00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,760
In this haunting bonus 
installment of The Dark Mind 

2
00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:10,280
Detective, I share a chilling, 
deeply personal experience. 

3
00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:17,280
I remember vividly standing at 
that field, that killing field 

4
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:24,160
the robber picked in property. 
This was in February 2024 when I

5
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,000
attended with my family a 
candlelight vigil with the 

6
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:31,600
Indigenous community. 
The farm is now just a fenced 

7
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:34,400
off field. 
The air is still thick with 

8
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,160
something heavy and something 
unnatural in the air. 

9
00:00:37,160 --> 00:00:41,440
And what even disturbed me more 
is this how clean it looks. 

10
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:48,520
No signage, no memorial, no 
plaque, nothing to indicate the 

11
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:52,680
horrors, the massacres that went
on there. 

12
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:59,200
And as I began my own journey of
the deep research I did over the

13
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:05,200
year and the emotional 
reflection unfolded into a 

14
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:10,920
disturbing journey through the 
environmental corruption, the 

15
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:16,560
even looking at occult forklore 
and Vancouver's darkest secrets.

16
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,440
This episode reveals a little 
known horror. 

17
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:26,120
The Robert the Picton family 
contaminated topsoil business. 

18
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:31,840
They sold earth mixed with 
industrial waste and human 

19
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:37,360
remains across Metro Vancouver 
into gardens, school grounds, 

20
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:42,520
parks and even playgrounds. 
Not only was the soil 

21
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:48,200
carcinogenic, but in many 
traditions it'd be considered 

22
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:53,720
cursed Earth, the kind used in 
black magic, graveyard rituals, 

23
00:01:53,960 --> 00:02:01,080
and even ancient spells. 
In this episode, you'll explore 

24
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:06,760
the emotional weight and the 
spiritual unease felt while 

25
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,440
standing at the Picton crime 
site. 

26
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:17,200
How soil from Expo 86, a former 
industrial dump, was laced with 

27
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:22,200
lead, cadium, dioxins, benzenes,
and human body parts and then 

28
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:28,640
sold to the public. 
The old cult uses graveyard dirt

29
00:02:28,640 --> 00:02:35,120
in Hoodoo and black magic from 
dune oil to goofer dust. 

30
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:41,720
Cultural legends of cursed 
lands, plague pits and haunted 

31
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,120
battlefields and European 
folklore. 

32
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,960
The Badlands of South Dakota 
soaked in ancient sorrow. 

33
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:54,920
Execution fields. 
Mass graves believed to carry 

34
00:02:54,920 --> 00:03:00,960
murder energy. 
The concept that murder and 

35
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:05,680
trauma can contaminate the 
earth, infect those who walk 

36
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:10,720
upon it, or grow food in it. 
The eerie possibility that this 

37
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:15,080
wasn't just industrial 
negligence, but a ritualistic 

38
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,480
dispersal of energy from a 
killing field. 

39
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:24,520
This episode is a bridge between
true crime and dark folklore, A 

40
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:29,640
story about poison, land and 
curse legacy, and the silent 

41
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:35,360
horror that still clings to the 
soil beneath our feet. 

42
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,960
Even if you don't believe in 
curses, they are powerful people

43
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:46,360
who do, and that alone makes it 
worth understanding. 

44
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:52,040
Thank you very much.

I'm looking forward to meeting

00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:18,760
you in person. 
The Dark Mind Detective let her 

52
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:32,880
story now begin. 
It was a crime scene ground 

53
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:37,800
choked with blood, bone and the 
carcinogenic remains of 

54
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:42,840
Vancouver's darkest secret. 
Some of it came from a pig farm,

55
00:04:43,280 --> 00:04:50,560
the rest a poison legacy of Expo
86 land once celebrated as a 

56
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:57,000
world's fair utopia, later 
revealed as a toxic dump of 

57
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,400
industrial waste. 
Farmers grew food in it, 

58
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:06,680
landscapers paved over it, and 
for years no one questioned what

59
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:10,640
lurked beneath their feet until 
the bodies began to surface. 

60
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:17,400
This is a true story of how 
murder literally contaminated a 

61
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:20,480
city. 
Welcome to the soil of death. 

62
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,640
Before I begin, I would like to 
introduce myself. 

63
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,480
My name is Mark. 
I am an investigative 

64
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,680
journalist, and for the last six
years I have been investigating 

65
00:05:29,840 --> 00:05:34,160
some of the darkest, most 
complex crimes of human history.

