peace history, we have met many a serial killer. All right,

(03:18):
that being said, let's talk about the Ripper Crew. Now.
You may have heard of them, you may have not,
but I'm guaranteeing you've never heard of them like this,
So sit back and enjoy.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
I got a little.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Jackfire and coke going on since this is an audio
only episode. I literally look like a serial killer myself.
I look worse than Eileen Warno's. She looks like a
fucking beauty queen compared to me right now. But this
is new mom life and I've just accepted it and
(03:57):
I'm rolling with it. But anyways, the Ripper Crew was
an organized crime group of serial killers, spree killers, mass murderers, cannibals, rapists,
and necrophiles. The group was composed of Robin Gek and
three associates, Edward Spritzer and brothers Andrew and Thomas Cocaralis.
(04:25):
And if I'm not saying their last name's right, who cares?
They can go fuck themselves. So they were suspected in
the mergers of seventeen bodies by beheading, dismembering, disemboweling, and
gouging heart and lungs out or skinning. They were ripping
(04:47):
and running through Illinois in nineteen eighty one and nineteen
eighty two, and I guess they were suspected in an
unrelated fatal shooting of a man in a ra drive
by shooting, which I will be touching on a little
bit more later on. So, according to one of the
(05:10):
detectives who investigated the case, Gek made Manson look like
a boy scout, So I know what you're thinking, or
maybe not but when am I going to reveal the
new moniker for the Ripper Crew. Don't worry, I will
be revealing their new name soon enough. But in order
(05:33):
to appreciate it, we first need to learn a little
bit more about them. Okay, let's start with the ringleader,
Robin Gek born November thirtieth, nineteen fifty three, which is
a damn tragedy considering that's literally my birthday minus the
(05:54):
nineteen fifty three part. And here I thought Sagittarians were
above all this serial kill bullshit. But I mean, I
guess if you're gonna strive to be a Sagittarian serial killer,
he sure set the bar high, so I gotta give
him that. So let's skip the four play and get
(06:16):
right into the bizarre nature of this dude. Okay. Geck's
friends later said that he would talk about breasts the
way college guys talk about sports, lovingly, competitively, and obsessively,
if that tells you anything. But it was actually this
(06:39):
obsession that led him to higher prostitutes who would allow
him to stab their titties with needles, pins, and knives,
and he would then suckle their stabbed up titties while
they bled on some kind of Nosferatu style breastfeeding fetish.
(07:00):
What about the other idiots in the crew, Edward Spritzer
and brothers Andrew and Thomas Cocaralis. Well, I mean, I'm
sure they have some fucked up backstories I could bore
you with, but the important thing to note is that
these guys, they worshiped Get like he was some kind
(07:25):
of fucked up titty Buddha, like he was a higher being,
and they were absolutely obsessed with the guy. So, in
this random or not so random hookup of psychos, Robin
uh was the leader, and it was kind of like
(07:46):
a leader follower dynamic, literally like Charles Manson, you know.
And they've been compared to Charles Manson and the Manson family,
but you know, less CIA funding, but still more than
likely programmed to kill. We will get into that more later.
(08:08):
But they were the dollar store version of the Manson family.
You might even call them the family Dollar And no,
that's not their new Moniker. But so the crew started
hanging out in Get's attic for the Candle's pornography razor blades,
(08:29):
you know, the ritual set up. Some dudes get together
and have some pizza and wings. Maybe watch the game.
Some guys like candles and play stabby stabby, cut cut.
Everybody's got their thing, and it's all fun and games,
until mysteriously, women in the neighborhood started dis a fucking
(08:50):
peering one by one by one by one, a lot
of missing bitches, and the attic became the Crews Church.
It was a sex dungeon. It was a Satanic workshop
and a weird clubhouse for the four of them. Witnesses
(09:12):
later described it like a makeshift ritual chamber. There were
black drapes, wax drippings, and occult drawings all over the walls.
Everything one would need to be a creepy, fucking satanic
cult leader. And wait till I tell you what he did. Now,
(09:32):
according to some inmate rumors, now this is like way
later in this so called sex dungeon, there was apparently
a Bible with breasts drawn all over Jesus. They were,
I guess, trying to trans Jesus trans just if you will.
(09:56):
But so together these d started to escalate recklessly. They
began abducting more and more women. The majority were you
guessed it, sex workers and strippers. You know, a little
prosty here and there, and what they would do was
(10:18):
they would drive up in a van. They would grab
the woman, drag her inside, gag her and take her
to gex attic or a secluded location. And their process
became mechanical, methodical. They had a system. It worked, and
(10:39):
they became efficient. They could carry out these abductions in
literally seconds, leaving no evidence behind, leaving no witnesses. Uh,
there was nothing left behind by these guys. And they
proved to be very difficult to apprehend. But so let's
(11:02):
get to the biscuits and gravy. Here their ceremony, their
ritualistic ceremony, that is the epicenter of all of the
god awful shit that happens with this crew, So let's
(11:24):
talk about it. They would put candles in a triangle
around the victim, and then they would get out the box.
It was a little wooden box. And what's in the box?
Hang on, we'll get to that. But then after they
(11:45):
get out the box, they then removed with surgical precision,
the woman's breasts. Then the breast would be placed into
the box as an offering, and rumors say that they
would oftentimes eat parts of the breast. Okay, but this
(12:10):
is kind of where it gets horrifically graphic. And let's
be real, you know what podcast you're listening to. This
is not edited for the delicate sensibilities of the easily offended.
This is Cosmic Peach podcast. And this is how the
ritual itself went down. Ready, So the women were tied down,
(12:33):
their titties were removed surgically with an extremely sharp blade.
And these women were obviously not under antictesia, okay, and
they were forcefully tied down against their will, and they
sadly felt all of this. The wound or titty holes
(12:56):
were left open, and the women were in courage to
scream throughout this process, and the blood was caught on
cloths or in cups, and Gek would stand at the altar,
place the titties into the wooden box and then he
(13:17):
would masturbate. Apparently Gek would also masturbate into the open
wounds on the woman's chest, so literally cut bitch's titties
off and then fucked the tittholes. About that, Moniker. The killers,
(13:39):
once known as the Ripper Crew, will now forever be
known as the Slitty Slitty Titty Committee. You know, dude,
my kid's gonna be so fucked up when he gets
old enough to listen to this podcast. Imagine like its
(14:00):
career day at school and all the other kids are like,
my mom works at the bank, my mom sells granite
counter tops, my mom is a real estate agent. It's like, Hank,
what's your mom do? She has a podcast where she
(14:20):
talks about dudes who cut bitch's titties off and fuck
the tittholes. But granite countertops are also equally as important.
People keep that in mind. So moving on.
