River Donaghey grew up in a cult. Or at least that’s what some people called it. His parents called it a “personal-growth seminar group.” Its leader called it “one big happy family.” But there was a dark side to the world River grew up in. One he never heard about as a kid.

Paul Bernardo and Karla Homolka became known as The Ken and Barbie Killers, as they seemed like the perfect couple. However, behind the Ken and Barbie facade was a world of sexual depravity that resulted in the brutal rapes and deaths of Karla's 15 year old sister Tammy, 14 year old Leslie Mahaffey and 15 year old Kristen French. Paul Bernado was also known as The Scarborough Rapist, as he would also commit brutal rapes in the Scarborough area, which was encouraged by Homolka. Bernardo's luck would run out after he beat Holmolka and Police caught up to his rapes. Holmolka manipulated the Canadian Government into giving her a light sentence in order to testify against Bernardo, leading to what many have described as the worst deal in Canadian legal history.