66
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:38,840
And it's probably safe to say 
that this is not your typical 

67
00:05:38,840 --> 00:05:44,480
true crime podcast. 
It is instead a journey into an 

68
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:50,320
even darker, more disturbing 
world, one that exists in the 

69
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,760
shadows. 
Much of the information 

70
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:58,640
contained within my podcast 
series will be unfamiliar, and 

71
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:03,960
some of the theories and ideas 
discuss may seem rather bizarre.

72
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:08,760
Perhaps the most controversial 
concept you'll encounter 

73
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:14,200
concerns of phenomena commonly 
referred to as trauma based mind

74
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:18,160
control. 
Although mind control has long 

75
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:22,960
been relegated to that polluted 
wellspring of information known 

76
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:28,080
as conspiracy theory, it has 
never been a polite topic in 

77
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,960
mainstream discourse. 
In the numerous cases I've 

78
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:37,040
researched, from Robert Picton 
to Jeffrey Epstein, trauma 

79
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:41,520
emerges as a reoccurring theme, 
affecting not just the victims 

80
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:46,800
themselves, but creating a 
collective societal trauma. 

81
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:52,720
I experienced this first hand as
a child in the 1980s when 

82
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:58,360
newspapers, radios, television 
reported nonstop about child 

83
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:02,440
murders in the community, 
sharing gruesome details of 

84
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:07,160
young boys discovered murdered. 
This became my introduction to 

85
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:11,760
the world of serial killers and 
sensationalistic media coverage 

86
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:15,440
that accompanied them. 
Though I wasn't directly 

87
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:20,120
victimized, these stories 
terrified me and shook me to my 

88
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:24,160
core. 
Trauma in all forms leaves an 

89
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:28,560
indelible impact. 
In this series, The Dark Mind 

90
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:34,320
Detective, I dwell into the 
disturbing nature and depravity 

91
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,600
of both historic and current 
cases. 

92
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:42,200
After spending over a year 
deeply investigating the Robert 

93
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:47,440
Picton case, it became 
increasingly apparent that this 

94
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:52,920
wasn't simply the work of a lone
serial killer, but something 

95
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:56,280
darker, more systemic and 
organized. 

96
00:07:56,400 --> 00:08:01,000
Despite appearing disorganized 
on the surface. 

97
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:06,560
In the series The Dark Mind 
Detective, I dwell into the 

98
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:10,400
disturbing nature. 
I've been researching complex, 

99
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:14,440
troubling cases like Jeffrey 
Epstein since 2007 and the 

100
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:18,080
strange patterns of missing men 
across the United States and 

101
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:22,560
Canada since 2008. 
Having studied over 150 serial 

102
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,920
killer cases, I've come to 
recognize that these stories are

103
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:29,840
far more complex than mainstream
media portrays. 

104
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:34,880
There are typically more people 
involved and more layers to 

105
00:08:34,919 --> 00:08:38,360
uncover. 
This podcast examines the 

106
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,600
various aspects and stages of 
these cases. 

107
00:08:42,159 --> 00:08:45,800
The people who conspire, 
sometimes on the dark web. 

108
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:50,440
The networks targeting victims 
of all ages, the young, the old,

109
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:52,760
they have been repeatedly 
exposed. 

110
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,640
The gathering places where 
predators commit dark and 

111
00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:00,000
disturbing crimes. 
Some cases have a cult like 

112
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:05,600
aspects, others religious 
undertones, while some are just 

113
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:09,680
purely deviant. 
A disturbing pattern emerges 

114
00:09:09,680 --> 00:09:15,240
where government, intelligent 
agencies, organized crime cults,

115
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:19,560
and religious institutions 
sometimes interlock to commit 

116
00:09:19,560 --> 00:09:23,600
terrible acts in the shadows. 
The goal of The Dark Mind 

117
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:28,480
Detective is to illustrate that 
there's much more to these 

118
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:34,320
stories than meets the eye. 
For the victims who can no 

119
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,800
longer speak for themselves, 
this podcast offers an 

120
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,240
opportunity to become a voice 
for the voiceless. 

121
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:46,400
Even though if you don't believe
in the concepts like black magic

122
00:09:46,560 --> 00:09:50,320
or the old cult, there are 
plenty of people out there who 

123
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:54,680
do, and you'd be probably 
surprised by who some of them 

124
00:09:54,680 --> 00:09:58,200
are. 
In fact, many take these beliefs

125
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:02,760
extremely seriously. 
In this podcast, we are going to

126
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,720
explore some very dark and 
shadowy subject matter. 

