960 Because if they hate you already, you might as well give them something spectacular to complain about.

00:02:15.440 TopLobster.com. 0.99

00:02:16.780 Too retarded to stop. 1.00

00:02:18.420 I dare you to wear it. 0.99

00:02:19.680 What's up, guys?

00:02:23.860 We're back with the Sunday Share episode.

00:02:25.980 And this week we have Austin Picard, one of our favorite people.

00:02:31.060 I was cruising through his podcast, The Underclass Podcast, and I came across this episode.

00:02:37.280 And I thought it would be great for our listeners.

00:02:40.020 It really ties together some missing holes and things that we speak about.

00:02:45.140 It's just an all-around very interesting episode.

00:02:48.120 It's about a bunch of serial killers.

00:02:49.160 But, I mean, you guys are going to get into it in a minute.

00:02:52.100 Austin can be found on The Underclass Podcast.

00:02:55.280 He also does a show with Jose Galizan called Already Dead.

00:03:00.300 Jose's the homie from Tower Gang, and he's also been on a couple of times. 0.84

00:03:04.160 Austin has been on a few times as well, and I think he'll be a continuing guest in the near future

00:03:09.360 because the expertise and the information that he brings is just second to none.

00:03:13.880 The guy really does his homework.

00:03:15.160 So, he was kind enough to give us this episode to air to our people.

00:03:19.840 And hopefully you guys go over there and follow him and see whatever he's doing

00:03:23.080 because we really need people like that in the community.

00:03:26.600 But anyway, without further ado, here is episode 53 of The Underclass Podcast,

00:03:32.000 The Ultimate Evil Process Church of the Final Judgment.

00:03:35.360 Enjoy.

00:03:46.760 Welcome to The Underclass Podcast with Austin Picard.

00:03:50.100 I'm an independent researcher who can't stomach being lied to on a daily basis by the mainstream media

00:03:56.260 while we live in a fracturing society launched into parallel realities,

00:04:01.360 falling perfectly onto the two sides of the political spectrum.

00:04:05.260 I remain in The Underclass.

00:04:07.380 A U.S. Navy psychologist, who claims that the Office of Naval Intelligence

00:04:17.440 had taken convicted murderers from military prisons,

00:04:21.860 used behavior modification techniques on them,

00:04:25.380 and then relocated them in American embassies throughout the world.

00:04:29.000 The Navy psychologist was Lieutenant Thomas Nerut

00:04:34.220 of the U.S. Regional Medical Center in Naples, Italy.

00:04:38.820 The information was divulged at an Oslo NATO conference

00:04:42.700 of 120 psychologists from the 11-Nation Alliance.

00:04:47.340 The Navy provided all the funding necessary, according to Nerut.

00:04:51.600 Dr. Nerut, in a question-and-answer session with reporters from many nations,

00:04:56.560 revealed how the Navy was secretly programming large numbers of assassins.

00:05:02.560 He said that the men he had worked with for the Navy

00:05:05.840 were being prepared for commando-type operations,

00:05:09.200 as well as covert operations in U.S. embassies worldwide.

00:05:14.500 He described the men who went through his program as hitmen and assassins

00:05:19.100 who would kill on command.

00:05:22.100 Careful screening of the subjects was accomplished by Navy psychologists

00:05:26.080 through the military records,

00:05:28.300 and many were convicted murderers serving military prison sentences.

00:05:33.080 The Ionia State Mental Hospital in Michigan

00:05:36.220 was later exposed as being one of many facilities

00:05:40.000 complicit in the CIA's human behavioral modification research,

00:05:44.760 otherwise known as MKUltra mind control experiments.

00:05:49.360 Convicted serial killer Henry Lee Lucas

00:05:51.800 is largely considered to have been one of many criminally insane patients

00:05:55.860 who were unknowingly forced into the CIA's brutal experimentation

00:05:59.780 while admitted at Ionia,

00:06:01.980 before being paroled in 1970,

00:06:04.920 and killing at least two women before his final arrest in 1983.

00:06:10.180 While incarcerated for these crimes,

00:06:13.100 he falsely confessed to approximately 600 additional murders

00:06:16.980 to Texas Rangers and other law enforcement officials.

00:06:21.240 Adam Walsh was a seven-year-old boy

00:06:23.960 who was abducted from a Sears department store

00:06:26.460 at the Hollywood Mall in Hollywood, Florida

00:06:28.600 on July 27, 1981.

00:06:32.200 His severed head was found two weeks later

00:06:35.200 in a drainage canal alongside Highway 60.

00:06:39.920 Convicted serial killer Otis Toole

00:06:42.360 would repeatedly confess to Adam's kidnapping and murder,

00:06:46.120 but would then retract his story

00:06:48.480 before confessing to the crime all over again.

00:06:52.540 He was never convicted of the crime

00:06:54.240 because evidence was reportedly lost,

00:06:57.340 and Toole ultimately recanted his confession

00:06:59.760 until admitting to the crime one final time on his deathbed.

00:07:05.040 Brutal Proof published an article in November 2013

00:07:08.420 making the compelling case that Otis Toole

00:07:11.820 was the gay lover and partner in crime of another serial killer. 0.92

00:07:15.280 Henry Lee Lucas. 0.77

00:07:17.720 Lucas and Toole met at a Jacksonville soup kitchen,

00:07:21.640 and they soon developed a sexual relationship

00:07:23.800 which led to a cross-country crime spree together.

00:07:27.560 Both were caught up with by law enforcement agents separately,

00:07:31.940 Toole in April 1983 for arson in Jacksonville,

00:07:36.080 and Lucas two months later

00:07:37.620 for the killing of an 82-year-old woman.

00:07:39.920 But both told the story

00:07:42.360 that they were members of a cannibalistic cult

00:07:44.940 based in the Everglades

00:07:46.480 called the Hand of Death.

00:07:49.180 In Max Call's book, Hand of Death,

00:07:51.780 Henry tells of his indoctrination

00:07:53.700 into a nationwide satanic cult

00:07:56.020 and says that he was trained by the cult

00:07:58.840 in a mobile paramilitary camp

00:08:01.600 in the Florida Everglades

00:08:02.920 in the fine art of killing.

00:08:05.280 Other training involved abduction

00:08:07.280 and arson techniques.

00:08:09.720 The first task he was given

00:08:11.600 was the murder of one of the students, 0.99

00:08:14.680 a young black homosexual 0.99

00:08:16.100 who had betrayed his oath to the devil. 1.00

00:08:19.100 He slit the man's throat,

00:08:20.960 and later that same evening,

00:08:22.780 a satanic ritual was performed

00:08:24.800 in which the dead man's heart was cut out,

00:08:27.920 his blood drained,

00:08:29.480 and his body dismembered.

00:08:30.940 All of the initiated members of the Hand

00:08:34.280 drank the dead man's blood

00:08:36.380 and ate pieces of his flesh.

00:08:39.220 The remains of the body

00:08:40.760 were then burned at an altar.

00:08:43.380 There were several hundred students

00:08:44.940 at the Hand of Death training camp

00:08:46.700 coming from six different countries.

00:08:49.600 Over half of them were women. 1.00

00:08:52.000 The camp provided unlimited access

00:08:54.040 to all kinds of drug-taking,

00:08:56.480 which was encouraged recreational activity.

00:08:58.840 They claimed to have met a man

00:09:01.500 calling himself Don Materic

00:09:03.340 who invited them to come to Miami

00:09:05.480 and do contract killings

00:09:07.160 for the Hand of Death.

00:09:09.280 Materic and Tool eventually admitted to Lucas

00:09:11.980 that Tool had already been working

00:09:14.340 for Materic for years.

00:09:16.860 According to Court TV,

00:09:18.980 Lucas later said that at the time,

00:09:21.280 he'd felt betrayed by Otis

00:09:22.840 and manipulated by him

00:09:24.480 into joining the cult.

00:09:26.480 Be that as it may,

00:09:27.480 Lucas happily stayed a member

00:09:29.680 and committed many more murders

00:09:31.360 at their behest.

00:09:33.260 The group allegedly operated

00:09:34.660 on remote swamplands

00:09:36.080 deep in the Everglades,

00:09:37.960 accessible only by airboat.

00:09:40.880 Police helicopters surveyed the Everglades

00:09:43.220 and reported no sign of the encampments.

00:09:47.000 Lucas told interviewers

00:09:48.580 that the Hand of Death

00:09:50.120 has connections to elements

00:09:52.280 within the U.S. government,

00:09:53.600 so they were no doubt

00:09:55.260 tipped off in advance

00:09:56.680 in order to remain unseen.

00:09:59.740 Reiterated in Dave McGowan's book,

00:10:01.800 Program to Kill,

00:10:03.300 was the extraordinary fact

00:10:04.800 that Lucas had claimed

00:10:06.200 that he was trained

00:10:07.260 by a nationwide satanic cult

00:10:09.320 in a mobile paramilitary training camp

00:10:12.060 in the Florida Everglades.

00:10:14.680 Henry further claimed

00:10:15.880 the leaders of the camp

00:10:17.200 were so impressed

00:10:18.180 with his handling of a knife

00:10:19.680 that he was allowed

00:10:20.900 to serve as an instructor.

00:10:23.280 Following his training,

00:10:25.020 Henry claimed

00:10:25.640 that he served the cult

00:10:26.800 in various ways,

00:10:28.480 including as a contract killer

00:10:30.140 and as an abductor of children,

00:10:32.640 whom he delivered

00:10:33.360 to a ranch in Mexico

00:10:34.740 near Juarez.

00:10:36.900 Three days before Lucas

00:10:38.660 was scheduled to be executed,

00:10:41.120 then-Governor George W. Bush,

00:10:43.680 infamous for refusing

00:10:44.880 to grant stays of execution

00:10:46.600 to any death row inmate,

00:10:48.220 did something

00:10:49.600 he had never done before

00:10:51.020 or since.

00:10:52.760 He saved Henry Lee Lucas

00:10:54.400 from the electric chair

00:10:55.760 and commuted his sentence

00:10:57.540 to life in prison instead.

00:11:00.140 Of all the inmates

00:11:01.520 he sent to death,

00:11:03.080 many far more deserving

00:11:04.560 of leniency than Lucas.

00:11:06.960 He even sent to death

00:11:08.120 a great-grandmother

00:11:09.180 who killed her abusive husband

00:11:10.900 in self-defense.

00:11:12.900 Bush chose to spare the life

00:11:14.680 of one of America's

00:11:15.840 most notorious serial killers,

00:11:17.640 does that seem odd to you?

00:11:47.640 Hi, I'm Darren Marlar,

00:11:50.520 host of the Weird Darkness podcast.

00:11:52.260 I want to talk about

00:11:52.980 the most important tool

00:11:54.180 in my podcast belt.

00:11:55.580 Spreaker is the all-in-one platform

00:11:57.400 that makes it easy

00:11:58.220 to record, host,

00:11:59.340 and distribute your show

00:12:00.420 everywhere,

00:12:01.040 from Apple Podcasts

00:12:02.200 to Spotify.

00:12:02.920 But the real game changer

00:12:04.000 for me was Spreaker's

00:12:05.380 monetization.

00:12:06.400 Spreaker offers

00:12:07.080 dynamic ad insertion.

00:12:08.680 That means you can

00:12:09.180 automatically insert ads

00:12:10.460 into your episodes.

00:12:11.520 No editing required.

00:12:12.780 And with Spreaker's

00:12:13.700 programmatic ads,

00:12:14.720 they'll bring the ads

00:12:15.600 to you,

00:12:16.200 and you get paid

00:12:17.040 for every download.

00:12:18.060 This turned my podcasting hobby

00:12:19.620 into a full-time career.

00:12:21.140 Spreaker also has

00:12:22.040 a premium subscription model

00:12:23.540 where your most

00:12:24.160 dedicated listeners

00:12:30.460 And the best part,

00:12:44.180 check out Spreaker.com.

00:12:45.960 That's S-P-R-E-A-K-E-R dot com. 0.96

00:12:49.840 McGowan goes on

00:12:50.900 to point out in the book

00:12:52.140 that it could just be

00:12:53.880 a coincidence that Tool,

00:12:55.480 who was convicted

00:12:56.260 in the state of Florida,

00:12:58.160 shared with Henry

00:12:59.160 the fate of having

00:13:00.260 his death sentence commuted.

00:13:01.880 Florida is, of course,

00:13:04.860 a state that is also

00:13:06.060 overly zealous

00:13:07.040 in its application

00:13:08.100 of the death penalty.

00:13:10.260 Not zealous enough

00:13:11.320 to execute the likes

00:13:12.500 of Otis Tool, however.

00:13:14.980 In any event,

00:13:16.380 it's interesting

00:13:17.080 that both of these men

00:13:18.400 had their death sentences

00:13:19.660 set aside in states

00:13:21.180 run by a member

00:13:22.140 of the Bush family.

00:13:24.400 According to

00:13:25.060 investigative journalist

00:13:26.300 Anna Griffey,

00:13:28.120 by 1978,

00:13:29.920 when they found themselves

00:13:31.060 without a home,

00:13:32.720 Otis told Henry

00:13:33.700 he'd done more killing

00:13:34.880 than he told him about.

00:13:36.880 He'd been made a member

00:13:37.960 of the satanic cult

00:13:39.300 at the Hand of Death

00:13:40.420 and wanted Henry

00:13:41.760 to join too.

00:13:43.580 This wasn't the first time

00:13:44.900 that Henry would have killed, 0.99

00:13:46.680 raped, 0.96

00:13:47.100 or even possibly 0.99

00:13:48.100 cannibalized another human.

00:13:50.400 But this was very detailed

00:13:52.260 and had repercussions

00:13:53.940 that would lead

00:13:54.660 to your death 0.99

00:13:55.440 without exception.

00:13:57.500 Lucas later confessed

00:13:58.780 that he wanted to join

00:14:00.140 and told Otis.

00:14:02.000 He understood

00:14:02.600 he would be killed

00:14:03.580 if he did anything

00:14:04.520 to betray the cult

00:14:05.540 and that the only way out

00:14:07.400 was death.

00:14:09.140 Otis told Henry

00:14:10.120 that the satanic rituals

00:14:11.580 would keep them safe

00:14:12.900 and from being caught.

00:14:15.100 There was a power there

00:14:16.320 they would be protected by

00:14:17.860 as long as they obeyed

00:14:19.720 the cult.

00:14:21.420 Henry and Otis

00:14:22.320 went to Florida

00:14:23.520 to have Henry

00:14:24.280 see the training camp

00:14:25.500 that was set up

00:14:26.280 in the Everglades.

00:14:28.440 There,

00:14:29.180 in an isolated spot,

00:14:31.240 they met a man

00:14:32.000 named Don

00:14:32.660 that Otis seemed

00:14:33.680 to know well.

00:14:35.420 It was becoming clear

00:14:36.620 to Henry

00:14:37.160 that Otis had already

00:14:38.840 proved himself

00:14:39.660 to the cult

00:14:40.300 many times over.

00:14:42.380 Now he must do the same

00:14:43.860 if he wanted to join.

00:14:45.900 They went to a tent

00:14:46.920 where a young man

00:14:47.880 was drinking

00:14:48.500 and smoking.

00:14:50.200 Don looked at Henry

00:14:51.160 and told him, 1.00

00:14:52.600 kill him 1.00

00:14:53.120 and make it clean. 1.00

00:14:54.740 Only then

00:14:56.080 will you be one of us.

00:14:58.220 The man was a student

00:14:59.720 who betrayed his oath

00:15:01.360 to the cult 1.00

00:15:02.040 and must be killed, 1.00

00:15:03.880 Don explained. 1.00

00:15:05.840 Otis had a bottle

00:15:06.920 of whiskey

00:15:07.480 and was ready to go.

00:15:09.320 They walked down

00:15:10.040 to the water

00:15:10.620 with the young man

00:15:11.540 who was still drinking

00:15:12.860 and talking.

00:15:14.400 Henry waited

00:15:15.000 until he stood

00:15:15.780 at the edge of the water

00:15:16.800 and was tipping his head

00:15:18.000 back for a drink

00:15:19.020 when he grabbed him

00:15:20.340 from behind

00:15:20.980 and slid his throat 0.82

00:15:21.980 so deeply

00:15:22.680 that the whiskey

00:15:23.460 poured out

00:15:24.200 mingled with blood

00:15:25.360 flowing down his hands.

00:15:28.260 Don smiled

00:15:29.020 at such a clean kill.

00:15:31.520 The body,

00:15:32.160 according to Henry,

00:15:33.660 was used

00:15:34.280 in a cult ritual

00:15:35.300 where the body

00:15:36.060 was mutilated,

00:15:37.640 the heart cut out

00:15:38.660 and some of the flesh

00:15:40.200 eaten.

00:15:41.660 After that,

00:15:42.980 Henry was a member

00:15:43.920 and in training.

00:15:45.160 According to him,

00:15:46.340 all new members

00:15:47.280 had a sponsor.

00:15:49.100 The camp

00:15:49.540 had both men

00:15:50.380 and women

00:15:50.840 and had both

00:15:51.960 day and night activities.

00:15:54.100 Days were for training

00:15:55.140 in all forms of crime,

00:15:57.120 murder,

00:15:57.760 kidnapping, 0.71

00:15:58.620 rape,

00:15:59.360 drug selling

00:16:00.000 and the making

00:16:00.640 of pornographic movies

00:16:02.040 and photos.

00:16:03.760 That night,

00:16:04.720 there were liquor

00:16:05.300 and drugs

00:16:05.920 for everyone

00:16:06.680 and Henry claimed

00:16:08.040 sex was plentiful.

00:16:10.140 There were evening sacrifices,

00:16:12.400 transient people

00:16:13.360 or sometimes people

00:16:14.480 who had in some way

00:16:15.540 or another

00:16:16.020 betrayed the cult

00:16:17.040 and was considered

00:16:18.280 a liability.

