1:42

Hey guys, welcome to episode 114

1:44

of macabre misfortunes. I'm

1:47

Jerry and I'm Tracy Tracy.

1:50

This story is a

1:52

gruesome one. Actually, we

1:54

have two stories and

1:58

both a gruesome. I

2:01

don't like gruesome. I know you don't. So

2:04

this first one we're going to discuss an incident from 2008

2:06

in Great Britain. So

2:10

let's first get some background. David

2:13

Fial, he lived alone on

2:15

Bodmin Road in Eastley, England.

2:17

Okay, he was 50 years

2:20

old at the time. The

2:23

apartment that he lived in was about to

2:25

be demolished. So they had

2:27

already told people, hey, you're about to move. We're

2:30

going to put something else here. And they

2:32

found them some other places to live. Apparently

2:36

David had some mental

2:38

issues, some mental health issues. He'd

2:40

had epilepsy. He had

2:43

some mobility issues. So

2:48

he had some stuff going on. He

2:53

was, and I quote, irrationally

2:58

opposed to moving. And

3:00

that was to the people who told him he had to move when

3:02

he pretty much threw fits about it. I mean,

3:04

was the place in such bad despair that

3:06

that's why they decided to do that? I'm

3:09

not sure what the reasons were for them wanting

3:11

to do that. I don't know if they just

3:13

wanted to put something else there or what situation

3:15

was. But he pretty much refused to leave. He

3:20

was given 11 adequate

3:23

places to move to, but he still

3:25

refused. A

3:27

formal eviction notice was then served on

3:29

him. This

3:32

sounds like the

3:34

eviction letter was a straw that broke the camel's back.

3:38

So let's go to November 2008. There

3:41

was a nine nine nine call coming

3:44

into police from David's elderly parents. Now,

3:46

of course, nine nine nine is their nine one. They

3:50

were concerned because they hadn't talked to

3:52

him in almost two weeks and that

3:55

was unusual. So

3:57

police and the parents go

3:59

to his apartment. Police

4:02

had his parents wait outside while

4:05

they went inside and check things out. Tracy,

4:08

what police saw would be one of the

4:11

most gruesome scenes that they had ever come

4:13

across. The

4:16

lounge was covered in

4:18

blood. What? The lounge? You like

4:20

when they walk into the place? Yeah, like

4:22

the living room area. I'm

4:25

talking cabinets, the

4:28

walls, the floor, and

4:30

even the ceiling. On

4:34

the floor they found a man

4:36

lying face up. Um,

4:39

literally. He had been fully

4:41

decapitated. Oh my gosh.

4:43

By a chainsaw. Oh!

4:47

But not just any chainsaw. This

4:50

one had been suspended by ropes

4:52

in a pulley system. The

4:54

trigger had been duct taped down.

4:58

So as you can imagine, the police

5:01

were thoroughly confused at

5:03

this odd contraption that he

5:06

had obviously built and

5:08

was hanging from the ceiling. Oh,

5:11

him the victim? Yes, it

5:13

was a… he wasn't hanging. No,

5:15

no, no, but he built it. It

5:18

was a homemade pulley system that

5:20

would allow the user to drop the

5:22

chainsaw onto them. This

5:30

pretty much made it a modern day guillotine. Oh

5:33

my goodness. So upon

5:35

further investigation, they eventually figured out

5:37

that this was indeed David Fyle.

5:41

David had lived there for eight years, and

5:43

his death was ruled a suicide. They

5:47

later found that he had been planning

5:49

this suicide for some time. He

5:53

was meticulously building this device

5:57

and going to great deals of trouble to… assemble

6:01

the whole getup. You mean since

6:04

they worked to

6:06

be evicted is when he started it? It's

6:09

thought that he did the suicide

6:11

in this manner to draw

6:13

attention to the injustice that he felt like

6:16

was being placed upon him.

6:20

Oh, honestly, I don't think it proved

6:22

anything. Deputy coroner Simon

6:25

Burge, not Burch, said

6:29

that in the last 15 years that

6:32

he'd been coroner, this was the most

6:34

bizarre case that he could ever recall.

6:38

Man, I don't... That,

6:41

I mean, it

6:43

just seems far-fetched even that he would think

6:45

all that. I mean, surely he knew it

6:47

was going to kill him. We've either...

6:50

I don't think we've covered the story on here, but it's

6:52

one I looked at. But

6:55

there's another story very similar to this. It

6:57

happened here in the US, but

7:00

it was a boy who would go working with

7:02

his dad a lot. He was a carpenter, so

7:04

he learned a lot of carpenter skills. He's probably

7:06

17, 18 years old, and

7:11

he would go to work with his dad every day and

7:14

just do whatever... His

7:16

dad owned his own company, so he would go work for him.

