13′ Jeffrey Dahmer Actor on Cordelia Fate, Evan Peters Portrayal

13′ Jeffrey Dahmer Actor on Cordelia Fate, Evan Peters Portrayal

[This story contains MAJOR spoilers from the sixth episode of American Horror Story,”The Return of Devil’s Night.”] American Horror Story fans knew something big was coming with the sixth episode of the all-star 13th season. As if it wasn’t enough to see icons from the franchise reprising multiple roles in the first three episodes of the crossover installment of Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk’s hit horror series during week one, the episode title for the third episode of week two carried a huge hint: “The Return of Devil’s Night.” “Devil’s Night” was the epic episode of AHS season five, Hotel, that offered up a dinner party with the most notorious real-life serial killers when Evan Peters‘ James Patrick March summoned Aileen Wuornos (played by Lily Rabe), John Wayne Gacy (played by John Carroll Lynch), Richard Ramirez (played by Anthony Ruivivar), The Zodiac Killer (with a covered face) and Jeffrey Dahmer (played by Seth Gabel). The sixth episode’s return to “Devil’s Night” brought back Richard Ramirez, The Zodiac Killer and Dahmer, as March once again called …

Jeffrey Epstein ‘Suicide Note’ Emerges

Jeffrey Epstein ‘Suicide Note’ Emerges

A federal judge on Wednesday unsealed a purported suicide note attributed to Jeffrey Epstein, written before his first reported incident in July 2019 and discovered by his then-cellmate, Nicholas Tartaglione, tucked inside a graphic novel. The undated, unsigned document – released as part of Tartaglione’s unrelated criminal case docket – contains lines such as “They investigated me for month – found NOTHING!!!” and references to saying goodbye. It has been kept under seal for nearly seven years. The note’s release comes amid a flood of Epstein-related document dumps in 2025–2026, yet it does little to quiet the persistent, deeply unsettling questions about how Epstein actually died on August 10, 2019, inside the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) in Manhattan. Official ruling: suicide by hanging. Public consensus, reinforced by every major new tranche of files: something about that story has never added up – and the weirdness only multiplies with each disclosure. The Official Timeline vs. Reality on the Ground Epstein was found unresponsive in his cell shortly before 6:30 a.m. on August 10, 2019. Attorney General …

Purported Jeffrey Epstein suicide note echoed messages he sent earlier

Purported Jeffrey Epstein suicide note echoed messages he sent earlier

WASHINGTON — A federal judge in New York unsealed a suicide note Wednesday purportedly written by Jeffrey Epstein in July 2019, before a failed suicide attempt that came weeks after he was taken into federal custody on sex trafficking charges. The disgraced financier ultimately died weeks later in the same New York City facility in what was ruled a suicide. Although the note’s authenticity has not been established, it contains an apparent reference to a line from a 1931 “Little Rascals” film that Epstein had used in at least two prior email messages, according to the trove of Epstein documents released by the U.S. Department of Justice this year in response to the bipartisan Epstein Files Transparency Act. In the short handwritten note released Wednesday, Epstein allegedly wrote, “They investigated me for month — Found nuthing!!!” The note concludes, “Whatcha want me to do — Bust out cryin!! No Fun – Not Worth It!!” It was a phrase Epstein had used before. In a September 2016 email to his brother, Mark, he wrote, “whtchoo want me todo …

Jeffrey Mundt Should Be in Jail

Jeffrey Mundt Should Be in Jail

Beyond its ponies and bourbon, Louisville, Kentucky, is not all glitter balls and glamour. The birthplace of the disco ball — locally called “glitter balls” — is also the tragic death place of Jamie Carroll. The hairdresser and drag performer was brutally murdered in 2010 by either Joey Banis or Jeffrey Mundt, depending on whom you believe. In HBO‘s two-part true-crime doc Murder in Glitterball City the former lovers point fingers at each other for the crime — only one, Banis, is currently in prison, even though both participated in the basement burial of Carroll following a wild night of sex, drugs and slaughter. The separate trials — due to the he said-he said accusations, since Banis and Mundt could not be tried as co-defendants — as well as the two-part documentary series from Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato hinge on a “confession” video self-recorded by Banis. In a motel room, seemingly holding Mundt at gun point, Banis admits to the murder and absolves his partner of any wrongdoing. It might be an open-and-shut case …

What Everyone Assumes About Jeffrey Epstein

What Everyone Assumes About Jeffrey Epstein

In the case of Jeffrey Epstein, association seems to imply guilt. And so the release of the so-called Epstein files is generating a wave of firings, resignations, and public apologies. The health influencer Peter Attia had to resign from a protein-bar company after emails showed him participating in crude banter with Epstein. CBS News, where Attia was recently hired as a contributor, pulled a 60 Minutes segment featuring him. Brad Karp, who in one email to Epstein gushed, “You’re amazing,” is stepping down as chair of the law firm Paul Weiss. Queen’s University Belfast has announced that it is removing former U.S. Senator George Mitchell’s name from its peace institute and his bust from its campus. Mitchell, who is now 92 years old, presided over the negotiation of the Good Friday agreement in 1998 and served as the school’s chancellor for a decade. But the files suggest that Epstein had scheduled a meeting with him as recently as 2013. Los Angeles officials are calling for the city’s Olympic Committee chair to resign because he exchanged …

Jeffrey Deitch Apologizes to Miles Greenberg for Rapper’s ‘Derivative’

Jeffrey Deitch Apologizes to Miles Greenberg for Rapper’s ‘Derivative’

New York’s Jeffrey Deitch apologized to artist Miles Greenberg after an ascendant rapper staged an event at the gallery that appeared to draw upon a performance done in the same location in 2021. The musician, Lexa Gates, promoted her new album by walking for hours inside a giant wheel at Jeffrey Deitch on January 14. Titled The Wheel, Gates’s performance was meant to “reinforce the message of persistence, emotional resilience and forward motion that acts as the central theme of the record,” according to the event’s official description. Her related album, I Am, has received coverage from such outlets as Pitchfork, which gave it a score of 5.5 out of 10. Source link
