S1E5 - The Hello Kitty Murder - This episode focuses on the torture and the subsequent murder of Fan Man Yee. This case took place in Hong Kong. This was kind of a creepy thing I read that the designer of Hello Kitty had to say.  Kind of haunting. Hello Kitty was conceived without a smile. The designer did not think it was necessary because the doll appears happy to some and sad to others. The designer stated, upon the inception of Hello Kitty, "we think she shouldn't be tied to an emotion".  And that is why she doesn't have a mouth. Have y'all ever noticed that Hello Kitty doesn't have a mouth? It's pretty weird... The Hello Kitty murder took place in Hong Kong in the spring of 1999. Fan Man Yee was a brotyhel hostess. She was kidnapped and tortured after stealing a wallet.  She picked the wrong man, the wrongest man, to steal a wallet from. She stole a wallet from one of her frequent customers at the brothel - he was a member of The Triad, the Chinese Mafia. Between April 14th and April 15th, 1999, she'd been held captive for about a month, continuously raped and tortured. Her body was decapitated, and her skull was placed inside of a Hello Kitty mermaid plush doll...

Join us as we explore the horrendous, bizarre case of Daniel LaPlante. This case is a tale of jealousy, delusion, desperation and misplaced affection, resulting in the loss of three innocent lives. LaPlante is also responsible for the intense traumatization of several other victims, in a series of bizarre acts which would sound too farfetched for fiction. It is these acts for which he has gained his infamy, not the actual crimes he committed.