7:18

Then he asked his dad if he could start working on a

7:21

project of his own. So he worked

7:23

this project up in his bedroom, and every day he

7:26

would be in there working on it. His dad would hear him nailing

7:28

and stuff like this. This went on for three or four weeks, and

7:31

he had literally built a

7:34

device like that that he had in his

7:36

closet that had like a

7:38

timer on it and gears

7:40

to where when it reached a certain point,

7:42

it would decapitate him. And

7:45

he... That's what he did. And his dad said

7:48

he had no clue that's what he was in there working on. And

7:51

then when he heard something

7:55

one day that was really loud, which was

7:57

that machine going off... He

8:00

went in and found it, but they

8:02

said this thing was so detailed. And

8:04

so it was like a remake of

8:06

like a medieval torture device that

8:08

this kid had spent literally weeks

8:12

making. That's so sad. My goodness.

8:15

Could just use it on a stuffed animal or

8:18

something. Why do you have to go that far? Well,

8:20

I think the whole point was they wanted to end

8:22

themselves. I know. They wanted to do it

8:24

in an elaborate way. Oh my gosh. For some

8:26

of it. And I think he left a letter

8:29

to his dad at what was going on. Really? Yeah,

8:32

that's a very way more details than what I'm

8:34

giving in just this little synopsis. All

8:38

right, Tracy. So that was obviously a

8:40

shorter story. So we're going to take

8:42

a quick sponsor break and we're going to be

8:45

9:50

right, Tracy. To keep up with the gruesome theme,

9:52

as I said in the beginning, this

9:55

story is... Man.

10:00

you're not gonna like it so we're just gonna

10:02

say that it's bad on so many levels but

10:07

it will show you that

10:11

there might be a little bit of karma involved when

10:14

you least suspect it. Now

10:16

I'm also gonna tell you this you

10:18

have to be careful when you research some

10:20

of these stories because for

10:23

example the last story we talked about with David

10:25

Fowl I found one story that said he was

10:27

58 years old but I found five

10:29

other stories and all of them said he was

10:31

50 years old. I mean

10:34

that doesn't seem like much but that's

10:36

an eight-year difference in age. Yeah. And

10:38

one story compared to what he actually

10:40

was. This story's got some situations

10:42

like that too and I'll tell you as we

10:44

go. But in

10:46

the end he's dead anyway. Correct. It really

10:49

doesn't matter. Correct. But I'm just saying

10:51

this story is gonna have more details that would

10:54

leave you guessing so it

10:56

does make more of a difference.

10:58

22 year old Bethany Stevens she

11:01

lived in Virginia. She

11:04

had some pit bulls that

11:07

she lived with her father. The pit bulls stayed

11:09

with her and her father and

11:11

Bethany was working

11:15

where she was not being able to come

11:17

home every single day. She was coming home four or

11:19

five days a week. Okay. So that

11:21

left some of the responsibilities

11:25

on her dad to take care of the dogs.

11:28

Well on this day she

11:30

comes home she sees her father and

11:33

her two pit bulls by the name of

11:35

Tonka and Pac-Man. These

11:39

dogs were everything to her. She had them

11:41

as puppies. She didn't

11:43

get them at the same time but they were from the

11:45

same litter. So she got one

11:48

as a puppy and then the other one went

11:50

to a couple different houses ended up back at

11:52

the breeder I guess and then she took the

11:55

dog on. So it could be what it's a

11:57

brother. They were both males. On

12:01

December 13, 2017, Bethany came to the house and she left the

12:04

house around 3.45

12:06

to take the dogs for a walk. The

12:13

plan was to be home in about 30 minutes.

12:16

Well, she didn't return in

12:18

30 minutes. Her father

12:21

became concerned. The

12:23

police were called the police and the

12:26

police jumped on the situation after missing for two hours. That's

12:34

not what happened. So

12:37

that's not what happened. What happened was that

12:39

a couple of her friends showed up and said,

12:41

Hey, is Bethany there? And her dad said, Well, I

12:43

thought she was with you guys. So

12:46

the friends started looking for her

12:48

and then they eventually got police

12:50

involved. So police did get involved, but it wouldn't

12:53

exactly the way I had read it. So

13:00

police go and they start talking

13:02

to neighbors. And

13:05

one of the neighbors said, you know what? There

13:08

was some blood curdling screams that

13:11

were happening earlier today. It's probably about

13:14

4 30 and it was right

13:16

over here behind our house. The

13:21

police, I don't know what ended up

13:23

happening here to be honest with you

13:25

because again, one of

13:28

the articles said that they checked it out four days later,

13:30

which didn't make sense. In reality,

13:32

the very next next night,

13:35

her father went

13:37

over and searched that area. And

13:41

in that area, they found

13:43

the two dogs. Okay.

13:46

The two dogs were gnawing on something and

13:50

they weren't exactly sure what it was. You

13:53

know, so police are now involved on it. So

13:55

the police get over there close and

13:58

they see that the. combining
