Giulia Tofana was an enigma and in point of fact many contend that she never even existed and that her story is one of lore and folk tales that kept growing more and more elaborate over time. Let;s imagine that the woman, who there is no discernible proof that she ever lived, was everything that we have been told that she was.

Hernandez' case took a long time to go through the courts and honestly there is VERY little out there about him, his crimes and his victims. GBNF on Patreon GBNF on Facebo...

His story spans two countries, two states and a lot of people who lost their lives because they believed in him and trusted his lies. As an added bonus you will also get a history lesson ...
