Black Dahlia
On January 15 1947 one of hollywoods biggest mysteries was born. A woman named Betty Betsinger was walking with her infant daughter when she saw what looked to be a store mannequin abandoned in a Los Angeles Park. Upon closer inspection, she realized it was in fact a body that had been horrifically mutilated. This case has become almost a piece of Hollywood folk lore and the killer has never been identified. However, we do know what happened to the poor woman who was left in the park that day. She had been drained of blood and sliced in half at the waist. The corpse had been washed after death and strips had been sliced from her legs and breasts. Her face had been sliced to mimic a hideous grin similar to the Joker in batman. The woman’s intestines had been neatly rolled up and tucked beneath her lower half and the segments of her body were staggered about a foot apart and her limbs had been posed. This case has worked its way into popular culture, sometimes obscuring the vicious and sadistic nature of the murder.
