Admitted Satanic murderess, Miranda Barbour, then 19 years old made international headlines after she told a local reporter on Valentine’s Day that she was a serial killer.
In a jailhouse phone interview, she told the reporter that at 22 victims, “I stopped counting”
Miranda also known as the “Craigslist Killer,” said that she was ready to speak with the police about her other victims – “I can pinpoint on a map where you can find them.”
In another interview with reporter Francis Scarcella, she claimed that she belonged to a “satanic cult” in Alaska with her husband, Elytte Barbour since she was 13 years old.
In a Newsweek interview with Mathew Lysiak, Miranda said when she was 4, her “darkness” was created by her Uncle Rick, who sexually molested her.
Miranda was not even 3 years old when she and her sister who was 3 years older was molested by her uncle Richard Fernandez who had just moved five houses away from her family home with her aunt at the North Pole, Alaska.
The sexual abuse happened for over a year even after Miranda complained of her anus and vagina hurting on several occasions to her mother.
Eventually, Richard Fernandez was arrested and sentenced to 19 years in jail, but was released from prison early after serving only nine years and four months.
After his release, Fernandez was busted again for possession of child pornography after police investigators found hundreds of images on his computer, and sentenced him to 40-years in prison. He is scheduled to be released in 2035.
The details of the crime have been described by the trial judge as the most physically extreme case of abuse he had ever seen and are a matter of public record.
Soon thereafter, she would learn the ideologies of Satanism.
Miranda told Newsweek that she joined a satanic cult at the age of 12: “I kind of slid into it. But they weren’t just into Satan, there were into hating minorities too.”
She said that Satanism was a positive influence in her life and helped her harness that darkness inside of her—most of the time. “I worship a dark entity,” she explains, “but just because it is dark doesn’t mean that it is bad.”
Speaking to Pennsylvanian paper The Daily Item, Miranda’s mother, Elizabeth said that she started running away from home and fell into the clutches of a 25-year-old Satanist known only as Forrest.
Elizabeth said, ‘(Miranda) ran away from home when she was 12.
‘She got hooked up with a guy who was into satanic stuff, and when she came home one day, she told me that he owns her now.
‘I asked her what she was talking about, and she told me that this man owns her and she has to do whatever he says.
‘She said he branded her by carving a swastika on the back of her neck and his name on her thigh.
‘She told me she was out prostituting at 12-years-old and that this man was her ruler.’
And she has absolutely no regrets about killing Troy LaFerrara, or about the 22 other people she claims to have killed. “I felt no regret.
None,” she says. “I didn’t hurt anyone who didn’t deserve it.”
Claiming responsibility for the 22 additional deaths, Ms. Barbour told Sunbury’s The Daily Item that “I feel it is time to get all of this out. I don’t care if people believe me. I just want to get it out.”
She said to The Daily Item it was because she wanted to come clean and stop living a lie. She said she felt no remorse for her victims and said she killed only “bad people.”
“I feel it is time to get all of this out,” she said. “I don’t care if people believe me. I just want to get it out.”
Miranda said she spent the next three years in Alaska, continuing in the satanic cult, and claimed to have participated in several murders. To this date, police have yet to be able to verify if her statements of murdering 22 people are true.
Police in Pennsylvania told The Daily Item that they’re working with investigators from other states to probe possible connections to unsolved murders.
Alaska law enforcement sources said they couldn’t comment on whether they’d launched their own investigations into her time in Alaska.
What is true is that as a child, Miranda had one of the worst crimes committed against her when she was molested by a her sick uncle who was then released after only 9 years.
This will cause the victim to feel betrayal, powerlessness, and stigmatization that may have lasting impacts such as post traumatic stress, dissociation symptoms, mood disorders, depression, behavior problems, inappropriate sexualized behaviors, substance abuse, self harm and suicide.
Dr. Jeff Sugar, chief of the Child and Adolescent Trauma Psychiatry Program at the University of Southern California said;
“A 5-year-old can form a verbal representation of the events, the abuse. When younger, the child may sense something is wrong but is not able to describe it.”
He said that early sexual abuse can cause something known as developmental trauma disorder, or complex post-traumatic stress disorder, which results in complex PTSD can disrupt belief systems and create a clinging dependency on the abusive caregiver.
“Sometimes they will try to recreate scenarios that capture the essence of (their) trauma to experience it from a different perspective or to experience being in control,” Sugar said.
After the murders, in a jailhouse interview, Miranda would reveal what turned a little girl into a cold-blooded killer.
“People think I’m a monster, but I’ve done a lot of good.” She has said that her murders spared “hundreds” of young girls from abuse. “The justice system doesn’t work, so I did what I did.”
“I wasn’t always there (mentally),” she said, adding that she had begun to use drugs.
“I knew something was bad inside me and the satanic beliefs brought it out. I embraced it.”
You see – this statement by Miranda Barbour is the whole premise of this book.
She is a perfect example of someone who was abused as a child and her parents and the system failed in protecting and rehabilitating her.
She then discovered the perfect ideology for her rage known as Satanism. A philosophy that teaches adherents to take no shit and when someone trespasses against you – DESTROY THEM!
We can say that Miranda Barbour embraced the “Satanic State of Mind.”
And as a result, a man has been murdered without a trial and she now sits on death row for the rest of her life.

Since 2015, there have been dozens of reports all across the nation about U.S. public schools and libraries allowing convicted child predators to teach kids as young as 3 years old about LGBTQ+ ideologies at what are called, “Drag Queen Story Hour (DQSH)” events.
This is an actual picture of a recent event posted to a Long Beach, California public library’s Twitter account. Omar Navarro, Long Beach congressional candidate Tweeted that he was “outraged” after a drag queen sporting demon-like horns was invited to read to children as part of the Drag Queen Story Hour at the Michelle Obama Neighborhood Library.
Mochi later said it was one of his “best experiences…as a drag queen.”
“It’s so important to have representation and normalize all the letters in LGBTQIA+ in everyday lives,” he wrote in an Instagram post.
There is good reason to be outraged like Senator Navarro because it has been revealed that some of these drag queens are convicted child sex predators who should NOT be around children.
For example, in 2019, the Houston Public Library Drag Queen was convicted of multiple sexual assaults against young children. The man was photographed at a Drag Queen Story Hour (DQSH) event carrying a rubber chicken — a symbol used by homosexuals to indicate a sexual preference for young boys.
The drag queen Dylan Pontiff (Santana Pilar Andrews), a registered sex offender bluntly admitted the true purpose of the drag queen story hour.
“This is going to be the grooming of the next generation,” he said.
A convicted child predator, Pontiff also wrote an article in which he describes ‘Desmond is Amazing’ – the 12-year-old drag queen kid – as “hot”.
Another one of the participants at a drag queen story time event in Houston, 32-year-old Albert Alfonso Garza, AKA Tatiana Mala Nina, turned out to be a registered sex offender who was convicted of assaulting an eight-year-old boy in 2008.
After it was found that Albert Alfonso Garza and the outraged parents voiced their concerns, it turns out that the Houston Public Library did not even bother to perform a simple background check on the drag queens who would be in close contact with young children as required by U.S. Federal and state laws.
Hence, these school officials are violating federal and state legal statutes making them criminals who are complicit with child sex offenders granting them carte blanche access to our children.
“We were made aware today that one participant for Drag Queen storytime who read at the September 29, 2018, Drag Queen Storytime has a criminal background that should have prevented him from participating in the program.
We assure you that this participant will not be involved in any future HPL programs.
In our review of our process and of this participant, we discovered that we failed to complete a background check as required by our own guidelines. We deeply regret this oversight and the concern this may cause our customers. We realize this is a serious matter.”
