5
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:21,600
Speaker 1: We'll tease the cases here, then we'll do a deep

6
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:25,800
Speaker 1: dive into the pathology, forensics, and medical mysteries later on

7
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 1: in our normal Mother Knows Death episodes, in articles over

8
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,920
Speaker 1: in the Grossroom, and during our weekly YouTube live bonus

9
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:38,680
Speaker 1: episode exclusively for Grossroom members. If it's dark, disturbing, medically bizarre,

10
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:41,600
Speaker 1: or just too good not to dissect, you'll hear it

11
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 1: first on Monday's Morbid Minute. Let's get started with our

00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:53,519
Speaker 1: big story of the week and what authorities are calling

14
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:02,640
Speaker 1: than one hundred human skeletal remain some which are centuries old,

15
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:07,039
Speaker 1: some with pacemakers still inside, in the Pennsylvania home of

16
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 1: thirty four year old Jonathan Gerlock. Court documents say Gerloc

17
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:15,840
Speaker 1: allegedly spent months breaking into mausoleums and burial vaults at

18
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 1: historic Mount Mariah Cemetery, removing bones and allegedly selling or

19
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 1: hoarding them, and now faces over five hundred charges, including

20
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 1: abuse of a corpse and theft of burial property. We

21
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 1: talked about this a little in our weekly bonus episode

22
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 1: in the Grocery Room on Friday, and we'll do a

23
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 1: deep dive on this case for our high profile death

24
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 1: Dissection article this week. This week, Columbus police have charged

25
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 1: thirty nine year old Michael David McKee, the ex husband

26
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 1: of Monique Tempe, with the fatal shootings of her and

27
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 1: her dentist husband Spencer in their home just after celebrating

28
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:57,559
Speaker 1: their fifth wedding anniversary. Surveillance footage and vehicle tracking linked

29
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 1: McKey to the scene. The couple's young children were found

30
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 1: a live, buto orphaned, and investigators continued probing motives and

31
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 1: new tips. Actor Daniel Stern of Home Alone Fame was

32
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: reportedly cited in California after law enforcement said he solicited

33
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 1: a prostitute. Stern, sixty eight, was not arrested in the case.

34
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 1: In the Golden State, soliciting a prostitute as a misdemeanor,

35
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 1: and violators can face up to six months in jail

36
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: or a one thousand dollars fine. If convicted. Defense attorneys

37
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,919
Speaker 1: in the high profile Lindsay Clancy case argue that there

38
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 1: is a quote real probability she may attempt suicide during

39
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 1: her trial. Lindsay Clancy is a Massachusetts woman at the

40
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 1: center of a highly publicized criminal case involving the deaths

41
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 1: of her three young children in January of twenty twenty three.

42
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 1: At the time, she was a labor and delivery nurse

43
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 1: and a new mother who had been receiving treatment for

44
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 1: severe postpartum mental health issues, including depression and anxiety. Prosecutors

45
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 1: alleged she in intentionally killed the children, while her defense

46
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 1: argues her actions were driven by a profound psychiatric illness

47
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 1: related to postpartum conditions. Earlier this year, we did a

48
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: high profile death dis section on this case in the

49
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 1: Grocery Room, and if you're interested in all of the details,

50
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 1: please check out that article. An eight year old girl

51
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 1: suffered a fractured skull after a rock was hurled at

52
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,359
Speaker 1: her school boss on the New Jersey Turnpike, a frightening

53
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,920
Speaker 1: incident that has parents and lawmakers demanding answers on roadway

54
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: and school transportation safety. A quote mermaid attack unfolded in Louisiana,

55
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 1: when police were called to a private pond after reports

56
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 1: of a naked woman refused to leave the property. According

57
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 1: to authorities, the woman told officers she was trying to

58
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 1: be a mermaid and belonged in the water, appearing disoriented

59
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 1: and disconnected from reality. When an officer attempted to escort

60
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 1: her away from the pond, she allegedly became aggressive and

61
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 1: physically attacked him, leading to her arrest. A thirty five

62
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 1: year old Kentucky woman is facing serious charges after police

63
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: say she used abortion pills to end a pregnancy and

64
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 1: then bury the fetal remains in her backyard in a

65
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 1: Christmas lights box. Investigators alleged she sought medical care and

66
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:24,039
Speaker 1: disclosed what had happened, prompting staff to notify authorities. The

67
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,479
Speaker 1: case has drawn national attention because Kentucky has a near

68
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:32,919
Speaker 1: total abortion ban. California correctional officials are testing VR, or

69
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 1: virtual reality headsets as quote hope machines intended to reduce

70
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 1: violence and help rehabilitation in prisons. Hackers leaked nude photos

71
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:48,040
Speaker 1: from hundreds of Snapchat accounts after a data breach, reigniting

72
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 1: concerns about digital privacy, consent, and platform security. Five severed

73
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,799
Speaker 1: heads were discovered hanging near a popular Ecuador beach amid

74
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 1: escalating gang violence. A bizarre childhood habit reportedly landed someone

75
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 1: in the hospital decades later with a serious infection. I

76
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,839
Speaker 1: do not want to give away too much details, but

77
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 1: we will talk about this on tomorrow's episode. But a

78
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 1: quote Booger wall is involved. A California hospital celebration of

79
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 1: the first baby born in twenty twenty six sparked unexpected controversy,

80
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 1: turning what should have been a feel good milestone into

81
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,719
Speaker 1: juicy drama. We talked about this case a little in

82
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,839
Speaker 1: detail on last week's YouTube live episode in the Grossroom

83
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 1: that you can go back and listen to. Another woman

84
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 1: has gone viral on TikTok after making a terrifying discovery

85
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 1: at the bottom of a non dairy milk cart in

86
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 1: NASA is planning an early return of astronauts from the

87
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,840
Speaker 1: International Space Station after a crew member experienced a medical

88
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:58,600
Speaker 1: issue that required closer monitoring on Earth. While NASA has

89
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:02,040
Speaker 1: not released specific details else the decision itself is significant

90
00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:06,719
Speaker 1: because space missions are carefully choreographed months or years in advance,

91
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 1: and altering return schedules is not taken lightly one can

92
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:15,479
Speaker 1: join twin tragically died during separation surgery after the brother

93
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,840
Speaker 1: had already passed. The story involves a set of twins

94
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:22,839
Speaker 1: who shared vital organs, making surgical separation extremely high risk

95
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 1: from the start. Doctors attempted the procedure in hopes of

96
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,480
Speaker 1: giving at least one child a chance of survival, but

97
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:34,839
Speaker 1: tragically they both died. A woman lost fingers and toes

98
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 1: after a kidney stone led to a severe infection. Reports

99
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,679
Speaker 1: are circulating that some women are getting Brazilian butt lifts

100
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 1: using cadaver tissue, raising serious ethical, medical, and regulatory questions

101
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 1: about the cosmetic surgery industry. A medical journal has published

102
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 1: a case about an esophageal perforation following cocaine use and

103
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 1: intentional inject estion of multiple metallic foreign objects. A lawsuit

104
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: claims a California hospital hid a patient's death for months

105
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 1: after illegally harvesting her organs and discourage the family from

106
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 1: viewing the body, allegations that could have massive implications for

107
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 1: trust in organ donation and healthcare transparency. And that's it

108
