Who Was The Boy In The Box???

     It is such a hard crime to read about, a young child, lay dead in a box found in Philadelphia. How could someone do such a thing? In February of 1957, this unknown boy was found in a box along the side of an unpaved road. The boy appeared to be about 4 years old and his face was bruised and his hair was all chopped off. Still, to this day, not a single person has ever come forward with knowing who this young boy was. According to, http://www.vidocq.org/northeast/boybox.html, Over the years, the investigation has been taken on by both local and federal agencies that have dedicated thousands of man-hours pursuing dozens of promising leads, none of which has come to fruition. The investigation died and was reborn several times.
    

A 26 year old college student is the one who had found the box with the boy inside it, he had fund it when he snuck out one night to spy on some of the girls in a private dorm. Some investigators had tried their whole careers trying to figure out who this boy was and try and solve his heartless murder.
     Months later, the  police had decided to bury the child in the Potter Field Cemetery. This grave was the only grave in the whole place that had been marked with a tombstone. On the tombstone, it read " Heavenly Father, Bless This Unknown Boy". Some investigators spent over 35 years on this case, and they never got anywhere. However, that never stopped them from trying. Some had believed that the boy's death was accidental, and that the people didn't come forward because it was ruled as a homicide.
They had pictures of this boy everywhere and anywhere and no one had ever come forward and said anything about knowing the child. To this day the police thought they had so many leads but every single one of them turned out to just be a big bust. No one knew anything about this boy in a box. It has been like that since the day that he was found.

The Boy's Tombstone

    In my opinion, this is so sad. An innocent young child had his life taken away, and then was just thrown in a box and dumped along the street. "It takes all kinds of people to make up this world", that is something my grandmother always tells me, and i feel that this is very true. Especially when you are reading a sad story like this and just wish like crazy that you could just do one thing that would have put his parents at ease.

A Picture Of The Child



John Allen Muhammad...The Trunk Snyper....

John Muhammad

This is a man that you could look into the eyes of and never be able to see right through. He was a man that made a snyper nest out of his trunk. In 2009, he was executed for the killing of ten people. As well as injuring three others. Born John Allen Williams on December 31, 1960, in Louisiana. John Allen Muhammad became an infamous figure American culture as part of a sniper team that terrorized the Washington, D.C. area for several weeks in October 2002. He was raised by an aunt in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, after his mother died when he was 4.
In October 2002, in D.C, he had decided to go in for the kill, literally. He actually was a divorcee, and in the miltaryy, after all that he converted himself to Islam. He had three children. He took off with his three children out of the country. Later the police came and took him and his children back into the U.S. and his ex-wife got the custody of the children. After all that happend John went mad and started trying to control other's while he lived among the different homeless shelters.
A skilled mechanic, Muhammad put his talents to evil use, making a sniper nest out of the trunk of his car. He and Malvo worked as team in the shooting with one man firing the rifle while the other watched the victims. They often targeted people doing simple, everyday tasks, such as pumping their gas or leaving a store. In total, they killed 10 people and injured three others in the D.C. area.
After several killings, Muhammad and Malvo began to taunt the police.
He had demanded ten million dollars in order to stop the shootings.
On October 24, more than 20 days after the rampage began, the authorities surrounded the vehicle in which Muhammad and Malvo. They were taken into custody and arrested. Since they committed their crimes in several states, the authorities had to decide where the pair should be tried first. Muhammad and Malvo had separate trials. In his defense, his lawyers pointed to Malvo as the sole triggerman. Still a 2003 jury for the murder of Dean Harold Meyers recommended that he be sentenced to death. And he was convicted on six counts of murder in another trial in Maryland in 2006. Malvo testified against Muhammad during this trial, saying that Muhammad had pulled the trigger on the first six shootings.

A Family, A Cult, A Secret Within...

 Have you ever heard of a cannibal? It is a human that consumes... another human. It is against the law of course, but this post is about a family. A family that was part of a cult, and not just any cult, it was a cannabalistic cult.
This is the Mauerova family, very disturbingly, they locked their eight year old son in the basement for a long period of time. He was tortured annd sexually abused over and over again. But even worse, he was partially skinned and consumed. They had made him eat some of his own raw flesh.
The horrific acts were finally revealed when a neighbour of the house, in Brno in the Czech Republic, installed an identical wireless video baby monitor to the one Klara Mauerova had installed so she could watch her children suffer from the comfort of the sitting room.
When the neighbour switched on his baby monitor shocking images of the boys naked, bound and gagged in their cellar appeared on the screen. The unnamed neighbour immediately informed the police and they broke down the door of the house to investigate.They chained up their nine year old son and he was forced to cut himself with a knife.
Klara Mauerova and her sister Katerina, and Barbora Skrlova were all members of a sinister religious cult called the Grail movement. They were caught and put in jail in 2007 -2008. The boys'were placed in special care and they were never reunited with their mother.


mother after being arrested

I feel that this is extremely sad and disturbing. I feel so sorry for those two young boys'. i can't even begin to understand what their feelings and thoughts were while all that was going on. I hope so much that this doesn't have major effects on them as they get older.
