• 0:46
  Speaker 1: All right, let's get into today's story. In Nigeria, motorcycle
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: taxi drivers are called okadas, and in Ibidan, which is
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: one of Nigeria's biggest cities home to three and a
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: half million people, there are a lot of okadas. However,
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: despite their massive numbers, these Ibidon okadas are actually a
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: fairly tight knit community made up primarily of young men,
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: and so in early twenty fourteen, when two of these
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: okadas went missing, the community immediately found out about it
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: and was really concerned. And when the police did not
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: appear to be doing much to actually go out and
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: find these two guys, the community of okada's decided to
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: launch a search of their own. Basically, as they went
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: about their day driving around the city dropping farries off,
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: all of these okadas would be going down side streets
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: and looking in back alleys and checking all over the
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: city for their missing members, but despite their best efforts,
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: they never could find them. Then, on March twenty second
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: of that year, a third Ibadon Okada vanished.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: He was a young man named Lonree.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Cdiku, and unlike the other two riders who went missing
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: while they were at home, Lnre went missing while he
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: was working. Lonree was part of a group of okadas
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: within the city who all kind of met up on
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: the same city street, and that's where they stayed throughout
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: the course of their day, trying to wave down fares
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: as they came up. And so everyone in that meet
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: up point all knew each other, and so they all
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: knew Lanree and on the day he went missing, they
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: recalled seeing him driving away from this meet up point
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: with two passengers on the back of his bike. Now,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: typically the rides these okadas would offer to their passengers
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: were very short, they're only driving them just around.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: The city, and so it was very quickly noticed.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: That Lnree had left and after several hours had still
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: not come back.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: Yet.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: When it was noticed by the other okadas, they began
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: talking about it, and someone said, no, give them a call,
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: make sure he's okay, And so they called his cell
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: phone and Lnree did not pick up, which was highly unusual,
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: not just for Lnree but amongst the other okadas. They
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: always had their phones on because they're looking for new
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: customers and customers could be calling them, and so their
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: cell phone is a vital part of their work, and
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: so his phone is off.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: They don't really know what to make of that.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: And then out of nowhere, Lnree actually calls this group
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: of riders. However, he was calling them on his second
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: cell phone. Lanre would keep a work phone and a
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: personal phone, so he was calling them on his personal phone,
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: and so when this other okada answered the phone and
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: heard Lonrei's voice, he put the phone on speaker, so
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: the others who were concerned could hear what was going on,
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: and what they heard was Lnree totally hysterical, screaming into
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: the phone that.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: He needed help.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: He said that he and eight other people he was
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: with who he didn't even know, had been kidnapped, and
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: their kidnappers had brought them to this underground prison cell.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: They couldn't see anything, but they could hear people walking
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: above them. Lnree also explained that when they had been kidnapped,
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: the captors had taken all of their belongings, but they
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: hadn't recognized that Lnre had this secondary cell phone, which
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: is why he was calling from it. And so in
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: between Lnrey's frantic descriptions of what was going on and
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: what had happened to him, these Okadas that received this call,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: they can hear in the background, these other eight people
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: that are with Lnrey in this underground cell, screaming out
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: as loud as they can probably to get the attention
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: of someone, anyone who was above ground who might be able.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: To come down and save them. And so these.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: Okada riders who are getting this call from Lanree, they're
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: horrified and they're trying to calm Lnree down so we
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: can explain where he is so they can go find him.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: And finally Lanrey he does compose himself and he gives
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: them really specific directions to this footpath that led into
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: the Soka forests where he said he had been taken.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: The Soka Forest was a very dense stretch of wilderness
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: right on the outskirts of Ibadan. Lnree would tell them
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: that he had no idea where specifically in the Soka
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Forest he was. However, he said, if you just keep
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: walking on that path, eventually you'll hear us calling out
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: from underground and you can come and save us. And so,
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: as the riders turned on their bikes and they got
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: ready to head out and go rescue their friend, they
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: told Lanrei to stay on the line. Let us keep
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: talking to you until we find you. But as they're
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: telling him that, his phone abruptly cuts out, and then
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: when they tried calling him back, his phone was off.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: About forty okadas from Lawnrey's meetup spot, took off together
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: and sped down city streets until they hit this major
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: highway that would take them out of the city. And
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: then once they were out of the city, they went
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: down this other road that brought them right towards the
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: Soka forest. And then as this road put them right
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: up against the tree line on their left side of
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: the Soka forest, they all began looking for the two
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: burned out cars that Lanre had said marked the beginning
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: of this footpath they were looking for. And so sure
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: enough they find these burned out cars. They park all
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: their bikes off on the shoulder of the road, and
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: they quickly realized that this really is a footpath. Only
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: there's no way they can get their motorcycles onto the path,
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: not only because the burned out cars are blocking their way,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: but because the path itself is so overgrown with vegetation.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, they can barely see the path, let alone
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: drive something through it. And so the men leave their
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: bikes by the side of the road, and then, unarmed,