00:16:20.300 It was as if

00:16:21.000 there were no shortage 0.98

00:16:22.080 of bodies to kill

00:16:23.280 and Henry was quite 0.99

00:16:24.900 willing to kill 0.99

00:16:25.720 as many as he possibly could. 0.99

00:16:28.660 Engaging in the

00:16:29.480 training activities

00:16:30.340 with his partner

00:16:31.220 assigned by the cult,

00:16:33.100 Henry was trained

00:16:34.060 for seven weeks

00:16:35.100 in almost every form

00:16:36.540 of criminal activity

00:16:37.660 imaginable.

00:16:39.540 Shortly after

00:16:40.180 his training

00:16:40.720 was completed,

00:16:42.380 he was assigned

00:16:43.000 to the kidnapping

00:16:43.780 division of the organization.

00:16:45.320 Otis was there

00:16:47.440 to work with him

00:16:48.200 and they were told

00:16:49.060 they could make

00:16:49.620 a lot of money

00:16:50.280 by kidnapping.

00:16:51.660 There would be no killing

00:16:52.600 and it would be

00:16:53.240 much easier.

00:16:54.820 In 1978,

00:16:56.500 the chances

00:16:56.960 of being caught

00:16:57.860 were much slimmer,

00:16:59.480 the Amber Alert

00:17:00.200 not having been

00:17:00.980 instituted yet.

00:17:02.800 Henry and Otis

00:17:03.680 took their first job

00:17:04.760 by kidnapping

00:17:05.440 three babies

00:17:06.380 and running them 0.68

00:17:07.100 across the border

00:17:07.900 of Mexico

00:17:08.540 to a ranch

00:17:09.340 in Chihuahua.

00:17:11.220 Henry claimed

00:17:11.980 he and Otis

00:17:12.720 also kidnapped

00:17:13.680 several teenage girls

00:17:15.100 that were used

00:17:16.320 in pornographic

00:17:17.200 snuff films.

00:17:19.000 Knowing that

00:17:19.740 they would die

00:17:20.500 at the end

00:17:21.060 wasn't troubling

00:17:22.200 for him.

00:17:23.520 By that time,

00:17:24.900 he'd killed

00:17:25.380 so many people,

00:17:27.040 he said it just

00:17:27.700 didn't matter anymore.

00:17:29.840 But the stakes

00:17:30.520 were higher

00:17:31.100 in the killing game

00:17:32.100 than in the

00:17:32.580 kidnapping operations.

00:17:34.640 After nearly a year,

00:17:36.520 Henry asked

00:17:37.100 to be transferred there.

00:17:39.360 In a year,

00:17:40.600 he claimed

00:17:41.040 to have carried out

00:17:41.940 six high-profile

00:17:43.220 executions.

00:17:44.920 Most of these

00:17:45.700 were in Texas

00:17:46.840 and Mexico

00:17:47.580 with one in Canada.

00:17:50.300 He told the police

00:17:51.680 at the time

00:17:52.220 of his incarceration

00:17:53.120 that he was

00:17:54.440 offered the job

00:17:55.400 of delivering

00:17:56.160 the cyanide

00:17:57.040 to Jim Jones

00:17:58.080 in Guyana

00:17:58.780 and assassinating

00:18:00.300 then-President

00:18:01.060 Jimmy Carter.

00:18:02.940 How much

00:18:03.940 all of this

00:18:04.640 is fact

00:18:05.260 and not a figment

00:18:06.220 of Henry's imagination,

00:18:08.440 one is left

00:18:09.200 to speculate.

00:18:09.920 Have we largely

00:18:12.240 been conditioned

00:18:13.160 to oversimplify

00:18:14.660 the underlying

00:18:15.400 motivations

00:18:16.300 driving such

00:18:17.600 irrational

00:18:18.280 human action

00:18:19.260 as disturbing

00:18:20.220 and evil

00:18:20.900 and serial

00:18:21.940 ritual murder?

00:18:23.880 Whether it be

00:18:25.040 through calculated

00:18:25.920 deception

00:18:26.520 or the desperate

00:18:28.000 need for a

00:18:28.820 plausible explanation,

00:18:30.440 the end result

00:18:31.740 remains the same.

00:18:33.880 This week,

00:18:35.220 we set out

00:18:36.220 looking for the truth,

00:18:37.240 only to find

00:18:39.040 the truth

00:18:39.600 almost too

00:18:40.480 frightening

00:18:40.960 to contemplate.

00:18:43.380 Into this abyss

00:18:44.460 we reluctantly

00:18:45.320 walk,

00:18:46.580 not knowing

00:18:47.300 we have vastly

00:18:48.300 underestimated

00:18:49.380 the scope

00:18:50.600 of the ultimate

00:18:51.360 evil.

00:18:52.920 What if

00:18:53.940 an organization

00:18:54.760 existed,

00:18:56.160 providing bold

00:18:57.000 connections

00:18:57.600 between the

00:18:58.340 most infamous

00:18:59.100 serial killers

00:19:00.020 in American history,

00:19:02.140 various satanic

00:19:03.140 cult groups

00:19:03.960 well-versed

00:19:04.780 in occult

00:19:05.260 principles

00:19:05.860 with deep

00:19:06.680 ties to

00:19:07.340 elite secret

00:19:08.020 societies

00:19:08.800 and sinister

00:19:10.460 covert action

00:19:11.600 wielding

00:19:12.120 insidious

00:19:12.680 clandestine

00:19:13.520 operational

00:19:14.240 methods.

00:19:16.140 Many

00:19:16.980 investigators

00:19:17.720 and intrepid

00:19:18.560 reporters

00:19:19.140 have connected

00:19:20.500 this well-established

00:19:21.700 cult organization

00:19:22.780 to a nationwide

00:19:24.420 wave of

00:19:25.480 murderous mayhem,

00:19:27.140 including the

00:19:27.800 likes of

00:19:28.300 Jeffrey Dahmer,

00:19:29.640 the Zodiac

00:19:30.240 Killings,

00:19:31.500 Smiley Face 0.98

00:19:32.380 Killers,

00:19:33.620 Charlie Manson

00:19:34.580 and the family,

00:19:35.860 Henry Lee Lucas

00:19:37.180 and the Hand

00:19:37.740 of Death,

00:19:39.100 the ritual

00:19:39.560 murder of

00:19:40.240 Arliss Perry

00:19:41.060 inside the

00:19:42.180 Stanford Memorial

00:19:43.140 Church within

00:19:43.980 the grounds

00:19:44.540 of Stanford

00:19:45.100 University,

00:19:46.620 the murder

00:19:47.080 of producer

00:19:47.800 Roy Radin,

00:19:49.380 Adolfo

00:19:49.940 Costanzo's

00:19:50.860 and La Madrina's

00:19:51.860 narco-satanist

00:19:52.940 and metamoros

00:19:54.020 responsible for

00:19:55.080 the ritual

00:19:55.580 killing of

00:19:56.300 American student

00:19:57.300 Mark Gilroy,

00:19:59.480 and David

00:20:00.020 Berkowitz,

00:20:01.400 the infamous

00:20:02.040 serial killer,

00:20:03.600 widely considered

00:20:04.540 the lone wolf

00:20:05.520 and the son

00:20:06.040 of Sam

00:20:06.460 Killings.

00:20:08.360 Our story

00:20:09.460 begins with

00:20:11.060 the foundation

00:20:11.760 of a sinister

00:20:12.580 organization

00:20:13.400 with deep

00:20:14.760 ties to the

00:20:15.600 occult underground

00:20:16.640 given the

00:20:17.860 name

00:20:18.200 The Process

00:20:19.640 Church of the

00:20:20.540 Final Judgment.

00:20:22.540 According to

00:20:23.500 author Maury Terry

00:20:24.640 in chapter 9

00:20:25.720 of his book

00:20:26.400 The Ultimate

00:20:27.140 Evil,

00:20:28.340 originally published

00:20:29.420 in 1987,

00:20:31.320 The Process

00:20:32.060 Church of the

00:20:32.880 Final Judgment,

00:20:33.920 was born in

00:20:34.600 London,

00:20:35.160 England,

00:20:36.140 in 1963-64,

00:20:39.280 the damien

00:20:39.860 child of two

00:20:40.860 ranking members

00:20:41.800 of the Church

00:20:42.420 of Scientology

00:20:43.440 who'd split

00:20:44.660 with the parent

00:20:45.320 organization

00:20:46.080 following some

00:20:47.060 philosophical

00:20:47.720 differences with

00:20:48.760 the teachings

00:20:49.360 of L. Ron

00:20:50.080 Hubbard,

00:20:51.160 the developer

00:20:51.740 of Scientology.

00:20:53.520 The founding

00:20:54.560 couple of The

00:20:55.360 Process,

00:20:56.560 Robert Moore

00:20:57.360 and Mary Ann

00:20:58.160 McLean,

00:20:59.620 met while

00:21:00.240 receiving advanced

00:21:01.240 training at the

00:21:02.060 Hubbard Institute

00:21:02.800 of Scientology

00:21:03.900 on London's

00:21:04.740 Fitzroy Street.

00:21:06.940 Divorcing Hubbard,

00:21:08.680 they married

00:21:09.220 one another

00:21:09.800 and adopted

00:21:10.460 the cult

00:21:10.980 name

00:21:11.320 De Grimston

00:21:12.140 for themselves.

00:21:14.660 Robert Moore

00:21:15.360 De Grimston

00:21:16.080 was born

00:21:17.380 in Shanghai,

00:21:18.360 China

00:21:18.660 on August 10,

00:21:20.040 1935.

00:21:22.140 David Berkowitz,

00:21:23.160 or the son

00:21:23.560 of Sam Killer,

00:21:25.240 would be

00:21:25.660 coincidentally

00:21:26.340 arrested

00:21:26.920 on De Grimston's

00:21:27.980 birthday.

00:21:28.460 De Grimston,

00:21:30.680 a tall,

00:21:31.280 bearded blonde

00:21:32.120 who affected

00:21:33.220 a Christ-like

00:21:34.020 appearance

00:21:34.640 with an educated

00:21:36.120 man,

00:21:37.060 studying at

00:21:37.760 Winchester

00:21:38.340 in England

00:21:38.980 and later

00:21:40.160 pursuing a

00:21:40.940 career in

00:21:41.520 architecture

00:21:42.180 at the

00:21:42.680 Regent Street

00:21:43.340 Polytechnic

00:21:44.160 Institute.

00:21:45.740 His bride's

00:21:46.860 background

00:21:47.280 was checkered.

00:21:48.980 Mary Ann

00:21:49.440 McLean

00:21:49.920 De Grimston

00:21:50.580 was born

00:21:51.660 illegitimately

00:21:52.520 in Glasgow,

00:21:53.480 Scotland

00:21:53.840 on November

00:21:54.680 20,

00:21:55.380 1931.

00:21:56.220 She reportedly

00:21:58.040 endured

00:21:58.580 a frustrating

00:21:59.360 childhood,

00:22:00.780 punctuated

00:22:01.340 by tenure

00:22:02.000 in a reform

00:22:02.720 school.

00:22:04.400 Mary Ann

00:22:04.860 subsequently

00:22:05.520 entered the

00:22:06.160 United States

00:22:06.960 where she

00:22:07.840 managed to

00:22:08.400 meet former

00:22:09.000 boxing champion

00:22:10.080 Sugar Ray

00:22:10.740 Robinson

00:22:11.280 and became

00:22:12.380 engaged in him.

00:22:14.340 However,

00:22:15.240 the relationship

00:22:15.980 ended and

00:22:16.880 Mary Ann

00:22:17.400 returned to

00:22:18.060 England

00:22:18.440 where she

00:22:19.300 worked as

00:22:19.740 a dance

00:22:20.180 hall hostess.

00:22:22.000 At a dwelling

00:22:22.960 in London,

00:22:24.200 she became

00:22:24.800 romantically

00:22:25.400 involved with

00:22:26.380 several prominent

00:22:27.260 British citizens

00:22:28.300 during the

00:22:28.880 days of the

00:22:29.560 John Perfumo

00:22:30.520 Christine

00:22:31.320 Keillor

00:22:31.840 prostitution

00:22:32.620 scandal

00:22:33.220 which rocked

00:22:34.520 the British

00:22:35.020 government

00:22:35.500 in the early

00:22:36.260 1960s.

00:22:38.540 At least

00:22:38.920 one of those

00:22:39.640 linked to the

00:22:40.300 Perfumo

00:22:40.780 affair,

00:22:42.180 Dr. Stephen

00:22:42.920 Ward,

00:22:43.960 was an

00:22:44.360 occult

00:22:44.700 adept.

00:22:46.180 Ward soon

00:22:46.800 died,

00:22:48.100 an apparent

00:22:48.600 suicide.

00:22:50.440 It was

00:22:50.860 during this

00:22:51.480 tumultuous

00:22:52.120 period that

00:22:53.060 Robert Moore

00:22:53.820 and Mary Ann

00:22:54.640 McLean

00:22:55.240 met while

00:22:56.320 immersed in

00:22:57.100 profound

00:22:57.580 mental exercises

00:22:58.780 at the

00:22:59.280 Hubbard

00:22:59.580 Institute

00:23:00.080 of Scientology.

00:23:01.240 Hi, I'm

00:23:02.400 Darren Marlar,

00:23:03.220 host of the

00:23:04.240 podcast.

00:23:04.960 I want to

00:23:05.280 talk about

00:23:05.660 the most

00:23:06.080 important tool

00:23:06.860 in my

00:23:07.240 podcast belt.

00:23:15.600 But the real

00:23:16.060 game-changer

00:23:16.680 for me was

00:23:17.560 Spreaker's

00:23:18.060 monetization.

00:23:58.680 That's S-P-R-E-A-K 1.00

00:24:00.480 S-P-R-E-A-R-D-C-O-M. 1.00

00:24:02.280 On their own,

00:24:03.700 and with their

00:24:04.200 new cult names,

00:24:05.880 the Grimstons

00:24:06.640 began to experiment

00:24:07.760 with sophisticated

00:24:08.820 mind control games.

00:24:11.300 They started a center

00:24:12.740 to study what they

00:24:13.760 termed

00:24:14.520 compulsion analysis,

00:24:16.680 a research

00:24:17.340 into elimination

00:24:18.260 of compulsive

00:24:19.160 behavior.

00:24:20.640 They preached

00:24:21.460 a doctrine

00:24:22.060 of free choice,

00:24:23.660 declaring that

00:24:24.300 individuals were

00:24:25.280 completely responsible

00:24:26.420 for their own

00:24:27.260 fates,

00:24:28.040 actions,

00:24:28.460 and afflictions.

00:24:30.440 Mary Ann,

00:24:31.240 for instance,

00:24:32.520 reportedly believed

00:24:33.620 that Jews 0.87

00:24:34.440 chose the gas 0.93

00:24:35.540 chambers,

00:24:36.720 and even birth

00:24:37.600 defects were said

00:24:38.640 to be freely

00:24:39.360 selected and

00:24:40.280 carried into the

00:24:41.100 present from

00:24:41.880 past lives,

00:24:43.400 as the

00:24:43.780 de Grimstons

00:24:44.440 also believed

00:24:45.380 in reincarnation.

00:24:47.480 The gods

00:24:48.460 they worshipped

00:24:49.280 were two in

00:24:50.320 number,

00:24:51.520 Jehovah 0.61

00:24:51.940 and Lucifer.

00:24:53.920 Not surprisingly,

00:24:55.540 the fledgling

00:24:56.180 process attracted

00:24:57.420 a following.

00:24:58.860 Young,

00:24:59.620 searching,

00:25:00.220 and disturbed

00:25:00.800 men and women

00:25:01.740 were drawn to

00:25:02.980 the group

00:25:03.420 like metal

00:25:04.060 to a magnet.

00:25:05.980 The de Grimstons

00:25:06.760 also actively

00:25:07.780 recruited,

00:25:09.000 particularly from

00:25:09.960 the ranks

00:25:10.480 of the wealthy

00:25:11.160 young.

00:25:12.660 This cult

00:25:13.540 modus operandi

00:25:14.620 is an important

00:25:16.020 one,

00:25:17.020 worthy of

00:25:17.580 remembrance.

00:25:19.200 Moneyed

00:25:19.600 recruits

00:25:20.160 served two

00:25:20.940 purposes.

00:25:22.320 First,

00:25:23.180 they could be

00:25:23.680 tapped for

00:25:24.280 sizable donations

00:25:25.340 that would

00:25:25.900 allow the cult

00:25:26.640 to expand

00:25:27.480 and its

00:25:28.280 leaders to

00:25:28.860 maintain an

00:25:29.560 appropriate

00:25:30.080 lifestyle.

00:25:31.940 Second,

00:25:33.120 wealthy converts

00:25:34.140 often held

00:25:35.000 top jobs

00:25:35.860 or had

00:25:36.240 important

00:25:36.660 connections,

00:25:37.900 enabling the

00:25:38.640 cult to

00:25:39.220 gain entry

00:25:39.880 into powerful

00:25:40.580 businesses,

00:25:41.780 entertainment,

00:25:42.860 government,

00:25:43.460 and financial

00:25:44.020 circles,

00:25:45.260 laying the

00:25:45.720 foundation for

00:25:46.620 an influential

00:25:47.380 cultic

00:25:48.100 old-boy

00:25:48.740 network.

00:25:50.180 In March

00:25:51.000 1966,

00:25:53.040 the de Grimstons,

00:25:53.880 flushed with

00:25:54.960 success,

00:25:56.260 leased a

00:25:56.720 mansion on

00:25:57.460 Balfour Place

00:25:58.440 in London's

00:25:59.180 fashionable

00:25:59.720 Mayfair section.

00:26:01.960 Now totally

00:26:02.820 absorbed in

00:26:03.580 their power

00:26:04.060 trip,

00:26:05.080 they brought

00:26:05.460 twenty-five

00:26:06.340 groveling

00:26:06.980 followers into

00:26:07.880 the house

00:26:08.340 with them.

