Take this one as you seem fit , but I don’t think he likes the idea

.....

Not everyone is equally excited by horror stories, though. Some of us are more drawn to frightening tales than others. Various studies have found that people who are high in the trait of sensation seeking are more likely to enjoy a horror film than those who often avoid novel, risky or intense experiences. People with lower empathy levels also usually appreciate a horrifying tale more than those who are highly empathetic. That does not mean that empathetic people hate scary movies or that only psychopaths like watching them, but the experience of seeing a frightening film can be more painful for people who easily put themselves into the characters’ shoes.

Yup I give up!

Note : DO NOT READ HIS WIKIPEDIA PAGE ,I REPEAT DO NOT READ HIS PAGE ITS REVOLTING. I know you lil bastards will still read on him

Yahweh ben Yahweh (born Hulon Mitchell Jr.; October 27, 1935 – May 7, 2007) was an American religious leader, black separatist and founder of the Nation of Yahweh, a new religious movement headquartered in Florida that had thousands of black American devotees at its peak. He preached that Jesus is black but white devils are in charge temporarily, and was accused of teaching hate. Yahweh was later indicted on three counts of federal racketeering and extortion charges, of which he was found not guilty. However, he was convicted of conspiracy to commit murder.

Yahweh ben Yahweh was born Hulon Mitchell Jr. on October 27, 1935. One of 15 children born to Hulon Mitchell Sr., the minister of the Antioch Church of God in Christ in Enid, Oklahoma, and Pearl Mitchell, pianist for the same congregation.

After leaving Oklahoma, Mitchell joined the military and then attended law school. He moved to Atlanta, Georgia, where in the 1960s he joined the Nation of Islam (NOI) and took the name Hulon X. After leaving the NOI in the late 1960s, he became a faith healing Christian preacher and named himself Father Mitchell, fashioning himself after Father Divine and Samuel "Father Jehovia" Morris, two African-American ministers and self-proclaimed divine connections to God who were active during the early 20th century. Mitchell arrived in Miami, Florida in 1978, where he gathered members of the city's Black Hebrew Israelite congregations and founded the Nation of Yahweh.



The Nation of Yahweh set up its headquarters in Liberty City, Florida in 1979.

Broadly classified as a branch of the Black Hebrew Israelite movement, Mitchell's doctrine emphasized the belief that God and all of the prophets of the Bible were black and that blacks would gain the knowledge of their true history through Mitchell himself. He also characterized whites and Jews as infidels and oppressors. Mitchell emphasized loyalty to himself as the son of God, Yahweh.

Mitchell's business and charity efforts earned him respect in the community. Then-Miami mayor Xavier Suárez declared "Yahweh ben Yahweh Day" on October 7, 1990,[4] a month before Ben Yahweh's indictment.

Crimes and aftermath
Although Yahweh ben Yahweh's followers remained devoted to him, he was in trouble with the law by in the 1990s. Between 1990 and 2001, he served eleven years of an eighteen-year sentence on a Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) conviction after he and several other Nation of Yahweh members were convicted of conspiracy for ex followers role in more than a dozen murders.
Robert Rozier, a former NFL player and a devotee of Mitchell, confessed to seven of these murders.

Ben Yahweh faced conviction only for conspiracy to murder. A primary component of the prosecution's case was Rozier, who testified in return for a lighter sentence. Rozier later entered the Witness Protection Program, but returned to prison on a sentence of 25 years to life under California's three strikes law, following a check kiting conviction. Mitchell had the Federal Bureau of Prisons ID# 22031-034.

Ben Yahweh was released on parole in 2001 and returned to Miami, but his activities were strongly restricted until a few months before his death. He was prohibited from reconnecting with his old congregation.

To ensure this, he was restricted from any form of speech by Internet, telephone, computer, radio or television that could place him in contact with any Nation of Yahweh members.

Last years and death
In 2006, as he became increasingly ill with prostate cancer, ben Yahweh’s attorney, Jayne Weintraub, petitioned the U.S. District Court for his release from parole to permit him to "die with dignity".

Mitchell died on May 7, 2007 at the age of 71. The location was not disclosed. "Yahweh will be remembered and mourned by the millions of people that he touched through prayer and teachings", his lawyers, Jayne Weintraub and Steven Potolsky, said in a joint statement.[11]

Television
The story of the police investigation and prosecution of Yahweh ben Yahweh is the subject of an episode of The FBI Files entitled "Temple of Fear" (Season 3, Episode 10) as well as an Investigation Discovery Channel episode of Most Infamous (Season 2, Episode1).[citation needed]

A 2018 episode of People Magazine - Cults entitled "Yahweh Nation," also on Investigation Discovery, tells the story of Hulon Mitchell Jr

Aum Shinrikyo

This puffy headed neo-Hindi Religious zealous Man led a line between a terrorist organization and a religious group, This Japanese group started innocently as a Yoga class soon it was a religious organisation with a whooping 40,0000 members Asahara broadcast his singing, insisting on his innocence through a radio broadcast relayed from Russia and directed toward Japan, , Although Negative publicity increased as the religion of the elite started hoarding weaponry , and mass bombings linked to their leader Aum shinrikyo, there was a Gas attack also commulated by the group in a Tokyo subway leaving hundreds dead