127
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:11,000
You might think some of it 
sounds ridiculous and 

128
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:15,760
superstitious or like something 
out of a conspiracy theory, and 

129
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:19,280
that's fine. 
I'm not here to convince you to 

130
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:23,840
believe anything. 
What I want to highlight is that

131
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:29,400
they are people, powerful, 
serious people who treat these 

132
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:33,480
ideas as very real, and that 
alone makes it worth 

133
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,520
understanding. 
I've been thinking a lot about 

134
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:38,760
the soil from the Picton Pig 
farm. 

135
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:43,720
It was very contaminated, not 
just from the blood and bones 

136
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:47,160
and the human remains scattered 
around the property from the 

137
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:52,080
murders and slaughtering, but 
also from the carcinogenic soil 

138
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:55,960
trucked in from the Expo 86 
site. 

139
00:10:56,040 --> 00:11:00,680
The Pickton brothers started a 
topsoil business selling this 

140
00:11:00,680 --> 00:11:05,240
contaminated dirt across Metro 
Vancouver, The parks, the school

141
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,560
district, the landscapers, the 
farmers. 

142
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:11,560
Kids played soccer on it, people
grew vegetables on it and raised

143
00:11:11,560 --> 00:11:15,200
livestock on it. 
In a practical, physical sense, 

144
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:19,720
this was already evil soil, 
spreading sickness, respiratory 

145
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,160
problems, and possibly even 
cancer. 

146
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:27,600
The former Expo 86 site in 
Vancouver, Canada, experienced 

147
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:31,560
soil contamination from decades 
of industrial use. 

148
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:37,640
Industrial sites like those at 
Expo 86 often contained 

149
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:42,160
hazardous chemicals that pose 
serious risk to human health and

150
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:47,520
the environment. 
Heavy metals lead, hadium linked

151
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:52,000
to kidney damage, cardiovascular
disease, and even cancers. 

152
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:56,440
Lung and prostate hexavalent 
chronium unknown. 

153
00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:02,200
Human carcinogen primarily 
causing respiratory cancers. 

154
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,800
Nickel. 
Copper potential Carcinogenic at

155
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:09,960
high levels and nickel is 
associated with lung and nasal 

156
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:15,600
cancers. 
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons

157
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:21,240
by products of fossil fuel 
combustions linked to skin, 

158
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:27,160
lung, and bladder cancers. 
Dioxins persistent industrial 

159
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:32,280
pollutants that cause cancer, 
reproductive harm and immune 

160
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:37,400
suppression. 
Benzene vinyl chloride, a 

161
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:43,000
volatile organic compound tied 
to leukemia and liver cancer. 

162
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:49,000
Direct exposure, skin contact 
contaminated dust can cause 

163
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:54,200
acute on nasal, respiratory 
issue and chronic conditions 

164
00:12:54,560 --> 00:13:00,280
cancer, neurological damage 
ingestion, accidental soil 

165
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:05,200
consumption by children or the 
use of contaminated groundwater 

166
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,560
increases the risk of organ 
damage in cancer. 

167
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:14,920
The most vulnerable group are 
children face higher risk due to

168
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:20,320
frequent hand to mouth behavior.
How many people got sick? 

169
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:26,240
How many people became I'll and 
died of cancer and respiratory 

170
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:30,600
conditions and other diseases 
after coming into contact with 

171
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:34,720
this poisonous soil, which they 
trucked in from a highly 

172
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:38,760
contaminated location and then 
sold for a profit? 

173
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:43,120
The Picton family, who profited 
from the sale of toxic soil and 

174
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:47,480
sold it throughout the city, is 
an example of how this pattern 

175
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:52,440
reflects larger environmental 
injustices, where communities 

176
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:57,000
suffer the most from industrial 
pollution while the corporate 

177
00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:00,320
and government actors avoid 
accountability. 

178
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:04,120
But then I start to think about 
something else I learned from 

179
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:09,160
the occult circles, how 
graveyard soil is prized in 

180
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:14,240
black magic, and witches and 
practitioners of dark arts use 

181
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:19,640
it to create things like doom 
oil, a substance meant to curse 

182
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:25,480
or harm others. 
Now imagine, as a thought 

183
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:32,720
exercise, this soil, the soil 
from a literal killing field. 

184
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:38,920
The Crown prosecutors even 
called it that, being annoyingly

185
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:44,440
spread across a city. 
From an old cult perspective, 

186
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:49,200
it's not just dirty soil, it's 
cursed earth. 

