I fear this type of abomination could be a return of the so called “snuff films” ————many of them verified as real.
Ease of cell phone videos added to the total degradation of the human race (except on FR) may bring that trend back.
From the Encyclopedia of World Problems & Human Potential:
Snuff films are live videos of sexual violence where the victim is actually killed. They are the extreme end of sex and torture films, which usually involve excessive abuse and gratuitous violence to unconsenting children and women.
Such videos are shown and sold on the black market and difficult to trace. Those that have been seized by police are of questionable authenticity, but nonetheless provide a window into the undercover world of paedophiles, visual obscenity and sexual sado-masochism.
BACKGROUND
Rumours about snuff movies began circulating in Hollywood in the 1940s; but the term is thought to originate from an Argentine film made in the late 1970s, called “Snuff” (to “snuff it” is “to die”; to “be snuffed out” is to “be killed”).
INCIDENCE
In 1994 in the UK police seized some 5,000 films including films of deliberately staged killings. It is believed that many are made in South America where disappearances are common.”
There exists some circumstantial evidence that some of the Son of Sam murders were “snuff films.” Particularly that of the last victim, Stacy Robin Moskowitz. That was 45 years ago.
We have all seen snuff films since the GWOT and ISIS/ISIL.