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: they walk past the burned out cars onto this path.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: And then, because it was so narrow, they had to
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: walk more or less in a single file line into
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: the Soka forest. And so as these men are basically
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: marching into the woods, they're not making any sound because
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: again they're trying to listen for the sound of their
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: friend and the other people that have been taken captive
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: somewhere underground, and so they're silently marching through this forest
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: when all of a sudden, the guy at the front
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: of the line thinks he hears something way up the head,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: and so he holds his hand up to stop the line,
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: and they all stop and they're trying to listen, and then,
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: all of a sudden, about fifty feet ahead of them
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: through the trees, this man they didn't recognize suddenly jumped
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: out from behind a tree.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: He yelled something at.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: Them, and then he raised his gun and began firing
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: in their direction. The forty Okadas immediately turn around and
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: just sprint back down the path, right back out to
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: the road. They hop on their bikes and they peeled
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: back out towards the city. When they finally get back
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: to the meetup spot they had all originated from, they
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: realized they can't just leave Lonrey and the other people
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: he was with out to dry.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: They have to go back and rescue them.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: They considered calling the police, but given the lackluster response
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: to the other two missing Okadas, they realized they probably
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: would have a higher chance of saving their friend and
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: the others if they just went themselves, and so the
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: forty Okadas rounded up another sixty from other neighboring meetup spots,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: and this huge posse of over one hundred men all
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: hopped on their bikes and headed back towards.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: That footpath that led into the forest.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: When they got there, they put their bikes on the
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: side of the road, and this time when they started
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: walking down that path, they had guns, knives, bats, all
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: sorts of weapons, and they were not trying.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: To be quiet.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: They were actually yelling like these loud war cries to
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: let the gunmen and any other gunman in the woods
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: know that there was a horde of angry people that
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: were coming into the woods for a fight. And so
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: as they're marching down this trail kind of expecting to
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: get shot at at any point, it doesn't happen. Instead,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: after quite a while, they walk out of the thick
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: forest into this huge opening, and right in the middle
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: of this huge clearing is this fairly small river, but
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: it's big enough that it would be very difficult to cross. However,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: they can see there's a bridge, this kind of crumbling
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: old stone bridge that goes over this river, and then
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: on the other side of the bridge, on the other
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: side of the river. They can see there are two
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: dilapidated buildings. The one that is closer to the bridge
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: is this small black shack that has a window looking
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: out towards them, and from their perspective there may be
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: one hundred feet away from the shack. They can't tell
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: if anybody's inside of this building.
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: And then the other building was much bigger than the shack.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: It was this huge kind of broken down warehouse that
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: had big, tall cement walls, and then all around it
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: was this huge chain link fence with barbed wire wrapped
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: around the tops. And so this huge posse of okadas
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: they come storming out of the forest and they run
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: over to that bridge, which is the one way across,
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: and as they get on the bridge, they're kind of
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: scanning the two buildings. They're not seeing anybody, and then
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: one of the men they look down underneath the bridge
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: and they actually see Lawnrey's motorcycle. It's lying on the
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: banks of this river, kind of tucked up underneath the bridge,
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: as if someone had stolen it. And so everyone already
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: knows Lnrey is somewhere over here. We're going to go
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: find him, and so the men they get over the bridge,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: they go to that first building, that black shack, and
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: they open up the door. It's a plywood door, and
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: there's no one inside, but the shack is literally stuffed
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: full of hundreds and hundreds of articles of clothing and shoes.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: And so, after kind of looking this over and not
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: really sure what to make of it, the posse moved
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: on from the black shack and made their way up
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: to the fence right in front of this huge warehouse.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: And when they reach the fence, they're kind of expecting
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: to be met with some sort of resistance. I mean,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: the last time they were out here they got shot at,
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: and so they begin yelling into the warehouse for anyone
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: in there to show yourselves, come out here.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: But it was silent.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: And so one of the Okadas that was part of
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: the posse had brought along bolt cutters as a weapon
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: to use as a club if he needed to, But
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: as it happened, he began to use the bolt cutters
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: for their actual purpose, and he bent down and actually
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: cut a huge hole in this fence so they could
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: go in and explore this warehouse. And so after a
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: large percentage of this posse had gotten inside, the fence line.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: They began walking around this huge warehouse to try to
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: find an entrance inside. And so as they're walking the
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: windows that lead into this warehouse, they're too high up,
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: so you can't actually see what's going on inside. It's silent,
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: there's a pretty bad smell, but they don't really know
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: what to make of this. They walk around this structure,
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: and when they get to the very back they find
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: an entrance. All it is is this big rusted piece
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: of tin metal like sheet metal that's propped up against
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: a gap in the walls.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: Of the warehouse. And so one of the okadas grabs
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: this piece of.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: Metal and he pushes it out of the way, and
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: then as soon as he did that, a few others
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: quickly stepped through the threshold into the warehouse, preparing themselves
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: to have to fight, potentially if there are gunmen or
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: anybody else.
