Occult Profiles: Detective Amy Godoy

The coffin had been dug up and pried open, and a corpse, headless, sat against the tombstone. Arrayed around it: small gourd bowls, a severed rooster's head and a cow's tongue, nailed to a tree.

Time to call in Amy Godoy -- the "Occult Cop".

Godoy, a Miami-Dade (Fla.) county detective, walks a beat on the dark side; it is her job to investigate crimes committed during rituals some would find bizarre, or at the very least exotic.

Imagine agents Mulder and Scully from TV's "The X-Files," rolled into one. Godoy is skeptical but open to the extraordinary.

"I don't care how you cut up the religious and spiritual aspects of your life. ... What I am concerned is if you do break the law," Godoy said. "That's where I come in."

Mongolian Death Worm

"Braving violent sandstorms akin to fog with an attitude problem, tent-shredding twisters that blast men off their feet, and an ice river that caves in as their vehicles are crossing, the four men continue on their journey.

The Cult of Holy Death

Time.com is reporting that the Catholic Church is denouncing The Santa Murete as a Satanic Cult.

La Santisima Muerte is a "banned saint," the Roman Catholic "cover" for an ancient Aztec goddess named Mictecacihuatl, a death goddess and co-ruler, with her husband, of the underworld.