00:26:09.680 Here,

00:26:10.440 the German

00:26:10.880 shepherds

00:26:11.460 entered the

00:26:11.980 picture as

00:26:12.620 the de Grimstons

00:26:13.460 each obtained

00:26:14.320 a large

00:26:14.840 Alsatian,

00:26:16.180 a breed of

00:26:16.700 German shepherd.

00:26:18.400 To mirror

00:26:19.280 their leaders,

00:26:20.660 the acolytes

00:26:21.440 also purchased

00:26:22.340 German shepherds,

00:26:23.780 and their

00:26:24.140 canine core

00:26:24.940 grew to

00:26:25.380 over thirty

00:26:26.020 in number.

00:26:27.760 The de Grimstons

00:26:28.620 weren't content

00:26:29.420 with a limited

00:26:30.100 operation,

00:26:31.000 however.

00:26:32.080 In the

00:26:32.400 tradition of

00:26:33.060 egomaniacal

00:26:34.040 gurus

00:26:34.600 everywhere,

00:26:35.760 they decided

00:26:36.320 to expand

00:26:37.080 internationally.

00:26:39.300 Accordingly,

00:26:40.300 they,

00:26:40.820 along with

00:26:41.220 eighteen disciples

00:26:42.160 and a number

00:26:42.940 of Alsatians,

00:26:44.400 embarked for

00:26:45.000 Nassau for

00:26:45.720 six weeks

00:26:46.460 before leasing

00:26:47.300 a large

00:26:47.820 tract of land

00:26:48.720 on the beach

00:26:49.360 in Stuhl,

00:26:50.040 Mexico,

00:26:51.120 which is

00:26:51.500 situated on

00:26:52.300 the Yucatan

00:26:52.860 Peninsula.

00:26:54.920 The Mexican 0.51

00:26:55.440 period was

00:26:56.320 a significant

00:26:57.040 one,

00:26:58.040 because while

00:26:58.540 in Stuhl,

00:26:59.780 process's two

00:27:00.680 gods,

00:27:01.740 Lucifer and

00:27:02.460 Jehovah,

00:27:03.720 were joined

00:27:04.300 by a third,

00:27:05.940 Satan.

00:27:07.460 For the first

00:27:08.060 time,

00:27:08.960 the group

00:27:09.380 began conducting

00:27:10.460 moonlight

00:27:11.040 satanic

00:27:11.700 rituals.

00:27:13.340 Also at

00:27:13.980 Stuhl,

00:27:14.980 the notion

00:27:15.520 of founding

00:27:16.160 a formal

00:27:16.740 process church

00:27:17.700 evolved.

00:27:18.720 To

00:27:19.560 process

00:27:19.940 members,

00:27:21.280 its

00:27:21.460 dual

00:27:21.740 experience

00:27:22.500 was the

00:27:23.220 equivalent

00:27:23.680 of Christ's

00:27:24.520 forty days

00:27:25.240 and nights

00:27:25.800 in the

00:27:26.120 desert.

00:27:27.540 Returning

00:27:27.980 to England,

00:27:29.200 the group

00:27:29.480 sought out

00:27:29.980 the famous,

00:27:31.200 driving to

00:27:31.860 convert the

00:27:32.560 Beatles and

00:27:33.260 the Rolling

00:27:33.680 Stones,

00:27:34.500 among others.

00:27:35.960 A bookstore

00:27:36.460 was opened,

00:27:37.820 a coffeehouse

00:27:38.660 perked,

00:27:39.580 and the

00:27:39.800 process magazine

00:27:40.880 rolled off

00:27:41.580 the presses.

00:27:43.460 The cult

00:27:43.800 was enamored

00:27:44.540 of bloodshed

00:27:45.400 and war,

00:27:46.700 and its

00:27:47.120 magazine

00:27:47.600 reflected the

00:27:48.380 obsession.

00:27:49.880 Hitler was 0.98

00:27:50.460 considered a

00:27:51.180 noble gentleman

00:27:52.060 worthy of

00:27:53.240 admiration and

00:27:54.260 worship.

00:27:55.560 In this,

00:27:56.600 the era of

00:27:57.280 flower power,

00:27:58.920 the process

00:27:59.520 briefly managed

00:28:00.580 to entrap

00:28:01.280 singer Marianne

00:28:02.280 Faithfull,

00:28:03.320 a close

00:28:03.720 companion of

00:28:04.520 the Rolling

00:28:04.900 Stones.

00:28:06.600 In one issue

00:28:07.440 of Process

00:28:08.160 magazine,

00:28:09.360 she was

00:28:09.800 pictured supine

00:28:11.000 as if deed

00:28:11.860 clutching a

00:28:12.640 rose.

00:28:13.000 In late

00:28:14.480 1967,

00:28:16.460 Robert

00:28:16.740 de Grimston

00:28:17.420 published a

00:28:18.180 book,

00:28:18.860 As It Is,

00:28:20.180 which spelled

00:28:20.820 out the

00:28:21.300 process's

00:28:21.940 philosophy.

00:28:23.820 Christ said,

00:28:25.340 Love thine

00:28:25.940 enemy.

00:28:27.140 Christ's

00:28:27.680 enemy was

00:28:28.260 Satan.

00:28:29.320 Satan's

00:28:29.940 enemy was

00:28:30.500 Christ.

00:28:31.920 Through

00:28:32.120 love,

00:28:33.220 saint and

00:28:33.840 sinner destroy 1.00

00:28:34.680 the enmity

00:28:35.280 between them.

00:28:36.900 Through

00:28:37.180 love,

00:28:38.200 Christ and

00:28:38.840 Satan have

00:28:39.440 destroyed their

00:28:40.140 enmity and

00:28:41.260 come together

00:28:42.020 for the

00:28:42.420 end.

00:28:43.480 Christ to

00:28:44.060 judge,

00:28:45.120 Satan to 1.00

00:28:45.700 execute the

00:28:46.440 judgment.

00:28:48.180 The key to

00:28:48.880 this treatise

00:28:49.680 is contained

00:28:50.820 in the

00:28:51.200 sentence which

00:28:51.900 says that

00:28:53.100 Christ and

00:28:53.760 Satan have

00:28:54.520 joined forces

00:28:55.380 to bring about

00:28:56.240 the end of

00:28:56.780 the world.

00:28:58.440 Christ,

00:28:59.240 according to

00:28:59.760 the process,

00:29:01.140 was employing

00:29:01.960 Satan as a

00:29:02.720 hitman.

00:29:04.380 So,

00:29:04.760 worshipping

00:29:05.160 Satan was

00:29:05.980 akin to

00:29:06.580 worshipping

00:29:07.040 Christ, 1.00

00:29:08.380 and killing 1.00

00:29:08.840 in the name 1.00

00:29:09.380 of Satan

00:29:09.940 was actually

00:29:11.160 killing for

00:29:11.840 Christ, 0.65

00:29:13.000 a divine

00:29:13.660 mission.

00:29:15.280 Naturally,

00:29:16.040 de Grimstone

00:29:16.520 was thought

00:29:17.040 by process

00:29:17.780 members to

00:29:18.480 be Christ,

00:29:19.640 and they,

00:29:20.240 in adoring

00:29:20.720 Satan,

00:29:21.840 were the

00:29:22.200 agents of

00:29:22.780 God working

00:29:23.620 under divine

00:29:24.440 orders to

00:29:25.200 save the

00:29:25.700 world from

00:29:26.220 itself by

00:29:27.080 hastening the

00:29:27.780 day of the

00:29:28.320 second coming.

00:29:30.100 In the

00:29:30.460 end,

00:29:31.480 the cult

00:29:31.880 would survive

00:29:32.660 to build a

00:29:33.360 new world

00:29:33.900 of satanic

00:29:34.580 glory.

00:29:36.060 From the

00:29:36.680 Bible,

00:29:37.700 the signs of

00:29:38.300 the second

00:29:38.720 coming were

00:29:39.380 evident.

00:29:39.840 fires of

00:29:41.420 Armageddon,

00:29:42.440 death,

00:29:42.980 chaos,

00:29:43.520 and confusion.

00:29:45.300 The process

00:29:45.960 firmly believed

00:29:47.020 its divine

00:29:48.100 duty was to

00:29:48.940 hasten the

00:29:49.500 arrival of

00:29:50.200 the final

00:29:50.640 days,

00:29:52.060 and bastardizing 0.71

00:29:53.000 the Bible

00:29:53.580 told them

00:29:54.660 how to do

00:29:55.200 it.

00:29:56.360 This was a

00:29:57.420 blueprint for

00:29:58.240 murder,

00:29:59.100 butchery,

00:30:00.040 and other

00:30:00.420 crime cloaked

00:30:01.420 in religious

00:30:02.020 justification.

00:30:03.900 Would the

00:30:04.660 disenfranchised,

00:30:05.840 rebellious,

00:30:06.480 or power

00:30:07.140 hungry swallow

00:30:08.400 this perverse

00:30:09.320 theology?

00:30:11.060 Most

00:30:11.700 assuredly,

00:30:12.860 the

00:30:12.980 DeGrimstons 0.98

00:30:13.560 believed,

00:30:14.700 and they

00:30:15.040 prepared a

00:30:15.860 go-ye-and-teach-all-nations

00:30:17.720 crusade which

00:30:19.140 swept into the

00:30:19.960 United States

00:30:20.840 in late

00:30:21.320 1967.

00:30:23.480 My

00:30:24.180 prophecy,

00:30:25.660 upon this

00:30:26.260 wasted

00:30:26.760 earth,

00:30:27.700 and upon the

00:30:28.340 corrupt

00:30:28.680 creation that

00:30:29.700 squats upon

00:30:30.440 its ruined

00:30:31.100 surface,

00:30:32.680 is thou

00:30:33.160 shalt 0.99

00:30:33.640 kill. 0.50

00:30:34.200 It is not

00:30:35.860 known if

00:30:36.420 process members

00:30:37.440 seeping into

00:30:38.200 San Francisco

00:30:38.960 in the autumn

00:30:39.680 of the summer

00:30:40.320 of love

00:30:40.940 distributed

00:30:42.120 pamphlets

00:30:42.900 containing that

00:30:43.780 quote from

00:30:44.420 Robert DeGrimston's

00:30:45.540 book,

00:30:46.280 Jehovah on

00:30:46.980 War,

00:30:47.820 but arrived

00:30:48.960 they did,

00:30:50.220 bringing their

00:30:50.860 German shepherds,

00:30:52.280 magazines,

00:30:53.180 recruitment

00:30:53.640 wraps,

00:30:54.320 and twisted

00:30:54.780 theology with

00:30:55.780 them.

00:30:57.060 In the

00:30:57.860 United States,

00:30:59.200 that was the

00:30:59.760 era of

00:31:00.300 burgeoning

00:31:00.840 student

00:31:01.280 unrest.

00:31:02.780 The

00:31:02.940 Vietnam War

00:31:03.720 was igniting

00:31:04.440 protests.

00:31:05.720 Rental

00:31:06.000 values were

00:31:06.840 under siege.

00:31:08.500 Psychedelic

00:31:09.140 music was

00:31:09.820 the rage.

00:31:11.060 The

00:31:11.140 movement's

00:31:12.060 flower children

00:31:12.900 were in

00:31:13.460 full bloom.

00:31:15.280 The

00:31:15.500 summer of

00:31:16.040 1967,

00:31:17.940 the

00:31:18.100 frostroads

00:31:18.740 of hate

00:31:19.300 in Ashbury

00:31:20.140 transformed

00:31:21.600 San Francisco

00:31:22.520 into

00:31:22.960 Mecca.

00:31:24.760 Timothy

00:31:25.160 Leary was

00:31:25.900 advising youth

00:31:26.880 to turn

00:31:27.960 on,

00:31:28.500 tune in,

00:31:29.280 drop out.

00:31:31.000 It was an

00:31:31.540 age of

00:31:32.120 do your own

00:31:32.840 thing,

00:31:33.860 free love

00:31:34.660 and

00:31:34.880 transcendental

00:31:35.640 meditation.

00:31:37.320 Even the

00:31:37.720 beetles were

00:31:38.340 grooving on

00:31:39.100 the Maharisha

00:31:39.920 and singing

00:31:41.000 all you need

00:31:41.820 is love.

00:31:43.680 This was

00:31:44.180 fertile ground

00:31:45.020 for the

00:31:45.440 process to

00:31:46.240 plow.

00:31:47.500 The

00:31:47.720 cult was

00:31:48.260 at this

00:31:48.740 time

00:31:49.140 arranged

00:31:49.800 into

00:31:50.100 three

00:31:50.400 subgroups

00:31:51.320 which

00:31:51.900 represented

00:31:52.480 its

00:31:52.820 three

00:31:53.120 gods.

00:31:54.540 The

00:31:54.700 Jehovah's 0.98

00:31:55.380 were

00:31:56.000 straight-laced

00:31:56.740 and uncompromising

00:31:57.980 the Puritans

00:31:59.100 of the

00:31:59.440 sect.

00:31:59.760 Luciferians,

00:32:01.840 in contrast,

00:32:03.360 literally

00:32:03.740 embraced each

00:32:04.680 other,

00:32:05.560 advocating

00:32:06.100 sensuality,

00:32:07.400 tranquility,

00:32:08.220 and the

00:32:08.460 free use

00:32:09.000 of narcotics.

00:32:10.900 Finally,

00:32:12.020 Satanists

00:32:12.760 believed

00:32:13.260 what

00:32:13.540 Satanists

00:32:14.140 everywhere

00:32:14.700 believed

00:32:15.200 in,

00:32:16.220 gore,

00:32:17.260 violence,

00:32:18.260 sacrifice,

00:32:19.500 and devil

00:32:19.900 worship.

00:32:21.560 New

00:32:21.840 process

00:32:22.380 members

00:32:22.860 were free

00:32:23.400 to select

00:32:23.920 the disciple

00:32:24.540 of their

00:32:24.940 choice.

00:32:25.400 This

00:32:26.620 option

00:32:27.140 mattered

00:32:27.560 little

00:32:27.900 to the

00:32:28.240 DeGrimstons 0.98

00:32:28.940 since,

00:32:29.960 according to

00:32:30.420 their

00:32:30.600 preachings,

00:32:31.700 all three

00:32:32.280 branches

00:32:32.760 would converge

00:32:33.720 for the

00:32:34.140 final judgment,

00:32:35.580 which would

00:32:36.000 mark the

00:32:36.500 end of the

00:32:37.020 world as

00:32:37.620 non-members,

00:32:38.880 the brave

00:32:39.240 forces of

00:32:39.980 moderation,

00:32:41.200 knew it

00:32:41.540 to be.

00:32:43.180 For

00:32:43.400 processons,

00:32:44.560 no matter

00:32:44.980 which god

00:32:45.620 they bowed

00:32:46.160 to,

00:32:46.940 it was a

00:32:47.520 joyous

00:32:47.980 time.

00:32:49.120 The end

00:32:49.540 was coming,

00:32:50.820 and they,

00:32:51.460 as the

00:32:51.740 chosen people,

00:32:53.120 were going

00:32:53.500 to be part

00:32:54.100 of the

00:32:54.380 big event,

00:32:55.400 landing in

00:32:56.720 California.

00:32:58.100 The process

00:32:58.560 was just

00:32:59.220 another group

00:32:59.980 of proselytizers

00:33:01.260 hawking their

00:33:02.300 wares in an

00:33:03.160 already teeming

00:33:04.220 marketplace.

00:33:05.880 They attracted 0.92

00:33:06.860 little official

00:33:07.700 attention,

00:33:08.800 since law

00:33:09.380 enforcement

00:33:09.880 authorities

00:33:10.620 lumped them

00:33:11.560 into the

00:33:12.080 same category

00:33:12.900 as other

00:33:13.500 messianic

00:33:14.200 minions 0.98

00:33:14.720 littering the

00:33:15.800 streets with

00:33:16.400 their literature.

00:33:18.160 There was a

00:33:18.800 difference here.

00:33:20.320 The process

00:33:20.860 was dangling

00:33:21.820 a carrot

00:33:22.440 seasoned

00:33:23.100 for a variety

00:33:24.120 of taste

00:33:24.760 buds.

00:33:25.400 and thus

00:33:26.340 was able

00:33:27.280 to entice

00:33:28.040 a sizable

00:33:28.700 number of

00:33:29.340 recruits.

00:33:31.100 Death

00:33:31.500 and violence

00:33:32.180 advocates

00:33:32.820 were attracted

00:33:33.540 by the

00:33:34.040 Satanist

00:33:34.480 wing

00:33:34.820 and the

00:33:35.440 promise

00:33:35.820 of

00:33:36.020 upcoming

00:33:36.520 end-of-the-world

00:33:37.360 rampage

00:33:38.120 and destruction.

00:33:39.860 Free love

00:33:40.500 and dope

00:33:40.960 aficionados

00:33:41.860 were seduced

00:33:42.700 by the

00:33:43.120 Luciferians

00:33:43.900 and self-flagellating

00:33:45.500 hair shirts

00:33:46.180 were drawn

00:33:47.200 to the

00:33:47.600 strict

00:33:47.940 forbidding

00:33:48.540 Jehovah's.

00:33:49.320 and it

00:33:50.800 should be

00:33:51.120 noted

00:33:51.400 here

00:33:51.860 the

00:33:52.540 Christ-Satan

00:33:53.260 duality

00:33:53.980 was very

00:33:55.160 appealing

00:33:55.660 to an

00:33:56.260 aging

00:33:56.620 flower

00:33:57.080 child

00:33:57.620 by the

00:33:58.520 name

00:33:58.800 of

00:33:58.980 Charles

00:33:59.520 Manson.

00:34:01.100 Manson

00:34:01.860 happened to

00:34:02.400 have considerable

00:34:03.220 connections

00:34:03.800 to the

00:34:04.240 process

00:34:04.680 church.

00:34:05.140 Hi, I'm

00:34:06.000 Darren Marlar,

00:34:06.800 host of the

00:34:07.240 Weird Darkness

00:34:07.820 podcast.

00:34:08.540 I want to

00:34:08.860 talk about

00:34:09.240 the most

00:34:09.660 important tool

00:34:10.440 in my

00:34:10.820 podcast belt.

