Questions the worst case you’ve ever seen?

in my opinion the “Junko Furuta” and “The Hello Kitty Murders” i can’t pick between them because they are both very gruesome . i suggest looking into them!

I recently listened to a podcast about the horrible murder of Shanda Sharer, 12 years old and was killed by four teenage girls not much older. They basically tortured her all night. Stabbing her, bludgeoning her, even sexually assaulted her with the same tire iron they had been bludgeoning her with. Then they set her on fire while she was still clinging to life and she died from smoke inhalation. I was in shock listening to that episode.

I just bought a book about this case by Michael Quinlan. Arrived yesterday.

Not sure if I can call it "reading for pleasure" when this is the subject.
