Not sure where to post this, but this has to be the most interesting/weird-high profile murder/missing person case in a while in the Nordic countries. Swedish journalist travels with well known Danish inventor Peter Madsen on his home-made submarine, reportedly working on an article about him. They go missing, submarine shows up - then abrubtly sinks, Madsen is rescued and the journalist is nowhere to be found.
 
Porn Traffic Took a Major Blow During Eclipse

In addition to Netflix having a temporary drop in viewers during Monday afternoon's solar eclipse, porn site xHamster also saw a lull in traffic, as potential spectators opted to do something that could actually make them go blind instead of just doing something their moms told them would make them go blind when they were 13.

OK, so now they have found the journalist. Part of her, that is. Part of her body was found Monday, today it was confirmed by DNA analysis. The body part was the torso only - and police say it is evident that head and limbs were removed on purpose, and metal was attached to the torso - in other words, the submariner had taken many measures to make sure the body wouldn't be found.

MAdsen has said to the police that she died in an accident. The above indicate that this is bogus, who would dismember the body and sink it in the ocean to hide an accident?

PS: Am I a bit morbid in my sense of humor when I find it a little funny that BBC today feature an article titled "Kim Wall: An exceptional journalist remembered" shortly after she was found dismembered?

More on this case: In the custody hearing today. which was open to media, the submariner claimed that Kim Wall died when a 70kg heavy hatch hit her ... and that he threw her body into the sea in one piece. Wonder who did the dismembering then? King Neptune?
 
Or a member of his sect

Just imagine how wrong it would be, in addition to the unfathomable plethora of layers of wrong this already is, if it were "Sexy Anne Frank".

Someone at my work made this joke. I keep saying the same thing - next year.
 
I'm a bit confused as to why so many celebrities are speaking to the media about the abuse they've suffered - surely the police and their lawyers should be the first people they speak to.
 
They didn't want to destroy their careers by calling the police on powerful industry figures or have to face someone with very expensive lawyers? Very likely if it happened to a young person some time ago when they were just starting out in their career. Plus a lot of sexual assaults don't get reported at the time for psychological reasons, especially if it's not rape. Since a couple of people started talking publicly it's now turned into a movement exposing what may be an ingrained dodgy culture in the entertainment industry.

Re Spacey, I can't decide if he's purely attempting using his sexuality as a defence, or if he's decided it's pointless trying to stay in the closet now.
