every murder is a tragedy but some leave a terrible taste a wealthy socialite loves her husband to Pieces it's one thing to kill someone it's an entirely different thing to hack them to death a perverse fantasy becomes reality from AC Dental deaths to torture to mutilation to the simple Act of murder and young lovers worship the dark side a sadistic killing for perverted pleasure these Deadly Women stop at nothing to follow their Twisted desires she was very clever and conniving and mean he said you can have everything just let me go and she just wasn't going to let that happen New York in the 1970s is a hot bed for revolutionaries we will not stop until the International Community recognizes the Flight of the Soviet Jews and a Haven for those fleeing oppression like Rita Glusman and not until my husband is united with our baby son Rita came to the United States and very quickly started a campaign to get Yakov out of Russia Theus had fled the Soviet Ukraine but her scientist husband Yakov had not been allowed to leave she became somewhat of a celebrity in this cause she was able to get the ear of Congress people my 2-year-old son has learned the word Papa Rita had an 18-day hunger strike out in front of the United Nations she would say my son knows how to say Papa but he's never seen him after 2 years of dedication she generates enough International pressure the Soviet Union let him go probably because of the embarrassment I'm imagining that would be very empowering for Rita look what I did I stood up to to the Soviet Union and I won Rita and Yakov aren't the only winners America is too Yakov Glusman turns out to be a beautiful mind in the field of microbiology over the years he dedicates himself to solving one of the toughest of medical challenges Yakov Glusman perfected a method for cancer research that I believe is helping us to defeat cancer today Yakov is celebrated by the medical community and New York Society ladies and gentlemen I give you the golden C science he received accolades worldwide maybe one day will be celebrating a cure for cancer hopefully this will lead to a big fat research Grant Rita Embraces her husband's success and everything the West has to offer everything that the United States could offer as far as consumerism the Finer Things in life she would drive BMW cars she would travel first class but that's not the life Yakov desires what do you think do you really need another one the only thing he really cared about was he felt he could make a difference in people's lives and that's all he wanted to do we millionaires theak off we won't be for long if you keep spending it like that but you know Rita couldn't stop spending she spent more than he earned his wife's materialism drives Yakov away he moves out of the family home in New Jersey and into a modest apartment in New York Rita is losing control so we got a mic in the bedroom and the Lou room trying to turn the tables she hires a pi hoping for useful secrets so that she could catch him in infidelity probably because she figured she would get more in the divorce she was desperate Yakov I've missed you so much I've missed you too darling Rita hits Pay Dirt Yakov has met another woman an Israeli scientist Rita really feared that Yakov was going to leave her and go to Israel and start a new life with another woman when she confronts Yakov her fears come true he just couldn't take it anymore it's over he decided he had to leave I want a divorce she was terrified that she'd be ruined financially no she didn't want to lose that lifestyle that she had determined that she was entitled to for a peaceful divorce Yakov offers her something he knows she loves money you can have everything the house the business you'll get 1.5 million he wanted his laboratory that's all he needed please sign the papers let me go he said to Rita you can have everything just let me go but now for Rita it's about more than money it's about her standing in the community she's about to lose a world famous scientist to another woman I think she regarded her husband as a possession much like her sports cars her Furs and her designer clothes she wasn't going to let him get away Rita calls in a favor from her cousin 40-year-old Vladimir zelenin what I need your help of course she and Yakov sponsored Vladimir to the United States on a work visa now she claims it's in Jeopardy would you rather be deported she told him if she and Yakov get divorced then Vladimir was going to have to go back to Russia in his mind as he was of Jewish Heritage going back to a country that oppressed the Jewish people in his mind it was a death sentence okay I I'll do it good we'll do it Rita was a very determined woman now about we wait on the evening of April 6th 1996 in Pearl River New York America is about to lose a Star Medical researcher it was Saturday night and she knew that Yakov always worked late on Saturday night at the lab they had axes they had hatchets and they had knives they also had hacksaw and scalpel Rita Glusman and her cousin Vladimir zelenin have a lot to gain from science's loss immediately upon his entering Vladimir Took an Axe and swung it and struck Yakov right across the forehead at the same time his wife Rita gets into action killing somebody with an axe is so bloody and up close and personal it means there's an extraordinary amount of rage and we know that Rita was a passionate woman to avoid divorce Rita needs Yakov to disappear it's one thing to kill someone it's an entirely different thing to hack them to death but Rita could do it but even in pieces a body can be identified Rita has strict instructions did you cut off his nose and lips like I told you and don't forget his fingertips too by the time they finished they had between 66 and 68 pieces of yaka hurry up such diligence takes time the sun rises before