The house with the red-brick exterior, huge old-growth maple, and sprawling back patio on Castle Frank Crescent in Toronto’s pricy Rosedale neighborhood seemed like the perfect symbol of generational wealth and respectability. As Malcolm Johnston reports for Toronto Life, the occupants, Chakib Mansouri and Majdouline Alouah, might have appeared to be upwardly mobile, driving fancy cars and “dripping” with designer couture. In reality, they funded all their luxuries with a life of crime.
By the fall of 2023, Mansouri and Alouah were so engrossed in their lives of leisure that neither picked up on the vehicles tailing them, day after day. Nor did they notice the plainclothes officers posted up on street corners, in condo lobbies and at cafés, collecting evidence that would expose the couple’s part in an audacious scam that stole more than $185 million from victims in Toronto, across Canada and around the world.
A 108-year-old woman was sexually assaulted and robbed in the French city of Lyon on Aug. 7, 2026, in the Villeurbanne suburb of the city.
Around 10:30 a.m., a home caregiver arrived at the 108-year-old woman’s apartment to provide care. The caregiver found the elderly woman partially naked, in a state of shock, and sitting on her sofa. The victim was unable to explain what had happened. Reports note that, given her age and condition, she was a priori not able to undress herself alone.
Emergency services were alerted about the woman’s condition. She was taken to the hospital for examination and medical analyses, according to French news outlet CNews.
Investigators determined that a burglary had taken place. Several individuals allegedly forced open a kitchen window to enter the apartment. Several rooms were searched and ransacked, and bottles of perfume were stolen.
The Lyon prosecutor’s office opened an investigation for burglary by breaking and entering and sexual assault. The sexual assault qualification was retained specifically “given her state of nudity at the time of discovery.” No other details were provided about the woman’s condition.
There have been no announced arrests or identifications of suspects, who remain on the run.
No specific descriptions of the perpetrators, additional stolen items, forensic results, or precise circumstances of the undressing beyond the initial findings have been made public. The investigation is ongoing.
A police union spokesperson, Benjamin Camboulives of Alternative Police (CFDT), commented publicly that “the delinquents no longer have any limits,” but this added no new factual information about the case itself.
A shocking new case has come to light, which involves three Syrians gang raping a 10-year-old girl, with the men also urinating on her and smearing her with feces. Incredibly, there are no public news reports about this incident. The case was only revealed due to prominent national victim advocate Michael Kyrath, who disclosed he is actively working with the victim as part of his victim outreach efforts.
Kyrath described the details of the case during an appearance on ServusTV during a debate with a number of speakers on immigration, crime, and politics. which was published yesterday,
3 Syrians gang raped and urinated on a 10-year-old girl in Germany.
"The youngest victim I am supporting was raped over several hours by three Syrians. They urinated on her, smeared her with feces, beat her, and kicked her. This girl is 10 years old. 10 years old!" said… https://t.co/1gMXJ9ZlJYpic.twitter.com/FKYbxKdbTu
“We are currently caring for over 1,000 victim families. We are currently supporting 36 young women who have become victims of sexual violence, including so-called gang rapes, which didn’t exist here at all 10 or 15 years ago. The youngest victim I am supporting was raped over several hours by three Syrians. They urinated on her, smeared her with feces, beat her, and kicked her. This girl is 10 years old. 10 years old!” said Michael Kyrath during his appearance.
He continues by saying: “These perpetrators cannot be rehabilitated through therapy, if only because the training of our therapists is tailored to Central European socialization… That means we aren’t even capable of rehabilitating these people.”
There is no public record of this case, which may have to do with the age of the victim. However, similar cases have also come to light in recent years, including the recent trial involving two Iraqis who raped a 7-year-old child in Essen. In that case as well, there was extremely limited coverage, with the case only coming to light once the trial started, with only one news outlet reporting on the details with an incredibly short news clip.
It raises the question of how many cases are not being publicized by the news media regarding young victims being raped in Germany by immigrants. While the issue of foreigners raping Europeans has proven politically explosive, children being raped is a step even further. With each such case coming to light, it could shift public sentiment even further towards the Alternative for Germany (AfD), which may also be a political factor regarding why these cases are being suppressed.
