| Summary: | Bone Church: The cemetery church of all saints in Sedic which is a suburb of Kutna Hora right in the center of the Czech Republic. It is decorated with bones from an estimated 40,000 human skeletons. This is because after the 13th century abbot returned from the holy land with soil from Golgotha which he sprinkled over the cemetery, the site became a desirable graveyard. Many skeletons were exhumed to make room and the pile of bones was put to ornamental use by the monks. OJ Simpson: 875 South Bundy Drive, Brentwood, Los Angeles was the home where on the 12th of June 1994, Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman were found murdered. OJ Simpson, Nicole Simpson's ex-husband was arrested and tried for the two murders, but not before the well-documented slow speed police chase. In the end Simpson was acquitted of both chargers. It is now believed that OJ Simpson's son Jason was the real murderer. |