“This is not about tolerance or anti-bullying,” Leslie Alexander, a member of the community, told the Lafayette Daily Advertiser.
“It is a direct and intentional effort to create gender confusion and doubt among very young children at the very time they need solid guidance and understanding. The intent is to plant a seed to make children more likely to question their sexuality or gender at a later age.”
The facts are that legal requirement of checking the background of adults who teach or work at the schools in any fashion is not being done by many U.S. school and library officials who are either too lazy, negligent or complicit in allowing these sexual predators to have access to our children.
The facts are that every state in the nation has enacted laws requiring K–12 educators to have criminal background checks (Barstow, Terrazas, and Todd 2012).
For example, the Texas legislature passed Senate Bill 9 in 2007, which requires public and private schools to conduct fingerprint-based criminal background checks on applicants such as certified teachers, substitute teachers and teachers’ aides, whether or not certified, volunteers, contractors who will have direct contact with students and noncertified employees.
Texas prohibits employers from hiring teachers and other employees who will have contact with children with misdemeanor or felony convictions for crimes of moral turpitude and misdemeanor or felony convictions for crimes involving minor victims, including sexual offenses or abuse.
It also mandates that any contractors that contract with schools must secure fingerprint background checks on any employees who will interact with students while contracting for work with schools.
WHO IS ALLOWING THESE DRAG QUEENS AND CONVICTED CHILD SEX PREDATORS IN OUR LIBRARIES AND SCHOOLS
Surprisingly and to the alarm of thousands of concerned parents across the U.S., these Drag Queen Story Hour (DQSH) events have been sanctioned and funded by organizations like the American Library Association (ALA) to explicitly allow drag queen performers to read children’s books at public libraries and bookshops to young audiences and their families featuring LGBTQ+ characters.
The drag queens are trained by children’s librarians on how to read books, sing songs, and teach kids crafts typically targeting younger children aged between 3 and 11.
The organization that hosts these events is called DQSH and is a non-profit that is being funded by taxpayer dollars. One of the co-founders of the New York chapter said in June 2019 that the DQSH has 35 U.S. and five international chapters. He said the program strives to “instill the imagination and play of gender fluidity of childhood and gives kids glamorous, positive, and unabashedly queer role models”.
Drag Queen Story Hour pitches itself as a family-friendly event to promote reading, tolerance, and inclusion. “In spaces like this,” the organization’s website reads, “kids are able to see people who defy rigid gender restrictions and imagine a world where everyone can be their authentic selves.” But many parents, even if reluctant to say it publicly, have an instinctual distrust of adult men in women’s clothing dancing and exploring sexual themes with their children.
According to author Christopher F Ruffo, this is the new sexual politics and it is nothing but the “destruction of sex, the reconstruction of child sexuality, and the subversion of middle-class family life. Ruffo wrote:
“The drag queen might appear as a comic figure, but he carries an utterly serious message: the deconstruction of sex, the reconstruction of child sexuality, and the subversion of middle-class family life. The ideology that drives this movement was born in the sex dungeons of San Francisco and incubated in the academy.
It is now being transmitted, with official state support, in a number of public libraries and schools across the United States. By excavating the foundations of this ideology and sifting through the literature of its activists, parents and citizens can finally understand the new sexual politics and formulate a strategy for resisting it,” Ruffo said.
One of the main people who has spearheaded this movement and sits on the board of Drag Queen Story Hour is a college professor and drag queen named Harris Kornstein—stage name Lil Miss Hot Mess.
He is the author of the LGBTQ+ children’s book The Hips on the Drag Queen Go Swish, Swish, Swish. Kornstein also penned the Drag Queen Story Hour manifesto, “Drag Pedagogy: The Playful Practice of Queer Imagination in Early Childhood,” with coauthor Harper Keenan, a female-to-male transgender queer theorist at the University of British Columbia.
As the authors, Kornstein and Keenan explain that the manifesto sets forth LGBTQ+ ideologies in order to disrupt the traditional family and traditional American schooling.
Chritsian Ruffo said that they will accomplish this by teaching a new method, “drag pedagogy,” to stimulate the “queer imagination,” by teaching young kids “how to live queerly,” and “bringing queer ways of knowing and being into the education of young children.”
As Chritsian Ruffo points out, Kornstein and Keenan clearly state that their main goal is toward undermining traditional notions of sexuality, replacing the biological family with the ideological family, and arousing transgressive sexual desires in young children. They wrote:
“Building in part from queer theory and trans studies, queer and trans pedagogies seek to actively destabilize the normative function of schooling through transformative education,” they said. “This is a fundamentally different orientation than movements towards the inclusion or assimilation of LGBT people into the existing structures of school and society.”
According to Swarthmore College, “Kornstein’s goal is to bring drag into the classroom at a Swarthmore-like institution where he could work in a hybrid mode of performance and theory. Starting with story hour, though, has been fiercely rewarding.”
“I have the kids repeat, ‘When I grow up, I want to be a drag queen!’” he says. “I tell them to say that whenever unsuspecting adults ask them what they want to be.
“It’s always a cute moment that plays on the unfounded fears many people have about queers converting children—and that’s exactly why I like it.”
Is this a good thing to allow drag queens to teach LGBTQ+ ideologies to our children and are organizations like the American Library Association (ALA) placing our children at risk of rape by sexual predators who wish to groom our children?
In my opinion, this is a terrible idea and the facts and bad press already prove that there are many people in this movement who are sexual criminals posturing under the guise of social justice and neoliberal ideologies in order to get access to our children’s minds and bodies.
The facts speak for themselves no matter what the “drag queens” and government officials wish to claim.
Again, in 2019, At a drag queen story hour at Hennepin County Library in Hennepin County, Minnesota, a performer by the name “Sasha Sosa,” flashed his crotch to young kids at the audience during the event.
Sosa’s colleague, who performs under the pseudonym “Gemini Valentine” appears to take the floor wearing a revealing leotard.
The CPL discovered that both performers–Sosa and Valentine–regularly perform at strip clubs and are both believed to be in their late teens.
The taxpayer funded Hennepin County Library reportedly failed to carry out a background check on these performers before the event.
In March 2021, the former head of the Cream City Foundation, which sponsors Drag Queen Story Hour in Milwaukee, was arrested on child pornography charges.
Again, that same year, but this time in Pennsylvania, a drag queen, Brice Patric Ryschon Williams, “genderqueer social worker” and a popular LGBT activist who has danced provocatively for young kids was arrested for 25 counts of child pornography.
After tipsters from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children found 76 files in May 2021 with child pornography had been put in a Dropbox account under Williams’ drag queen name, “Anastasia Diamond,” they alerted the Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General’s Child Predator Section. Based on the evidence, his home was then raided by the FBI on June 23.
Williams is a licensed social worker with a Master’s Degree in Social Work from Shippensburg University and also serves as a board member of the Franklin County Coalition for Progress, the Pride Franklin County Committee, and the United Way of Chambersburg’s Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity Committee, and currently works for GLO Harrisburg, a center that offers a “safe space” for LGBTQ+ youth of color.
On Williams Instagram account “bricie95” which has since been deactivated, he describes himself as an “HIV Community Educator” and “Licensed Masters Level Social Worker” using both he/him and she/her pronouns.
According to FBI agents, the email address associated with the account was listed as belonging to Anastasia Diamond, or Ana D. Inspection of the files determined that at least 49 of the 76 files appear to depict children under the age of 18 performing sexual acts. After a preliminary search of the IP address determined to be William’s Comcast internet account, a subpoena was issued to the ISP.