Vladimir can dispose of the remains in darkness Vladimir drops Rita off at her apartment and his job was to drive back to the river in a remote area and drop all of these black plastic bags into the river but this cop comes by and they notice he got blood on his clothing something's not right with this picture what's in the bag sir he was probably the worst partner in crime Rita could have possibly chosen when the police approached Vladimir he immediately confessed that he had a body in the bag 's grand plan falls apart Vladimir very quickly expressed remorse in what he had done and it was genuine remorse although Vladimir spills to the police Rita's cleanup is good enough to delay her immediate arrest you had to have something evidentiary to back up the statement of the accomplice you need more police cannot find any evidence that a murder was in fact committed in that apartment but Rita can see the writing on the wall and she goes into hiding she didn't run very far she went to yakov's laboratory where he worked and she hid in one of the residential Bungalows for 6 days a housekeeper surprised Rita when she went to clean one of them Rita jumped out of the back window hey you stop stop her Rita is in custody prosecutors don't have enough evidence to charge her with murder for Vladimir Zenon it's by the book in 1997 he pleads guilty to murder and is sentenced to 22 and2 years in prison he is released in 2015 in his mind this was a death sentence for him if he did not cooperate with Rita she knew that and she exerted that pressure on him without forensic evidence against Rita a murder charge will be difficult to prove but thanks to a federal law Rita is locked away this law said it was a crime to cross state lines to injure your spouse and if that injury resulted in death a certain penalty was attached Rita Glusman is convicted of Interstate domestic violence resulting in death she is sentenced to life in prison no chance of parole if you really think about it her getting Yakov out of Russia wasn't about love it was about her it was about what she wanted and killing him again it was about what she wanted this is a crime motivated by anger and greed life for Rita was all about Rita I'm ready are you on the surface this looks like a Revenge killing but it also may be nothing left less than a thrill killing married 20ss Amanda and Rex Taylor are like any young couple starting a family in ellot Virginia mom when's dinner soon baby Amanda and Rex met uh in high school right let's go after that their lives were just twined hey princess but beneath the apple pie exterior come to Daddy lies a dark Obsession they were both interested in horrifically terrible things that's fun oh my God that's 15 in counting Rex and Amanda spend a lot of time online doing different types of research into serial killers yeah but he didn't leave any clues in the early days people like Charles Manson uh Ted Bundy many people are fascinated by serial killers oh my God what he wrote back he wrote back but not many write fan letters no mine no what mine well read it then for God's sake read it's one thing to be interested in serial killers I certainly am hi Amanda it's so great to hear from you from the outside world oh my God this is so cool but I don't write to them in prison because I want to communicate Amanda's interest seems less about why and more about how she loves graphic horror movies she liked them because she really enjoyed the murder scenes I really want to know what that feels like any form of death was interesting to her from accidental deaths to torture to mutilation to the simple Act of murder but there is trouble in this Devil's Paradise you're kidding what you took some like an hour ago yeah they're harmless Rex was getting high and staying drunk this is a good bit it also cut into the Family Life uh raising their children drugs aren't the only problem in the household you sent him a photo of our kids she found out that Rex had sent a photograph of their son to a serial killer that was in prison you have put my kid in danger I love our kids the serial killer had enjoyed the photograph and did inappropriate things after seeing the photograph and that was very offensive to Amanda get straight or you'll never see them ever again Amanda kicked him out and he went back and lived with his father she won't even let me see the kids I'll talk to her 58-year-old Charles Taylor welcomes his son back to his modest home I think it was very difficult for Rex you're back home with a parent that's you Rex hey Grandpa how you doing he fine and your grandfather are also living in the home those beautiful kids with you oh uh no you're away from your wife and you're away from your children instead of cleaning himself up Rex doubles down Rex would take anything and everything he could get his hands on to feel better I mean the guy suffers from depression already he's on all these medications he's mixing them with illegal drugs something's got to happen happy birthday jie come on up his son's birthday should be a day of Celebration but not for Rex Rex couldn't deal with the fact that Amanda was no longer with him his family was taken from him that drove Rexx further and further into depression happy birthday Rex committed suicide on his son's birthday about 4 to six months after the separation no no Amanda never could deal with the idea that she had any play in what happened to Rex Amanda had to blame somebody for that and it certainly wasn't going to be blaming herself and so she focused her anger on Charles Taylor Amanda blamed Charles for Rex's drug use Charles Taylor became the person that um had caused Rex's death in Amanda's mind she starts becoming more obsessed with not only death but murder in ellot Virginia 2015 Amanda Taylor is obsessed with violent crime it's a passion she shared