Belanglo State Forest

Belanglo State Forest is a planted forest in the Australian state of New South Wales; its total area is about 3,800 hectares. The Belanglo State Forest is located south of Berrima in the Southern Highlands, three kilometres west of the Hume Highway between Sydney and Canberra. The forest is owned by the New South Wales Government and contains some of the earliest pine plantings in the state. The public has free access to the forest; it is popular with recreational trail bike riders.

Backpacker Murders;
In 1992 and 1993, seven skeletons were found in the forest, in what was described by media as The Backpacker Murders and was considered to be the work of a serial killer. Eventually, Ivan Milat was convicted of the murders in 1996 and sentenced to life imprisonment.
On the 29th of August 2010 trail bike riders discovered a human skeleton in the forest. Media reports at first linked the killing to Milat, but later forensic work looks to disprove this theory as evidence suggests that the remains have been left there at a later date.
On the 22nd of November 2010, three teenagers (including one related to Ivan Milat) were arrested on suspicion of connection with the discovery of a murdered male in the forest, following a tip-off.

Copycat murders;
David Auchterlonie was celebrating his birthday on the 20th of November; Mathew Milat 17, and Cohen Klein 18 planned for over a week to lure David Auchterlonie to his death. The third person, whose charges have since been withrawn by the DPP went to police midday the 21st November to report the murder.

WPC Yvonne Joyce Fletcher (15 June 1958 – 17 April 1984) was a British police officer fatally shot during a protest outside the Libyan embassy at St. James's Square, London, in 1984. Fletcher, who had been on duty and deployed to police the protest, died shortly afterwards at Westminster Hospital. Her death resulted in the Metropolitan Police Service laying siege to the embassy for the next eleven days, and the United Kingdom severing all diplomatic relations with Libya. Two years later it became a major factor in Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher's decision to allow U.S. President Ronald Reagan to launch the U.S. bombing of Libya in 1986 from American bases in the United Kingdom.
No one has ever been convicted for the murder of Yvonne Fletcher. However, in 1999, the government of Muammar Gaddafi accepted responsibility for her death and agreed to pay compensation to her family. In just an 18-month period, Fletcher's death became the third murder or manslaughter of an on-duty policewoman in mainland Britain.]]>

Mercaz HaRav Kook Hebrew: מרכז הרב קוק) (lit. Rabbi Kook Institute), is a national-religious yeshiva in Jerusalem, Israel, founded in 1924 by Rabbi Abraham Isaac Kook. It has become the most prominent religious-Zionist yeshiva in the world and synonymous with Kook's teachings. Many Religious Zionist educators and leaders have studied at the Mercaz HaRav Kook.

On the night of March 6, 2008, Alaa Abu Dhein, an Arab from Jabel Mukaber in East Jerusalem, entered the yeshiva with a gun and began firing indiscriminately, killing eight students and wounding 15 others. Abu Dhein's bloody rampage ended with the arrival of Yitzhak Dadon, a part-time student of the yeshiva, and David Shapira, an officer in the Israel Defense Forces, who shot him to death.

The Butovo firing range (Russian: Бутовский полигон) is the name of a location where more than 20,000 political prisoners were shot during the Great Terror of the Soviet Union and thereafter from 1938 to 1953. It is located in the Yuzhnoye Butovo District of Moscow, near the village of Drozhzhino (Russian: Дрожжино). Among those killed in Butovo were Béla Kun, Gustav Klutsis, Seraphim Chichagov, and a number of Orthodox priests later canonized as the New Martyrs. The Russian Orthodox Church took over the ownership of the lot in 1995 and had a large Russian Revival memorial church erected there in the 2000s (decade). The mass grave may be visited on weekends.]]>

Eric V "Klipping" (1249 – November 22, 1286) was King of Denmark from 1259 to 1286.

The legend says he was murdered in a barn on this spot. The king was resting here after being on a hunting trip.

One of the nation's most powerful noblemen, Marsk Stig Andersen Hvide, and 8 fellow men were tried one year after and were outlawed. A knight, Arved Bengtsen, was the only one convicted for the murder.

Former Rizzuto associate Joseph "Joe" Di Maulo, was found dead in the driveway of his residence on Blainvillier Road, in Blainville near Montreal on Nov. 5, 2012.