When the FBI raided his home, they found the defendant’s phone with at least 25 videos of child pornography, and more on his old phone. Special Agent Nye stated in the report that the 25 videos were just a small sample of the number of sexually explicit files on Williams’ phone.
According to the police report, FBI Special Agent Nye confronted Williams after finding his devices with child porn and he then admitted that he had searched for, possessed, and shared child pornography.
He then told police that he first saw child pornography in 2014 on a messaging app and that he eventually started uploading the files to cloud storage apps to send and receive more files and links with other people online.
Brice Patric Ryschon Williams pleaded not guilty and is being held on $100,000 bail at Franklin County Corrections.
These child grooming events are not just for schools and our libraries, at Allendale United Methodist Church in St. Petersburg, Florida on Sunday, October 2, 2022, drag queen bible story hour was taught to young children like how drag queen ideology aligns with the Bible, according to Life Site News.
The senior pastor Andy Oliver dressed in pink asked all the children in attendance to come up to the stage, where he asked Simmons several questions about himself and his aspirations to ministry.
The drag queen, Isaac Simmons, aka “Penny Cost,” was dressed like a demon and used “they” and “them” pronouns and “she” and “her” pronouns while speaking in drag about deconstructing and reimagining the church.
Oliver told the children about how the drag queen, Penny Cost, reminds us that we follow God who calls us to not conform to the things of this world. He said that:
“We’re supposed to be transformed by the renewal of our minds and that means what I think today may have to change tomorrow and if I continue to renew my mind and it so cool that we serve a God that calls us to continue to grow and to continue to change into something new and to not be bound by the ways that the world confines us sometimes.”
He concluded, “That were supposed to live differently!” And then asked the kids to pray with them.
Here is the video of the event.
Simmons said:
“We are here to learn and to grow and to deconstruct and to reimagine what church can be, who church can be for, and how church can feel together. The church can be a place unafraid to denounce queerphobia, a place unafraid to name the sin of racism, and to call for an end to white supremacy.
A place where all have equal and equitable access not just to the pulpit itself, to the sanctuary, but to God themselves, and all that it represents within the community.”
WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE DRAG QUEEN STORY HOUR?
Some neolibearl parents have expressed support for the Drag Queen Story Hour claiming that it creates an all inclusive educational environment, stressing the tolerance towards those with unorthodox identities.
There are many people and concerned parents who have been critical of these events considering the facts that they promote a homosexual and transexual lifestyle that is opposed to traditional family values.
Regardless of what the drag queens and government officials try to claim, a new poll by Rassmussen found that 44% of Americans believe that these drag queen story hours were “not at all” appropriate for children, and another 16% stated it to be “not very” appropriate, while 10% said they were not sure.
According to Rasmussen’s head pollster, Mark Mitchell, this question alone had “riled up about the most hate in any survey” he had ever conducted, emphasizing the fury among Americans the issue has caused in recent years.
Only 11% of respondents thought they were “very appropriate” for children, while 28% claimed that they were “somewhat appropriate.”
In regards to political affiliations, 79% of Republicans disapproved of Drag Queen Story Hours, while 47% of Democrats were in support and 41% against the events.
71% said the event should not be taxpayer funded in comparison to just 14% who said the taxpayer should foot the bill.
There is a big gap in beliefs between age groups with 46% of people aged 19-39 saying it was appropriate, compared to 71% of adults aged 40-64 and 77% of adults over 65 who stated that the event was inappropriate.
Slightly more women than men approved of the drag queen story hours, and to no surprise, government employees were the most likely to approve.
However, regardless of what anyone thinks is right, the American Library Association (ALA) and many public school officials have voted to move full steam ahead with their LGBTQ+ child grooming agenda regardless of what your values are for your children and how you believe they should be raised.
According to the Queens Public Library President and CEO Dennis Walcott:
“It is a pleasure for Queens Public Library to welcome Angel Elektra back to our Jackson Heights branch to capture the imaginations of children and adults through an amazing storytelling experience.”
The Queens diustrict approved a budget of $25,000 set aside for “Drag Queen Story Hour programming.”
City Councilman Jimmy Van Bramer (D-Queens), chair of the Cultural Affairs and Libraries Committee, said the funding increase will ensure that even more New Yorkers can enjoy the diverse programming offered by public libraries.
“I am especially proud to support Drag Queen Story Hour, a wonderfully imaginative and inclusive program for kids that encourages acceptance and a love of reading,” Van Bramer said. “Drag Queen Story Hour provides all kids with a space to be themselves and to see queer role models — something I desperately needed as a kid.”
In August 2019, a petition by LifeSiteNews and Personhood Alliance, both anti-abortion activism groups, asked the American Library Association (ALA) to stop promoting the story hours; it gathered nearly 100,000 signatures.
The ALA responded by affirming that it “strongly opposes any effort to limit access to information, ideas and programmes that patrons wish to explore” and “includes a commitment to combating marginalisation and underrepresentation within the communities served by libraries through increased understanding of the effects of historical exclusion.”
CONCLUSION
As a father of four young children at home, I was absolutely appalled to learn that school and library officials were allowing drag queens to read LGBTQ+ books to kids in libraries, schools, and bookstores. I then discovered thousands of other parents and people who were equally offended.
While these drag queens’ words and motives may seem altruistic on the surface to some people, there appears to be a sinister agenda behind it and also a high number of convicted child sex officers and rapists among their ranks.
These same people want to shape and mold your children’s minds to groom them into their ideologies while simultaneously destroying the traditional family and traditional schooling.
It has now become one of the major ideological wars being fought between the neoliberals on the far Left and traditional Liberals and conservatives on the Right who have decided that they have had enough of these child abusers who have stepped over the line.
It’s no secret that many Americans, both Democrat and Republican are now vehemently opposed to the drag queen story hours now that it has been shown that the movement has been infiltrated and exploited by sexual predators and pedophiles to not only get closer to kids, but to groom them for sexual perversions by molding their young brains into a “Satanic State of Mind.”

In the 1970s and 1980s, a phenomenon known as the “Satanic Panic” swept through America.
This was a time when many people believed that Satanists were trying to take over the world.
There were rumors of cults sacrificing children and drinking their blood. Many people became convinced that satanism was a real threat, and they were terrified of what might happen next and others thought it was lunacy fueled by religious zealots.
One thing is for sure, it’s a period of history that is often misunderstood.
It was a time when people believed that Satanists were conducting rituals and sacrificing children all across the country. This religious fear was stoked by serial killers such as the Son of Sam and Richard Ramirez who openly professed they were Satanists who sacrificed their victims to Satan.
This is where the true Satanic Panic originated and it spread from here like hell fire.
It was events like that of Ramirez flashing an upside down pentagram on his hand at his murder trials that helped fuel the fear of the American nation.
This is why when the words Satan and serial killer are used together, it strikes fear deep into the hearts of most good people and especially devout Christians who are taught to fear and fight Satan.
Parents and religious leaders were convinced that a satanic cult was targeting children, and they did everything they could to protect their kids. There were even allegations of Satanic cults infiltrating daycares and schools such as the McMartin preschool, which led to a number of high-profile criminal cases across the country.
Parents became terrified of what their children might be exposed to, and many began to homeschool their kids or take them out of public schools altogether.
This was also the time when Satanism, the devil and the occult became deeply embedded into the minds of Americans and pop culture. Movies like the Exorcist, role-playing game Dungeons and Dragons debuted in 1974, scandalizing pastors and giving parents nightmares of their children falling under demonic spells.
A 1988 documentary about Satanism and ritual abuse by Geraldo Rivera called Devil Worship: Exposing Satan’s Underground became the highest-rated televised documentary to air up to that point. The documentary further fueled the worries of concerned parents and Christians across the nation.