00:34:11.860 Spreaker is

00:34:12.480 the all-in-one

00:34:13.180 platform that

00:34:13.880 makes it easy

00:34:14.480 to record,

00:34:15.300 host,

00:34:16.120 your show

00:34:16.680 everywhere,

00:34:17.320 from Apple

00:34:17.680 Podcasts

00:34:18.460 to Spotify.

00:34:19.180 But the real

00:34:19.660 game-changer

00:34:20.280 for me

00:34:20.800 was Spreaker's

00:34:21.640 monetization.

00:34:22.680 Spreaker offers

00:34:23.340 dynamic ad

00:34:24.240 insertion.

00:34:24.960 That means you

00:34:25.320 can automatically

00:34:25.900 insert ads

00:34:26.720 into your

00:34:27.240 episodes.

00:34:27.860 No editing

00:34:28.500 required.

00:34:29.320 And with

00:34:29.500 Spreaker's

00:34:29.980 programmatic ads,

00:34:31.140 they'll bring

00:34:31.500 the ads to you,

00:34:32.440 and you get paid

00:34:33.320 for every

00:34:33.720 download.

00:34:34.120 This turned my

00:34:35.000 podcasting hobby

00:34:35.900 into a full-time

00:34:36.800 career.

00:34:37.420 Spreaker also

00:34:38.040 has a premium

00:34:38.860 subscription model

00:35:05.440 and was heavily

00:35:06.460 influenced by the

00:35:07.460 group.

00:35:08.500 From around April

00:35:09.420 through July 1967,

00:35:12.140 Charlie Manson

00:35:13.000 and his still

00:35:13.680 fledgling family

00:35:14.840 even lived at

00:35:16.380 636 Cole Street,

00:35:18.680 only two blocks

00:35:19.720 from the Process

00:35:20.560 Church San Francisco

00:35:21.780 headquarters at

00:35:22.760 407 Cole Street

00:35:24.460 and the infamous

00:35:25.800 8 Ashbury

00:35:26.600 District.

00:35:28.920 Author Maury

00:35:29.560 Terry continues

00:35:30.480 to explain that

00:35:31.500 in San Francisco,

00:35:33.360 the Process

00:35:33.820 set up house

00:35:34.660 on Cole Street

00:35:35.580 and later

00:35:36.460 moved to a

00:35:37.200 more amenable

00:35:37.840 residence on

00:35:38.660 Oak Street.

00:35:40.100 In March 1968,

00:35:42.140 after spreading

00:35:42.800 the news

00:35:43.440 in the north,

00:35:44.760 a contingent

00:35:45.420 of 30 members,

00:35:47.040 accompanied by

00:35:47.760 more than a

00:35:48.360 dozen Alsatian

00:35:49.280 dogs,

00:35:50.480 drove down the

00:35:51.160 coast to

00:35:51.760 Weirdness West,

00:35:53.300 Los Angeles.

00:35:55.180 In L.A.,

00:35:56.000 they rented

00:35:56.800 a large house

00:35:57.740 on South

00:35:58.300 Cochran Street

00:35:59.160 from where they

00:36:00.140 descended on

00:36:00.840 Sunset Strip

00:36:01.680 like so many

00:36:02.540 vultures

00:36:03.140 in quest

00:36:03.720 of cadavers.

00:36:05.340 There,

00:36:06.280 they vacuumed

00:36:07.040 up new

00:36:07.480 disciples from

00:36:08.320 the swarms

00:36:08.880 of runaways,

00:36:10.000 castoffs,

00:36:10.860 bikers, 0.77

00:36:11.860 dopers,

00:36:12.520 and other

00:36:12.860 outsiders for

00:36:14.200 whom the

00:36:14.620 Strip was

00:36:15.020 home.

00:36:16.600 True to form,

00:36:18.060 the Process

00:36:18.600 approached the

00:36:19.300 elite as well

00:36:20.120 as the down

00:36:20.660 and outers.

00:36:21.900 Singer John

00:36:22.480 Phillips of

00:36:23.160 the Mamas

00:36:23.620 and the Papas,

00:36:25.000 Mama Cass

00:36:25.620 Elliott herself,

00:36:27.100 and Terry

00:36:27.480 Melcher,

00:36:28.440 son of Doris

00:36:29.260 Day and a TV

00:36:30.220 and record

00:36:30.800 producer,

00:36:31.860 were among

00:36:32.300 those in show

00:36:33.080 business sought

00:36:33.880 out by the

00:36:34.400 group,

00:36:35.160 apparently with

00:36:35.880 mixed success.

00:36:37.860 The Process,

00:36:38.880 not surprisingly,

00:36:39.860 was fond of

00:36:40.520 the color

00:36:40.900 black.

00:36:41.940 They wore 0.89

00:36:42.220 black capes,

00:36:43.580 some with the

00:36:44.160 Mendez goat of 0.97

00:36:45.000 Satan stitched

00:36:45.900 in red on the

00:36:46.720 back.

00:36:47.780 Underneath,

00:36:48.840 they donned

00:36:49.400 black robes or

00:36:50.640 suits and

00:36:51.300 turtlenecks and

00:36:52.600 adorned their

00:36:53.280 necks with

00:36:53.860 silver crosses.

00:36:55.760 Some wore a

00:36:56.660 Mendez goat 0.65

00:36:57.360 pin.

00:36:58.980 The official

00:36:59.600 Process symbol,

00:37:01.180 paying homage

00:37:01.960 to the idolized

00:37:02.900 Hitler,

00:37:03.840 was a form of

00:37:04.720 inverted swastika.

00:37:06.880 On the streets

00:37:07.640 of Los Angeles

00:37:08.500 in the spring

00:37:09.140 of 1968,

00:37:11.180 the Process

00:37:11.620 was distributing

00:37:12.680 the sex issue

00:37:13.820 of Process

00:37:14.540 magazine.

00:37:15.980 Its front cover

00:37:16.860 displayed a photo

00:37:17.840 of a satanic

00:37:18.700 ceremony,

00:37:19.920 showing a naked

00:37:20.700 girl lying on

00:37:21.740 an altar

00:37:22.240 surrounded by a

00:37:23.360 band of hooded

00:37:24.120 cultists.

00:37:25.700 An inverted

00:37:26.300 cross,

00:37:26.860 shadowed the

00:37:27.720 scene.

00:37:29.340 The back cover

00:37:30.180 contained a

00:37:31.340 rendering of a

00:37:32.140 winged skeleton

00:37:33.080 suspended over a

00:37:34.400 pile of naked

00:37:35.300 bodies. 0.63

00:37:36.720 The humans'

00:37:37.480 mouths gaping,

00:37:39.120 apparently were

00:37:39.820 either dead or

00:37:40.820 in hell, 0.98

00:37:41.640 or both.

00:37:42.960 The inner pages

00:37:44.080 of this charming

00:37:45.000 piece of literature

00:37:46.060 contained articles

00:37:47.680 relating to

00:37:48.460 black masses 0.98

00:37:49.280 and necrophilia, 0.80

00:37:51.100 the practice of

00:37:51.820 performing sexual

00:37:52.900 or other violations

00:37:54.040 on corpses.

00:37:54.900 A subsequent

00:37:56.820 issue of

00:37:57.500 Process

00:37:57.900 magazine was

00:37:59.460 devoted to

00:38:00.120 fear.

00:38:01.740 On the back

00:38:02.300 cover of this

00:38:03.100 publication,

00:38:04.560 a band of

00:38:05.180 marching Nazis

00:38:06.260 spewed from the 0.99

00:38:07.200 mouth of a

00:38:07.860 fiery pink skull. 0.95

00:38:10.140 The Nazis were

00:38:11.020 tramping on a

00:38:11.840 ground of people

00:38:12.700 being consumed

00:38:13.980 by fire.

00:38:15.900 Elsewhere in this

00:38:16.880 same illustration,

00:38:18.640 the face of

00:38:19.260 Hitler appeared in 0.97

00:38:20.360 a funhouse mirror,

00:38:22.160 and the human

00:38:22.720 being was shown

00:38:23.740 burning to

00:38:24.380 death. 0.99

00:38:25.680 At the top of

00:38:26.520 the page,

00:38:27.600 a legend promised,

00:38:29.380 Next issue,

00:38:31.040 Death.

00:38:32.840 The magazine's

00:38:34.140 center spread was

00:38:35.060 devoted to the

00:38:35.900 unholy alliance of

00:38:37.180 the Lamb of God

00:38:38.160 and the Goat of

00:38:39.320 Satan.

00:38:40.480 The caption read,

00:38:42.200 The Lamb and the 0.82

00:38:43.040 Goat must come

00:38:44.040 together.

00:38:45.300 Pure love descended

00:38:46.480 from the pinnacle

00:38:47.320 of heaven, united

00:38:48.980 with pure hatred

00:38:50.260 raised from the

00:38:51.180 depths of hell.

00:38:52.040 Other articles of

00:38:54.240 great interest in

00:38:55.120 the fear issue

00:38:56.020 included a page of

00:38:57.820 quotes about fear

00:38:59.020 from members of

00:38:59.920 the Hells Angels

00:39:00.760 biker group.

00:39:02.280 The process actively

00:39:03.960 recruited bikers 0.75

00:39:05.120 considering them the

00:39:06.180 front-line troops of

00:39:07.380 the great war to

00:39:08.340 come.

00:39:09.740 An essay entitled,

00:39:11.620 Satan is Fear,

00:39:13.540 and a picture of

00:39:14.400 24 process

00:39:15.680 Alsatian dogs

00:39:16.920 menacing the

00:39:17.680 camera.

00:39:19.320 Regarding the

00:39:20.000 obsession with fear,

00:39:21.200 it is not a

00:39:22.500 coincidence that

00:39:23.520 one of Charlie

00:39:24.260 Manson's favorite

00:39:25.420 lectures to his

00:39:26.620 followers revolved

00:39:28.440 around the expression

00:39:29.600 getting the fear.

00:39:32.020 As incredible as

00:39:33.460 Process Magazine

00:39:34.360 was, its rantings

00:39:36.520 could only be

00:39:37.320 considered routine,

00:39:38.760 coming as they did

00:39:39.680 from a group whose

00:39:40.560 leader, Robert de

00:39:41.620 Grimston, wrote in

00:39:43.400 Satan on war,

00:39:44.480 release the fiend that 0.85

00:39:46.900 lies dormant within

00:39:48.200 you, for he is

00:39:49.800 strong and ruthless,

00:39:51.580 and his power is

00:39:52.620 far beyond the

00:39:53.740 bounds of human

00:39:54.560 frailty.

00:39:56.100 It was a more

00:39:57.220 divine trumpet

00:39:58.140 ever blown.

00:40:00.100 What the process

00:40:01.280 had managed to do

00:40:02.540 was to envelop

00:40:03.900 isolated weirdness

00:40:05.380 freaks from various

00:40:06.720 social backgrounds

00:40:07.860 and mix them

00:40:08.860 together.

00:40:09.300 Hi, I'm Darren

00:40:10.660 Marler, host of the

00:40:11.660 Weird Darkness

00:40:12.260 podcast.

00:40:12.980 I want to talk

00:40:13.480 about the most

00:40:14.100 important tool in

00:40:15.100 my podcast belt.

00:40:16.280 Spreaker is the

00:40:17.060 all-in-one platform

00:40:18.120 that makes it easy

00:40:21.120 everywhere, from

00:40:21.880 Apple Podcasts to

00:40:23.060 Spotify.

00:40:23.620 But the real game

00:40:24.400 changer for me was

00:40:25.580 Spreaker's monetization.

00:40:27.120 Spreaker offers dynamic

00:40:28.320 ad insertion.

00:40:29.380 That means you can

00:40:34.420 programmatic ads,

00:40:35.580 they'll bring the

00:40:36.080 ads to you, and you

00:40:37.300 get paid for every

00:40:39.420 podcasting hobby into

00:40:40.620 a full-time career.

00:40:57.280 Spreaker's powerful

00:40:58.080 tools scale effortlessly

00:41:02.060 podcast like a pro and

00:41:04.580 it, check out

00:41:05.320 Spreaker.com.

00:41:06.560 That's S-P-R-E-A-K-E-R 1.00

00:41:09.140 dot com.

00:41:10.460 It was a volatile

00:41:11.340 brew, and the

00:41:12.680 common cause resulted

00:41:14.140 in long-standing

00:41:15.240 alliances being

00:41:16.340 sealed.

00:41:17.460 I have spoken to

00:41:18.980 several professional

00:41:19.860 people, including

00:41:21.260 educators, who remain

00:41:22.820 sympathetic to the

00:41:23.840 group's theology.

00:41:25.400 So any impressions

00:41:26.420 that the cult managed

00:41:27.740 to attract only

00:41:28.760 society's misfits

00:41:30.100 would be erroneous.

00:41:31.600 In terms of inner

00:41:33.500 ranking, there were

00:41:35.060 six levels of

00:41:36.080 membership in the

00:41:36.920 group, which

00:41:37.840 borrowed from the

00:41:38.660 family structure for

00:41:39.760 its inspiration.

00:41:41.540 In fact, the

00:41:42.840 process referred to

00:41:43.920 itself as the

00:41:45.380 family, as Manson

00:41:47.440 did with his group.

00:41:49.480 It is yet another

00:41:50.440 interesting link

00:41:51.440 between Manson and

00:41:52.520 the process, and

00:41:53.940 there are many

00:41:54.420 more.

00:41:55.500 For instance, cult

00:41:56.980 names were

00:41:57.720 substituted for legal

00:41:59.020 names once initiates

00:42:00.540 reached a certain

00:42:01.420 level of process

00:42:02.520 indoctrination.

00:42:04.380 This was another

00:42:05.160 practice Manson

00:42:06.240 utilized for many

00:42:07.380 in his family.

00:42:09.320 The lowest level in

00:42:10.460 the process was that

00:42:12.200 of acolyte, followed

00:42:13.920 by initiate and

00:42:15.120 messenger, the rank

00:42:16.760 at which the recruit

00:42:17.680 acquired his or her

00:42:19.100 cult name, such as

00:42:20.800 brother Tom, sister

00:42:22.260 Rebecca, or father

00:42:23.760 Jonas.

00:42:25.020 From the rank of

00:42:26.140 messenger, the

00:42:27.560 aspiring cultist

00:42:28.820 graduated to profit

00:42:30.360 priest, and

00:42:31.740 ultimately, master.

00:42:34.360 At one point in the

00:42:35.460 journey, all members,

00:42:37.480 regardless of their

00:42:38.320 chosen god, were

00:42:39.940 required to enter a

00:42:41.300 long period of

00:42:42.240 satanic worship, which

00:42:44.160 reportedly included

00:42:45.540 blood rituals and

00:42:47.080 sacrifice.

00:42:48.800 Accepted

00:42:49.380 processans then

00:42:50.720 formally convened

00:42:51.940 twice each month to

00:42:53.560 summon their three

00:42:54.380 gods, who would

00:42:55.540 then speak through

00:42:56.440 the mouths of the

00:42:57.400 gathered cult members.

00:42:58.580 Most of the original

00:43:00.740 cultists were British

00:43:01.880 citizens who

00:43:02.720 apparently came to

00:43:03.680 America on 90-day

00:43:04.980 visitors' visas.

00:43:06.800 Some extensions of

00:43:07.880 time were granted, but

00:43:09.640 eventually, in the

00:43:11.000 summer of 1968, many of

00:43:13.520 the group suddenly

00:43:14.380 dropped from sight.

00:43:16.260 Some, it was said,

00:43:17.820 returned to England, but

00:43:19.600 others appeared to have

00:43:20.600 remained in the United

00:43:21.520 States clandestinely.

00:43:22.800 The DeGrimstons 0.99

00:43:24.740 themselves headed for

00:43:26.080 New York City, where

00:43:27.560 a process church was

00:43:28.840 established on Cornelia

00:43:30.240 Street in Greenwich

00:43:31.360 Village in late 1968.

00:43:34.400 In addition to the

00:43:35.780 church, numerous

00:43:37.020 members lived in a

00:43:38.200 building on East

00:43:39.100 12th Street, while the

00:43:40.580 DeGrimstons stayed in 1.00

00:43:41.760 Brooklyn.

00:43:43.220 As in California, the

00:43:45.000 process recruited among

00:43:46.260 the artists, poets, and

00:43:47.820 hordes of counterculture

00:43:49.000 youth who frequented the

00:43:50.460 village.

00:43:50.800 Later, the cult spokesman

00:43:53.340 told United Press

00:43:54.440 International that more

00:43:56.120 than 200 Americans were

00:43:57.940 fully converted to the

00:43:59.260 faith.

00:44:00.760 Process contingents

00:44:02.080 subsequently materialized

00:44:04.120 in New Orleans, Dallas,

00:44:06.300 Toronto, Chicago, and

00:44:08.560 Cambridge, Massachusetts,

00:44:10.200 among other locations.

00:44:12.260 In a development that is

00:44:13.600 critical to this story,

00:44:15.680 once the group's

00:44:16.520 leadership turned over

00:44:17.680 the reins to local

00:44:18.740 disciples in Los

00:44:19.800 Angeles, power plays

00:44:21.940 and political infighting

00:44:23.340 inevitably resulted.

00:44:25.780 Differences in philosophy

00:44:27.200 and theology also arose.

00:44:30.160 Cult went underground

00:44:31.340 there in the aftermath of

00:44:32.840 the assassination of

00:44:34.040 Senator Robert Kennedy,

00:44:36.140 perhaps concerned that

00:44:37.520 law enforcement would hear

00:44:39.000 of Sirhan Sirhan's

00:44:40.320 occult interests and

00:44:42.140 alleged acquaintance with a

00:44:43.620 process member.

