    Vigilantes in California lynch two suspected murderers.

    A mob of people in San Jose, California, storm the jail where Thomas Thurmond and John Holmes are being held as suspects in the kidnapping and murder of Brooke Hart, the 22-year-old son of a local storeowner. The mob of angry citizens proceeded to lynch the accused men and then pose them for pictures.

    On November 9, Brooke Hart was abducted by men in his own Studebaker. His family received a $40,000 ransom demand and, soon after, Hart’s wallet was found on a tanker ship in a nearby bay. The investigative trail led to Holmes and Thurmond, who implicated each other in separate confessions. Both acknowledged, though, that Hart had been pistol-whipped and then thrown off the San Mateo Bridge.

    After Hart’s body washed ashore on November 25, a vigilante mob began to form. Newspapers reported the possibility of a lynching and local radio stations broadcast the plan. Not only did Governor James Rolph reject the National Guard’s offer to send assistance, he reportedly said he would pardon those involved in the lynching.

    On November 26, the angry mob converged at the jail and beat the guards, using a battering ram to break into the cells. Thurmond and Holmes were dragged out and hanged from large trees in a nearby park.

    The public seemed to welcome the gruesome act of vigilante violence. After the incident, pieces of the lynching ropes were sold to the public. Though the San Jose News declined to publish pictures of the lynching, it condoned the act in an editorial. Seventeen-year-old Anthony Cataldi bragged that he had been the leader of the mob but he was not held accountable for his participation. At Stanford University, a professor asked his students to stand and applaud the lynching. Perhaps most disturbing, Governor Rolph publicly praised the mob. “The best lesson ever given the country,” said Governor Rolph. “I would like to parole all kidnappers in San Quentin to the fine, patriotic citizens of San Jose.”

  • WHY PREPAREDNESS MATTERS

    Before you start collecting gear and stacking food, you need to understand why preparedness matters. Most people wait until things fall apart. They wait until the shelves are empty, the power is gone, or the government announces an emergency. By then it is already too late. Preparedness is built slowly. It is built before the crisis. That is what separates survivors from victims.

    Emergencies do not schedule themselves. They do not warn you. They do not give you time to get ready. A crisis hits and whatever you have in your home at that moment is what you are working with. That is why prepping is not fear. It is responsibility.

    What Emergencies You Should Prepare For
    Some people think prepping only means preparing for world war or total collapse. The truth is that most emergencies are smaller and more common. Power outages. Storms. Cyberattacks. Water contamination. Supply chain shortages. Job loss. Medical emergencies. All of these situations can hit a family with zero warning. When you take preparedness seriously, you stop depending on luck. You control your situation no matter what happens.

    How Fast Things Collapse
    People assume society collapses slowly. It usually collapses fast. One announcement can empty every grocery store in your city in a few hours. Panic spreads. People rush for food, water, and fuel. Security breaks down. You have seen this during pandemics, storms, earthquakes, and even one bad news headline. Preparedness gives you a buffer. While everyone else is scrambling, you are calm because you already have what you need.

    Your First Priorities
    When you begin prepping, focus on food, water, and medical supplies. These are your foundation. If you get these three areas right, you can handle ninety percent of emergencies. Food keeps you alive. Water keeps your body functioning and allows you to cook and clean. Medical supplies prevent small injuries from turning into infections or emergencies.

    Momentum Even If You Feel Behind
    A lot of people feel like they started too late. They think everyone else is more prepared. That is not true. Most people have nothing. If you start today and stay consistent, you will pass ninety percent of society in a few weeks. Add a little food and water every week. Learn one new skill every few days. Fix one weakness at a time. Preparedness is built with small steps. If you keep moving forward, you will be ready when it matters.

    Preparedness is not about living in fear. It is about taking care of your family when the world around you becomes unpredictable. This is the foundation. Everything else in this course builds on what you learned here.