This hysteria led to some pretty bizarre incidents, and a fierce cultural debate in the media and even congressional legislation was put forth to make Satanism illegal.
All the while, Satanists like The Church of Satan capitalized upon “some of these allegations,” by focusing ONLY on criminal cases where the defendants were found not guilty.
By doing this, they could divert the attention of an uneducated media and concerened American citizens to the Satanic crimes that were proven to be false, while completely ignoring the true stories.
It didn’t help that some ridiculous conspiracy theories helped bolster the Satanic Panic cause.
For example, in 1978, a conspiracy theory claiming that McDonald’s was secretly funding satanic enterprises gained so much popularity that the company had to release an official statement denying it. The founder, Ray Kroc had to reassure frightened customers by telling them that he was “a God-fearing, God-loving man.”
In the memoir, Michelle Smith, Michelle Remembers, introduced readers everywhere to satanic ritual abuse in a story about being caged, tortured, and sexually molested by members of a satanic cult. The story and the author were eventually debunked.
It is cases like there that became the focus by Satanists on the “false allegations” and “uneducated religious zealots” became the perfect calling card for the “Satanic Panic” and their main defense strategy that they still employ to this very day.
By doing so, they could claim that these were ALL false allegations made by crazy Christians causing social hysteria fueled by fearful media depictions of godless teenagers listening to deviant music and wearing heavy metal t-shirts.
Over thousands of years, magicians have developed the ability to control attention, to distort perception, and to influence choice. This is done in advertising and marketing by corporations who use false images and deception to influence our decisions.
The fear of a Satanic Panic eventually faded from the American collective consciousness, thanks in part to a public relations campaign conducted by the Church of Satan.
I contend that one of the main reasons the hysteria died out was because the founder of the Church of Satan, Anton Lavey, and his High Priest, Peter Gilmore, stepped into action to combat the negative publicity with their own PR campaign.
According to Peter Gilmore, he spent many hours combatting their foes and educating the public about Satanic philosophy. Gilmore said:
“The Satanic Panic” (80s-90s) there was proposed congressional legislation to make Satanism illegal. During that time Anton Szandor LaVey, the founder of the Church of Satan, had encouraged me as a spokesperson for the organization and the means for combatting this proposal was to educate people about what Satanism really was, rather than the, then current, fantasy of Devil worship, child abuse and sacrifice promulgated by evangelical Christians and gullible journalists.
Lavey did not have the Church of Satan issue statements rallying its members to sally forth. Instead, he felt that fulfilling the purpose of the Church of Satan—educating others as to what it represents—would serve to dissolve the false definition of Satanism fueling that proposed law. And so it did and I spent many hours accurately representing the reality of our philosophy in all forms of the media to that end.”
But several prominent authors and scholars who are not part of some Satanic sect or get paid to be a Satanist like Peter Gilmore would disagree with the Church of Satans and other people who claim that the Satanic Panic was the purely result of false allegations, religious fantasy, and irrational beliefs.
Sure, there was definitely a lot of that going on but there were also a lot of true stories that were being swept to the side or ignored all together.
In the midst of the Satanic Panic, author and Professor of Philosophy of Religion at the University of Denver, Carl Raschke was asked by his publisher to research and write a book about Satanism. What Raschke discovered was that there was in fact credible evidence and a plethora of stories to support the narrative that Satanists were committing murders and other criminal acts.
Raschke’s book is really more about mind control and how during the 1960’s, various occultists like Anton Lavey tried to overturn mainstream religious and political beliefs. America’s youth and young adults were being manipulated by Satanists who were putting their message out through the media with art, books, music, movies, and drugs and free sex.
As Raschke eloquently points out, the 60’s was a time in our country when it was encouraged for both the father and the mother to work outside the home leaving a whole generation of kids at home alone.
This phenomenon created a new psychological term to describe their abandonment called latchkey kids – school age children of working parents who must spend part or most of the day unsupervised (as at home),
The kids of this generation had a vacuum to be filled that was once their parents, and Satanism would happily take their place.
Out of these abandoned kids, there were children who had been physically and sexually abused, rejected by parents and were never taught any moral values.
These kids would be on the fringes of society. They were angry and needed an outlet for their hate for the world and the violence they wanted to unleash upon it.
This is why Satanism and the neoliberal lifestyle of extreme freedoms, drugs, sex, music and media that came with it would be the perfect home for these wayward youth.
The kids thought that Satanism was going to lead to power, wealth, fame, and anything else that their little hearts desired. But once they got addicted to the lifestyle and vices of drugs and sex, they became under the mind control of their very Satanic doctrines they foolishly thought would be the answer to all their problems.
This can be seen time and time again by many people who take this path. A Satanic road that is littered with lost souls and ruined lives everywhere you look.
From drug addicted gurus like Aleister Crowley who died penniless and addicted to heroin to Ozzy Ozzborne’s open display of decades of hedonism, family turmoil and constant drug use and Church of Satan members like Marilyn Manson who in recent years has been accused of a long list of crimes.
As Raschke notes, there is no dabbling in the occult because depravity and bondage quickly develop.
Satan may promise much, but never delivers.
In 2021, I interviewed Carl Raschke and asked him about the Satanic Panic and his book. He believes to this day that there was a massive PR campaign to sanitize the bad press and he actually became a target of Satanic propagandists.
Raschke said:
“There was a whole PR campaign to try to sanitize what was happening and I was the target. A lot of these groups had the kind of intellectual authority. Satanism was not my thing. I knew a lot about it. I’d heard a lot about it on the ground.
The narrative, let’s call it, the PR campaign, was actually pushed by less than reputable academics who were just kind of in it to protect themselves and to protect their research clients.
I’m not saying there was necessarily a thing corrupt about it though. There have been rumors that it’s kind of like the tobacco industry.
How they tried to tell you in the early days that tobacco is not as harmful as they got their authorities together and they created this narrative,” Raschke emphasized.
He said, “That Satanism was a panic, based on the idea of a moral panic, that term was posed by a guy. I can’t remember his name, but it was called satanic panic.
It came out in the nineties and it was a sociological term that basically tried to look at the whole phenomenon as if it were just a bunch of spooked out people who didn’t really understand what was going on, who were panicking.
That’s totally false because the thing emerged kind of organically and slowly.
There must be this pure thing, purity you call Satanism, which is being slandered and abused and blah, blah, blah. And you know, so the whole thing was literally a shit show.
I got caught up in the middle of that and the book I didn’t expect that I was just trying to honestly write from the notes and the interviews and the stuff I read,” Raschke noted.
Similar to what Carl Rashke found, I also discovered the facts that people have been murdering people all across the U.S. for several decades that claimed to be either Satanists, demon possessed or did so under the orders of Satan or the Devil.
To a person outside the occult world of black magic and Satanism, they might ignorantly think that these stories are just crazy journalism and part of some type of Satanic Panic propaganda. But they could not be more wrong.
It is important to note that the people who commit serious crimes they claim their allegiance to Satanism are just a tiny fraction of the Satanic movement as a whole. But due to the serious nature of the crimes that some of these people commit, to say it is not a problem or factor is simply a lie.
I have found that both the Church of Satan and the Satanic Temple have made these public statements about the ordeal,
The Church of Satan has stated;
As Satanism is a recognized “New Religious Movement,” it’s important for an understanding of what is and what is not Satanism to be maintained. “The Satanic Panic” in the 1980s-90s is evidence of a willful distortion of this religion as the concept of a conspiracy of murderous “satanists” was promoted primarily by evangelical Christians and taken-up by the media worldwide.
Law enforcement debunked the claims of the evangelists but not before many people had become victims of false accusations of ritual child abuse, sacrifice, and kidnapping.
