Most young people nowadays have people that they look up to online. It could be an online gamer, an Instagram model, or a YouTube star. This could be someone you admire and want to be like, someone you find attractive, or someone who creates content that makes you laugh. It’s important that, especially the young and vulnerable, the people that they look up to online are good people. But we know that isn’t always the case. Some hurt others and make bad decisions. Some social media influencers even end up taking a life. The following stories tell the tale of three sadistic social media influencers who turned into killers. We have one young man who killed his entire family for seemingly no reason at all and was prepared to kill again. We also have an Instagram star who is accused of stabbing her longtime boyfriend to death. And finally, a man who believed in rebirth so strongly he took his own life as well as others to experience it.