  • She Went to the Laundromat Alone — Then a Man Followed Her Out, and She Was Never Seen Alive Again
    Corrine Perry vanished in 1983 on a quiet Sunday in Creston, Iowa

    On an April evening in 1983, 17-year-old Corinne Perry left home to do laundry in Creston, Iowa. She never returned. Her neatly-folded clothes were found in her car; her body was discovered over a year later.

    The case remains unsolved.

    It was a quiet Sunday when Corinne, a high school senior known for her bright smile and passion for theater, walked out the door for a routine chore. She was headed to the Highlander Laundromat just a few blocks away, a familiar errand in the small southwest Iowa town where she lived with her mother and sister.

    But what began as an ordinary evening would soon become one of the region's most haunting cold cases.

    According to reporting by NBC News, Corinne's car was found the next day outside the laundromat, her clothes clean and folded inside. But the teen was gone.

    Police initially suspected that she had run away, an assumption that delayed what would later become a full-scale investigation.

    Witnesses later told authorities that Corinne left between 8:30 p.m. and 9 p.m. and that a man walked out behind her. They described seeing her talking to a man with glasses and brown hair, believed to be in his 20s or 30s. But that man was never identified.

    Her sister, Letitia Perry, has spent decades urging authorities and the public not to forget about Corinne.
    "I know something was wrong immediately," she told NBC News. "My sister wouldn't just leave."

    Two weeks after Corinne vanished, her purse was found miles away on a bridge, undisturbed, with her glasses, makeup and personal belongings still inside. For more than a year, the Perry family waited in agony for answers.

    Then, on November 3, 1984, hunters stumbled upon a shallow grave, roughly six miles from Creston and near where Corinne's purse had been recovered. Inside were human remains later confirmed to be Corinne's

    The remains, just bones, had to be identified using dental records, per the Associated Press. Due to the condition of the body, a cause of death could not be determined.

    The Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation (DCI) reopened the case in 2009, hoping that advancements in forensic technology might finally lead to a break in the case. But so far, no suspects have ever been named publicly, and no arrests have been made.

    Letitia believes someone in the community knows what happened -- and may have even spoken with Corinne that night. Now in her 50s, Letitia says she won't give up until there are answers.

    “At the 30-year mark of her death, I sort of quit having expectations,” Letitia told NBC. “But I can’t give up. She was my little sister and I’m not going to give up.”

    The case remains open. The Iowa DCI encourages anyone with information to call (515) 725-6010 or submit an anonymous tip through their website.

  • Why cats were in WWI trenches.

    The Great War was such a difficult time, some soldiers sought out the assistance and comfort of four-legged friends — including cats, who were used in the trenches to boost morale. Dogs, homing pigeons, foxes, goats, lion cubs, and even raccoons also served their countries as pets and mascots throughout the “war to end all wars,” and some even carried out official duties. Cats did a bit of both: Though most kitties simply kept their compatriots in good spirits by providing them with loyal companionship (and fending off rats), some also used their heightened sense of atmospheric pressure to detect bombs in advance.

    Not all feline soldiers’ deeds have gone unnoticed. Among the 75 animals who have received the PDSA Dickin Medal, which was established in 1943 to honor the military service of animals, is a cat named Simon. He served aboard the HMS Amethyst from 1948 to 1949 and received the medal for “disposing of many rats though wounded by shell blast. Throughout the incident his behavior was of the highest order, although the blast was capable of making a hole over a foot in diameter in a steel plate.” In a newsreel of the ship returning home, Simon is rightly referred to as “a hero in his own right.”

    Did you know?

    Calico cats are considered good luck.
    That’s the reason maneki-neko are so often depicted as calicos. The “beckoning cat” figurines found throughout Japan and at Japanese and Chinese establishments around the world are intended as tokens of good fortune, with one of their paws raised high in a waving motion. This dates back to the tradition of Japanese sailors traveling with calicos to bring about safe passage — the multicolored cats were believed to be able to chase away storms and ancestral ghosts. In the United States and England, meanwhile, male calicos are considered especially lucky because of their rarity.