Some Christians—despite the five decades of a clearly defined belief system called Satanism expounded by a worldwide organization—still use this term to reference any acts or beliefs they consider to be “evil” or simply contrary to their own beliefs.
Ill-informed members of law enforcement agencies and journalists, often believers in some form of Christianity, also continue to misrepresent the religion of Satanism.
If the definition of Satanism is not kept clear, any unstable or insane person working from a Christian context could claim their actions were due to self-termed “satanic beliefs,” thus criminally implicating actual open adherents of Satanism to the public at large, people who are not generally familiar with the beliefs and tenets of religious Satanism.
The recent case of murderer Amanda Barbour, who along with her boyfriend murdered one person but claimed to have murdered many others as part of an interstate “satanic cult,” is another example.
The Church of Satan works publicly to maintain a clear understanding of the atheist, individualistic, and law-abiding nature of Satanism and regularly consults with law enforcement as well as journalistic researchers and academicians to this end.”
It appears that the Church of Satan is making a valid claim that these killers are just lunatics and even though they may be “affiliatd with some form of Satanism,” in no way is this some vast conspiracy of an organized Satanic cult. The reason I say that is valid is because I agree with them on this point.
What I do not agree with is the entire claim that these killers are in their words “any unstable or insane person working from a Christian context could claim their actions were due to self-termed satanic beliefs.”
While I agree with the truth that these people are unstable and or insane, the reason I don’t entirely agree is because there are many different sects of Satanism and also personal Satanic beliefs. People will kill innocent people and abuse babies in the name of Satan and or no God regardless of what anyone says or what press release is issued.
The Satanic Temple claims that the Satanic Panic was mainly about Satanic Ritual Child Abuse such as the McMartin Preschool Trials, which occurred a few years later during the late 1980s.
Here is their general statement on Satanic Panic;
“We then see an unconvincing attempt to justify this petty and undignified public temper tantrum with the claim that “it’s important for an understanding of what is and what is not Satanism to be maintained.
“The Satanic Panic” in the 1980s-90s is evidence of a willful distortion of this religion as the concept of a conspiracy of murderous ‘satanists’ was promoted primarily by evangelical Christians and taken-up by the media worldwide. Law enforcement debunked the claims of the evangelists but not before many people had become victims of false accusations of ritual child abuse, sacrifice, and kidnapping.”
Apparently, this “understanding” can only be gained by dogged insistence that only the website of the CoS defines Satanism. This is particularly infuriating as TST, unlike the CoS, has been actively fighting against the Satanic Panic which still exists, nor is it “promoted primarily by evangelical Christians.”
One need only look at our Grey Faction campaign to recognize that actively fighting back against anti-Satanist propagandists is one of the primary functions of TST.”
On the Satanic Temple’s website via their Grey Faction initiative, they state one of its main purposes is to “document, expose, and aggressively seek to bring to an end pseudoscientific mental health care practices that contribute to harmful conspiracist Satanic Panic delusions.”
I agree that pseudoscientific mental health care practices should be exposed and put an end to, but the facts are that this is just the small tip of the Satanic Panic iceberg. While there is definitely some validity to these claims by the Satanic Temple, it is only one of the reasons for the Satanic Panic.
In our present culture, religious Satanism exists primarily as a decentralized subculture. It does not appear to be an organized front on the surface but I contend that Satanists are united by their ideologies and thus united by an inherently “selfish and evil state of mind” that often (not always) leads to the practitioners unhappiness, destruction, and sometimes death.
What I’m simply claiming is what they are failing to address are the various crimes and murders that have been committed over the last five decades by people who claim to be aligned and or influenced by Satanism in some fashion.
With that said, let me state again that not all Satanists are evil, child abusers, and or criminals.
The facts are that 99% of the Satanists in the modern world are people just like you and me but who have chosen the Satanic lifestyle i.e.: individualistic, carnal, selfish, and materialistic life over the spiritual as their chief aim. You will find a hell of a lot of good people in this movement and the vast majority are certainly not all evil child abusers and or killers of innocent people for Satanic sport.
In fact, many of the people who I might call “good Satanists” would enjoy nothing more than killing the evil Satanists like child abusers and killers for sport. I have seen it happen in prison and it happens all the time behind bars.
The reality is that to the average person and even the hardened criminal, it is unthinkable how any one person could become so diabolical and evil that a good night for them is to go hunt for little children or women to abuse, rape, torture, and kill for sport.
Many people would say they are not human. Religionists may call them Demons. Like the Christian Scripture says, “My name is Legion, for we are many.”
Please keep in mind that when I use the words demons, Satan, and the devil when speaking about some of these brutal killers, these names are not something I dreamt of for a script or religious sensationalism.
No, these are the actual words used by many of the Satanists and murderers themselves after they are caught.
In no particular order, I would like to give you some real-world examples of cold-blooded killers who have said they worship Satan and or were Satanists.
It is important that you understand that the stories I present are just a small example of the number of cases that I could have reported on. This could be a book spanning several volumes.
But my goal is not to list every crime or murder committed by a Satanist. It is to prove a point that it does happen and that a Satanic State of Mind may not only lead someone to self destruction, it can also result in murder.
You will find that each killer who was involved in Satanism were in every single case young men and women who had terrible childhoods and were abused
They found that Satanism was the perfect ideology to not only accept their damaged and rebellious souls, it was the ideal philosophy to unleash their internalized rage against a society who had abandoned them.

In 1993, three innocent young kids were found raped, naked, and murdered in the mud of local woodland at Robin Hood Hills in West Memphis, Arkansas.
They were all American boys – 8-year-old Michael Moore, Steven Branch, and Christopher Byers. All proud members of the Boy Scouts with the world ahead of them but their lives were cut short in the most horrible way that anyone could ever imagine.
After getting together to go play and have fun in the local woods, the boys were instead abducted, tied up, beaten, raped, tortured, and then killed in what can be described as a “Satanic ritual sacrifice.”
“The state of the boys’ bodies quickly inspired rumors that a satanic cult was responsible. The crime scene’s location in the woods, the nudity, the positioning of the boys’ bodies, and especially the castration caused concern about Satanism amongst the locals, and amongst the police as well.
Within days of the murders, Gary Gitchell, the chief inspector, informed the public that the police were considering a number of possible explanations for the murders, one of which was cult activity.
Throughout the investigation, the cult theory overshadowed more traditional theories, such as the speculation that the murders were committed by someone who knew the boys.”
At the time of the killings, a local teenager from a nearby trailer park named Damien Echols quickly became a prime suspect. The main reason why police zeroed in on Echols was his criminal record, extensive mental health history, and his interest in the occult.
You see, Echols was a felon and his probation officer who knew his dark history had alerted homicide detectives about his tendency for violence, and his involvement in Satanism, black magick, and the fact that he had threatened to murder people in the past – including his own step mother.
Echols was not your average heavy metal tshirt wearing teenager.
He was a Satanist who was a convicted criminal who had a long history of dark occult and blood ritualistic behavior.
According to police and mental health records, Damien Echols had made a pact with his girlfriend to sacrifice their first born baby in a death ritual and that he liked to drink human blood as well.
When he was arrested, police investigators discovered a plethora of evidence of Echols occult and Satanic activities with various writings, drawings, and his own and other people’s damning statements.
For example, Echols had a ringed binder in his possession at his home that he made called the “Book of Shadows” with Satanic drawings such as these:
As I mentioned, there has been a lot written about the case from both perspectives so I won’t go into too much detail here other than summarizing the key points that I believe are the most important to prove that Damien Echols was and is a Satanist on the fringe.