00:44:45.660 Author Ed Sanders

00:44:46.740 even wrote in his 1971 book

00:44:50.020 The Family,

00:44:51.340 it is possible that the

00:44:52.920 process had a baleful

00:44:54.420 influence on Sirhan Sirhan,

00:44:57.040 since Sirhan is known in the

00:44:58.900 spring of 68 to have

00:45:01.020 frequented clubs in Hollywood

00:45:02.780 in the same turf as the

00:45:04.260 process was proselytizing.

00:45:07.080 Sirhan was very involved in

00:45:09.400 occult pursuits.

00:45:10.380 He has talked several times

00:45:12.680 subsequent to Robert

00:45:13.740 Kennedy's death about an

00:45:15.680 occult group from London

00:45:17.520 which he knew about and

00:45:19.700 which he really wanted to go

00:45:21.160 to London to see.

00:45:22.800 There was one process member

00:45:24.760 named Lloyd who was

00:45:26.940 coincidentally working as a

00:45:29.040 chef for a large Los Angeles

00:45:30.860 hotel named the ambassador

00:45:33.480 where the assassination would

00:45:35.360 take place.

00:45:36.240 It is probably a coincidence

00:45:38.620 that Sirhan seems to have

00:45:40.780 visited a friend who worked

00:45:42.240 in the kitchen of the

00:45:43.160 ambassador hotel the day

00:45:45.400 before he fired shots at

00:45:47.180 Senator Kennedy.

00:45:48.940 According to Terry, as the

00:45:51.060 cult went further underground,

00:45:53.260 secret process chapters or

00:45:55.100 spinoffs using other names

00:45:56.960 were established in northern

00:45:58.840 and southern California.

00:46:00.980 Not so coincidentally, since

00:46:03.060 certain members' movements were

00:46:04.600 traced, authorities soon began

00:46:06.900 finding the bodies of

00:46:08.180 mutilated, decapitated, or

00:46:10.620 ex-sanguinated dogs, including

00:46:13.040 numerous German shepherds in the

00:46:15.000 Santa Cruz area south of San

00:46:16.820 Francisco.

00:46:18.180 Some of the animals were skinned,

00:46:21.040 prompting a Humane Society

00:46:22.560 official to comment on the

00:46:24.120 killer's abilities with knives.

00:46:26.740 Ports of human sacrifice were also

00:46:28.800 relayed to the police, including

00:46:30.820 one from a gentleman named Stanley

00:46:32.840 Baker, who was himself arrested

00:46:35.140 for an out-of-state murder.

00:46:37.640 Baker, who said he was a member

00:46:39.520 of the Santa Cruz cult,

00:46:41.560 harried a finger bone from his

00:46:43.160 recent unfortunate victim in a

00:46:45.280 leather pouch.

00:46:47.020 Upon his arrest, he delivered one

00:46:49.640 of criminal history's epic comments

00:46:51.800 to authorities.

00:46:53.280 I have a problem.

00:46:55.340 I am a cannibal.

00:46:57.420 Baker, who sported a swastika

00:46:59.760 tattoo and other occult emblems,

00:47:02.460 said he was recruited from a

00:47:04.180 campus setting in Wyoming.

00:47:06.920 He participated in blood-drinking

00:47:08.900 rituals there, was further

00:47:10.940 programmed, and then joined the

00:47:12.960 California activities.

00:47:15.500 Concerning this particular victim,

00:47:18.000 Baker told the police he murdered

00:47:19.680 the man, cut out his heart, and ate it.

00:47:23.980 Baker, and at least one other

00:47:26.040 witness, told authorities the Santa

00:47:28.580 Cruz group, later headed back

00:47:30.700 downstate, where they resumed their

00:47:33.040 obnoxious rituals, including murder,

00:47:36.000 in the O'Neill Park area of the

00:47:37.960 Santa Ana Mountains, south of Los

00:47:39.920 Angeles.

00:47:41.280 This cult, a process splinter group, 0.85

00:47:44.880 was said by the witnesses to call

00:47:46.820 itself the 4P movement, or 4Pi.

00:47:50.400 Its leader, alleged to be a prosperous

00:47:53.980 L.A. businessman or doctor, was

00:47:57.220 known as the Grand Chingon.

00:48:00.320 Interestingly, Ed Sanders stated that

00:48:02.820 on several occasions, in his presence,

00:48:05.840 Manson family members referred to

00:48:07.840 Charlie as the Grand Chingon.

00:48:11.040 However, Manson was under arrest at

00:48:13.500 this time while the cult was still

00:48:15.080 functioning.

00:48:16.720 How did Manson's followers know the

00:48:18.780 cult name of the leader of this top

00:48:20.760 secret slaughter society?

00:48:23.680 Shortly after the 4P cult relocated 1.00

00:48:26.220 to Los Angeles in early 1969,

00:48:29.420 another split apparently occurred.

00:48:32.200 Some 4P members decided there was too

00:48:34.640 much emphasis on sacrifice and devil 0.91

00:48:37.000 worship, and not enough sex. 0.93

00:48:39.780 This faction apparently went off on its 0.84

00:48:42.380 own, leaving the Grand Chingon and his 0.99

00:48:45.000 remaining followers to carry on their

00:48:47.360 business of draining and drinking the

00:48:49.300 blood of sacrificed dogs and humans.

00:48:52.700 There is a curious similarity here to

00:48:54.860 differences which arose in the parent

00:48:56.860 process between the sensual Luciferians

00:48:59.620 and the hardcore Satanists.

00:49:02.220 According to the witnesses, including

00:49:04.420 Baker, the Chingon cult practiced its 1.00

00:49:07.420 rituals on the basis of a stellar

00:49:09.500 timetable and employed its own cultic

00:49:12.460 terminology.

00:49:13.160 The group also was alleged to possess a

00:49:16.820 portable crematorium to dispose of

00:49:19.080 victims' remains, an ornate wooden

00:49:21.600 altar, and a specially designed sacrificial

00:49:24.820 knife with six blades.

00:49:27.480 A biker, who belonged to the cult, did 1.00

00:49:30.440 provide the police with one name, Erickson,

00:49:33.720 but authorities were unable to find him.

00:49:37.660 And as many in cults go by names other than

00:49:40.160 their own, or by first names only, rounding up

00:49:43.880 perpetrators is at best an extremely difficult

00:49:46.780 task.

00:49:48.360 Moreover, such underground groups are mobile,

00:49:52.480 often meeting at a variety of remote locations in the

00:49:55.580 dead of night, and informants are scarce, due to the fear

00:49:59.420 factor and blood oaths of loyalty often taken by members.

00:50:02.980 Plus, of course, almost any informant was likely to have

00:50:07.880 been an active accomplice in murder himself, and as such,

00:50:12.180 would have little incentive to provide information to the

00:50:15.120 police.

00:50:16.780 Baker, incidentally, did not renounce his satanic proclivities

00:50:20.800 when sentenced to prison for the brutal heart-meal murder he

00:50:24.360 acknowledged committing.

00:50:26.300 Authorities report that he actively and regularly conspired to

00:50:30.700 organize a devil-worshipping cult among his fellow inmates.

00:50:35.840 Apparently an otherwise model prisoner, he was eligible for

00:50:39.760 release in mid-1985, but his parole board, for whatever reason,

00:50:45.160 was finding it difficult to locate a halfway house willing to

00:50:48.720 accept him.

00:50:50.360 Lower-ranking Satanists such as Baker often literally believe in the

00:50:54.620 havoc they wreak. 1.00

00:50:56.080 But cult leaders are likely to be motivated as much by power and

00:51:00.120 greed as they are by infernal incantations.

00:51:03.520 It is possible to visualize the structure of the process left in

00:51:07.460 place, a network of cult contacts between various cities, and it is

00:51:12.980 also possible to envision how such a structure, staffed by willing

00:51:17.480 satanic slaves. 0.58

00:52:15.900 That's S-P-R-E-A-K-E-R dot com. 0.96

00:52:19.240 To be employed for purposes that could greatly benefit a handful of leaders,

00:52:24.240 both monetarily, in terms of drug distribution and child pornography, for instance,

00:52:29.640 and personally, in terms of power, influence, and immense ego gratification.

00:52:34.920 To those leaders, allegiance to Satan is a secondary, convenient avocation.

00:52:42.620 The process and its secret offshoots didn't have the Southern California or U.S. occult

00:52:48.580 scene or philosophies to themselves.

00:52:51.740 Aleister Crowley, British intelligence agent, master black magician, and self-proclaimed

00:52:58.320 prophet, passed with guiding humanity into the Aeon of Horus, who died in 1947, had written

00:53:06.680 of a unification of God and Satan.

00:53:09.880 That precept, and other Crowleyisms, found their way into process doctrine.

00:53:16.220 By sharing Crowley's beliefs, the process also blended those of the Order of the Golden Dawn.

00:53:22.200 The Golden Dawn was an English occult society to which Crowley belonged in the late 19th century.

00:53:30.500 The Golden Dawn believed in Kabbalistic magic and taught that the will could be trained to 0.96

00:53:35.880 accomplish paranormal effects, including astral projection.

00:53:40.180 The Golden Dawn also strongly believed in symbolism, teaching that certain symbols or thoughts

00:53:46.560 had the same meaning for all human beings.

00:53:49.640 After internal dissension, elements of the Golden Dawn more or less merged into the Ordo

00:53:56.300 Templis Orientis, O.T.O., a German occult society founded in 1902.

00:54:03.280 The O.T.O. accused Crowley of revealing one of its most secret precepts, that sex could

00:54:09.600 be employed for the purposes of magic.

00:54:12.540 But after mending some fences, Crowley won permission to head a British O.T.O. branch, and

00:54:19.240 the teachings of the O.T.O. entered the United States with Crowley in 1916 during World War

00:54:24.900 I in Europe.

00:54:26.580 Later, during World War II, Crowley helped establish an O.T.O. lodge in Pasadena, California,

00:54:33.420 with O.T.O. branches subsequently sprouted in a number of U.S. cities, including New York

00:54:38.960 and Houston.

00:54:39.560 In effect, a loose network was formed and already functioning via occult shops and bookstores,

00:54:47.620 newsletters, ads in the underground press, and other methods, including personal contacts,

00:54:53.100 by the time the process arrived in 1967.

00:54:56.900 In fact, many believe that the entire occult underground in America today can be traced

00:55:02.680 back to the formation of that Crowley O.T.O. operation in Pasadena.

00:55:08.240 The process, then, incorporated the ideas of a number of its ancestors and current occupants

00:55:14.600 of the occult landscape, including the O.T.O.

00:55:18.540 Accordingly, there was intermingling of philosophy, membership, and networking among the groups.

00:55:25.580 This arrangement makes labeling a difficult, restrictive measure.

00:55:29.680 Charles Manson, for example, was exposed to the practices of a renegade O.T.O. lodge in

00:55:36.620 Southern California, as well as having been deeply influenced by the process.

00:55:41.680 Author Phil Jahan wrote in his book that Manson was associated with Robert de Grimston of the

00:55:48.560 Process Church.

00:55:50.360 In fact, they used the same alias, Robert Moore.

00:55:54.600 During the Tate-LeBianca trial, the prosecutor even asked Manson if he knew Moore.

00:56:01.860 Charlie responded,

00:56:03.420 You're looking at him.

00:56:05.240 Moore and I are one and the same.

00:56:08.040 Leading up to the Tate-LeBianca murders, Sharon Tate and Roman Polanski had been in Rome

00:56:14.300 with Hollywood manager and owner of the infamous Cielo Drive house, Rudy Altebelli,

00:56:19.540 and according to official records from the IRS, they were also in Rome at the very same time

00:56:26.160 as one Robert de Grimston.

00:56:29.240 Five days after the murder of Sharon Tate, the Rome chapter of the Process Church would 0.84

00:56:35.800 call a Council of Masters meeting, swiftly deciding to close down the Rome chapter, allegedly

00:56:42.180 returning to England where they would subsequently publish the fear and death issues of the Process

00:56:47.720 Magazine, opening up a chapter in Paris.

00:56:52.100 De Grimston was also associated with Ron Stark, a CIA agent who supplied LSD to almost all of

00:57:00.100 the youth in America during the late 1960s.

00:57:04.000 Another strange, unexplained occurrence that happened during the Manson trial is the fact

00:57:09.700 that Steve Kay, who worked on Bugliosi's prosecution team, used to date Sandra Good, one of the main

00:57:17.680 Manson girls, years earlier when they went to school together in San Diego.

00:57:22.880 In 1970, during Manson's trial in connection with the killings of Sharon Tate and housemates

00:57:29.200 Lino and Rosemary LeBianca, two representatives of the Process made an impromptu visit to Prosecutor

00:57:36.620 Bugliosi, a Father John, and a Brother Matthew.

00:57:41.580 Having heard that I was asking questions about the group, they had been sent from their Cambridge,

00:57:47.120 Massachusetts headquarters to assure me that Manson and Moore had never met and that Moore

00:57:53.620 was opposed to violence.

00:57:55.840 They also left me a stack of Process literature.

00:57:58.660 The following day, the names Father John and Brother Matthew appeared on Manson's visitors'

00:58:06.840 list.

00:58:08.120 What they discussed is unknown.

00:58:10.860 All I know is that in my last conversation with Manson, Charlie became evasive when I questioned

00:58:17.840 him about the process.

00:58:20.520 Manson's guests solicited from him, or perhaps transcribed, a short article on the nature of

00:58:27.580 death, which they ran in their 1971 issue, thematically titled, Death.

00:58:34.740 According to author Michael Newton, in his book Raising Hell, in 1967, hanging out around

00:58:42.040 a San Francisco landmark called the Devil House, Manson started rubbing shoulders with a morbid

00:58:48.460 cult from England, called the Process Church of the Final Judgment.

00:58:52.840 As one family member described the scene for author Ed Sanders, the Devil House people said

00:59:00.120 it was a religious order, and it went under many ancient names, one of them being the

00:59:06.220 Champions of Life, another one being the Final Church of Judgment.

00:59:11.980 The Final Church is the name Manson chose for the church he would eventually found.

00:59:16.460 Aside from its name, Manson also borrowed his concept of the fear from process spokesmen,

00:59:23.320 along with the cult's program for recruiting outlaw biker gangs to terrorize society on the 0.97

00:59:29.100 eve of Armageddon.

00:59:30.740 This association with the process seemed to follow Manson and the family south to Los Angeles

00:59:36.720 near the end of 1967.

00:59:38.340 Adam Gowrightly explains in his book, A Shadow Over Santa Susanna, that before heading to Los

00:59:45.680 Angeles for the Universal Recording Sessions, Charlie had met a woman in San Francisco named

00:59:51.320 Gina, who, according to Manson, in his own words, he remembered as a trippy broad, about

00:59:58.520 45 years old, who experimented with everything and was pumped up on devil worship.

01:00:04.240 Gina extended an invitation for Charlie to visit her in Los Angeles at an old two-story

01:00:10.720 gothic mansion she owned in Topanga Canyon, which Charlie's family later nicknamed the

01:00:16.560 Spiral Staircase due to their circular stairs at the entrance of the residence.

01:00:21.940 Later, during his Universal Studio sessions, Charlie needed a place to park the family bus

01:00:27.820 for a while, and so decided to take up Gina on her offer.

01:00:31.560 However, as Ed Sanders noted, the Spiral Staircase became a scrounge lounge for Manson and his

01:00:38.200 girls over the next few months.

01:00:40.940 The Spiral Staircase, also known as the Rattlesnake Pit, was a fabled meeting place of people beautiful

01:00:47.960 and weird, a party house and freak-out pad, home to light shows, acid orgies, and occult rituals.

01:00:55.840 According to researcher Salvador Estucha, the Spiral Staircase was once owned by Bela Lugosi,

01:01:03.620 and later the popular L.A. rock group Arthur Lee's Love lived there for a period.

01:01:08.900 In fact, many of the band's publicity stills show them standing on a spiral staircase reportedly

01:01:15.440 taken at their L.A. residence.

01:01:18.300 Charlie described the spiral staircase as a house of transition,

01:01:22.320 a place where those who walked the straight and narrow could come to by the dark of night

01:01:28.040 and indulge in what they preached against during daylight hours.

01:01:32.820 At the spiral staircase, you would find celebrities and prominent sports figures,

01:01:38.680 and one occasion, those who wore the cloth.

01:01:42.380 It was a melting pot of different occult groups and religious practices then being bandied about,

01:01:48.100 much in the same way that different drugs became fashionable for a period of time,

01:01:53.500 then were replaced by the next strange elixir to show up on the market,

01:01:58.000 promising immortal life, or at the very least, a fleeting flash illumination.

01:02:04.340 Each time Charlie returned to the spiral staircase, he'd see something new and different,

01:02:10.320 and not all of it was love and flowers.

01:02:12.500 Animal sacrifices and the drinking of blood apparently took place upon the hallowed spiral staircase grounds

01:02:20.240 in conjunction with satanic sex rituals,

01:02:23.740 some located out on the beach near the property,

01:02:26.880 apparently directed by the house's owner, Gina.

01:03:26.740 That's S-P-R-E-A-K-E-R dot com. 0.96

01:03:29.880 It was at the spiral staircase that Charlie was exposed to various counterculture gurus,

01:03:35.820 and we no doubt took note of the heavy raps laid down and how they maneuvered and manipulated

01:03:41.240 their followers.

01:03:43.220 Charlie picked up on the way some of these acid fascists maintained control by instilling fear.

01:03:49.760 Later, these lessons would come back to him as a method to employ his own special form of madness,

01:03:55.740 the seeds of which were seemingly planted at the spiral staircase.

01:04:01.320 Maury Terry insisted that members of the process also frequented the spiral staircase,

01:04:07.060 claiming that

01:04:07.680 a jailed Manson killer told me Charlie's family met process leaders at the spiral staircase house

01:04:14.100 near Los Angeles in 1968.

01:04:17.400 Manson himself confirmed this statement in his autobiography.

01:04:21.420 In a clear reference to the English group,

01:04:23.820 he wrote that he met individuals who worshipped multiple devils at the very house in question.

01:04:30.700 Before we transition into our final chapter,

01:04:34.200 it's important to at least mention that even the name of this malignant organization

01:04:38.740 is rooted in clandestine operations.