Kyrath’s own daughter, 17-year-old Ann-Marie, was stabbed to death dozens of times by a Palestinian migrant, along with her 19-year-old boyfriend Danny. Kyrath now works as a tireless advocate for families and victims of migrant violence, making frequent appearances on debate panels on major television networks.
During the interview, he also discussed the role of immigration and crime in the country.
“It’s always the same perpetrator profile, it’s almost always the same weapon, it’s virtually the same sequence of events, it’s the same motives, and for 11 years, it’s been the same empty phrases from responsible politicians that we’ve been hearing ever since—that it’s not that bad, you have to differentiate, you have to be careful, we must not play into the hands of the right, and all the other things we hear. People are dying every day, children are dying every day. And here we are, debating right versus left,” he said.
He further addressed the state of Germany and the so-called “fight against the right,” a theme that dominates the public media networks.
“We can go on, we can completely open up this topic. If you come to Germany: our schools are crumbling, the healthcare system is broken, internal security is eroded, trains don’t run on time, planes don’t run on time. But the main thing is: the fight against the right. Do you think any citizen whose children are beaten up at school because they eat pork cares about the fight against the right, or the right and the left? That doesn’t interest any citizen anymore. I am terribly sorry, but they are far removed from reality and what citizens see out there.”
Kyrath notes that in his work as a master craftsman, every step is documented and regulated, and yet, migration involving hundreds of thousands of foreigners remains a black hole for German authorities, who often do not know which country these individuals are from, or even the real name or birth date of tens of thousands of migrants.
“We don’t know how many illegal people are in this country, where they are, what their goals are, what their views are, or if they are willing to respect our way of life. Instead, we put them in container villages, give them a few euros every month, and call that successful integration. That is a completely false example from certain people living in a prosperity-decayed bubble, applauding themselves for how great they are. In reality, that has nothing to do with humanity or Christianity,” he said.
Claims that migrants are a boon to the job market are also sharply squashed by Kyrath.
“And here we come to the topic of skilled workers, as you mentioned earlier. As a master craftsman, I can tell you what requirements we have to meet today just to hire or employ someone, with all the documentation duties. I am terribly sorry, but 90 percent of the people coming here cannot be employed by us because we are simply not allowed to, because they don’t meet the requirements. They don’t have the schooling, the training, or the security checks,” he stated.
He even touched on a growing theme that Remix News has published on extensively, which is the fact that artificial intelligence and automation are in the process of rendering mass immigration pointless. As Asia increasingly shows, migration is not necessary for successful economies. In fact, it may even be an impediment, as cheap labor hinders capital investment in automation. Countries like South Korea, Japan, and China — all nearly zero immigration countries — are pulling ahead of Europe in countless areas, including renewable energy, AI, robotics, and the automotive sector, all while embracing science over ideology.
While addressing a point made about Spain and its inability to integrate migrants into the workforce and education system, Kyrath stated: “That also touches on a philosophical question: what will things look like in 10 to 15 years? With AI-supported technology, do we even need humans for these jobs in the future? Today, you don’t need a doctor when you have an Apple Watch, you don’t need taxi drivers, garbage collectors, or even teachers. Where are all these people supposed to go in 10 to 15 years? How will they be employed?”
Regarding the murder of his daughter Ann-Marie, the host said: “The perpetrator had multiple previous convictions, had stabbed another man in the neck the year before, had no right of residence, and moved from state to state. Have you received any answers from politicians regarding how such a person was still in the country?”
To which Kyrath answered, “On a state level, politicians listened to us and took our concerns seriously. But at the federal level, very few engage with the topic. We invited the Federal President, the Chancellor, and all 16 state premiers to an event in Frankfurt, and we received unanimous rejections, claiming they couldn’t attend every small association event.”
