Everyone The Internet Believes Helped D4vd Cover Up His Crimes

Two songs come out around the time of D4vd’s recent arrest titled, ‘Imaginary Love’ and ’S*x.’ However, these songs aren’t released by D4vd, they’re released by an artist with the stage name Cara Kova.   Cara Kova is also known as Caleb Burke, David’s younger brother. And his second debut single, ’S*x,’ is released right after David is arrested and charged in the murder, dismemberment and SA of a 14 year old girl.   Netizens have mixed feelings. Some just criticize the timing and title of Caleb’s release. Some disagree. That Caleb was states away from David and shouldn’t be judge by the actions of his older brother.   But a few netizens believe everything in David’s case is just way too suspicious and even use forums to ask anyone associated with David if they were a potential accomplice in the killing of Celeste Rivas Hernandez.         Full show notes available at RottenMangoPodcast.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

D4vd’s 50TB of Evidence: CSAM, Chainsaws, Burn Cage, Inflatable Pool & Body Bag

You can buy a cadaver bag online, no questions asked. Though, most of the buyers make sense: a rural veterinarian, a hunter, maybe a livestock farmer.   Just because you order a body bag on Amazon doesn’t mean you get put on some government watch list, right?   Recently, people have been arguing for the opposite.   Especially if a buyer is flagged buying an inflatable pool, two chainsaws, and a large burn cage, in addition to a cadaver bag.   These were purchases made by David Burke, aka ‘D4vd.’ The same rising pop-singer whose Tesla was discovered to contain the dismembered remains of a 14 year old child.   D4vd was just arrested, seven months after the Tesla discovery. According to California v. David Anthony Burke aka ‘D4vd,’ this is exactly what authorities say happened…         Full show notes available at RottenMangoPodcast.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Married Google Engineer Cheats With Ex, Gets Rejected, Then Kills Wife With His Bare Hands

A cat feeder in California, meant to monitor Ivy and Tony’s two pet cats unintentionally captures the following events on camera.   12:21 am, Ivy walks into the kitchen and starts cleaning up. By 1:04 am, Ivy turns off the lights and heads to bed.   4:43 am and suddenly movement is detected. Tony, her husband, comes into frame with his shirt splattered in a deep red substance. He wanders out of frame only to return wielding a circular hand saw - the electric ones with a rotating blade and serrated edges made to cut two by fours.   He’s tense. Rigid. The electric saw isn’t on but he has it pressed against his throat. The serrated blade is frozen. His finger hovers over the power button. All he needs to do is just. press. down.   He pulls the saw away from his neck and walks out of frame again.   The next time he’s caught on the pet feeder, one of his arms is completely swollen, drenched in blood. But Tony isn’t injured. So where is all this blood coming from? What has he been doing all night? And what is he going to do when he realizes the pet feeder is recording his every move?

All Of Teacher Haley Beck's 4k Grooming Texts, 'Sugar Baby + Prostitution' Deals & Sick Love Letter

High school relationships typically end with everyone moving away for college, which is why ‘love’ letters like these are written. This was addressed to *redacted*, the quarterback of the high school football team.   “..Even if we don’t talk all the time now or even @all when you’re in college, I feel like our little bond will always be there - so just hit me when you wanna go get wasted @ a bar together and I’ll send you my wedding invite one day…”   “…how you wouldn’t get out of my car for like 3 hours…or all the random times you “fell asleep” on my couch just waiting for me to invite you into my room (lol)…”   “...for this “relationship” being extremely wrong, I feel like we have really made the most out of it…I mean, you’ve been to my parent’s house…in their closet…insane.”   “Like bro, you’re the 1st person that got me to smoke weed…Even though you never say it back, I love you + wish you all the best…Love, HB.”   The letter never makes it to the quarterback. Instead, it’s found by the Peoria Police Department during a search warrant of the quarterback’s old high school teacher.   27 year old Haley Beck - or as her students call her - Ms. Beck, has just been caught grooming one of her students.         Full show notes available at RottenMangoPodcast.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

“Pretty” 20-Yr-Old Girl Kills Her Male Dates For Being “Needy”, But Men Want To "Fix Her"

Taxi drivers run the gamut of clientele outside motels but it’s a hotspot for business and this night-shift driver just lucked out. A very beautiful, 20 year old young woman, in a low cut top, climbs into the backseat.   A smell hits the driver. She’s holding two giant take out bags of fried chicken. Great. A new, horrible air freshener.   Suddenly she urges him, “Hurry! Go fast! I’m being chased! I’ll give you cash!! Go, go, go!”   The driver steps on the gas out of instinct, frantically glancing back in his rearview. The woman leans back, takes a deep breath, snaps a picture, and then just starts scrolling on her phone like every other fare. Her demeanor seems relaxed now?   The ride was different but not outrageous. Still, the driver doesn’t stop thinking about it. The fried chicken grease smell. The weird urgency and then the lack thereof. Was she lying about the chase so he would drive faster, getting her home before her chicken went cold??   Then, he sees the news. The young woman he picked up that evening is the motel serial killer of South Korea.   The one locals claim is, ‘too pretty to go to jail.’         Full show notes available at RottenMangoPodcast.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Another ‘19 Kids & Counting’ Duggar Couple Arrested for Child Molestation and Endangerment

