Major Crimes and True Crime

On December 29, 1942, in the afternoon, four prisoners escaped from the Auschwitz Concentration Camp: Otto Küsel, Jan Baras, Mieczyslaw Januszewski, and Dr. Boleslaw Kuczbara. Otto Küsel, a German Jew who worked as a horse cart driver, loaded four cabinets with the other three prisoners hidden inside. Since this was part of his usual work, the SS guards didn’t check him, and he was able to reach an open field without being stopped. Mieczyslaw Januszewski, who was dressed in an SS uniform and carrying a rifle, sat next to Küsel as they left the camp. Januszewski showed a fake SS identification, which helped them escape. After leaving, they contacted a Polish resistance group called the Polish Home Army for help. Many escapes from Auschwitz took place from outside work sites. The support of local civilians was crucial for the success of these escapes. The Auschwitz camp commander wrote in 1940 that the local Polish people were strongly against the SS and would do anything to help escapee...

On March 18, 1980, John Favara of Howard Beach, New York made the worst mistake of his life — and the last. He was driving through his neighborhood when a 12-year-old boy darted out in front of him on a motorbike. Favara, who was reportedly drunk and speeding at the time, struck the boy and dragged him some 200 feet before he even realized what had happened. What Favara also didn't realize at first was that the boy he had just run over was the middle son of his neighbor — none other than legendary mob boss John Gotti. Soon after, Favara disappeared and was never heard from again. Gotti is rumored to have had Favara dismembered with a chainsaw while he was still alive and then dissolved in a vat of acid, but nothing has ever been proven to this day.

In May 2020, Eleanor Williams made a post on Facebook claiming that she had been gang-rậped by Asian men in her small town of Barrow, England. She also posted pictures of herself showing one of her eyes severely swollen, her legs and stomach covered in bruises, and the tip of her little finger nearly severed. People went crazy protesting against Asian men in the small town. Funds were raised, and groups were formed to fight for justice. Asian business owners in the area were met with extreme hatred, and three of them even attempted to ǩ-ill themselves. Eleanor claimed that the Asian business owners operated a s-x trafficking gang, and she even provided a list of other victims. When police began investigating the list, they were baffled when none of the supposed victims corroborated Eleanor's claims. It was then that investigators realized that all of her accusations were fabricated. She was ultimately sentenced to 8.5 years in prison.  Continue reading

Noir Crime: The Mad Killer Of Suffolk County A lone plate sat on the counter top at Bailey’s Restaurant in Westhampton Beach. There was a fried egg that lay untouched on the plate. Beyond the table, the cash register door was opened and all the cash was gone. A customer cautiously called out for the proprietors and got no answer.  It was still hot in the early morning hours of August 9, 1959 in Westhampton Beach and the weary customer had decided to stop at the new establishment for a cup of coffee. Bailey’s had been open for only six weeks. The customer later told police he had been wanting to try the coffee there. He also reported that as soon as he entered the restaurant, he felt that something was wrong. But he continued to call out.  Thinking the restaurant staff was most likely busy in the back area, he peered through the door marked “Employees Only” and noticed that the rest room door was ajar and something was lying on the floor. As his eyes adjusted to the dim lightin...
