I think mine is the story of the two Scandinavians girls who were beheaded alive by jihadists in Morocco.
It's not really a true crime story since it falls more under the category of terrorism. but still. I saw the raw video of the girls being beheaded and it was my first ever gore content and I wasn't prepared. this is the first time I realised that my intrusive thoughts and my anxiety were not based on catastrophic thinking but on a deep subconscious awareness of the kind of horror that goes on in the world. this is the first time I felt respect for the anxious thinker in me.
Another case that I can't forget is the story of Issei Sagawa