When Jessica Black was 16 years old, she told a story to North Carolina police detectives that helped convict five friends of murder. Decades later, she’s still trying to correct the record. Matthew Bremner’s feature for Financial Times is a brisk tick-tock of efforts by Black and her incarcerated friends to overturn criminal convictions they claim were built on disturbing intimidation tactics.
The investigators do not accept these firm denials. To them, they seem likely to be the initial stories of a group of boys who know more than they are saying. As officers move in and out of interview rooms, carrying information from one interrogation to the next, the pressure intensifies. They tell the teenagers that their friends are already telling their side of it, that they should too. Under North Carolina law in 2002, police are permitted to exaggerate, even to suggest they have evidence they do not possess. There is no rule requiring a parent or other adult to be present while 14- and 15-year-olds are questioned. For most of their time in these rooms, the five boys are alone. When I interviewed him in late 2025, Tolliver told me that a detective asked him to hold out his arm. “That’s the vein,” he told him. “This is where the lethal injection would go.”
In the late 18th century, no man in Edinburgh seemed more respectable than William Brodie. By day, he was a successful cabinetmaker, a member of the city council, and a deacon of the Incorporation of Wrights and Masons, one of the most prestigious tradesmen's guilds in Scotland. But by night, Brodie led a secret life as a burglar and thief, moving through the dark streets of the city with the same keys and skills that had earned him the trust of its wealthiest citizens.
His extraordinary double life eventually ended at the gallows. A century later, Brodie’s life inspired one of literature's most famous tales of dual identity: Robert Louis Stevenson's The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
On November 9, 1963, two investigators from France’s Central Office for Counterfeit Currency Control (OCRFM) arrived at the post office on Rue Turgot in Paris’s 9th arrondissement. Five days earlier, a customer had purchased 1,000 francs’ worth of Treasury bonds there using a stack of crisp 100-franc notes bearing the portrait of Napoleon Bonaparte. At first glance, nothing seemed unusual. The notes looked authentic, felt authentic, and even carried convincing watermarks. But they were counterfeit.

When Leslie Buck was discovered dead in her home in 2002, Mystic, Connecticut, went into shock. What had happened to the grade school teacher and who had wanted her to die? For journalist Brenna Ehrlich, this one was personal; Buck had been her teacher in grade one. In her latest for Rolling Stone, Ehrlich returns to Mystic to learn more about who Leslie Buck was and why she was murdered.
And Anna Greene, my second-grade teacher, told me about the poems she found in Leslie’s desk after she died — that she read at the funeral. There’s one about the kids who are different, “who don’t fit,” who “dance to a different drum.” For some reason, that hit me harder than police reports or autopsies. More than the horrors that true-crime often focuses on. I still can’t read it without crying. Maybe because I definitely was one of those kids, or maybe it’s just because it shows that she truly saw her students — all of them. Or maybe it’s a much-needed reminder that Leslie Buck isn’t a story, a case to be solved. She was a person. And she deserves to be remembered.
When Steven Judy was executed for rape and murder in 1981, he was little more to the public than a monster. To Traci and Randy Carr, he was something else: a hero and a protector. After all, he was their foster brother. For The Guardian, Masha Hamilton—who covered the Judy trial as a young reporter more than 45 years ago—returns to Indiana to meet the Carrs, and to take the measure of the hole rent in their lives by Judy’s actions and disappearance.
Her mother has begun appearing again in her sleep: Mary holding her, comforting. Almost as if speaking aloud what had been buried for decades had called her mother back.
“Everyone hated Steve, and we were told we should too,” Traci says. “For a long time, I thought we did something wrong, and I was ashamed. People treated us like we had raised a murderer. It’s still how people remember us. I don’t think Mom ever got to grieve properly. I don’t think any of us did.”
The boundary between historical documentation and morbid fascination is thinner than most people care to admit. While law enforcement agencies often work to preserve the dignity of sites where tragedies occurred, public curiosity frequently draws visitors to the locations of infamous crimes. From quiet suburban homes where cult murders unfolded to remote roads where legendary […]

3 Syrians gang raped and urinated on a 10-year-old girl in Germany.
