In 1977, Joyce McKinney kidnapped a Mormon missionary at gunpoint, chained him to a Devon cottage bed, and allegedly raped him for three days. She fled Britain disguised as a deaf-mute mime.
Years later she resurfaced in South Korea, having cloned her dead dog.

The images from this photo shoot are beautiful, I've added a lot more in the link below, along with some of the contact sheets.

Between 1900 - 30, a seed pedlar took more than 5000 photographs of daily life in an isolated valley to the south of the Alps. They were rediscovered after his death. I can't convey how amazing these images are. A handful are here, I've compiled a gallery of my favourites below.

"I opened the door, and there was Medgar at the steps, face down in blood," his wife later told People magazine. "The children ran out and were shouting, 'Daddy, get up!'"
It took 30 years and 3 trials to get his killer convicted.

Psychopaths in Cinema.
In 2014 psychiatrists studied 400 movies and identified 126 psychopathic characters.
They chose Javier Bardem’s portrayal of Anton Chigurh (No Country for Old Men) as the most clinically accurate portrayal of a psychopath.