It is important to note that one of the main suspects, Jessie Misskelley had confessed not once, not twice, but several times to law enforcement and he even placed his right hand on the bible admitting the killings. Later he would also confess to his lawyer. Hell, even his own father and family believed he was guilty.
The police then investigated into his background and what he was doing on the night of the murders. An eyewitness had seen Echols with another person in the very same neighborhood the boys were found dead covered in mud.
Damien along with two of his friends, Jason Baldwin, and Jessie Misskelley, were then questioned and arrested for the crimes and they would forever be known in Cult murder lore as “The West Memphis Three (3).”
Misskelley had quickly confessed to detectives about his involvement giving them intimate details of the crime scene such as being hogtied and having chased down one of the boys who almost got away, and he also implicated Baldwin and Echols as his accomplices.
He had told investigators;
“Then they tied them up, tied their hands up,” parts of which were tape recorded. After describing sodomizing and other violence, he went on: “And I saw it and turned around and looked, and then I took off running. I went home, then they called me and asked me, ‘How come I didn’t stay? I told them, I just couldn’t.’”
Misskelley later recanted, and defense lawyers said the then-17-year-old got several parts of the story wrong.
But that was not the only evidence and there were also other statements made to police that prove that The West Memphis 3 were violent teens who also practiced Satanic rituals.
For example, one of Jessee Miskelleys’ friends, Dennis Carter was interviewed by Lt. D. Hester at the request of Dennis Carter 6/9/93 completed @ 2:45 – 4:15 p.m.
According to the police report, Carter told police that he has known and been friends with Misskelley all of his life.
The last time he saw Jesse was the day before he was arrested. He claimed that he did not know Damien or Jason. However, he knew who they were but was not friends with either of them.
One of their mutual friends, Rick told Dennis about some Devil worshipers that would meet in a place called Stone Henge in the woods where they would cut a dog’s head off and would eat the meat from the leg. Rick said that Damien was the leader.
Dennis told investigators that about 6 months prior, Jesse told him that Damien was a Devil worshiper and that he ate the right leg of dogs and said that this happened in the woods located behind Elite lamp.
He also said to the police that Jesse liked to fight and a lot of times he would even start it. About 2 months prior to the crimes, Jesse was fighting a boy named Eric in Lakeshore when this girl named Tiffany (13) Eric’s girlfriend — went over to try and stop him — states Jesse turned around and hit her as hard as he could in the ear with his fist. Dennis stated that Jesse had to go to Juvenile Court over that.
Dennis said there was a little girl in the mobile home park who was 5 or 6 yrs old who was throwing rocks — one accidentally hit Jesse — Jesse chased the little girl and threw a rock and hit her in the head. The little girl was crying and Jesse was laughing.
He also stated to police that Jesse drank a lot and smoked pot when he could get it — thinks the guys name is Josh 17 yrs old and lives in Highland Trailer Park. States that he also saw Jesse sniffing gas about 20 times. Also saw Jesse take mini thins — bought them at Delta in Marion — got high from those.”
Damien Echols would fail a polygraph test and his alibis would be ripped to shreds. He even admitted on the stand that his timeline kept changing to try to fit the facts.
We know that after a short trial, the jury convicted the three teenagers of the crimes in 1994 based on the evidence put forth by the prosecution with the most damning being the actual confessions from two of the killers.
In upholding Echols’ conviction in 1996, the state Supreme Court noted that two people testified Echols bragged about the killings, an eyewitness put Echols at the scene, fibers similar to the boys’ clothing were found in Echols’ home, a knife was found in a pond behind Baldwin’s home, Echols’ interest in the occult and his telling police that he understood the boys had been mutilated before officers had released such details.
Since the deaths of the three boys, there have been countless articles, books, and even Hollywood films detailing some of the facts about the case and legal battles. What I have found in my own research is that there are two different camps of people who have taken opposite sides on this matter.
One camp still adamantly believes that Damien Echols and his accomplices are guilty and the other camp believes that they were innocent teens who were wrongly convicted simply because they loved heavy metal and wore Metallica t-shirts.
The camp who believes he is guilty is still very active online. Many people have started personal websites, wrote books, and have active Facebook Groups where they are still covering this case and keeping a watchful eye on who Echols who they feel is a serious threat to society.
The other camp who professes his innocence rely on the simple defense asserting that the killings were part of a Satanic Panic by over zealous Christians and Prosecuters, inspired many authors and film makers to document the case, and led to a movement of powerful people and Hollywood stars who believed that the Memphis 3 had been wrongly convicted.
These people with the help of Hollywood star power and millions of dollars would end up helping the three convicts released from prison. Their supporters would include, “Lord of the Rings” director, Peter Jackson, who donated millions of dollars and “actors” like Johnny Depp, Natlie Maines of the “Dixie Chicks,” and Eddie Vedder of “Pearl Jam.”
It has been estimated that they contributed approximately $20 million to help defend the convicted child killers by dragging out the appeals process, which eventually would secure their release from prison in 2011.
One of the main reasons I feel compelled to report on this case is because Damien Echols is now openly claiming to be a Satanist who used black magick and what he had coined as ‘High Magick” to get off Death Row for the murders of 3 innocent boys.
Also, the fact that the West Memphis Three had received millions of dollars for their defense fund from a bunch of celebrities and got a lot of media attention from Hollywood.
All because some people had characterized their prosecution as the result of a Satanic Panic and overzealous law enforcement who busted three local teens just because they were into heavy metal and wore Metallica t-shirts.
On August 19, 2011, after serving 18 years of Death Row, the convicted child killers – Echols and his co-defendants in the case, Jason Baldwin and Jessie Misskelley Jr., entered Alford pleas. An Alford plea is a no contest plea where the accused claims their innocence, but pleads guilty anyway to get a deal offered by prosecutors instead of risking a trial.
During the hearings, after years of investigation and millions of dollars spent by the Memphis 3, the defense attorneys, nor the defendants did not present any exonerating evidence to prove their innocence during the Alford Plea hearings.
Despite there being no evidence proving their innocence, the three men admitted their guilt in the crimes, Arkansas Judge David Laser accepted the pleas and released the men for time served with 10-year suspended sentences.
But the facts are that there is more to the story than Hollywood and the West Memphis 3 would like you to falsely believe. This story of child rape, torture, and murder and celebrities raising millions to release three convicted criminals is a perfect example of why I believe that the U.S. has devolved from our original ethos of Brothery Love and justice and liberty for all into the “Satanic State of America.”
In researching the case, I discovered that this outcast rage would be the main marketing calling card for West Memphis Three and their 3 Hollywood made movies which would convince many people around the world that they were just different – outcasts like you and me.
In fact, this is how they continue to convince people that they are innocent through these films and the many articles written by lazy journalists who consume Echol’s narrative hook, line, and sinker just because they saw the movie or read some article.
What people need to understand about this case are the facts that the people who backed up Damien Echols and the producers who made the films failed to include many facts, details and evidence that would have revealed a much different side of the case than they wanted to portray to their audience.
An audience they knew most likely would not do their own research so they included only the facts they wanted to put in the film to control the narrative in order to gain support and money for Echols’ cause.
And you know what?
Almost every person I have researched who believes the West Memphis Three are innocent based their beliefs mainly from watching the Damien Echols directed movies. Including one of his biggest supporters and who he calls his Brother, Johnny Depp.
They even have matching secret demon and talisman tattoos on their chests to signify their occult bonds.
Marilyn Manson calls them “The West Hollywood Three” which is a pun on the name West Memphis Three. A name that was given to Echols and his two convicted child pals in the rape and torture of 3 boys in Memphis, Tennessee.