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: Inside that might want to do them harm.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: But as soon as they see what is inside of
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: this warehouse, they immediately lower their weapons and just stare
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: in abject horror. According to the locals who lived actually
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: in the forest relatively near where this warehouse was, they
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: said there was actually another way to get to this
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: particular area to get to the warehouse, there was another
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: path that was very rough, but it was big enough
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: for one vehicle that came in from the other direction. Now,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: the locals said they didn't use this path at all.
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: They didn't even know where it originated from. But they said,
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: for the last ten years or more, they have seen
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: one vehicle use this road all the time to get
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: to the warehouse. And it was this black jeep with
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: black tinted out windows. And they said it would typically
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: show up most nights of the week around eight pm,
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: and they said it would just go down the road,
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: it would make its way hover over to the warehouse area,
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: and then around nine to thirty pm they would hear
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: or see the black jeep leaving. Now, none of the
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: locals knew who was driving this cheap although they knew
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: it was a man. That was really all they knew,
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: and they had no idea what this man did when
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: he got over near the warehouse. However, for the last
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: ten years, every time this guy was over near the
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: warehouse from eight to nine thirty at night, they would
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: typically hear screams coming from that part of the woods,
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: coming from the warehouse. And when the locals brought their
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: concerns to police. The police just kind of blew it
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: off and didn't do anything about it, and actually told
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: the people don't worry about it. And so over the years,
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: the locals had kind of just accepted that this man
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: in his black cheap and the screams coming from this
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: warehouse were just a part of life, and so no.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: One even reported it anymore.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: Had the police followed up on the locals concerns about
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: this jeep and the screams, they would have discovered that
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: that warehouse was actually a storage facility for a very
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: indo demanned and very illegal product, and that man who
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: drove that black jeep, he would take this illegal product
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: and he would bring it back with him in batches,
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: and he would sell it on the black market. When
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: this posse of one hundred plus Okadas pulled that metal
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: door aside and they stepped into the warehouse, they were
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: not met with any resistance anyone that had been there,
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: any other gunmen or guards or anything like that. They
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: had fled when they heard the sound of this massive
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: posse whooping and yelling on their way in, and so
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: as these Okadas are standing inside of the structure, surveying
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: what's in front of them. The first thing they noticed
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: is right in the middle of the structure on the
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: ground is this cement slab. It's about four feet by
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: four feet, and one corner of the slab was elevated
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: slightly by some rocks that had been placed under it,
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: kind of propping it up, pitching it on an angle.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: And then just off of the side of the lowest
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: point of the slab was this wooden bowl that had
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: dark stains inside of it that was positioned in such
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: a way that if you put water on the slab,
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: the water would drain off of that corner directly into
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: this bowl. Basically, it was there to catch any runoff
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: from whatever was happening on this slab. Around this cement slab,
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: all over the dirt floor were bones, some with meat
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: on them. And then beyond the bones and beyond the slab,
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: all around the perimeter of the inside of this building
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: were extremely malnourished catatonic people chained up to the walls.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: These people were the highly in demand, highly illegal product.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: More specifically, their body parts were the product. In Nigeria,
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: a stunning number of people believe that certain magic potions
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: and charms will grant you wealth and success and in
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: some cases infinite life. But the catches the herbalists who
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: will perform the magical rituals and give these potions in
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: charms to people that pay for them. They often require
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: human body parts for them to work, and so human
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: body part factories like this warehouse in Soka Forest were
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: established in order to meet the high demand of people
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: that needed these parts. And so the way it's believed
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: it worked at the Soka Forest warehouse was the man
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: in the black chief. He would get orders from people
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: that wanted specific body parts for their magical potions and
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: charms and whatever else they needed, and he would make
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: a list of those parts, and then at eight pm
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: he would show up at the warehouse and he would
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: communicate with the people that worked at that warehouse and
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: they would determine out of all the captives they had,
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: who had the parts they needed. And then after figuring
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: out which captives were going to be used that night,
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: they would go into the main section of the warehouse
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: and one by one they would unchain these people. They
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: would drag them to the center of the room, and
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: in full view of all the other captives, they would
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: put them on the slab known as the slaughtering slab,
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: and they would hack off the required body parts, bag
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: them up, put them in coolers, and then the man
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: with the black cheep, he would take those parts and
