Agnes Ritchie, a server at a small tea room in Victoria Park, squinted her eyes to try and see further. She couldn’t quite believe what she was seeing. 2 girls running toward the tea room shouting for help.. She had just served them less than half an hour ago- but when she last saw them, they were with a woman, presumably their mother.
Now, the girls were alone. Panicked and terrified. And as they got closer, she noticed they were both covered in blood.

Two Dead, One Missing: The Tragedies of the OneCoin Scam
In 2017, Dr. Ruja Ignatova boarded a plane in Bulgaria and vanished.
She wasn’t just any fugitive—she was the mastermind behind OneCoin, a fake cryptocurrency that scammed investors out of $5 billion. When the authorities closed in, she disappeared without a trace.
But here’s where things turn deadly.
Since Ruja’s disappearance, people connected to her have been turning up dead.
A former police officer in Bulgaria was executed outside his home. The man suspected of ordering that hit? Shot dead, execution-style, in Cape Town.
No suspects. No arrests. Just bodies piling up.
So, where is Ruja? Did she escape? Is she ordering these assassinations from the shadows?
Or did she become the final victim of her own billion-dollar scam?

Eleanor and Jussie
She was the face of survival—her body bruised, her eye swollen shut, her story one of unimaginable abuse. Eleanor Williams claimed she had been trafficked, raped, and beaten by a ruthless gang. Her town rallied behind her, enraged at the horror she described. But as detectives pulled apart her version of events, a darker truth emerged: the injuries were self-inflicted, the traffickers never existed, and the town that had fought for justice had been deceived in the most unforgivable way.

The Hinterkaifeck Murders
In a remote farmhouse in the Bavarian countryside, the Gruber family lived isolated from the world. One night, in 1922, the entire family is brutally murdered—lured one by one into the barn, bludgeoned to death by an unseen hand. But here’s where it gets chilling: the killer didn’t leave. For days, they lived in the house, eating meals, and keeping the fires burning.
The Hinterkaifeck murders remain one of the most horrifying unsolved cases in history, shrouded in eerie clues, mysterious footsteps, and unanswered questions. Who could commit such an act—and why? This is the story that will keep you up at night.