Oprah Winfrey has just flown the Duggar family, in late 2006, from their isolated farm in Arkansas to Chicago. She covers all accommodations for mom, dad, and their litter of (at the time) 17 kids and counting in exchange for an interview.   The Duggars are a well known reality TV family, iconic for their cult-like way of life. They looked like time travelers. A family plucked from the pre-electricity past and dropped in the middle of the big city.   Before they can even start filming, an anonymous email in all caps, lands in one of the producer’s inboxes:   “…YOU NEED TO KNOW THE TRUTH… [REDACTED] HAS MOLESTED [REDACTED] WHILE [REDACTED] WERE SLEEPING AND THE PARENTS HAVE BEEN HIDING THIS SECRET FOR A LONG TIME…”   Oprah takes the tip seriously. She cancels their interview and forwards the email straight to the authorities and a child abuse hot line.   The email is later found to be sent by a [redacted] female. And not only that, the sender is right…   At least 3 Duggars have been arrested thus far, in addition to 1 police officer in connection with their case, all relating to crimes against children.         Full show notes available at RottenMangoPodcast.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Influencer Hunts For Twin Lookalike On Instagram & Brutally Kills Her - But She Won't Say Why

Mattheo is driving to a town called Nuremberg in Germany. A good friend of his is sitting shotgun and just as they’re driving past a local pizzeria, about to get onto the highway ramp, Mattheo spots something in his peripheral.   He slams the brakes, his friend’s head almost hits the dash, and he pulls a U-turn as fast as physically possible.   The moment the car stops, he’s out and walking straight up to a girl with long, dark hair standing in front of the pizzeria. She looks a bit skittish. Her eyes are giant as he stares back at her.   He says the first thing he asks her is, “Are you dead?”   She responds slowly, “I don’t know…” Then she bolts. Runs off. Mattheo jumps back into the car to follow her.   She’s not supposed to be here. She’s not supposed to be anywhere. She’s supposed to be dead.           Full show notes available at RottenMangoPodcast.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Young Woman Self Exits W/ Gun Longer Than Arms In Mayor's Home - 2 Yrs Later Another Girl Is Dead

Two officers from the Kotzebue, Alaska Police Department enter a living room and ask the two small children watching SpongeBob, “Did someone call the police?”   One just points to a bedroom door. Inside, a man, Anthony, cradles a young woman’s body drenched in blood.  He says she’s his girlfriend, Jennifer. That he too, was just watching SpongeBob in the living room when he heard a ‘pop’ from the bedroom and found her with a ‘self-inflicted’ gun shot wound to her chin.   An investigation begins. The rifle used measures 27 and 1/8th inches long from barrel to trigger. Jennifer’s arm is 26 and 3/16th inches long. Nothing comes of it. The medical examiner observes red strangulation marks around Jennifer’s neck. The investigation is over within one day. Jennifer’s death is declared a self exit.   They don’t test for gunshot residue on the boyfriend, Anthony. They don’t look into his past record of abuse and SA.   After all, Anthony lives with his father, Clement Richards Senior, the mayor of the Northwest Arctic Borough. Surely this was a horrific one time tragic event…   Two years later another young woman’s body is found one again, at the mayor’s home.           Full show notes available at RottenMangoPodcast.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Everything Bill & Hillary Clinton Said In 8 Hour Long Epstein Deposition Tape

One day before Nancy, mother of news anchor Savannah Guthrie, goes missing, the DOJ releases the largest, single dump of documents in the history of the Epstein case.   Over 3.5 million pages. More than 2k videos. Approximately 180k images.   A little over 24 hours later, Nancy vanishes and the internet starts connecting some dots, suggesting strings were pulled to ensure her disappearance monopolized the national news stage instead of the most recent Epstein files dump.   Netizens cite Savannah Guthrie’s 2019 interview with 6 of Epstein’s survivors including Shante Davies who was pictured with the former US president Bill Clinton and the now late, Virginia Guiffre. The dateline special was Virginia’s first ever televised interview, where she sat across from Savannah and specifically implicated Prince Andrew in Epstein’s trafficking ring.   So is the timing of Nancy’s disappearance just coincidental or is there something deeper at play?   Most importantly, what exactly is in these files that the public would possibly ‘need distracting’ from?         Full show notes available at RottenMangoPodcast.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Kidnapping Of Nancy Guthrie: 2 Men Detained & Why Is The Internet Pointing Fingers At Son-in-Law

A woman dressed like Kanye’s wife, Bianca Censori, flips off the rest of the people surrounding the house, news vans & nosy neighbors, as they shame her for posing and taking pictures in front of the crime scene.   The red brick house is home to Nancy Guthrie, who has been missing for over a month. Day one, day two, and now going on 30 plus days, the scene outside her home, where she disappeared from has been national news.   And even with a million dollar reward, the head of the FBI getting involved over Twitter, the ‘president’ getting involved, there are still no solid answers.   And when there are no solid answers, people tend to start creating their own…   This is the case of Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance and suspected kidnapping for ransom. All the conspiracies, speculations, and rumors - including - is this case being used as a headline coverup to bury what else has been happening in the US?       Full show notes available at RottenMangoPodcast.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