with her husband until his suicide this one now she wants a new partner can you believe how much blood there is that so cool it is she actually went on the hunt for somebody the perfect person to feed all of that lust for violence and blood and gore had my gun and I just popped this guy right in the shoulder and she found him two shots then one in the leg 32-year-old Shawn ball seems amply qualified Amanda met Shawn uh through some mutual friends I've seen some pretty gruesome stuff tell me he had actually claimed to be um an X Navy SEAL I uh had this knife up to this guy's throat one time and I just jammed it in there and it just had blood pouring out his front part of a elite War fighting unit did he die I think so it's so cool yeah but you know what it's all aive the guy's a waiter at a restaurant never served time in the Navy but now Shawn's ready to serve Amanda you should be and he's signed up for a rough ride Amanda went to Rex's grave site on their shared birthday March 27th come no okay between the emotion and the alcohol she was consuming she became hysterical and out of control settle down come on Amanda come on relax she became very distraught at the grave and had this knife was waving it around and the people that were with her became concerned that she was either going to hurt herself or perhaps you know hurt one of of them Amanda has someone else in mind to feel her knife I'm ready are you the man she blames for taking her husband Amanda blamed Rex's father for Rex's drug addiction and suicide I miss him so much Charles was somebody that she could justify in her mind Charles deserves to die but he wasn't to blame at all Amanda was just looking for someone to kill this scene is really something that's been playing in her head and something she's watched on the internet in movies she knows exactly what she wants to do when she started to stab sea had a choice and he chose to help and he beat Charles in the head with that tyon Amanda stabbed Charles 31 times in the face and neck I don't think it was so much out of hatred as it was seeing what it felt like to plunge a knife into someone proving this is more than revenge Amanda goes social she holds up that knife with blood and flesh all over it Charles's body is in the background and she takes a selfie Amanda was very proud of what she did Amanda posts this graphic gory bloody photograph online and she says I stabbed my father-in-law to death because he is responsible for my husband's suicide take a video the pair hit the road but they're not heading home so who's next Amanda started talking about this murder spree going ahead and uh starting killing multiple people and moving their way across the country Shawn realizes he's in over his head and tries to knock himself out with sedatives a man is pissed H she points the gun at his face and she says I want you to know something I only use you for your guns and your car and I want you to die and what does she do next she shoots him in the face again Amanda captures her handiwork for social media she continued to make postings on social media so the police were able to follow her location and her motivation and confessions essentially the police know what she's up to but not exactly where until the strangest thing I'm in Virginia I'm lost she called the police station told them who she was and asked for directions I think she wanted to be caught at the other end of the line is Montgomery County Sheriff Captain Robert new I knew what was riding on this call if we could not get her off the street soon somebody else's life was going to be taken Robert gets Amanda to reveal her location and she's soon under arrest incredibly her accomplished Shawn is still alive upon being arrested Amanda waved her rights and be am talking so what was it like it's kind of like a roller coaster you're feeling this anticipation she was proud of what she did she couldn't wait to tell people about it you're excited about it but kind of scared about it too she describes it as it's the first time I felt alive since Rex died it was such a thrill that it was like riding a roller coaster she's quoted as saying in 2015 Amanda Taylor is convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole Shawn ball recovers and is sentenced to 60 years speaking to her I felt like I was speaking to evil she took joy in death and she loved the attention she got got from it I think a part of Amanda just couldn't be on her own with someone she could be strong without someone she was a nobody Amanda Taylor claims Vengeance had driven her to murder in reality it is for the thrill of the kill I asked her I said well I said you wanted to be a serial killer she said yeah so how's it feel to fail now left Amanda got high from killing so we're all better off that she's in prison for the rest of her life when two people share the same interest and the interest is bad there comes a point where talk is no longer enough they need a real live victim 2014 England's historic village of Stratford upon aen hey Kaye hey I love your hair thanks I wish I could do mine like that I can show you really yeah 22-year-old Kaylee Woods is making Fast Friends with 20-year-old Bethany Hill Bethany and Kaye met at College they instantly became friends my turn it wasn't long after they met that Kaylee invited Bey to come and live with her they don't just share a love of hair and makeup so what did you say his name was again Jack Jack Williams you're joking no do you know him oh you are not going to believe this they have the same taste in men he's always late oh I know he's going to die when he knows who my new friend is he is