Di Maulo joined the Rizzuto clan after Bonanno family underboss Paolo Violi was assassinated in 1978. He was convicted in 1971 in a triple murder at a Montreal nightclub, but the verdict was overturned on appeal.

He had kept a relatively low profile for decades, but early in 2011, a few police sources expressed surprise when his name was often mentioned as being part of a small group of men who were trying to reach a consensus on who should take the reins of the Mafia in Montreal.

Vito Rizzuto, 66, the man alleged to have held that position for years, was serving a six years sentence in the U.S. at the time. (Rizzuto was released and deported to Canada in October 2012 and appears to have returned to Montreal about two weeks ago.)

Patrick "Crazy Pat" Henry Sherrill (November 13, 1941 – August 20, 1986) was a United States Postal Service employee who, on August 20, 1986, in Edmond, Oklahoma, killed 14 employees with two .45 caliber pistols at his workplace before turning one of the guns on himself and committing suicide.

The building is the site of what has become known as the 101 California Street shootings, a mass murder which occurred there in 1993. On July 1, Gian Luigi Ferri, a disgruntled client of the law firm Pettit & Martin, entered their offices on the 34th floor and killed eight people and wounded six before killing himself. The event was a catalyst in the passage of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994, a drive initiated by California Senator Barbara Boxer to ban assault weapons. A terraced garden in the plaza in front of the building is now dedicated to the victims.

In the harrowing attack, which has shocked America, 31-year-old Eugene originally from Haiti, chewed lumps of flesh from the face of Mr Poppo.
In the extended video footage of the attack - which lasted almost 20 minutes - a number of people can be seen cycling and driving past and doing nothing to stop it.

After arriving on the scene, officer Jose Rivera shouted at Eugene to stop but he simply got up and growled and continued eating at the man's face.

Eugene was then shot and killed by the Miami police officer.
Initial tests revealed that Eugene had a number of undigested pills in his stomach, according to the Miami Herald.
Marijuana was also in Eugene's system at the time of the attack.

It is believed that Eugene may have been on ‘bath salts’, a potent hallucinogenic drug, when he carried out the gruesome assault.]]>

This is the Bradbury home where auto racing legend Mickey Thompson and his wife Trudy were murdered early one morning in 1988 by two gunmen. Neither of the assassins were ever identified, though Thompson's former business partner was later arrested and convicted of the hit.

This home made worldwide news again in 2006 when current owner Yosef Maiwandi, owner of now-defunct San Gabriel Valley Transit Authority, was arrested and the house searched in connection with the mysterious crash of an illegally-imported $2 million Ferrari Enzo in Malibu, CA. Maiwandi's business associate, infamous Swedish mobster Stefan Eriksson, was later arrested for the crash and deported to Sweden for stealing a Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren and illegal gun possession, among multiple other charges.

The home is still in mostly-original condition and includes a separate 20-car garage, built by Thompson for his race cars.]]>

The shooting of Trayvon Martin took place on February 26, 2012, in The Retreat at Twin Lakes Community in Sanford, Florida. Trayvon Martin was a 17-year-old African American who was shot and killed by 28-year-old George Zimmerman, a man of mixed ethnic descent (Peruvian and white American). Martin was unarmed, walking from a convenience store to the home of his father's girlfriend when Zimmerman, a community watch captain, began following Martin and called the Sanford Police Department to say he witnessed suspicious behavior. Soon afterward, there was a physical altercation which ended when Zimmerman fatally shot Martin.]]> http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/trayvon-martin-shooting-location-02-26-2012/ http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/trayvon-martin-shooting-location-02-26-2012/ Thu, 29 Mar 2012 11:21:03 -0700 http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/trayvon-martin-shooting-location-02-26-2012/ 28.79293500 -81.33056000 <![CDATA[Krakow Ghetto Eagle Pharmacy]]>

Amon Leopold Göth (11 December 1908 – 13 September 1946) was an SS Hauptsturmführer (Captain) and the commandant of the Nazi concentration camp in Płaszów in German-occupied Poland during World War II.

He was tried as a war criminal after the war. After the Supreme National Tribunal of Poland at Kraków found him guilty of murdering tens of thousands of people, he was executed by hanging not far from the former site of the Płaszów camp.

The film Schindler's List memorably depicts his occasional practice standing on the balcony of the commandant's villa and shooting camp internees for sport.

The house is/has been on sale. Who want such a notorious house?]]>
