  John Walker was a Miami undercover narcotics agent in the 1970s. Ten years later, he was in prison for smuggling 12,000 pounds of marijuana. In prison, he connected with a South American drug lord who was still running the family operation from inside the federal pen. Within months of being paroled, John began smuggling again—this time uncut Colombian cocaine. And this time, he put everything on the line: his freedom, his family and, ultimately, his life.

  They were nurses, grandmothers, wives—women who seemed incapable of harm. But behind charming smiles and gentle facades lurked some of history's most chilling killers. 
  In Beauty Turned Deadly, narrator Davidson David takes you deep into twelve shocking true crime stories that will keep you listening long into the night. These aren't the famous cases everyone knows. These are the forgotten monsters, the women who poisoned with patience, strangled with precision, and killed without remorse. 
  From Bertha Gifford, the Missouri farmwife who poisoned seventeen neighbors with arsenic-laced meals, to Juana Barraza, the Mexican wrestler who murdered elderly women while hiding in plain sight—each story reveals the disturbing psychology behind female serial killers who shattered every expectation of what evil looks like. 
  You'll discover the Victorian baby farmer who threw infants into the Thames River, the Chicago fortune teller who scheduled deaths like appointments, and the Australian grandmother who served poison in teacups. These women used society's trust against their victims, exploiting the belief that mothers, caregivers, and sweet old ladies could never be capable of murder. 
  Davidson David's narration brings each case to life with gripping detail, psychological depth, and the perfect balance of horror and humanity. Every chapter reads like a thriller, but these nightmares were real. 
  Perfect for fans of dark true crime audiobooks, murder mysteries, and anyone fascinated by the hidden side of criminal history. This collection exposes the terrifying truth: evil doesn't always look like a monster. Sometimes it looks like the woman next door. 
  Warning: Contains mature themes including violence, murder, and psychological abuse. Listener discretion advised.

  AUSCHWITZ CHILDREN AND MENGELE...

  In the name of humanity, that was the explanation of Dr. Claus Karl Schilling for the execution of malaria experiments on 1,200 inmates of the Dachau concentration camp during the Second World War. The reputable Schilling had come to Dachau with the personal permission of the Reichsführer-SS Heinrich Himmler in 1942 because he could use the prisoners as research subjects without the restriction of obtaining their consent. Schilling was not an exception.  
  Many Nazi doctors seized the unique opportunity to execute human experiments without legal and ethical restrictions during the war. The SS and the Wehrmacht either initiated or supported the research of the Nazi doctors. The central question that puzzled jurists and scientists is how these doctors, who were educated to heal people, could execute human experiments and deliberately harm and even kill people. To some scientists, their acts stand out as ‘exemplars of evil.’ This judgment is based on the fact that prisoners did not give their informed consent, the cruel and sometimes sadistic character of the experiments, and because never before in medical experiments was the death of the research subjects a central element of the research design. Many people think that ‘science went mad’ in the Third Reich and that Nazi doctors who committed these crimes were pseudo-scientists, sadists, and even monsters. However, thinking these perpetrators were madmen or monsters is a false explanation.  
  It is confronting to know that physicians belonging to the most advanced medical community in the world at the time, who had sworn to ‘do no harm, ' could commit these crimes. 
  On this trail, Dr. Josef Mengele’s pseudo-scientific research at the Auschwitz concentration camp during World War II led to immeasurable suffering among the camp’s children.