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: he would leave. And then the person who's just been butchered,
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: if they were still alive and might have a chance
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: of surviving, they'd just be brought back to the wall
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: and chained up again. If they did not have a
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: good chance of survival, then they'd be brought to the
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: very back of the warehouse in the back rooms, where
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: they would be discarded. Now, the means of execution varied,
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: but in the back rooms of this warehouse they found
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: a makeshift guillotine which cuts off people's heads, and they
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: also found a large crocodile that was chained up, and
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: so it's likely that those were at least two of
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: the methods used to discard of the people they could
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: no longer harvest organs from. After the Okadas kind of
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: broke out of their initial shock of what they were
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: seeing inside of this warehouse, they went around and began
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: freeing people that were still chained up to the walls,
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: and in total, there were twenty three people that were
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: still barely alive still inside of this warehouse, but none
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: of them were Lanre Sediku. And then after checking all
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: of the dead bodies and body parts that were inside
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: of the warehouse, and then also right outside where there
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: were a number of shallow mass graves, they couldn't find
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: Lanre amongst them either. And so this huge posse began
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: looking all over the property for an entrance to this
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: underground prison that Lanree had described being in, but they
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: couldn't find it. And so eventually this posse made their
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: way back over to these survivors who were being tended
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: to by locals that had come over, and they asked
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: the survivors, you know, are you aware of any underground
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: prison cells somewhere around here where other people were being held?
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: But the survivors either didn't know or just were unable
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: to speak anymore. And so later that day, when the
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: police did come out because word got out about this
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: huge find out in this forest, the posse went to
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: the police and begged them to please begin digging up
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: this entire property. We need to find the entrance to
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: this underground prison cell. Lanrey and eight others and who
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: knows how many others beyond them them are trapped underground
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: in these cells.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: And we've got to get to them.
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: But the police just kind of refused and immediately just
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: demolished the warehouse, and then after kind of cordoning off
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: that area for a couple of days, the police basically
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: just left and stopped caring about it altogether. And so
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: the Okadas once again came together as a community and
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: would spend the next several weeks going back out to
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: this forest and just manually began digging up all over
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: this entire property in hopes of finding their friend and
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: the rest of these people that were trapped underground.
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: But they never did, and so we don't know.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: What happened to Lanrey and the other people who were
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: trapped in that underground cell. We don't know what happened
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: to the other two Okata riders who went missing right
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: before Lanrey did, although it's generally assumed they most likely
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: were kidnapped as well and probably met a similar fate.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: We also have no idea how many people were butchered
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: inside of the Soka Forest warehouse. However, given the massive
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: amount of clothing and shoes inside of that black shack,
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: it's believed the total number of victims is easily.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: In the hundreds.
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: No one has ever been officially held accountable for the
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: atrocities that took place in the Soaka forest. However, a
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: couple of days after the warehouse was discovered by the
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: Okada Posse, the posse was back digging looking for Lanrey
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: when they discovered there was this man who was there
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: who was kind of walking around acting suspicious, and so
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: the posse confronted him and it would turn out this
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: guy had several human tongues in his pockets, along with
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: dozens and dozens of cell phone sim cards, and so,
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: assuming he was part of whatever happened there, the Okada
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: Posse proceeded.
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: To kill the man on site.
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: Later on, a woman who was a survivor from the
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: warehouse would tell reporters how she got kidnapped. She said
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: she lived in Ibdon, she was well educated, she had
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: a good family. She was just sitting outside of her
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: house when all of a sudden, this van pulled up
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: in front of her and these very official looking men
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: were inside of the van and they got out and
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: they told her, you know you're under arrest. You got
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: to come with us to the police station, and the
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: woman was so confused, but the men were very professional
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: and seemed very convincing, and so she got inside the van.
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: They shut the door and they drove off, and very quickly,
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: once she was inside of the van and couldn't go anywhere,
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: she realized they were not police. She had been kidnapped,
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: and within the hour she, along with several other people
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: who had probably been kidnapped in the same way, were
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: stripping their clothes off right outside of that black shack
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: on the other side of the river, and they were
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: told to put their clothes and belongings inside of the
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: shack while they were being held at gunpoint, and then
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: once they were naked, they were promptly marched into that
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: warehouse where virtually everyone around her would be butchered and killed.
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: So that's going to do it. Guys.
