Can anyone direct me to any online hubs or retail stores that deal in vintage crime scene photos ? There used to be an amazing occult store in Hollywood years back owned by Anton Lavey's son but I know he closed. I have a fairly large collection of wonderful original crime scene photos that came from an estate sale of a former police photographer in Selma, Alabama. Images in the lot were taken from 1969-1977. They are all 8X10 and completely original. For anyone who collects these types of photos or wants to make a coffee table book, they are top notch. The photos contain victims of fatal car wrecks, suicides, murder victims, fatal burn victims, and autopsies. I've attached a small sample below. Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

I recently came across something bout how lynchings were events that sparked sexual free-for-alls in small towns. Women would openly masturbate and participate in gang bangs as part of the lawless mob frenzy that was at play during these "ceremonies." I can understand why this "practice" wasn't talked about - killing another human being was something that one could talk about and share, but sexual impropriety was too shameful during those times of strict moral rectitude to mention in polite company.

Has anyone else ever heard of this phenomenon?

Someone told me that the crime pics are easy to find and that they are very disturbing. I googled it and I just found some crime scene pics in callahans site but not the victims and that stuff. Do you know where can I find them?

The massacre of Jerusalem’s Muslim and Jewish populations by the Crusaders in 1099 during the First Crusade is a stark example of genocide. After breaching the city’s walls, the Crusaders unleashed a campaign of brutal extermination against the inhabitants, aiming to eliminate all non-Christian presence from the city. Contemporary accounts, as well as letters found in the Cairo Geniza written nine months after the event, confirm that the Crusaders "killed everyone in the city," leaving no Muslim or Jewish person alive.

This was not merely an act of war, but a deliberate, systematic effort to annihilate entire communities based solely on their religious identity. The Crusaders slaughtered men, women, and children indiscriminately. Muslims who sought refuge in the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock were massacred without mercy. At the same time, the Jewish population, who had taken shelter in their synagogues, faced similar brutality, with their places of worship set ablaze and all inside killed.

The intention behind these atrocities was clear: to purify the city of Jerusalem by eradicating all non-Christian inhabitants. This genocidal intent is what makes the events of 1099 not just a military conquest, but an attempt to systematically destroy entire communities. The actions of the Crusaders fit the definition of genocide, as they sought to annihilate the Muslim and Jewish populations of the city.

This genocide in Jerusalem left deep scars, both in the region and in the collective memory of the communities affected. It serves as a grim reminder of the dangers of religious intolerance and the devastating consequences of fanaticism when it turns into a weapon of mass extermination. The massacre of 1099 remains one of the darkest chapters in the history of the Crusades, illustrating the catastrophic human cost of attempts to achieve religious domination through violence and genocide.
