Cortney texts her sister, Candis, asking if she has any hand-me-downs she can use for a baby. Which is a confusing question for Candis because she had no clue her sister was pregnant. No one did.

Nonetheless, Candis learns of her new baby nephew, born prematurely, and still in the NICU.

About a week passes and the sisters don’t text until new mom Cortney breaks the news to Candis...

“My son passed away... Idk what happened. I just know that he wasn’t getting air. All I know is I watched my child die right in front of me.”

Candis will soon realize that the same day Cortney’s son died in the NICU, a 22 year old pregnant woman had gone missing.

It’s all circumstantial but it has to be connected in some way, right?

Especially that last text message from Cortney: “All I know is I watched my child die right in front of me.”

Is Cortney talking about the baby boy nobody knew she was pregnant with that she claims was in the NICU? Or is she talking about her daughter?

The missing 22 year old pregnant woman.

It’s been about half a year since Karen Read was acquitted of second degree murderer in the death of her former boyfriend, Boston cop John O’Keefe.

I thought it was time to answer the long awaited question, ‘hos long until she does an interview?’

These are just a FEW of the questions I asked Karen Read in her first exclusive interview after her acquittal...

What do you think happened to John O’Keefe the night he died?

What happened to the Alberts’ German shepherd Chloe?

Did you feel like Aunty Bev (Judge Cannone) had a personal vendetta against you?

And if you had to choose, who would you go to dinner with? Lullaby Lally or Spanky Hanky Brennan?

SJ would be the next to die.

At least that’s how it seemed to his worried sister in-law, Mimi. Sitting next to him in the hallway of the morgue and even through her own grief, she questioned his health; that if left alone he might take his life out of despair.

SJ’s wife and Mimi’s sister, lay on a steel table in the room over, technicians actively cutting into her body.

Mimi hoped this autopsy would tell them how her sister ended up dead inside of her newlywed home after just 3 months of marriage.

SJ hoped they wouldn’t notice the light red markings on his wife’s neck but knew her cause of death would be revealed.

So he starts building his ‘alibi,’ “You know…I’m someone with a very strong sexual desire-“

Caught completely off guard by his statement, Mimi just stares at SJ, “…What?”

“I’m a person with strong desires, you know, but your sister would never let me touch her.”

It likely didn’t take long for Mimi to consider that SJ dying next might not be all that bad.

“From today, I’m logging off this account for good.”

This was a status update made to a small, personal Facebook account on June 10, 2025. Just a month later, the post goes viral amongst some netizens because the man who ‘posted’ this to his Facebook?

He died 6 months ago.

And thousands of those netizens had already witnessed his murder.

They had seen the butcher knife slamming down onto the man’s neck over and over again. They call the killer the “butcher.” The butcher even took the time to pose with the man’s severed head in a mirror selfie.

How do you post on facebook 6 months after your own murder? Is this post going to help people find the killer? And how do thousands of netizens witness a man’s murder?

This is the case of the Vietnamese Butcher.

“There’s no such thing as steps,” and “they were two peas in a pod.”

These are statements made by Anna Kepner’s grandparents who were with her on the cruise when she died. Her body was found under the mattress and her cause of death was mechanical asphyxiation.

Which is what makes this comment particularly odd to some netizens...because Anna’s grandparents are referring to her relationship with her 16 year old step brother.

The very step brother who was the only other person in the room around the estimated time of death. The very step brother who is now a suspect in Anna’s murder.

They are not the only suspicious adults in this case though. Anna’s biological father and her step mother, the mother of the 16 yo step brother, who were also on the cruise with the family were seen over a month after Anna’s murder, walking from court, their faces completely blank yet gripping each other’s hands.

Anna’s father has just lost his daughter yet he seemingly appears closer than ever to his wife and the mother of the murder suspect.

This is part two of the Anna Kepner cruise ship murder.

November 8, 2025, a small SUV drives up to the Carnival cruise ship docked at Port Miami. The thick letters on the side of the car read:

MIAMI DADE COUNTY
MEDICAL EXAMINER

FBI agents are seen bringing what appears to be a cadaver stretcher off the ship.

Just 24 hours before docking, in a cabin where three step-siblings were rooming together, a crew member finds a dead body.

An 18 year old girl named Anna Kepner, hidden underneath a mattress amongst blankets and life jackets.

The youngest sibling is seemingly ruled out and the most likely person of interest appears to be her 16 year old step brother...Whom Anna’s father and stepmother seem to be defensively ‘protective’ of.

This is the ongoing case of Anna Kepner’s murder.

Is it possible to completely forget something you experienced?

Well, it depends on who you ask. Pick a side and welcome to the memory wars.

One side believes it is possible. There are documented cases of victims of traumatic events who forget for years until one day when they begin to remember.

The other side believes that this is not a real thing. You cannot just forget a memory and then suddenly remember it.

The stakes are high for the memory wars. And the stakes are even higher for the False Memory Syndrome Foundation.

FMSF is on the side that denies repressed memories. For decades, FMSF has denied victims of all ages who have remembered experiences of CSA and torture, including Mary Knight. This is her story.