On 6 July 2018, after exhausting all appeals, Asahara and six followers were executed as a punishment for the 1995 attacks and other crimes, and the remaining six on death row were executed on 26 July.At 12:10 am, on New Year's Day 2019, at least nine people were injured (one seriously) when a car was deliberately driven into crowds celebrating the new year on Takeshita Street in Tokyo+in the name of whatever God he follows ) Local police reported the arrest of Kazuhiro Kusakabe, the suspected driver, who allegedly admitted to intentionally ramming his vehicle into crowds to protest his opposition to the death penalty, specifically in retaliation for the execution of the aforementioned exeuctions

Shinrikyo Aum is a syncretic belief system that draws upon Asahara's idiosyncratic interpretations of elements of early Indian Buddhism and Tibetan Buddhism, as well as Hinduism, taking Shiva as the main image of worship and incorporating millennialist ideas from Christianity, Yoga, and the writings of Nostradamus.
Its founder, Chizuo Matsumoto, claimed that he sought to restore "original Buddhism" but employed Christian millenarian rhetoric.In 1992, Matsumoto, who had changed his name to Shoko Asahara, published a foundational book, declaring himself to be "Christ",Japan's only fully enlightened master, as well as identifying himself as the "Lamb of God".

Asahara's purported mission was to take upon himself the sins of the world, and he claimed he could transfer spiritual power to his followers and ultimately take away their sins and bad deeds.While some reject Aum Shinrikyo's claims of Buddhist characteristics and affiliations with Buddhism, other scholars refer to it as an offshoot of Japanese Buddhism, and this was how the movement generally defined and saw itself.


Asahara outlined a doomsday prophecy(typical of Religious leaders), which included a third world war instigated by the United States.smfh

The VX victim, whom Shoko Asahara had suspected was a spy, was attacked at 7:00 a.m. on 12 December 1994, on the street in Osaka by Tomomitsu Niimi and another Aum member, who sprinkled the nerve agent on his neck. He chased them for about 100 yards (91 m) before collapsing, dying 10 days later without coming out of a deep coma. Doctors in the hospital suspected at the time he had been poisoned with an organophosphate pesticide. But the cause of death was pinned down only after cult members arrested for the subway attack in Tokyo in March 1995 confessed to the killing. Ethyl methylphosphonate, methylphosphonic acid, and diisopropyl-2-(methylthio) ethylamine were later found in the body of the victim. Unlike the cases for sarin (Matsumoto incident and Sarin gas attack on the Tokyo subway), VX was not used for mass murder.

In February 1995, several cult members kidnapped Kiyoshi Kariya, a 69-year-old brother of a member who had escaped, from a Tokyo street and took him to a compound in Kamikuishiki near Mount Fuji, where he was killed. His corpse was destroyed in a microwave-powered incinerator and the remnants disposed of in Lake Kawaguchi.
Before Kariya was abducted, he had been receiving threatening phone calls demanding to know the whereabouts of his sister, and he had left a note saying, "If I disappear, I was abducted by Aum Shinrikyo".

Police made plans to simultaneously raid cult facilities across Japan in March 1995. Prosecutors alleged Asahara was tipped off about this and that he ordered the Tokyo subway attack to divert police

He was considered a soft Spoken man and had this calming presence about him when he spoke, his miracle video is one of him supposedly floating , edited in many which ways , and worst he has a cartoon of him self literally just meditating until he starts floating

CHARLES MANSON



Charles Manson was an American Charismatic Leader ,Religion head and an American Psychopathic criminal, although never 'killed anybody' but manipulated young hippie minded runaway followers of his to commit murderous campaigns, the Manson Family cult, that would make him one of the most infamous figures in criminal history.

Notorious for his connection to the brutal slayings of pregnant actress Sharon Tate( who casually pleaded not for her live but her child, as she laid in her pool of blood }, Manson received the death penalty in 1971, a sentence that was commuted to life in prison the following year.


Manson was born Charles Milles Maddox on November 12, 1934, in Cincinnati, Ohio, to Kathleen Maddox, a 16-year-old girl who was both an alcoholic and a prostitute.

Kathleen later married William Manson, but the marriage ended quickly and Charles was placed in a boys school at age 12. Rejected in his attempts to return to his mother, Charles was soon living on the streets and getting by through petty crime.

Over the next 20 years, Manson spent time in and out of reform schools and prisons for various crimes. He was released from prison on March 21, 1967, and moved to San Francisco.Trying to be the good boy but of course would all go south

Manson would later get his own cult group/Family

The Manson Family Cult
"The Family" was a group of around 100 followers of Manson who shared his passion for an unconventional lifestyle and habitual use of hallucinogenic drugs, such as LSD and magic mushrooms. The Manson Family eventually moved from San Francisco to a deserted ranch in the San Fernando Valley.