187
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:54,960
Let's dig deeper. 
How historically, soil from 

188
00:14:54,960 --> 00:15:00,360
graveyards, battlefields, or 
places of death has been used in

189
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:06,520
black magic practices? 
How in certain belief systems, 

190
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:15,200
contaminated or cursed earth was
consciously spread to sow chaos,

191
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:21,120
illness, or misfortune. 
From a occult and a dark 

192
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,720
psychology point of view, this 
fits. 

193
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:27,280
The picked and farm wasn't just 
a crime scene, it was a 

194
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:34,080
graveyard, and that soil carried
the energy of death far beyond 

195
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:37,240
its borders. 
There are things in our world, 

196
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:40,840
the natural world, that we take 
for granted. 

197
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,280
Rain. 
If you live somewhere where I 

198
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:47,920
do, rain is common. 
You don't even think twice about

199
00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:51,360
it. 
Seasons 2, Summer, spring, fall,

200
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:54,920
winter. 
They just happen, and we move 

201
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:56,960
through them without a second 
thought. 

202
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:02,000
But there's something even more 
fundamental to life, something 

203
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:07,160
so basic, so essential, that 
most of us barely ever notice 

204
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:08,400
it. 
Soil. 

205
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:10,320
Dirt. 
Think about it. 

206
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:14,600
How many lives have been lost 
over a piece of soil? 

207
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:17,680
How many wars have been fought 
over it? 

208
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:21,720
Soil is at the heart of human 
survival. 

209
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,360
It feeds us. 
It sustains us. 

210
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:28,160
It gives us a place to build our
homes and raise our animals and 

211
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,560
grow our food. 
Soil is life. 

212
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,680
It is the lifeblood of the 
planet. 

213
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:37,480
But like everything else, it 
exists on a spectrum. 

214
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:43,360
If you put soil under a 
microscope, you'll see an entire

215
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:47,920
world hidden inside it. 
A living, invisible ecosystem 

216
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:51,920
that keeps everything above 
ground alive. 

217
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:57,400
Now imagine if that soil became 
corrupted. 

218
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:01,240
Graveyard soil in occult 
conditions. 

219
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:06,280
In witchcraft or Hulu. 
Graveyard dirt is often used in 

220
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:11,319
spells, particularly for curses,
protections, or spirit 

221
00:17:11,319 --> 00:17:17,040
communication. 
Doom oil or similar formulas 

222
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:22,200
like goofer dust is used to hex 
or harm someone. 

223
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:28,200
It's often contains graveyard 
dirt, sulfur, snakeskin, and 

224
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:34,280
other symbolic ingredients. 
The belief system is the soil 

225
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,880
absorbs energy, especially from 
the dead. 

226
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:44,640
So soil so dirt from a violent, 
tragic place would be 

227
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:50,160
particularly powerful. 
Cursed or tainted soil and 

228
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:55,840
folklore and many cultures. 
Land where blood has been 

229
00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,560
spilled is believed to be 
cursed. 

230
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:04,440
Battlefields, plague pits, 
execution sites and Slavic 

231
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:08,960
European folklore. 
Land that has seen murder or 

232
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:13,560
improper burial is often haunted
or spiritually toxic. 

233
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:20,000
Medieval times cursed field were
linked to blight, livestock, 

234
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:27,360
sickness and even human illness.
The concept of murder energy 

235
00:18:27,360 --> 00:18:31,120
contaminating a place is common 
in dark psychology. 

236
00:18:31,120 --> 00:18:36,560
Crime scenes often effects 
people psychologically even 

237
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:40,680
years later. 
If people unknowingly consume 

238
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:45,160
the soil through food or 
inhalation, they might 

239
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:50,160
experience physical illness, 
reinforcing the belief in its 

240
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:55,920
evil nature. 
The concept of landscaping soil 

241
00:18:55,920 --> 00:19:00,080
from a crime scene and spreading
across Vancouver is eerily 

242
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:06,200
similar how cursed relics or 
objects spread misfortune. 

243
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:11,400
In real cases where land was 
poison due to war crime, people 

244
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:15,960
reported strange illnesses or 
psychological distraction. 

245
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:20,640
You just heard how death seeped 
into the soil in Part 2. 

246
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,080
In our second part we will go 
deeper. 