01:04:42.400 This time, our connection comes in the form of Thomas Jude Baumler,

01:04:46.400 a lawyer, hypnotist, and bishop of the American Orthodox Catholic Church

01:04:51.220 who had worked out of Guy Bannister's office in New Orleans in the months leading up to the JFK assassination,

01:04:57.940 infiltrating left-wing college groups and reporting back to the office of the former G-Man.

01:05:04.160 This happened to be the same New Orleans office where Lee Harvey Oswald had also worked leading up to the JFK assassination.

01:05:11.640 Baumler had allegedly been recruited by another bishop and former Bannister employee named Jack Martin.

01:05:20.040 Author Peter Lavenda wrote about this in a series of articles he titled

01:05:24.020 The Bishop and the Boys,

01:05:26.820 Claiming that Jack Martin remained a bishop with the American Orthodox Catholic Church to the end of his days,

01:05:34.260 even going so far as to bring in another Bannister associate,

01:05:38.700 the corpulent attorney and unapologetic racist, 0.52

01:05:42.280 Thomas Jude Baumler, 0.84

01:05:43.540 to the Orthodox fold,

01:05:45.380 consecrating Baumler a bishop in August of 1974,

01:05:50.540 nearly 11 years after the Kennedy assassination

01:05:53.220 and 7 years after the beginning of the garrison investigation

01:05:57.340 and the death of both Archbishop Christopher Maria C.J. Stanley

01:06:02.380 and David Ferry,

01:06:04.140 who happened to be consecrated by Stanley into his church in 1961,

01:06:09.380 along with Jack Martin,

01:06:11.020 Guy Bannister,

01:06:12.180 and many others in Bannister's office.

01:06:14.180 Lovenda claims,

01:06:16.460 from personal correspondence with an individual involved with this affair,

01:06:20.920 I learned that Baumler 0.72

01:06:22.160 had already been ordained a priest by Stanley years before,

01:06:26.660 in other words,

01:06:28.000 prior to Stanley's death in March 1967.

01:06:32.120 Baumler's status in New Orleans society was assured.

01:06:35.940 He came from an old family

01:06:37.520 and was associated with one of the famous Mardi Gras brews.

01:06:41.220 His father was even a part of the original Office of Strategic Services, or OSS.

01:06:49.140 In addition,

01:06:50.760 according to Lovenda's informant,

01:06:53.480 Baumler was also a Mason

01:06:54.980 and belonged to the same lodge,

01:06:57.100 the Etoile Polaire Lodge of the French Grand Orient,

01:07:00.420 with Mafia Don Carlo Marcello,

01:07:02.440 one of the men for whom David Ferry was allegedly working for on the day of the assassination.

01:07:09.260 One final note on Tommy Baumler,

01:07:12.400 which perfectly dovetails with our current story,

01:07:15.400 providing yet another tangible connection to the Process Church,

01:07:19.260 is the fact that Tommy Baumler

01:07:21.080 is the attorney who helped incorporate the Process

01:07:24.700 and even helped select its full name,

01:07:28.740 Process Church of the Final Judgment.

01:07:31.780 Our final chapter begins with the extraordinary tale of David Berkowitz,

01:07:37.100 originally known to the public as the .44-caliber killer.

01:07:41.040 Now he is widely considered to be the infamous Son of Sam serial killer,

01:07:46.600 who pled guilty to perpetrating eight shootings in New York City

01:07:50.060 between July 1976 and July 1977,

01:07:54.760 resulting in six fatalities.

01:07:57.900 Wielding a .44-special-caliber bulldog revolver,

01:08:01.900 he is allegedly responsible for killing six people

01:08:04.680 and wounding seven others,

01:08:07.080 terrorizing New Yorkers for just over a year

01:08:09.800 as he eluded law enforcement's largest manhunt in New York City's history,

01:08:15.140 all the while leaving strange cryptic letters

01:08:17.860 in an effort to mock the police,

01:08:20.120 promising to commit additional crimes.

01:08:23.100 The letters quickly became a focal point

01:08:25.120 of the establishment news media's coverage

01:08:27.400 as the story naturally captured the attention of the public.

01:08:30.900 The satanic panic loomed large in the minds of Americans at this time,

01:08:37.100 no doubt playing a prominent role

01:08:39.120 in the public perception of this case.

01:08:41.920 As recent as 2021,

01:08:45.120 a fresh new perspective was offered to the public

01:08:47.840 as a documentary series premiered on Netflix,

01:08:51.560 profiling the brilliant work of Maury Terry,

01:08:54.480 who spent over 40 years attempting to prove

01:08:57.260 that the notorious David Berkowitz

01:08:59.260 did not act alone.

01:09:02.140 Run from me, darling.

01:09:05.220 A killer on the loose in New York

01:09:06.900 for a year and three days.

01:09:09.040 Run, my good friend.

01:09:10.960 He is David Berkowitz,

01:09:12.540 the man police believe to be the son of Sam.

01:09:15.200 You better run for your life.

01:09:19.340 They totally ignored the true story of this case.

01:09:22.940 Run.

01:09:24.640 Once they named Berkowitz,

01:09:26.020 it was like,

01:09:26.660 hallelujah, we got our bad guy,

01:09:28.420 everybody can walk the streets again.

01:09:30.500 The city of New York can rest easy.

01:09:33.580 Run.

01:09:34.940 There were real questions in this case.

01:09:37.140 Run.

01:09:38.100 Why do the police not investigate more?

01:09:40.740 Run.

01:09:41.200 The sketches don't add up.

01:09:42.460 Run.

01:09:42.980 You're not going to mistake Berkowitz

01:09:44.840 for being six feet tall and blonde.

01:09:47.700 Run.

01:09:48.380 You got suspects dying accidentally.

01:09:51.580 There were eight attacks.

01:09:52.940 Did you do all of them?

01:09:53.840 I did not pull the trigger

01:09:55.400 and every single one of them.

01:09:57.420 The worst serial killer in New York City

01:10:01.480 didn't do it on his own.

01:10:02.940 This is freaking huge.

01:10:06.160 Son of Sam is not over.

01:10:08.340 Son of Sam still exists.

01:10:12.580 Berkowitz is claiming members of a satanic cult

01:10:15.160 helped in the murders of six people.

01:10:17.040 I could feel a force pulling me into the darkness.

01:10:21.680 This group is all over the country.

01:10:23.980 They were devoted to bringing on the end of the world.

01:10:26.880 Is there a link between the Manson killings

01:10:28.880 and the Son of Sam killings?

01:10:31.180 Maury wanted the truth to come out,

01:10:33.460 but nobody would listen.

01:10:35.180 This case went off the rails a little bit.

01:10:37.360 People are scared that this is still happening.

01:10:42.580 With Berkowitz in prison.

01:10:47.220 Who's still out there?

01:10:49.920 You better run for your life.

01:10:53.580 A vigilant citizen published an article with the headline,

01:11:00.120 Son of Sam case,

01:11:01.820 a rare window into the inner workings of the occult elite,

01:11:05.800 corroborating much of the evidence

01:11:07.440 presented by author Maury Terry in his book,

01:11:10.600 The Ultimate Evil,

01:11:12.220 linking the processed church

01:11:13.700 to a multitude of additional crimes

01:11:16.300 committed under the tutelage of this occult group.

01:11:18.900 According to the article,

01:11:21.700 in 1997,

01:11:23.640 David Berkowitz,

01:11:25.040 the infamous serial killer dubbed

01:11:26.920 the Son of Sam,

01:11:28.800 agreed to be interviewed

01:11:29.880 by the very same investigative journalist Maury Terry.

01:11:33.900 At this point,

01:11:35.340 Berkowitz had been incarcerated for over 20 years

01:11:38.340 and converted to Christianity.

01:11:41.100 He even gave himself a new name,

01:11:43.800 Son of Hope.

01:11:45.700 Although he never denied the fact

01:11:47.700 that he killed innocent people

01:11:49.320 and that he deserved his multiple life sentences,

01:11:52.860 Berkowitz had always maintained one vital fact.

01:11:56.680 He did not act alone.

01:11:59.140 Not only that,

01:12:00.620 the Son of Sam murders

01:12:01.840 were not random acts of violence

01:12:03.920 carried out by a lone nut.

01:12:06.200 They were,

01:12:07.060 as crazy as it sounds,

01:12:09.180 ritual sacrifices

01:12:10.400 carried out by a highly organized satanic cult.

01:12:14.380 At the time of this interview,

01:12:16.180 Maury Terry had been investigating

01:12:18.820 the Son of Sam case

01:12:20.060 for over two decades.

01:12:22.780 Ten years prior,

01:12:24.320 he released the ultimate evil,

01:12:26.240 an investigation of America's

01:12:27.860 most dangerous satanic cult,

01:12:30.420 a book that presented evidence

01:12:32.100 that these killings

01:12:33.180 were linked to a massive occult network.

01:12:36.840 In this interview,

01:12:38.640 Terry was looking to confirm

01:12:40.100 important facts he uncovered

01:12:41.700 in his years of research.

01:12:44.220 For instance,

01:12:45.160 there was evidence

01:12:46.160 that the 1977 killing

01:12:48.140 of 20-year-old Stacey Moskowitz

01:12:50.360 was most likely filmed

01:12:52.280 by someone

01:12:53.020 who was hiding in a van.

01:12:55.220 If this was true,

01:12:56.860 the entire lone nut theory

01:12:58.520 would be disproved.

01:13:00.560 Furthermore,

01:13:01.760 it would signify

01:13:02.640 that these murders

01:13:03.580 were actually

01:13:04.440 team efforts

01:13:06.000 that even implicated

01:13:07.400 the production

01:13:08.060 of snuff material

01:13:09.340 to be sold

01:13:10.120 in underground circles.

01:13:12.460 When Terry asked

01:13:13.400 about this mysterious van,

01:13:15.800 Berkowitz answers,

01:13:17.340 there was some filming

01:13:18.880 going on.

01:13:20.280 Somebody wanted to film it

01:13:21.580 for somebody else

01:13:22.540 or, uh, uh, whatever.

01:13:25.660 Are you stating to me, then,

01:13:27.280 they made a snuff film

01:13:28.580 from that van

01:13:29.420 of the shooting

01:13:30.040 of Stacey Moskowitz

01:13:31.300 and Robert Volante?

01:13:33.380 Maybe that's what

01:13:34.400 you can call it.

01:13:35.120 Was this the cult group

01:13:37.400 itself that was

01:13:38.320 responsible for

01:13:39.220 the Son of Sam murders

01:13:40.280 or was there

01:13:41.220 something else

01:13:41.860 that went on?

01:13:43.700 Uh, there was

01:13:45.020 another group,

01:13:46.220 a more elite group,

01:13:47.840 hidden into it

01:13:48.720 and woven into it,

01:13:50.120 you know?

01:13:51.580 In his last answer,

01:13:53.800 Berkowitz stated

01:13:54.600 that the coven

01:13:55.320 he belonged to,

01:13:56.900 named the Children,

01:13:58.500 was infiltrated

01:13:59.420 by an elite group

01:14:00.740 that pushed them

01:14:01.740 further into

01:14:02.520 the dark side.

01:14:03.400 In his research,

01:14:06.060 Terry believed

01:14:06.800 that this elite group

01:14:08.240 might have been

01:14:09.460 the processed church,

01:14:11.200 a powerful

01:14:11.840 satanic group

01:14:12.880 that became

01:14:13.840 extremely influential

01:14:15.120 in the early 1970s

01:14:16.900 before going

01:14:17.640 underground.

01:14:19.620 Terry then asked

01:14:20.680 Berkowitz,

01:14:22.100 what other kinds

01:14:22.800 of crimes

01:14:23.400 did they commit?

01:14:25.200 Well,

01:14:26.160 heavy drug trafficking

01:14:27.280 and, uh,

01:14:28.420 other things

01:14:29.100 involving children.

01:14:31.340 Involving children?

01:14:32.680 What do you mean?

01:14:33.400 What kind of business

01:14:34.700 were they in?

01:14:35.900 You're telling me

01:14:36.560 the process

01:14:37.220 was producing

01:14:37.920 child pornography?

01:14:39.640 Is that what you're saying? 0.94

01:14:41.300 And providing children?

01:14:43.760 Berkowitz nodded.

01:14:45.800 Right after,

01:14:47.140 the producers

01:14:47.720 stopped the interview.

01:14:50.060 This is where

01:14:50.800 a thorough investigation

01:14:51.920 of the

01:14:52.620 Son of Sam case

01:14:53.580 leads.

01:14:54.780 The rotten core 0.83

01:14:55.860 of the occult elite 0.66

01:14:57.100 which is obsessed

01:14:58.560 with the worst

01:14:59.340 abominations

01:15:00.240 known to man.

01:15:01.080 By May 1977,

01:15:04.920 the first-hand

01:15:05.600 written letter

01:15:06.220 had been discovered

01:15:07.080 by police

01:15:07.820 near the bodies

01:15:08.540 of Alexander

01:15:09.340 Isso

01:15:09.900 and Valentina

01:15:10.860 Sirianni,

01:15:12.060 written mostly

01:15:12.760 in block capitals

01:15:13.840 with a few

01:15:14.460 lowercase letters

01:15:15.580 and addressed

01:15:16.720 to NYPD

01:15:17.560 Captain

01:15:18.080 Joseph Borelli.

01:15:20.000 The letter

01:15:20.720 expressed the

01:15:21.480 killer's

01:15:21.900 determination

01:15:22.460 to continue

01:15:23.420 his work

01:15:24.040 and taunted

01:15:24.940 police for their

01:15:25.800 fruitless efforts

01:15:26.640 to capture him.

01:15:27.520 in full

01:15:28.720 with misspellings

01:15:29.640 intact.

01:15:30.680 The letter

01:15:31.100 read,

01:15:32.240 I am deeply

01:15:32.920 hurt by your

01:15:33.900 calling me

01:15:34.540 a women-hater.

01:15:36.060 I am not,

01:15:37.400 but I am 0.85

01:15:37.940 a monster.

01:15:39.220 I am the 0.85

01:15:39.780 son of Sam.

01:15:41.080 I am a

01:15:41.640 little brat.

01:15:43.140 When Father 0.97

01:15:43.680 Sam gets drunk,

01:15:44.840 he gets mean.

01:15:46.320 He beats

01:15:46.820 his family.

01:15:48.300 Sometimes,

01:15:48.920 he ties me up

01:15:49.680 to the back

01:15:50.160 of the house.

01:15:51.500 Other times,

01:15:52.400 he locks me

01:15:53.360 in the garage.

01:15:54.980 Sam loves

01:15:55.640 to drink

01:15:56.140 blood.

01:15:57.480 Go out 1.00

01:15:58.020 and kill, 1.00

01:15:58.900 demands 1.00

01:15:59.220 Father Sam.

01:16:00.960 Behind our

01:16:01.520 house,

01:16:02.060 some rest.

01:16:03.560 Mostly

01:16:03.920 young, 0.86

01:16:05.080 raped and 1.00

01:16:05.660 slaughtered, 0.99

01:16:06.680 the blood 0.55

01:16:07.080 drained,

01:16:08.080 just bones

01:16:08.820 now.

01:16:10.340 Papa Sam

01:16:11.040 keeps me

01:16:11.600 locked in

01:16:12.060 the attic

01:16:12.460 too.

01:16:13.660 I can't

01:16:14.100 get out,

01:16:14.680 but I look

01:16:15.700 out the attic

01:16:16.280 window and

01:16:16.920 watch the

01:16:17.380 world go

01:16:17.880 by.

01:16:19.000 I feel

01:16:19.460 like an

01:16:19.840 outsider.

01:16:21.240 I am

01:16:21.560 on a

01:16:21.820 different

01:16:22.120 wavelength

01:16:22.780 than

01:16:23.080 everybody

01:16:23.460 else.

01:16:24.800 Programmed 1.00

01:16:25.480 to kill. 0.99

01:16:27.120 However, 0.94

01:16:28.320 to stop

01:16:28.760 me,

01:16:29.040 you must 1.00

01:16:29.380 kill me. 1.00

01:16:30.660 Attention, 1.00

01:16:31.260 all police. 1.00

01:16:32.780 Shoot me 1.00

01:16:33.260 first. 1.00

01:16:34.240 Shoot to 1.00

01:16:34.640 kill or 1.00

01:16:35.220 else. 0.99

01:16:36.320 Keep out

01:16:36.760 of my

01:16:37.040 way or

01:16:37.580 you will 0.99

01:16:37.920 die. 0.98

01:16:39.300 Papa Sam

01:16:39.940 is old

01:16:40.400 now.

01:16:41.320 He needs

01:16:41.680 some blood

01:16:42.120 to preserve

01:16:42.680 his youth.

01:16:44.240 He has

01:16:44.580 had too

01:16:44.980 many heart

01:16:45.460 attacks.

01:16:46.420 Too

01:16:46.560 many heart

01:16:47.140 attacks.

01:16:48.380 Ugh,

01:16:49.080 me hoot,

01:16:49.740 it hurts,

01:16:50.280 sonny boy.

01:16:51.660 I miss

01:16:52.120 my pretty

01:16:52.640 princess,

01:16:53.520 most of

01:16:54.000 all.

01:16:54.240 She's

01:16:55.120 resting

01:16:55.520 in our

01:16:55.920 lady's

01:16:56.340 house,

01:16:57.120 but I'll

01:16:57.460 see her

01:16:57.860 soon.

01:16:59.080 I am

01:16:59.480 the

01:16:59.660 monster,

01:17:00.860 the

01:17:00.980 Elzebub,

01:17:02.300 the

01:17:02.460 chubby 0.63

01:17:02.760 behemoth.

01:17:04.120 I love

01:17:04.660 to hunt,

01:17:05.980 prowling the

01:17:06.600 streets,

01:17:07.180 looking for

01:17:07.680 fair game,

01:17:08.760 tasty meat.

01:17:10.300 The

01:17:10.520 women of

01:17:11.020 queens are 1.00

01:17:12.240 the prettiest

01:17:12.940 of all.