yeah good good really good it's been forever I know right it didn't last particularly long and you guys are studying Together Jack and Kay's relationship is far more serious Kaye fell head over heels in love with him well cheers yeah cheers girls old and new friend it was very serious particularly for Kaye she'd never had anyone love her and she said that the that it was very intense the love that she felt for him she adored being in love and also believe that Jack was in love with her two now becomes three Kaye starts to worry she wasn't entirely comfortable with the fact that Bethany was there set this one out Bethany Kaye was very insecure about the fact that Jack used to date her friend Bethany but Jack only has eyes for his new girlfriend he moves in with them both and reveals his secret passion to Kaye Jack had a lot of issues with the maab and Satanism sexual violence the devil's tribe known as a satanic salute is always given with a left hand wasn't exactly good boyfriend material but Kaye was drawn to him they lived in a little weird bubble of an obsession with Satanism come join us Beany uh no and right in the middle of this was sweet Bethany Kaye doesn't have to worry about Bethany getting between them but she does have to worry about Jack you're acting like a Jack was very insecure and jealous of Kaye even speaking with another male put it down put it down her boyfriend is losing it bethanie there was the incident where he threatened Kaye with the knife open the door she managed to barricade herself to protect herself into the bathroom I'll kill you I'll tell you and your family Jack spoke about hurting or killing people I'm the door I'm the door rape murder and even mass murder he was clearly very disturbed Jack stabbed the knife through the door multiple times Bethany isn't spared either Jack didn't didn't regard himself as a friend of betham his and he would Express um contempt for her and what he regardless her weaknesses and her inadequacies she feels like an outsider in her own home she shouldn't have been there Bethany had her own mental issues she suffered from intense depression she was self Haring I don't think anybody could be happy living in that environment the girls have had enough they call the police Jack was immediately forced by law to move out of the apartment with their Nemesis out of the house the pair mend their friendship and look forward to happier times I got pizza until Jack's back in Stratford upon aan England what are you doing here you missed me Kaye Woods has lapsed she just can't live without boyfriend Jack Williams it's okay he's changed it's a shock for roommate Bethany Hill trust me it's it's okay Bethany wouldn't be happy about him coming back to the flat Bethany was in trouble reminds you of anyone hello Bethy so there was this doll that belonged to Kaye that she' had from a very young age not only has Kaye forgiven Jack she's plunged back into his dark world of violent thoughts when Jack created that fetish dll he must have had in mind the idea of binding someone and indeed tortur doll abuse is not uncommon among sex offenders and sex Killers it fuels their violent fantasies until the time will come when the doll isn't enough sensing she's now very much the Third Wheel hey Daddy it's me Bethany plans her escape on February 2nd 2016 I want to come home she called her dad and said come get me I'm I'm ready to come home okay I'll talk to you tomorrow okay take care now bye because it was late her father said he would come and get her in a few days time that will be too late for two people with a barent fantasies they need a real live victim what are you doing shut up get off there t Bethany was dragged to the bathroom her head was smashed against the wall the plan was to torture her you can't torture a dead person put head forward okay a knife had been repeatedly drawn across the back of her neck intended to inflict pain and fear after an hour of unspeakable horror The Thrill Is Over the knife was used to to cut Bean's throat it was horrific once her jugular vein was severed Bethany would have died in about 10 seconds Kaye said that Jack was sexually aroused during the torture and murder torture of another person usually turns on the satus when emotions subside it's back to reality Kaylee and Jack decided they would claim it was suicide the next day kayle's ready for the police my best friend's dead in my flat Kaye said my friend I think she's dead she gave the impression she committed suicide and then the call ended but the couple's horrifying game leaves too much evidence the victim's wounds look anything but self-inflicted a blind detective could have seen that this was no suicide their cover story crumbles immediately and when it became clear to Kaye very quickly that she was the main murder suspect in this she soon changed her story it was then she decided to blame Jack in 2017 Jack Williams is convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison with a non-parole period of 26 years usually in gruesome Tums that commit murder one person is the leader and one person is the follower but I do believe that Kaye is a monster Kaye Woods is convicted of the same charge also receives life with a minimum of 26 years behind bars neither Kaye nor Jack have ever told the truth about what went on in that flame the only person who knows the truth is Bethany and sadly Bethany isn't here to tell us an innocent woman wishing no one harm became a tragic tool for Twisted Minds Jack and Kaye went In Search Of A Thrill and turned to the closest Target the relationship between Kaye and Jack is probably the sickest I've ever come across they fed off each other's Twisted desires and poor Bethany was the innocent victim of this thrill killers come in both genders all socioeconomic levels a black heart does not discriminate these deadly women were as brutal as beasts Rita Glusman preferred murder over a divorce Amanda Taylor killed for fame and Kaye Woods did the devil's work all these women had Twisted desires you
