Cult murders/sacrifices people in Panama.

[PriestTheyCalledHim]

A week after six children and a pregnant woman were sacrificed in a brutal religious ritual, the inhabitants of a remote village in northwestern Panama fear they might be next.

"No-one can sleep. As soon as they hear a cricket or a cockroach everyone's on high alert," said Pacifico Blanco.

Blanco lives in Altos del Terron, an isolated indigenous community where the victims of the ritualistic killings were found last week in a mass grave.

Bibles, messages alluding to the devil and a heap of rope can still be seen at the site of the massacre -- a makeshift church in dense jungle that was used by an obscure sect that called itself "God's New Light."

Police raided the church on January 15, arresting 10 people and rescuing 15 captives, including children, they believe were being prepared for sacrifice.

The mass grave was found a day later, about an hour away from the church.

Vegetation and walls kept the church almost invisible to the outside world and the local community had no idea what was taking place inside.

The massacre has left locals "terrorized," said Enrique Martinez, police chief for neighboring Veraguas province.

Police reinforcements were flown in by helicopter to the village, around 250 kilometers (150 miles) from Panama City and hard to reach.

Besides protecting the local community, the police are looking for other such sects.

This latest incident came just a month after 17 foreigners belonging to another sect were arrested in the coastal town of San Carlos.

The police presence in Altos del Terron has brought little relief to residents who fear there may be more murderous sect members lurking in their midst.

"We don't sleep, either by day or by night, nor do we rest," the local indigenous chief, Evangelisto Santos, told AFP.

- Sad, sleepless nights -

Since the murders of the six children aged between one and 17, and the pregnant woman -- the mother of five of the victims -- many villagers have taken to living together in the deeply religious community.

Safety in numbers, they believe, will help protect them from any other potential sects in the area.

"Honestly, I spend my nights sad and worrying about the fate of the nephews and nieces that have been left with me," said Edison Rios, the dead woman's brother.

"Its upsetting to think about them. Who knows if they will come back today or tomorrow and finish off the remaining children?"

According to the public prosecutor, the 10 suspects, now in preventive detention, tied up their victims and beat them to death with Bibles, sticks and machetes.

The pregnant woman was killed in front of her children, who were then murdered too.

Survivors said the sect leader claimed he was carrying out God's orders to "remove the demon" from the victims in a violent exorcism.

"They used God's name here to catch and kidnap people, to carry on killing," Pacifico Blanco told AFP at the church.

Neighbors said they suspected nothing because the church had carried out noisy, animated religious rituals in the past without major incidents.

For that reason, they thought nothing of the sounds coming from the compound, even screams, at the time of the massacre.

"We heard the racket," said Diomedes Blanco, but paid no heed because they thought people "were praising God."

- Devil's work -

Everything changed when several injured hostages managed to escape and alert the authorities.

That's when the locals found out that "they were capturing people to take them to the church and massacre them, and the people became alarmed," said Santos.

"From now on we're not going to believe any religion that enters our region because it's a danger to us. We're afraid of what we've seen," said Pacifico Blanco.

For Narciso, a retired police officer who now ferries passengers on his boat, "This was the work of the very devil himself."

The thing about negativity is it's like a disease unlike any I've ever witnessed before. A negative person might bully people for a while but live on to lead a normal life.

I don't know specifically what it is about some people, but our circumstances are all different, so who knows? What I know of negative individuals who cling to that path is bullying eventually becomes pre-meditation, pre-meditation can become murder. Murder is seemingly not enough though. It's like a fire that burns from the inside and the fuel that burns it (human sacrifice) only seems to satisfy the level of torment an individual goes through for a short time.

Of course, explaining it can't do it justice. I have been through things myself that make me want to combat the dark side even more or ever more. It's just something that a lot of people stay blind to. I know they think they have their reasons but they're really just being lazy by not doing enough about it. That's just my opinion.

That's worst than a horror movie. God had nothing to do with it, that was clearly demonic activity and sacrificing humans.

Now who wants to speak up and say they don't believe in satanic cults and human sacrifices? It's clear as day.

Now who wants to speak up and say they don't believe in satanic cults and human sacrifices? It's clear as day.

Cause it's clear as day, it has been going on for as long as people have been on earth.
Some people just get selected by the cause of their actions in life, I can name without even really thinking hard 3 groups that call for the culling of people right away.

I know one guy very well who was in a place I'll call "Nexus One" & some foolish members of that group tried to block him in etc, sadly for them his trained in Praying Mantis (Southern style) & kicked / punched the shit out of them & got away.

"I'll take the weird looking cunt on the left & you take the cunt on the right, break his fucking legs so he can't get back up"

Mob mentality gone wrong.
Put a bunch of vulnerable, likely poverty stricken mentally ill people in a room, promise them hope and happiness and they’ll be like putty in your hands
