0:00.0	Hi everyone. I hope you're all doing so well. Welcome back to episode number three of the
0:15.8	Criminal Makeup Podcast. Each episode we dive into the minds of some of the worst criminals
0:20.6	in history and today we are going to be talking about the worst cult you've never heard of,
0:27.0	so this case that we're going to be talking about today is a heavy one and I mean heavy
0:32.4	and it is a cult case and in a lot of senses it is a very typical cult story, there is a crazy
0:38.7	cult leader, the hiding out in the woods, there's manipulation, intimidation and just some of the
0:44.4	most crazy sadistic acts I think I've ever heard of and I really do need to give a disclaimer for
0:50.4	this episode and I do not do this lightly because this episode is not for the faint hearted,
0:56.4	it is definitely one of the worst cases I have ever covered, if not the worst. Some of the things

1:29.5	happened, this is real life and I cover true crimes, so I'm going to include everything,
1:35.0	so here is your warning right now, prepare yourselves for this one, this is a story of the cult
1:39.9	called the Ant Hill Kids and their leader, Rotterio and I literally have no words, like I don't,
1:46.7	I have no words, I cannot think of words crazy enough to describe this man, and when I first came
1:53.4	across this case I was like oh my god why does this case not have more coverage and it surprised me
1:58.8	that it had taken me so long to hear this story, I mean everyone talks about Charles Manson and Jim
2:04.8	Jones but no one talks about Rotterio because I'm sorry but Charles Manson and Jim Jones,
2:11.5	they have got nothing gone rock, so let's get into it, this is the story of the Ant Hill Kids
