The document was approved, and a new psychiatric hospital was built, which is now known as the Lorton Prison, a temporary prison where criminals are held until sentencing.
In the fall of 1904, patients were gathered and told to take a bus to Lorton. Shortly after the exit, the driver had to turn sharply to avoid an unexpected appearance on the road. The bus tilted quite a bit, and then rushed forward at breakneck speed. There was a collision.
Most of the participants in the accident were injured, and some saw an opportunity to escape, so they ran into the woods at night. The next morning, the police launched an investigation, and the refugee raids began. Hours turned into days, days into weeks, weeks into months. Within four months, he managed to find all but two of them: Marcus A. Wolster and Douglas J. The griffin. During the search for both men, the half-eaten and dismembered remains of a hare were accidentally discovered, also at further stages of the search.
They eventually found Marcus dead in the vicinity of the viaduct at Fairfax Station (now known as the Banniman Bridge). In his hand, he grabbed a hand tool resembling a hammer and a knife. It was made of sharp stone and a very sturdy branch. At that moment, it didn't matter how he died, no one cared about it, all that mattered was that they didn't have to look for him anymore. The police found a suitable nickname for him. However, as it turned out later, Banniman was not named after this man.
In the course of further searches for Douglas, half-eaten hares were found. They met all along the way. Eventually, they called Douglas Banniman, and that's how it stayed.
Three months passed in a row, and on April 7, 1905, the police suspended their search. It was assumed that Banniman was definitely dead, or he had gone far enough to not pose a serious danger. Thus, the residents calmed down and returned to normal life. In October, they observed dead, eaten hares appearing out of nowhere, and began to fear danger again.
Halloween has arrived. As usual, a group of children went to the Fairfax Viaduct to drink and make... Do what the kids were doing at the time. As midnight approached, most of them went home, and only three remained.
At exactly midnight, a bright light suddenly appeared from behind the viaduct, illuminating the children. In a few seconds, they were all dead. Their throats were slit with a tool similar or similar to the one used by the fugitive Marcus. However, the slit throats were not the only injuries. Their chests were opened and their guts were pulled out. spinight casino