247
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:28,800
What if the victims but that 
foul pig farm weren't just 

248
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:33,000
buried, but they were processed,
rendered and unknowingly 

249
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,920
consumed by the public? 
And lipstick and pet food and 

250
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:41,400
everyday meals will uncover the 
truth about the rendering plant 

251
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:47,680
and how human remains have been 
turned into products used across

252
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:51,400
the country. 
Makes you think this wasn't just

253
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,080
about slaughter. 
This was about ritual, about the

254
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,360
energy. 
And Part 2, we'll also explored 

255
00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:02,360
ancient cursed lands, from the 
Badlands of South Dakota to mass

256
00:20:02,360 --> 00:20:07,080
graves in Europe. 
And how old cult traditions have

257
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:13,280
long used death, flesh and soil 
for spiritual domination, 

258
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,760
satanic rituals, and graveyard 
magic. 

259
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:22,920
And that pig farm might have 
been more than just a killing 

260
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:26,320
field. 
Maybe a temple of industrial 

261
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:31,320
sacrifice.

00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,960
detective. 
Facebook, I go by Vancouver true

271
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,480
Crime and it's the best way to 
get in touch initially. 

272
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:28,960
Once we're connected, I'll send 
you over details where we can 

273
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:33,160
communicate directly. 
Announcing starting next week, 

274
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:37,080
I'm very excited to be launching
my fundraiser to support my 

275
00:21:37,120 --> 00:21:40,960
upcoming national speaking tour 
across Canada and the United 

276
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:46,280
States. 
This tour is more about just 

277
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:48,440
telling stories. 
It's about confronting 

278
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,960
uncomfortable truths and 
demanding accountability and 

279
00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:57,240
giving a voice to the voiceless.
In this series of my fundraiser,

280
00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:02,240
I'll be releasing my full 20 
part series of the Robert Picton

281
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:06,120
case where I look at it from 
every conceivable angle. 

282
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:13,240
Examine archetypes and all the 
unsettling different aspects of 

283
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:18,040
this terrible crime. 
I'll also be releasing my 

284
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:24,840
research on Jeffrey Epstein 
strange clusters of missing men 

285
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:30,080
throughout North America 
Vancouver, BC Austin, TX 

286
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:36,160
Chicago, IL upstate New York. 
I'll also be releasing my 

287
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:41,560
research on the very unsettling 
work of Dave McGowan, Program to

288
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:45,960
Kill, where we examine all the 
things that we thought we knew 

289
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,840
about the serial killer cases 
and look at it from angles and 

290
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:53,600
aspects that you've never seen 
before and much, much more. 

291
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,680
I'm looking forward to meeting 
you, speaking with you and 

292
00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,640
sharing these stories and 
hearing your stories. 

293
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:04,400
This tour is more than just 
about telling stories. 

294
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,600
It's about confronting 
uncomfortable truths, demanding 

295
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:12,440
accountability, giving a voice 
to the voice voiceless. 

296
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,240
And if you want to be part of 
this movement, whether through 

297
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:21,320
donations, collaborations, or 
simply helping spread the word, 

298
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,200
I'll be honored to have your 
support. 

299
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:27,480
If you're a podcaster or 
journalist looking to go deeper 

300
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,120
into the darkness, I'll be 
thrilled to join you for an 

301
00:23:30,120 --> 00:23:33,440
interview. 
Let's make it happen by Mark, 

302
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:35,840
and this is the Dark Mind 
detective. 

303
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:40,600
Stay aware, stay awake, and 
never stop asking questions. 

304
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:47,600
And before we continue to the 
next chapter in the Picton case,

305
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,840
I'll be taking a brief but 
important detour to share 

306
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:55,800
something deeply personal and 
unbelievably powerful. 

307
00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:03,920
Next week I'll be releasing a 
super episode featuring my close

308
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:07,600
friend and long time 
collaborator David Vela, a 

309
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:12,400
former mafia hitman who's now 
facing the final chapter of his 

310
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:16,640
life of terminal cancer. 
Over the past year, Dave and I 

311
00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:19,520
have recorded some raw, 
unfiltered conversations. 

312
00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:24,640
These are secrets he carried for
decades, many of them most 

313
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:26,240
people would just take to the 
grave. 

314
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:30,880
We'll be releasing one last 
episode together and this will 

315
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:34,680
be our one of the most and he 
told me don't drop this one 

316
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,600
until I'm gone. 
I don't want the cops knocking 

317
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:43,240
at my hospital door. 
I'll be be putting together all 

318
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:46,320
of the episodes that we've done 
together in one big super 

319
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:50,560
episodes and I'll be releasing 
that after this episode. 

320
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:57,200

00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:02,400

324
00:25:10,360 --> 00:25:13,240
