American kidnapped in Mexico, left to die in jungle with eyes, wrists taped

A New York man living in Mexico is lucky to be alive after several men abducted him and held him for a $200,000 ransom. 

The kidnappers taped Joseph Constantine Buonincontri’s eyes shut and bound him by his wrists and ankles, and left him deep in a jungle in Limones, Mexico, a remote area about 200 miles southwest of Cancun. 
Locals tipped off the police about armed men driving a taxi from Tulum, a popular resort area, into the secluded wilderness, which sparked a rescue mission by the Mexican military and the Mexican National Guard. 

The 35-year-old New Yorker was alive, but tied up in a straw hut, according to the Quintana Roo Attorney General’s Office, which said authorities recovered a backpack with marijuana, a tactical vest and loaded magazines for an AR-15.

Bodybuilder Sally McNeil had a volatile relationship with her first husband, Anthony Lowden.

Image
The pair split in 1986 after four years of marriage when McNeil reportedly pulled a revolver on Lowden and dropped a 70-pound weight onto his car from a balcony. Sally married Ray McNeil in 1987. Her second marriage the fellow bodybuilder was equally dysfunctional, involving incidents such as Sally attacking a woman with whom she believed her husband was cheating. On Valentine's Day 1995, the McNeils' relationship reached a climax when Ray began choking Sally during a fight. She then shot him twice with a shotgun, once in the gut and once in the head. Though Ray was conscious when the police arrived, he passed several hours after the incident. That same year, Sally McNeil was convicted of second-degree murder and was sentenced to 19 years to life in prison. McNeil maintained that she was acting in self-defense.

The Russian Sleep Experiment

Image
purports to recount an experiment that took place at a test facility in the Soviet Union in the late 1940s. In a military-sanctioned scientific experiment, five political prisoners were kept in a sealed gas chamber, with a continually administered airborne stimulant for the purpose of keeping the subjects awake for 15 continuous days. The prisoners are falsely promised freedom if they complete the experiment. The subjects behave normally during the initial days, talking to each other and whispering to the researchers through the one-way glass, though it is noted their discussions gradually become darker in subject matter. After nine days, one subject begins screaming uncontrollably for hours while the others have no reaction to his outburst. When a second begins screaming, the others prevent the researchers from looking inside by pasting torn book pages and their own feces on the porthole windows. A few days pass without the researchers being able to look inside, during which the cham...

What innocent-seeming picture is actually heartbreaking?

Image
trigger Warning. The image below could potentially be triggering for some viewers as it is not %100 innocent if you look closely- Ok, so this picture doesn't exactly seem innocent, but it doesn't seem too tragic or abnormal either. In this picture we can see a woman crying, walking away from a man that seems to be having an arguement from behind. That's not what's really going on though. Take a look at the picture and observe the background as well and I'll explain. This picture was taken August 11, 1947, Los Angelos, California. Mr. John Thomas and his wife decided to go on a picnic with their two children. They brought with them their 9-year-old son, Raymond, and 7-year-old daughter, Patricia, to nearby Hansen Dam for the picnic. Both children wandered off out of sight and ended up missing until the following morning. The chief lifeguard, F.M Cox, discovered Patricia's body, drowned in the dam reservoir, and brought her to shore. This photo shows the lifeguar...