“The man Johnny Depp helped release from Arkansas’ death row has become like a brother to him, right down to getting matching tattoos.
“We have some,” Depp said Saturday as he touched a tattoo on the right side of his chest.
“This one Damien designed. It’s one of my all-time favorites, and it means quite a lot to me,” Depp told The Associated Press before the premiere of the documentary, “West of Memphis,” about Damien Echols and his two co-defendants.
Echols said whenever he and Depp get together, they often end up in a tattoo parlor. Depp said it’s about “celebrating the moment.”
A fact that you need to know is that Damien Echols was the executive director of the films which played a huge part in securing his release.
This meant that he had the final say in what information will be presented in the film and what they will not be shown to the public.
When I discovered that Echols was the executive director, I immediately thought “How many convicts would love to receive millions of dollars for their defense and to direct a movie to secure their release telling the public about only the details of the crime that they would like them to believe?”
In my opinion, that is a lot of magical power to hand to a convicted child raping killer who is on Death Row. In fact, this has never happened in the history of our justice system.
As the author, Gary Meece points out in his book, Blood on Black: The Case Against the West Memphis 3 Killers, which is unlike the other books and documentaries about these crimes because he actually uses real court case files. Meece wrote:
“The murders were thrill kills, according to Echols himself. But they were much more than that. Police were struck by the ritualistic aspects. Local dabblers in the occult immediately came under suspicion.
Under questioning, Echols, already acknowledged as a witch, flaunted his knowledge of the occult, his theories of how the killings could have “magickal” implications and his insights into how the killer would think and feel.
He demonstrated special knowledge about the case beyond the little publicly known. He gave out signals that he was a prime suspect; a series of witnesses further implicated him. A confession broke open the case.”
All these facts were mysteriously left out of the movie script… I wonder why?
What is also left out of the film is over 500 pages of mental health records saying things like Echols was prone to extreme acts of violence, liked to drink human blood and threatened to kill and eat people like his own father.
These 500 pages are known in the West Memphis Three case filed as “Exhibit 500.”
It includes most of the hospitalization and mental health records of Damien Echols as a teenager while he lived in Arkansas and Oregon and also his application for disability. Yes, he applied for disability due to his inability to function as a normal person due to his severe mental health issues and thus keep a job.
It is a large collection of mental health status records, psychological testing, dozens of damaging notes by mental health doctors and nurses and also includes statements from Jerry Driver, Damien’s parole officer.
Here is a small example of some pertinent facts you should know about Damien Echols before the murders.

Damien Echol’s long history of family dysfunction, mental health issues, violence, and sexual abuse were the main themes that can be found in the Exhibit 500 documents and in later witness statements taken after his arrest.
In these records, Echols had said to various psychiatrists and therapists that he had no feelings for his family and that he hated both his step-father and biological father and that he did not like his sister because “she want(ed) to be like him and that bothers him a lot.”
His mother said Damien’s biological father may have been physically abusive and once threatened to break Damien’s arm. His stepfather was accused of being sexually abusive, and possessive toward his mother, and was “mentally abusive” to his step-children.
An interesting note is that Damien is not his birth name. He was born Michael Wayne Echols and he changed his name as a teenager from Michael to Damien. Damien said both in trial and to a social worker in 1992, that he was the reason behind the name change.
He claimed that he had been interested in Catholicism at the time and admired Father Damien, who tended to lepers on Molokai. But many people allege that he took the name himself after the boy in The Omen who was really a demon.
Damien’s first stay at a mental hospital was at the Charter Hospital in Little Rock after threatening to commit suicide after being arrested for burglary, sexual misconduct, and breaking and entering involving an incident with his then girlfriend and her parents. Damien was sent to the hospital after expressing plans to commit suicide in the detention facility.
From the numerous reports compiled there, we can start to see a more complete version of Damien’s mental health and occult history.
Damien said that he had been suspended from school seven times for setting fires. He also mentioned a fight with a classmate over a girl, where he almost gouged out his eyes. The classmate was questioned and the incident was found to be true. There was a time when Damien chased a child with an axe, but Echols would later deny the event happened.
The hospital staff confirmed that he had a history of physical aggression and felt that his peers at school taunted him. They observed Echols daily, and took a lot of notes referring to him as being “depressed” and “withdrawn”, with a “flat affect”. He told the hospital that he had burned himself with lighters, and huffed gas and paint
Echol’s mother expressed concern to the hospital about her son’s “anger and rage”. His MMPI evaluation (which begins on page 199) also made note of Damien’s apparent “impulsive hostility” and how he may “feel justified in treating others in an unprincipled matter” due to perceived wrongs.
The mental health staff noted that he may have been suffering from paranoia and auditory hallucinations, due to sniffing the air and giving “inappropriate smiles.” The MMPI evaluation diagnosed him with depressive disorder, bipolar, and paranoid schizophrenia. Echols claimed at his trial that he was on medication for manic depressive behavior, though what was prescribed to him (Tofranil) is actually an anti-depressant and is known to make manic behavior worst.
In 1992, while incarcerated at the Craighead County Detention Center in September of 1992, after it was found that he drank the blood that came from a peer, he was transferred to the Charter Hospital of Little Rock for observation.
Details about the incident are contradicted by Echols who claimed that the person had allowed him to suck blood from his neck but the incident report from the Juvenile Detention Center said that Damien had sucked blood from a peer’s arm without warning.
In an interview on September 15, 1992, a social worker claimed that Echols discussed his devil-worshippingiefs in vampirism. The social worker also claimed that Damien was giggling and smiling at inappropriate moments, during this interview.
The initial evaluation also stated that his peers at the detention center were afraid of him and that he showed poor judgment and had little insight into his illness. They also noted that Damien seemed cooperative but drew occult symbols, which concerned them.
In early 1993, Echols attended more counseling when he claimed to his therapist that his “parents were constantly fighting” and that he had “tried to ignore it but eventually started fighting back.”
During the evaluation, he made various disturbing statements that proved that he was a hardcore Satanist who performed blood rituals.
Echols said to the therapist that he wanted to “go where the monsters go when I die” and that he “hated the human race.” He talked often about his beliefs in witchcraft, but claimed that he was not part of a cult. Echols said that he drank blood to feel power, though it had to come from a sexual or ruling partner.
He said that he had a spirit living inside of him and communicated with demons through rituals and admitted that due to his anger, he blew up sometimes and wanted to hurt other people.
Shortly after he was released from the hospital, Echols applied for SSI disability benefits.
As I had mentioned, the West Memphis Three case had got a lot of attention from Hollywood because some people had wrongly characterized their prosecution as the result of a Satanic Panic and overzealous law enforcement who busted Echols and two other teens just because they were into heavy metal and wore Metallica t-shirts.
A movie was made that was funded by people such as Johnny Depp, Eddie Vedder, and Marilyn Manson and directed by Damien Echols himself. In my opinion, that is a lot of magical power and money to hand to a convicted child-raping killing Satanist who is on Death Row.
As you can witness for yourself with the multiple confessions of one of the murderers and the facts documented in Echols mental health records via Exhibit 500, Damien was a hardcore Satanist with a lust for violence and liked to consume human blood.
He was not part of some local cult or organized Satanic sect, but like most people who commit crimes like this, he suffered from family problems, mental health and drug issues. He had a tendency for violence and a taste for human blood.
Fast forward to today and you will find Damien Echols free as a bird and happy as a Satanic clam.
Echols sells books on “High Magick” and demon sigils in his online store that he claims helped him get out of prison and you know what, I believe him 100%.
He is writing books teaching kids and adults on his popular Youtube channel. Dark wisdom that he dispenses to anyone and everyone showing the very magic that he used to escape from Death Row for the rape, torture, and murder of three boys that he “allegedly did not commit.”
