Well, at least she's being treated like the incarnation of a divinity. Children have been brutally sacrificed for less.

Sam: "What assurance do you give, Taraka, that this bargain will be kept?"
Taraka: "My word? I shall be happy to swear by anything you care to name--"
Sam: "A facility with oaths is not the most reassuring quality in a bargainer..."

Dark sorcerer's stealing dicks:

Quote
KINSHASA (Reuters) - Police in Congo have arrested 13 suspected sorcerers accused of using black magic to steal or shrink men's penises after a wave of panic and attempted lynchings triggered by the alleged witchcraft.

Reports of so-called penis snatching are not uncommon in West Africa, where belief in traditional religions and witchcraft remains widespread, and where ritual killings to obtain blood or body parts still occur.

Rumours of penis theft began circulating last week in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo's sprawling capital of some 8 million inhabitants. They quickly dominated radio call-in shows, with listeners advised to beware of fellow passengers in communal taxis wearing gold rings.

Purported victims, 14 of whom were also detained by police, claimed that sorcerers simply touched them to make their genitals shrink or disappear, in what some residents said was an attempt to extort cash with the promise of a cure.

"You just have to be accused of that, and people come after you. We've had a number of attempted lynchings. ... You see them covered in marks after being beaten," Kinshasa's police chief, Jean-Dieudonne Oleko, told Reuters on Tuesday.

Police arrested the accused sorcerers and their victims in an effort to avoid the sort of bloodshed seen in Ghana a decade ago, when 12 suspected penis snatchers were beaten to death by angry mobs. The 27 men have since been released.

"I'm tempted to say it's one huge joke," Oleko said.

"But when you try to tell the victims that their penises are still there, they tell you that it's become tiny or that they've become impotent. To that I tell them, 'How do you know if you haven't gone home and tried it'," he said.

Some Kinshasa residents accuse a separatist sect from nearby Bas-Congo province of being behind the witchcraft in revenge for a recent government crackdown on its members.

"It's real. Just yesterday here, there was a man who was a victim. We saw. What was left was tiny," said 29-year-old Alain Kalala, who sells phone credits near a Kinshasa police station.

Damnit man you beat me to it!  :laugh: I just heard about this about 30 minutes ago.

This story is insta-classic! Amazing how there's still belief in black magic, sorcery and uh... junk snatching.   :hmm:

Quote from: AP
AMSTETTEN, Austria - The children locked in the basement never saw the light of day for years. A retired electrician has confessed to imprisoning his daughter for 24 years and fathering seven children with her in a windowless cell sealed by an electronic keyless-entry system, police said Monday.

Full story

This raises so many questions for me.  Like how the hell did he get away with it for so long, and what made him do something like this.  Especially given how many children she had while kept in captivity by him.  I'm amazed she survived seven pregnancies without a doctor around.

How could a 19 year old and a 42 year old not overwelm a 72 year old man? They must have been so used to living there that they didnt try escape or something. It's a pity he's too old to spend his entire life rotting in jail.

Why?
uh, infection?  having a baby isn't just pushing really hard then cutting the cord.

this news sounds like something out of a crappy modern horror movie that has a one word title like BASEMENT or something.

Let's begin counting down until this appears as a storyline on Law & Order SVU.

Yes it is. For normal pregnancies it's far more dangerous to have one in a hospital than elsewhere.

so you're telling me it's perfectly 100% safe to have my child on the basement floor with no steralized equipment and i should yank the cord out of her fucking hootch and just leave all the blood laying there?

dudes, how much does a keyless electronic lock system cost because i'm gonna lock my sister in the basement have seben kids

Done. Crappy little photoshop by me.


I didn't have the heart to change the producers name since it fit the motif. Also 1956 version used for class.  :laugh:

I think there's one real crim like this once, imprison a girl  in the basement. But that one they tortured her to death.  But this...24 years! I don't want to know what was her thinking during all those years :(

She had a tv, a bathroom, a bed, and hot plates. The things needed to kill a person are well within those items, and you'd think that being raped for some 15 years would get the nerve up enough to act.