01:17:14.340 I must

01:17:14.740 be the

01:17:15.100 water they

01:17:15.620 drink.

01:17:16.800 I live

01:17:17.320 for the

01:17:17.660 hunt,

01:17:18.440 my life,

01:17:19.740 blood for

01:17:20.280 Papa,

01:17:21.140 Mr.

01:17:21.420 Borelli,

01:17:22.160 sir.

01:17:22.940 I don't

01:17:23.580 want to

01:17:23.920 kill anymore, 0.65

01:17:24.720 no sir, 0.98

01:17:25.420 no more,

01:17:26.060 but I must

01:17:26.660 honor thy

01:17:27.220 father.

01:17:28.480 I want to

01:17:28.980 make love to

01:17:29.680 the world.

01:17:30.920 I love

01:17:31.380 people.

01:17:32.600 I don't

01:17:33.060 belong on

01:17:33.660 earth.

01:17:34.960 Return me to

01:17:35.780 yahoos,

01:17:36.960 to the people

01:17:37.580 of queens,

01:17:38.540 I love you,

01:17:39.860 and I want to

01:17:40.600 wish all of

01:17:41.320 you a happy

01:17:41.940 Easter.

01:17:43.240 May God

01:17:43.720 bless you in

01:17:44.460 this life and

01:17:45.360 in the next,

01:17:46.340 and for now,

01:17:47.380 I say goodbye

01:17:48.240 and good

01:17:48.940 night.

01:17:50.360 Police,

01:17:51.460 let me haunt 0.92

01:17:52.220 you with

01:17:52.600 these words.

01:17:54.040 I'll be

01:17:54.400 back,

01:17:55.260 I'll be

01:17:55.680 back,

01:17:56.800 to be

01:17:57.080 interpreted

01:17:57.580 as,

01:17:58.920 bang,

01:17:59.460 bang,

01:18:00.100 bang,

01:18:00.680 bang,

01:18:01.220 bang,

01:18:01.840 ugh,

01:18:02.740 yours in 0.95

01:18:03.260 murder,

01:18:04.260 Mr. 0.94

01:18:04.640 Monster.

01:18:06.140 On May

01:18:06.620 30th,

01:18:07.320 1977,

01:18:09.120 Daily News

01:18:09.740 columnist

01:18:10.440 Jimmy

01:18:10.880 Breslin

01:18:11.500 received a

01:18:12.460 handwritten

01:18:12.900 letter from

01:18:13.620 someone who

01:18:14.220 claimed to

01:18:14.720 be the

01:18:15.060 .44 caliber

01:18:15.940 killer.

01:18:17.280 The letter 0.64

01:18:17.660 was postmarked

01:18:18.660 early that

01:18:19.220 same day in

01:18:20.020 Inglewood,

01:18:20.760 New Jersey.

01:18:21.880 On the

01:18:22.520 reverse of

01:18:23.060 the envelope,

01:18:24.440 neatly handprinted

01:18:25.660 in four

01:18:26.080 precisely centered

01:18:27.180 lines were

01:18:28.400 the words

01:18:28.960 blood and

01:18:30.240 family,

01:18:31.520 darkness and

01:18:32.300 death,

01:18:33.460 absolute

01:18:33.900 depravity.

01:18:35.140 Hi, I'm

01:18:35.880 Darren Marler,

01:18:36.660 host of the

01:18:37.100 Weird Darkness

01:18:37.700 podcast.

01:18:38.420 I want to

01:18:38.740 talk about the

01:18:39.280 most important

01:18:39.940 tool in my

01:18:40.700 podcast belt.

01:18:41.720 Spreaker is the

01:18:42.500 all-in-one

01:18:48.500 Spotify.

01:18:49.080 But the real

01:18:49.520 game-changer for

01:18:50.380 me was

01:18:51.020 Spreaker's

01:18:51.520 monetization.

01:18:52.560 Spreaker offers

01:18:53.220 dynamic ad

01:19:34.560 dot com.

01:19:35.880 44.

01:19:37.400 The letter inside

01:19:38.720 read,

01:19:40.120 Hello from the

01:19:41.000 gutters of NYC,

01:19:42.760 which are filled

01:19:43.440 with dog manure,

01:19:44.780 vomit, stale wine,

01:19:46.780 urine, and blood. 0.66

01:19:48.740 Hello from the

01:19:49.500 sewers of NYC,

01:19:51.300 which swallow up

01:19:52.240 these delicacies

01:19:53.240 when they are

01:19:53.920 washed away by the

01:19:55.060 sweeper trucks.

01:19:56.940 Hello from the

01:19:57.620 cracks in the

01:19:58.340 sidewalks of NYC,

01:19:59.880 and from the

01:20:00.920 ants that dwell

01:20:01.840 in these cracks

01:20:02.660 and feed in the

01:20:03.560 dried blood of the

01:20:04.540 dead that has

01:20:05.280 settled into the

01:20:06.160 cracks.

01:20:07.700 JB,

01:20:08.540 I'm just dropping

01:20:09.880 you a line to

01:20:10.820 let you know that

01:20:11.620 I appreciate your

01:20:12.640 interest in those

01:20:13.500 recent and horrendous

01:20:14.820 44 killings.

01:20:16.800 I also want to

01:20:17.760 tell you that I

01:20:19.140 read your column

01:20:19.980 daily and I find

01:20:21.600 it quite informative.

01:20:23.760 Tell me, Jim,

01:20:24.920 what will you have

01:20:26.000 for July 29th?

01:20:27.920 You can forget

01:20:28.940 about me if

01:20:29.860 you like because

01:20:30.980 I don't care for

01:20:31.820 publicity.

01:20:33.200 However, you

01:20:34.480 must not forget

01:20:35.440 Donna Loria, and

01:20:37.280 you cannot let the

01:20:38.060 people forget her

01:20:38.980 either.

01:20:40.180 She was a very,

01:20:41.240 very sweet girl,

01:20:43.160 but Sam's a thirsty

01:20:44.200 lad, and he won't 0.91

01:20:45.660 let me stop killing 0.99

01:20:46.860 until he gets his 0.99

01:20:48.180 fill of blood.

01:20:50.220 Mr. Breslin,

01:20:51.320 sir, don't think

01:20:52.720 that because you

01:20:53.500 haven't heard from

01:20:54.240 me for a while

01:20:55.120 that I went to

01:20:56.280 sleep.

01:20:57.440 No.

01:20:57.820 Rather, I am

01:20:59.660 still here, like a

01:21:01.420 spirit roaming the

01:21:02.580 night.

01:21:03.780 Thirsty, hungry,

01:21:05.720 seldom stopping to

01:21:06.880 rest, anxious to

01:21:08.680 please Sam.

01:21:10.060 I love my work.

01:21:12.020 Now, the void has

01:21:13.640 been filled.

01:21:15.020 Perhaps we shall

01:21:15.780 meet face to face

01:21:16.980 someday, or perhaps

01:21:18.300 I will be blown away

01:21:19.860 by cops with

01:21:20.820 smoking 38s.

01:21:22.040 Whatever, if I shall

01:21:24.660 be fortunate enough

01:21:25.720 to meet you, I

01:21:26.980 will tell you all

01:21:27.780 about Sam if you

01:21:28.820 like, and I will

01:21:29.960 introduce you to

01:21:30.820 him.

01:21:31.760 His name is Sam

01:21:32.800 the Terrible.

01:21:34.480 Not knowing what

01:21:35.320 the future holds, I

01:21:37.000 shall say farewell,

01:21:38.540 and I will see you

01:21:39.420 at the next job.

01:21:41.280 Or should I say,

01:21:42.580 you will see my

01:21:43.420 hoody work at the 0.87

01:21:44.240 next job.

01:21:45.740 Remember Miss

01:21:46.480 Loria.

01:21:47.880 Thank you.

01:22:41.040 get up the money.

01:22:42.740 Son of Sam.

01:22:44.880 Underneath the

01:22:45.680 Son of Sam

01:22:46.380 was a logo

01:22:47.480 or sketch

01:22:48.320 that combined

01:22:49.100 several occult

01:22:49.980 symbols.

01:22:51.080 One of the

01:22:51.500 letter's symbols

01:22:52.220 oddly resembled

01:22:53.220 that of the O.T.O.

01:22:55.400 The writer's question,

01:22:57.260 what will you have

01:22:58.140 for July 29th,

01:23:00.080 was considered

01:23:00.820 an ominous threat.

01:23:02.640 July 29th

01:23:03.540 would be the

01:23:04.000 anniversary

01:23:04.460 of the Loria

01:23:05.340 Valenti shooting.

01:23:07.300 Breslin notified

01:23:08.260 police,

01:23:09.480 who thought that

01:23:09.960 the letter was

01:23:10.620 probably from

01:23:11.340 someone with

01:23:11.980 knowledge of the

01:23:12.740 shootings.

01:23:14.020 The Breslin

01:23:14.560 letter was

01:23:15.140 sophisticated in

01:23:16.140 its wording and

01:23:16.840 presentation,

01:23:18.120 especially when

01:23:18.880 compared to the

01:23:19.620 crudely written

01:23:20.320 first letter,

01:23:21.740 and police

01:23:22.140 suspected that it

01:23:23.080 might have been

01:23:23.600 created in an

01:23:24.500 art studio,

01:23:25.920 or similar

01:23:26.440 professional location,

01:23:28.420 by someone with

01:23:29.220 expertise in

01:23:30.200 printing,

01:23:31.200 calligraphy,

01:23:31.920 or graphic design.

01:23:34.420 The unusual

01:23:35.080 writing caused

01:23:36.040 the police to

01:23:36.860 speculate that

01:23:37.580 the killer was

01:23:38.260 a comic book

01:23:39.040 letterer,

01:23:40.040 and they asked

01:23:40.540 staff members of

01:23:41.540 DC Comics whether

01:23:42.740 they recognized

01:23:43.580 the lettering.

01:23:45.100 The Wicked

01:23:45.660 King Wicker

01:23:46.380 reference caused

01:23:47.540 police to arrange

01:23:48.660 a private screening

01:23:49.600 of The Wicker Man,

01:23:51.000 a 1973 horror film.

01:23:53.780 The Vigilant

01:23:54.380 Citizen article we

01:23:55.540 cited earlier

01:23:56.360 explains that

01:23:57.260 in August 1977,

01:24:00.060 the NYPD

01:24:00.860 proudly announced

01:24:01.900 that the son of

01:24:02.740 Sam was caught.

01:24:04.360 Officials revealed

01:24:05.340 that the serial

01:24:06.180 killer was David

01:24:07.780 Berkowitz,

01:24:09.060 a 25-year-old

01:24:10.280 Jewish man who

01:24:11.220 lived in Yonkers

01:24:12.180 and who claimed

01:24:13.360 that a demonic

01:24:14.080 dog named Sam

01:24:15.460 was ordering him

01:24:16.680 to commit the

01:24:17.360 murders.

01:24:18.540 While the city

01:24:19.580 of New York

01:24:20.240 let go a

01:24:21.000 collective sigh of

01:24:22.000 relief after the

01:24:23.040 arrest of Berkowitz,

01:24:24.680 some observers

01:24:25.500 quickly realized

01:24:26.720 that many details

01:24:27.980 were not adding up.

01:24:30.340 A close analysis

01:24:31.340 of eyewitness

01:24:32.180 accounts did not

01:24:33.680 match the

01:24:34.220 whereabouts of

01:24:35.020 Berkowitz in

01:24:35.760 several crime

01:24:36.480 scenes.

01:24:37.680 Furthermore,

01:24:38.900 Berkowitz looked

01:24:39.660 nothing like several

01:24:40.880 composite sketches

01:24:41.880 released by the

01:24:42.820 police.

01:24:43.980 Many of the

01:24:44.520 sketches happened

01:24:45.280 to closely resemble

01:24:46.280 other members of

01:24:47.260 his coven.

01:24:48.620 Berkowitz even

01:24:49.380 confirmed in an

01:24:50.300 interview that one

01:24:51.740 of the suspects

01:24:52.500 in the sketches

01:24:53.200 was actually a

01:24:54.780 high-level woman 0.99

01:24:55.900 who came in from

01:24:57.260 out of town to

01:24:58.160 take part in the

01:24:59.020 ritual killings.

01:25:01.240 There was also

01:25:01.940 another vital

01:25:02.840 element that was

01:25:03.800 completely ignored

01:25:04.760 by the police

01:25:05.500 force.

01:25:06.640 Nearly every clue

01:25:07.700 relating to this

01:25:08.620 case could only be

01:25:10.200 understood with

01:25:11.100 knowledge of

01:25:11.800 occultism,

01:25:12.820 witchcraft,

01:25:13.780 and black magic.

01:25:15.500 Shortly after his

01:25:16.800 incarceration,

01:25:18.440 David Berkowitz

01:25:19.280 began reaching out

01:25:20.680 to various

01:25:21.240 individuals through

01:25:22.280 letters that

01:25:23.380 provided relevant

01:25:24.300 information relating

01:25:25.520 to the case.

01:25:27.160 According to

01:25:27.740 Maury Terry,

01:25:29.100 David Berkowitz

01:25:29.960 wanted the

01:25:30.900 Son of Sam case

01:25:31.920 to be resolved

01:25:32.760 and more importantly,

01:25:34.760 he wanted the

01:25:35.360 truth to come out.

01:25:36.900 However,

01:25:37.900 he could not

01:25:38.500 outright rat out

01:25:39.900 cult members

01:25:40.720 because that would

01:25:41.560 put his family

01:25:42.340 and his own life

01:25:43.280 at risk.

01:25:44.780 In 1979,

01:25:46.700 Berkowitz sent a

01:25:47.700 letter to a

01:25:48.300 California preacher

01:25:49.220 that summed up

01:25:50.100 his situation.

01:25:51.640 I really don't

01:25:52.780 know how to

01:25:53.300 begin this letter,

01:25:54.160 but at one time

01:25:55.800 I was a member

01:25:57.200 of an occult group.

01:25:59.060 Being sworn to

01:26:00.000 secrecy and

01:26:01.440 face death,

01:26:02.760 I cannot reveal

01:26:03.480 the name of the

01:26:04.240 group,

01:26:05.120 nor do I wish

01:26:05.960 to.

01:26:06.940 This group

01:26:07.760 contained a

01:26:08.480 mixture of

01:26:09.060 satanic

01:26:09.560 practices which

01:26:11.000 included the

01:26:11.660 teachings of

01:26:12.320 Aleister Crowley

01:26:13.200 and Eliphas

01:26:14.340 Levy.

01:26:15.520 It was,

01:26:16.600 still is,

01:26:17.840 totally blood

01:26:18.640 oriented,

01:26:19.840 and I am

01:26:20.280 certain you

01:26:20.900 know just what

01:26:21.600 I mean.

01:26:22.040 The coven's

01:26:23.540 doctrines are

01:26:24.400 a blend of

01:26:25.060 ancient druidism,

01:26:26.740 the teachings

01:26:27.180 of the secret

01:26:27.900 order of the

01:26:28.600 golden dawn,

01:26:29.900 black magic,

01:26:31.360 and the host

01:26:31.960 of other

01:26:32.440 unlawful and

01:26:33.340 obnoxious

01:26:33.960 practices.

01:26:35.560 As I said,

01:26:36.440 I have no

01:26:37.200 interest in

01:26:37.920 revealing the

01:26:38.540 coven,

01:26:39.260 especially because

01:26:40.080 I have almost

01:26:40.780 met sudden

01:26:41.460 death on

01:26:42.020 several occasions,

01:26:43.600 once by

01:26:44.160 half an inch,

01:26:45.420 and several

01:26:45.900 others have

01:26:46.540 already perished

01:26:47.420 under mysterious

01:26:48.220 circumstances.

01:26:49.940 These people

01:26:50.520 will stop at

01:26:51.260 nothing,

01:26:52.200 including murder.

01:26:53.940 They have no

01:26:54.500 fear of man-made

01:26:55.680 laws or the

01:26:56.900 Ten Commandments.

01:26:58.560 I think it is

01:26:59.260 imperative that I

01:27:00.660 educate certain

01:27:01.520 people, people

01:27:03.060 whose job it is

01:27:04.040 to clean up

01:27:04.740 after this

01:27:05.280 coven.

01:27:06.580 Of course, I am

01:27:07.400 talking about the

01:27:08.260 authorities.

01:27:10.020 Actually, it is

01:27:11.300 my duty as a

01:27:12.240 citizen of this

01:27:13.000 planet to do

01:27:13.840 so, but it

01:27:15.360 would be up to

01:27:16.000 those concerned

01:27:16.940 people to do

01:27:17.820 their own

01:27:18.300 investigating,

01:27:19.020 knowing the

01:27:20.380 fearlessness and

01:27:21.220 dedication this

01:27:22.080 group possesses,

01:27:23.240 I fear greatly

01:27:24.540 for my family.

01:27:26.460 To break away

01:27:27.200 completely is

01:27:28.620 impossible because

01:27:30.000 of a pact each

01:27:30.960 new member signs

01:27:32.020 in his own

01:27:32.640 blood.

01:27:34.000 Also, each

01:27:35.440 new and

01:27:35.920 carefully screened

01:27:36.960 recruit supplies

01:27:38.340 a picture or

01:27:39.260 pictures of all

01:27:40.300 of his family

01:27:41.040 or her family

01:27:41.920 members, plus

01:27:43.400 their addresses.

01:27:44.040 These items are

01:27:46.140 used, if

01:27:46.800 necessary, as

01:27:48.080 tools for

01:27:48.620 blackmail,

01:27:49.600 coercion, and

01:27:50.920 eventually physical

01:27:51.900 harm should one 1.00

01:27:53.100 attempt to betray

01:27:53.880 the group.

01:27:55.040 The group, Berkowitz

01:27:56.580 belonged to, was

01:27:58.100 named the

01:27:58.640 Children.