In addition to his books, Youtube and Twitter, he also receives thousands of dollars a month on Patreon.
But let me remind you that he and his accomplices pleaded guilty to the crimes on two occasions.
They were never proved to be innocent or exonerated for the rape and murder of the three innocent boys.

In 2019, the evil world began to crumble around one of the most famous R&B singers of all time, R Kelly after several women shared their stories claiming he had sexually assaulted them in a six-part documentary “Surviving R. Kelly.”
The film starts with one of his victims separating the artist R Kelly from his legal name, Robert Kelly. As if he were two different people. She said:
“There’s a difference between R. Kelly and Robert,” she says. “R. Kelly’s this fun, laughing, loving guy. But Robert is the devil.”
Shortly after the news came out, R. Kelly’s manager, Darrell Johnson was confronted by TMZ. He told TMZ: “Mr. Kelly feels like the devil is working overtime in an effort to try to destroy his musical legacy for selfish, personal enrichment.”
After the documentary was released, the singer made reference to Lucifer and the Devil in an interview with CBS anchor, Gayle King. King asked Kelly, “Do you still sit here and say you have never been with underage girls? Can you really say that?”
He responded:
“If you really look at that documentary, which I’m sure you have…everybody says something bad about me. Nobody said nothing good. They were describing Lucifer.
“I’m not Lucifer. I’m a man, I make mistakes, but I’m not a devil. And by no means am I a monster.”
He added: “They [women] are lying on me.”
But the Devil was the least of the singer’s worries.
Legal authorities had charged R Kelly with several crimes including child pornography, kidnapping, obstruction of justice, sex trafficking, and racketeering for purposes of sexual exploitation of children.
Prosecutors said that Kelly led a “criminal enterprise” of managers, bodyguards, and other employees, who assisted the singer to recruit women and underage girls for sex and pornography, and crossing state lines for the purpose of sex trafficking.
And this was not the first time the Grammy-winning artist had faced child pornography charges.
In 2008, R Kelly was found not guilty of 14 counts of child pornography after Chicago prosecutors failed to convince a jury that he was the man seen on a sex tape with a 13-year-old girl.
During the court hearings, it was discovered that he also secretly married the late singer Aaliyah when she was only 15 and he was 27 in 1994.
Prosecutors alleged that Kelly had “sexual contact” with Aaliyah and bribed a government official for a fake ID showing her age as 18. The marriage was annulled soon thereafter.
The prosecutors in the current case were allowed to present evidence to the court that Kelly had “sexual contact” with Aaliyah referred to as “Jane Doe #1” when she was underage.
Prosecutors said she became pregnant, so he secretly arranged a marriage to protect himself from possible criminal charges, because a wife can’t be forced to testify against a husband.
“It’s clearly relevant and it clearly shows a motive for Racketeering Act Number One, so that is admissible,” U.S. District Judge Ann Donnelly ruled.
One of the victims, Faith Rogers said she met the singer after a concert in San Antonio in 2017.
She claimed that Kelly sexually assaulted her in a hotel room two months after their first meeting alleging that it was “non-permissive, painful, and abusive sex” and that afterward, he criticized her for “lack of participation.”
In court documents, she stated: “Defendant, R. Kelly, locked Plaintiff in secluded areas including rooms, studios, and motor vehicles, for extended periods of time in order to punish Plaintiff for failing to please Defendant sexually and/or for perceived offenses and violations of his prescribed code of conduct.”
Rogers also said that he gave her alcohol despite her being underage and infected her with herpes after failing to disclose he had an STD.
In a previous interview with CBS News, she claimed that he told her to call him “Daddy,” and introduced her to one of the five women he was “raising.”
After Rodgers appeared in Surviving R. Kelly documentary, her lawyers claimed Kelly sent a notarized letter to a lawyer representing her, which contained compromising photos of her and said:
“If she persists in court action she will be subjected to public opinion,” and said Kelly would be able to get “10 personal male witnesses testifying about her sex life.”
When R Kelly was confronted by a Federal Grand Jury with the charges, he placed the blame on the Prince of Demons. Kelly told the courts:
“I blame the devil!”
On July 26, 2022, a Brooklyn, New York court found Kelly (55) guilty of all charges sending the disgraced singer to a lengthy prison sentence of 30 years.
R Kelly’s manager, Donell Russell also pleaded guilty to stalking, threatening, harassing, and blackmailing one of the victims in a desperate attempt to save his boss’s career and I’m sure, more importantly, his salary. Russell faces up to 5 years in prison and is awaiting sentencing on November 17, 2022.

The award-winning former war correspondent, Lara Logan was interviewed on October 2022 by Newsmax host Eric Bolling, who anchors a show called “The Balance.” Logan was asked to be interviewed to discuss global elites and their favoritism toward leftist policies.
When Bolling questioned Logan about the situation along the Mexican border with large groups of undocumented migrants crossing into the United States, she went on to describe how the global elites dine on the blood of children and are the servants of Satan.
Logan said;
“God believes in sovereignty, and national identity, and the sanctity of family, and all the things that we’ve lived with from the beginning of time.”
“And he knows that the open border is Satan’s way of taking control of the world through all of these people who are his stooges and his servants.”
She also claimed: “And they may think that they’re going to become gods. That’s what they tell us. You’ve all known [historian Yuval Noah] Harari and all the rest of them at the World Economic Forum.
“You know, the ones who want us eating insects, cockroaches, and that while they dine on the blood of children?”
Logan added: “Those are the people, right? They’re not gonna win. They’re not going to win.”
After the interview, Newsmax and the rest of the liberal media condemned the award-winning journalist.
“Newsmax condemns in the strongest terms the reprehensible statements made by Lara Logan and her views do not reflect our network.”
Before Logan’s appearance on Newsmax, she was a frequent contributor to the Fox News’ streaming service, Fox Nation, but was no longer brought on the show and dropped by her talent agency after a November 2021 appearance on “Fox News Primetime” when she compared Dr. Anthony Fauci to the infamous German Nazi known as the “Angel of Death,” Dr. Josef Mengele.
Logan said;
“This is what people say to me, is that he doesn’t represent science to them — he represents Josef Mengele, the Nazi doctor who did experiments on Jews during the Second World War and in the concentration camps.”
About a week after all the controversy, Lara Logan was interviewed by former Newsmax anchor, Emerald Robinson’s show called The Absolute Truth where Logan doubled down on her accusations against the global elite.
Robinson kicked off the interview by saying, “the truth has been out there for years” to support Logan’s claim that liberal elites feast on children’s blood.
In the interview, Lara Logan said:
“The reason I believe that people reacted that way is it’s all about the children. The question they don’t want us asking is where are all the missing children?”
“What happens to these children? How can hundreds of thousands of kids go missing in the United States every year and nobody knows where they are? They just vanish? I don’t think so,” she said. “Every sex trafficking ring worldwide knows, bring the kids to the United States that this administration is participating in the trafficking of kids!”
She also stated that Child Protective Services was “directly involved” in kidnapping large numbers of young children for the past 20 years and using them in “sex rings,” “snuff videos” and child pornography.
Logan exclaimed:
“This administration is participating in the trafficking of kids! They’re paying companies, LLCs and non-profits, and church groups. They’re paying them to take these kids and disappear them.”
Referencing a news segment that Robinson presented at the beginning of the interview, Logan claimed that the “blood of young children [is] the secret to anti-aging” before asking, “And why does nobody ask, where does the blood come from?”
“How do you get the blood of young children? And does it matter if the children are younger and younger and younger? So now you’re talking about the blood of babies now? Is that what you’re talking about?”
