Something less gruesome than politics for a change, but quite gruesome nonetheless.
I just came across this story very scary stuff.

ANDERSON COUPLE'S DISAPPEARANCE
Brown and boyfriend Charles Carver, 32, were reported missing after disappearing in late August.
Brown’s mother, Bobbie Newsom, said her daughter disappeared on social media on Aug. 28 and there has been no activity on her cell phone since Aug. 31. Newsom later found Brown’s apartment unlocked and the dog inside without food and water. The dog’s crate was also missing.
The Anderson Police Department subsequently launched an investigation into the couple’s disappearance.
A few weeks later, mysterious posts on Facebook began to surface on the Facebook account belonging to Carver. The posts claimed Carver and Brown were alive and well but the missing woman’s family was not convinced.
Anderson Police Chief Jim Stewart told the Associated Press that the joint investigation with the Spartanburg County Sheriff's Office began when investigators learned through phone records that the Woodruff property was the last place a phone connected to the case was "pinged."
Carver's family members were clinging to hope that he was still alive, despite claims that Brown saw Kohlhepp shoot Carver multiple times.
On Saturday, Wright revealed that Carver's vehicle had been hidden on the property in a ravine. Wright later confirmed that a body found in a shallow grave on Kohlhepp's property was identified as Carver.

WOODRUFF, SC (FOX Carolina) - Spartanburg County Coroner Rusty Clevenger said he will release the names of the two people who were found buried on Todd Kohlhepp's Woodruff property. The announcement will come at a news conference Wednesday afternoon.
Two additional grave sites were found on a Spartanburg County property where a woman was held captive in a storage container and her boyfriend was found buried in a shallow grave.
The owner of the property, 45-year-old Todd Kohlhepp, was arrested Thursday morning after the kidnapping victim was discovered on his nearly100-acre property in Woodruff. Investigators have been searching the land for additional evidence ever since, turning up three bodies in the process.
Below are the latest updates in the Kohlhepp investigation:
KIDNAPPING VICTIM DISCOVERED
On Nov. 3, Wright said 30-year-old Kala Brown was found "chained up like a dog" and had been kept there for two months. Wright said she was being held in a metal storage container that is approximately 30 feet by 15 feet on a large tract of property along Wofford Road. Investigators discovered her after hearing a banging sound inside the container while conducting an investigation on the land.
Brown was reportedly being fed by her captor while chained up by her neck.
"It's all by God's grace we found that little girl alive," Wright said. She was released after being treated at an undisclosed medical facility.
Newsom said Thursday that her daughter was extremely emotional but was in good physical condition.
"I have got so many emotions going on," Newsom said. "I’m ecstatic, scared because you know, I’m mad because of what she went through. I’m still scared because of what she is going to have to go through to get her normalcy in her life... It’s going to be a long road, but we got this."
On Wednesday, Nov. 9, crews removed the shipping container that investigators said Brown was held captive in from Kohlhepp's property. The large container was loaded onto an 18-wheeler and hauled away from the crime scene.