01:27:59.960 They often met

01:28:00.800 at night at

01:28:01.500 Untermyer Park in

01:28:02.660 Yonkers, New

01:28:03.380 York to partake in 0.96

01:28:04.580 black masses and 0.98

01:28:05.680 ritual sacrifices.

01:28:08.100 Complete with

01:28:08.860 sphinxes and

01:28:10.040 Masonic twin

01:28:10.920 pillars, Untermyer

01:28:12.640 Park was built on a

01:28:13.940 occult principles, and

01:28:15.440 filled with symbolism

01:28:16.700 relating to elite

01:28:17.760 secret societies.

01:28:19.720 It certainly

01:28:20.360 qualifies as a

01:28:21.500 sinister site.

01:28:23.400 Untermyer Park was

01:28:25.080 built by Samuel J.

01:28:26.560 Untermyer, an 0.73

01:28:27.900 extremely powerful

01:28:28.920 figure in United

01:28:29.900 States history, who

01:28:31.440 was deeply connected

01:28:32.440 with the occult

01:28:33.240 elite.

01:28:34.620 According to

01:28:35.260 Mori Terry,

01:28:36.540 Untermyer was a

01:28:37.520 member of the New

01:28:38.280 York City Temple of

01:28:39.420 the Hermetic Order of

01:28:40.440 the Golden Dawn, one

01:28:42.060 of the most powerful

01:28:43.120 occult secret societies

01:28:44.580 of its day.

01:28:46.540 During the 1970s,

01:28:48.500 Untermyer Park was

01:28:49.680 in an advanced state

01:28:50.840 of neglect and

01:28:52.000 became a meeting

01:28:52.740 place for the

01:28:53.560 children who met in

01:28:54.960 an abandoned

01:28:55.560 building they

01:28:56.380 called the Devil's

01:28:57.500 Cave.

01:28:58.600 In a 1993

01:29:00.140 interview, Dirkowitz

01:29:02.060 described what

01:29:02.960 happened in the

01:29:03.700 Devil's Cave.

01:29:04.460 We had a spot where

01:29:06.840 there was like a

01:29:07.520 circle with rocks.

01:29:09.280 You could actually

01:29:09.920 feel like a force

01:29:11.820 out there, a

01:29:13.080 presence out there

01:29:13.960 in the darkness.

01:29:15.380 We began to hear

01:29:16.660 more and more

01:29:17.500 conversations about

01:29:18.680 witchcraft, about 0.96

01:29:20.200 black magic.

01:29:21.920 We were really having

01:29:22.960 little religious

01:29:23.740 services almost.

01:29:25.700 I did begin to

01:29:26.700 witness some animal

01:29:27.620 sacrifices.

01:29:29.260 We were at a

01:29:29.880 park.

01:29:30.940 I guess it was

01:29:31.580 Untermyer Park.

01:29:32.460 We had this circle

01:29:34.200 formed and we

01:29:35.620 said, okay, let's

01:29:37.160 start chanting now.

01:29:38.620 Let's call the names

01:29:39.760 of the demons.

01:29:43.340 podcast.

01:29:44.060 I want to talk about

01:29:44.760 the most important

01:29:45.600 tool in my podcast

01:29:46.840 belt.

01:29:55.480 changer for me was

01:30:37.740 That's S-P-R-E-A-K-E-R 1.00

01:30:40.220 dot com.

01:30:40.960 Let's call Satan's

01:30:42.500 name.

01:30:43.560 Let's call Lucifer.

01:30:45.360 Let's bring him.

01:30:46.900 Let's summon from the

01:30:47.960 netherworld, from the

01:30:49.340 air, and let's ask him

01:30:51.100 to anoint you, to

01:30:52.580 knight you as one of

01:30:53.560 his royal soldiers, to

01:30:54.900 do his bidding, to do

01:30:56.540 his will.

01:30:57.980 There were definitely

01:30:58.840 lots of arsons.

01:31:00.680 These demons wanted

01:31:01.820 fire.

01:31:03.280 Was this Lucifer?

01:31:05.540 Yes, it was Lucifer.

01:31:07.460 It was Moloch, another

01:31:09.140 god who wanted fire

01:31:10.320 sacrifices.

01:31:12.280 In another interview,

01:31:14.020 Berkowitz revealed the

01:31:15.140 true meaning of the name

01:31:16.380 Son of Sam.

01:31:18.340 Sadly, the psychiatrists

01:31:19.920 or the psychologists are

01:31:21.200 so blind.

01:31:22.460 You know, I tried to

01:31:23.720 explain to them what was

01:31:24.820 happening, but they

01:31:26.020 couldn't grasp it.

01:31:27.620 Who Sam really was.

01:31:29.540 I hate to talk about

01:31:30.680 this because they have

01:31:32.100 made a joke about this

01:31:33.240 for so very long.

01:31:34.960 You know, the talking

01:31:35.780 dog.

01:31:37.240 Basically, I had given

01:31:38.880 them the whole thing in

01:31:39.960 a nutshell, and they

01:31:41.340 never quite caught on

01:31:42.500 that the highest ranking

01:31:43.660 demon is Samhain.

01:31:46.560 And these people who

01:31:47.480 died, sadly, were

01:31:49.900 him.

01:31:51.120 The letter that was

01:31:52.260 sent to the journalist

01:31:53.340 Jimmy Breslin during

01:31:55.020 the Son of Sam killings

01:31:56.220 alluded to occult

01:31:57.780 practices of the

01:31:58.840 children.

01:32:00.080 First, hello from the

01:32:01.880 gutters of NYC with a

01:32:03.960 reference to Untermeyer

01:32:05.080 Park, which was built

01:32:06.620 adjacent to the massive

01:32:07.960 old Proton Aqueduct

01:32:09.460 system, which is also

01:32:11.480 believed to have been

01:32:12.440 the site of underground

01:32:13.600 meetings.

01:32:14.980 The letter also mentions

01:32:16.420 dog manure, vomit,

01:32:18.400 stale wine, urine, and

01:32:20.140 blood.

01:32:21.220 All elements used in

01:32:22.700 witchcraft.

01:32:24.160 While the children

01:32:24.980 allegedly began as a

01:32:26.340 group of wayward young

01:32:27.480 people gabbling with

01:32:29.080 drugs and occult

01:32:30.020 practices, inside the

01:32:31.860 insiders, including

01:32:32.900 Berkowitz himself, have

01:32:34.860 indicated that it was

01:32:36.040 infiltrated by a powerful

01:32:37.460 group to carry out an

01:32:39.440 infernal task.

01:32:41.280 Their goal was to

01:32:43.180 commit the ultimate

01:32:44.200 sacrifice.

01:32:45.940 There was even a letter

01:32:47.140 that David Berkowitz had

01:32:48.420 left in his apartment, a

01:32:50.500 letter that was found and

01:32:51.680 withheld by the police

01:32:52.740 department, in which

01:32:54.260 Berkowitz wrote a warning

01:32:55.540 to all the police agencies in

01:32:57.820 the tri-state area, claiming

01:32:59.940 that there was a well-established

01:33:01.500 satanic cult organization

01:33:03.160 which had, as its goal, the

01:33:05.920 ritual murders of 100

01:33:07.640 young men and women.

01:33:10.220 Berkowitz was interrogated for

01:33:11.920 about 30 minutes in the early

01:33:13.500 morning of August 11, 1977.

01:33:16.860 He had quickly confessed to the

01:33:18.360 shootings and eagerly expressed

01:33:20.420 an interest in pleading guilty.

01:33:22.960 The investigation was led by John

01:33:25.200 Keenan, who took the confession.

01:33:28.020 During questioning, Berkowitz

01:33:29.840 originally claimed that his

01:33:31.340 neighbor's dog was one of the

01:33:32.920 reasons that he killed, stating

01:33:35.000 that the dog demanded the blood

01:33:36.820 of pretty young girls.

01:33:38.760 He said that the Sam mentioned in

01:33:40.580 the first letter was his former

01:33:42.600 neighbor, Sam Carr, and that

01:33:44.760 Harvey, Carr's black Labrador, was

01:33:47.680 possessed by an ancient demon which

01:33:50.080 issued irresistible commands that 0.99

01:33:52.140 Berkowitz kill people. 0.98

01:33:53.440 At a press conference in February

01:33:56.100 1979, however, Berkowitz declared

01:33:59.320 that his previous claims of

01:34:00.940 demonic possession were a hoax and

01:34:03.560 even suggested he had carried out

01:34:05.860 the killings with multiple

01:34:07.180 accomplices.

01:34:08.960 After his admission to Sullivan

01:34:10.440 prison, Berkowitz began to claim

01:34:13.020 that he had joined a satanic cult in

01:34:15.100 the spring of 1975.

01:34:17.580 In 1993, he made these claims known

01:34:20.980 when he announced to the press that

01:34:23.140 he had killed only three of the Son of

01:34:25.200 Sam victims, Gloria, Izzo, and

01:34:28.080 Soriani.

01:34:29.020 He said that he and several other

01:34:31.260 cult members were involved in every

01:34:33.800 incident by planning the events,

01:34:36.040 providing early surveillance of the

01:34:37.740 victims, and acting as lookouts and

01:34:40.240 drivers at the crime scenes.

01:34:41.760 It's important to note, Berkowitz stated,

01:34:45.320 he did not divulge the names of most of

01:34:48.140 his accomplices without putting his

01:34:50.220 family directly at risk.

01:34:52.600 In the 1977 Breslin letter, allegedly

01:34:55.600 written by the killer, the cult group

01:34:58.020 seems to be referenced as the 22

01:35:00.740 disciples of hell.

01:35:03.000 We should mention the fact that once

01:35:04.840 Berkowitz took the rap and was

01:35:06.720 apprehended by authorities,

01:35:08.240 21 others affiliated with the cult were

01:35:11.960 promptly killed.

01:35:14.060 Within a year of his sentencing, he was

01:35:16.400 moved to the Attica Correctional Facility.

01:35:19.400 Berkowitz had recently made the mistake of

01:35:21.980 publicly revealing the existence of his

01:35:24.100 accomplices.

01:35:25.180 It was then that he would be violently

01:35:27.680 attacked by fellow inmate William

01:35:29.700 Hauser, a career criminal, biker, who was

01:35:33.160 never charged.

01:35:34.000 This attempt on Berkowitz's life resulted

01:35:37.960 in a wound requiring more than 50

01:35:40.220 stitches to close, as Hauser had slashed

01:35:43.140 the left side of his throat from front

01:35:45.080 to back.

01:35:46.140 The majority of these accomplices would

01:35:48.380 remain unnamed.

01:35:49.980 However, Berkowitz did inevitably name two

01:35:53.160 of the cult members, John and Michael Carr.

01:35:56.780 The two men were sons of the dog owner, Sam

01:36:00.460 Carr, and they lived on nearby Warburton

01:36:03.380 Avenue.

01:36:04.960 Both of these other sons of Sam were long

01:36:07.860 dead.

01:36:09.060 John Carr had been killed in a shooting

01:36:11.020 which was suspiciously ruled a suicide in

01:36:13.660 North Dakota during 1978, less than a year

01:36:17.700 after Berkowitz was arrested.

01:36:20.220 And Michael Carr had been in a fatal car

01:36:22.440 accident in October of 1979, despite the

01:36:26.320 fact investigator Maury Terry and Carr's

01:36:28.700 former classmate described the death as

01:36:31.560 suspicious and suggested there was evidence

01:36:33.960 that he was run off the road intentionally.

01:36:37.240 Berkowitz claimed that the perpetrator of

01:36:39.540 the Damacy Lamino shooting was John Carr, and he

01:36:43.600 even added that a Yonkers police officer, also a cult

01:36:47.440 member, was actually involved in this crime.

01:36:50.040 He also claimed that Michael Carr was the one who fired

01:36:54.520 the shots at Lupo and Placido outside the Eliphas

01:36:57.480 Disco Club in June of 1977.

01:37:00.920 According to Terry, Michael Carr had been an active member of

01:37:04.920 the Church of Scientology and noted that Berkowitz, at the

01:37:08.520 time of his arrest, had been in possession of a list of

01:37:12.200 telephone numbers, including the number for the Fort Harrison

01:37:15.960 Hotel, the church's spiritual headquarters in Clearwater, Florida.

01:37:21.560 In a video interview made public in 2016, Berkowitz actually

01:37:26.680 admitted that he had been heavily influenced by reading literature

01:37:30.680 from the Process Church of the Final Judgment.

01:37:34.080 Before we conclude, there is an additional significant thread worth

01:37:39.340 pulling, which seamlessly ties in to this dark occult underground,

01:37:44.060 providing a unique window into the sinister synchronicities

01:37:47.440 malevolently devising our prevailing paradigm of power.

01:37:52.500 According to a brilliant article written by David Livingstone,

01:37:56.920 Rosemary's Baby in Chinatown, and produced by famous Hollywood

01:38:01.420 executive Robert Evans, who was linked to the Process Church

01:38:05.420 through his friendship with one of its leaders.

01:38:08.780 In The Ultimate Evil, Mori Terry links the Process Church to the 1.00

01:38:13.180 Sons of Sam. Peter Lavenda, the suspected author of the

01:38:17.420 Necronomicon, admitted in Sinister Forces that he and his circle 0.65

01:38:22.460 also had several friends in common with the son of Sam himself,

01:38:26.700 who all visited the magical child bookshop in Chelsea, founded by

01:38:31.340 Herman Slater, an American Wiccan high priest.

01:38:35.340 The magical child also served as the launching pad for the explosive

01:38:39.980 growth of Aleister Crowley's O.T.O. in the city.

01:38:44.140 Robert Anton Wilson and Robert Shea had just published their Illuminatus

01:38:48.880 trilogy, and interest in secret societies and occult lore was sweeping

01:38:53.740 through counterculture circles.

01:38:55.520 Brady McMurtry was attempting to revive the O.T.O. in California and had just

01:39:01.800 succeeded in having Crowley's Thoth tarot deck published.

01:39:05.920 According to Lavenda, from that year until 1984, I found myself in the center of many of the incidents

01:39:13.040 recounted in Terry's book, at least those that involved the Warlock Shop, Brooklyn Heights,

01:39:18.840 the O.T.O., and the various other secret societies and cults with their tenuous connections to the

01:39:24.840 Scientologists, the Process Church of the Final Judgment, the Church of Satan, the Ku Klux Klan, 0.85

01:39:31.400 the National Renaissance Party, and all the various witchcraft covens and personalities.

01:39:37.240 From the Gardnerians to the Alexandrians and Welsh traditionalists, from Raymond Buckland to Leo

01:39:43.960 Martello and Margot Adler, from covens gay and straight and mixed to covens clothed and sky-clad,

01:39:51.880 what was going on was much more blatant, much more vigorous than even Terry suspected.

01:39:58.520 As Terry reported, Berkowitz attended parties in Connecticut, at the house of Roy Cohn, Donald Trump's

01:40:06.600 mentor, who happened to run a pedophile blackmail network, strongly resembling the operation of

01:40:13.000 one Jeffrey Epstein. According to John DeCamp, author of the Franklin cover-up, the sexual blackmail

01:40:20.520 operation of Edwin Wilson, Iran-Contra operator and leading member of Ted Shackley's secret team

01:40:27.080 and the JFK Operation 40 assassination team, was merely a continuation of the one set up by Roy Cohn

01:40:35.240 during the McCarthy era with Louis Rosenstiel and J. Edgar Hoover. According to his CIA partner,

01:40:43.160 Frank Turpel, Wilson ran a CIA-directed sexual blackmailing pedophile ring of the kind which

01:40:50.440 were intensive in Washington at about the time of the Watergate scandal. Cohn admitted to NYPD

01:40:57.160 Detective James Rothstein that he was part of an elaborate sexual blackmail operation that compromised 0.72

01:41:04.360 politicians with child prostitutes carried out as part of an anti-communist crusade. 0.85

01:41:11.560 According to Rothstein, Cohn's job was to run the little boys. Say you had an admiral, a general, 0.97

01:41:19.080 a congressman who did not want to go along with the program. Cohn's job was to set them up. Then

01:41:26.200 they would go along. Cohn told me that himself. Rothstein also had an opportunity to speak to

01:41:34.120 infamous Operation 40 Watergate burglar Frank Sturgis, who revealed that one of the reasons for

01:41:40.440 breaking into the Democratic National Committee headquarters was a hidden pedophile book which

01:41:46.520 was supposed to have a list of politicians. Thought in the deluge, we are vehemently enveloped by a

01:41:53.720 strong sense of foreboding. According to David Berkowitz, the Process Church provided children

01:42:00.680 for sex at parties held by wealthy people in Westchester, Manhattan, Connecticut, and Long Island.

01:42:08.120 Berkowitz informed Terry that one of these parties were held at Roy Cohn's house in Connecticut.

01:42:13.960 Additionally, two further witnesses maintained that occasionally present at these parties

01:42:21.160 were a Yonkers judge, at least two Westchester County politicians, a high-ranking New York State

01:42:27.720 politician, a celebrated but later murdered physician, a Nobel Prize-winning doctor, and two

01:42:34.680 aides to then-mayor of New York City Abraham Beam. What if an organization existed, providing bold

01:42:43.000 connections between the most infamous serial killers in American history, various satanic cult groups

01:42:49.640 well-versed in occult principles with deep ties to elite secret societies, and sinister covert action

01:42:57.160 wielding insidious clandestine operational methods? Have we largely been conditioned to oversimplify the

01:43:04.920 underlying motivations driving such irrational human action as disturbing and evil and serial

01:43:11.400 ritual murder? Whether it be through calculated deception, or the desperate need for a plausible

01:43:18.520 explanation, the end result remains the same. This week, we set out looking for the truth,

01:43:26.520 only to find the truth, almost too frightening to contemplate. Into this abyss we reluctantly walk,

01:43:35.160 not knowing we have vastly underestimated the scope of the ultimate evil.

01:43:41.160 walk, wait, bring the dreaded Expandedest currently, and forget that we are

01:43:50.520 www.mysteraría.nu

01:43:55.800 to throwing there

01:43:58.440 Thank you.