Manson’s followers also included a small, hard-core unit of impressionable young girls. They began to believe, without question, Manson's claims that he was Jesus and his prophecies of a race war.

In his Race War he believed the Blacks would inherit the earth (okay), and would do unto white people what black people had done to their Ancestors , He was a complicated mind Manson.

Charles Manson and "Helter Skelter"
Manson was influenced not only by drugs, such as LSD, but by art works and music of the time, most notably The Beatles song "Helter Skelter," from their 1968 White Album. Helter Skelter: he would perform song in his hippie bus for his drug loving followers who were compelled to repeatedly say ' i love you Charlie , and i will kill for you' this quickly became their mantra as , distraught Charlie came in after his song was rejected decided to take it out on the hollywood residents living in that area.

Preacher Applewhite Marshal
Following an anonymous tip, police enter a mansion in Rancho Santa Fe, an exclusive suburb of San Diego, California, and discover 39 victims of a mass suicide. The deceased 21 women and 18 men of varying ages—were all found lying peaceably in matching dark clothes and Nike sneakers and had no noticeable signs of blood or trauma. It was later revealed that the men and women were members of the “Heaven’s Gate” religious cult, whose leaders preached that suicide would allow them to leave their bodily “containers” and enter an alien spacecraft hidden behind the Hale-Bopp comet.

The cult was led by Marshall Applewhite, a music professor who, after surviving a near-death experience in 1972, was recruited into the cult by one of his nurses, Bonnie Lu Nettles. In 1975, Applewhite and Nettles persuaded a group of 20 people from Oregon to abandon their families and possessions and move to eastern Colorado, where they promised that an extraterrestrial spacecraft would take them to the “kingdom of heaven.” Nettles, who called herself “Ti,” and Applewhite, who took the name of “Do,” explained that human bodies were merely containers that could be abandoned in favor of a higher physical existence. As the spacecraft never arrived, membership in Heaven’s Gate diminished, and in 1985 Bonnie Lu Nettles, Applewhite’s “sexless partner,” died.

During the early 1990s, the cult resurfaced as Applewhite began recruiting new members. Soon after the 1995 discovery of the comet Hale-Bopp, the Heaven’s Gate members became convinced that an alien spacecraft was on its way to earth, hidden from human detection behind the comet. In October 1996, Applewhite rented a large home in Rancho Santa Fe, explaining to the owner that his group was made up of Christian-based angels. Applewhite advocated sexual abstinence, and several male cult members followed his example by undergoing castration operations.


Nettles died of liver cancer in 1985, but Applewhite (seen here) continued to lead the group. About 5 years later, the group isolated themselves from their friends, family and the public, and relied on the internet to recruit new members. AppleWhite would later Air publicly of the one time Mass movement to heavens Gate , by means of no other than Suicide.

Reverend Jim Jones



Well alot People should be familiar with the Religious Massacre that took the life of 900 Americans including Children and pregnant Women , Like many on our list , Jones Belived he heard from God and would rely this to his already devout followers .
Until the September 11th attacks, the tragedy in Jonestown on November 18th, 1978 ,Jones convinced all of his followers who died after drinking poison at the urge and soothing voice of their Pastor, the Reverend Jim Jones, in a secluded South American jungle settlement. Photographs taken after the carnage forever document the sheer enormity of the event: the bodies of hundreds of people, including children, lying face down in the grass. Nearly 40 years later, the infamous and horrific event continues to fascinate us through numerous books, articles and documentaries
His Temple had a membership estimated in the thousands and was courted by local politicians in San Francisco, including Harvey Milk. But by 1977, Jones had grown paranoid from the media scrutiny over the Temple’s suspicious activities, so he and his numerous followers moved to an agricultural settlement (a.k.a. Jonestown) in Guyana, the remote country east of Venezuela

his need to control people, his deceit, and his anger toward people who betray or abandon him – could be traced to his childhood in Indiana. A loner during his youth, Jim would entertain his playmates in the loft of his family’s barn and made them his captive audience (one time, he even locked up his young friends in the barn). He performed experiments on animals and conducted funerals for them.

Jones Moved all 900 of his Followers to South America fearing a 'Nuclear War' He would then buy thousands of Acres of Land he would later call JamesTown to Murder his Avid Followers
Jones would later compel them to drink Cups of wine laced with Cyanide, in his words " if they don't allow us to live in peace then they should allow us die in peace" after this chilling statement was surprisingly answered by equally Chilling response of resounding sounds of hallelujah , Amen! believing they were the righteous to be saved from the Earths Coming Damnation, they all did s he said , Jones will later flee from the Scene but would commit suicide later after the immense manhunt for the preacher

Jesu Oyingbo

Emmanuel Odumosu known predominantly by his sobriquet Jesu Oyingbo which means “Jesus of Oyingbo” was a religious sect leader who claimed he was Jesus Christ returned. He founded the Universal College of Regeneration in Lagos. A self-proclaimed messiah, his personal beliefs included liberal sexual rights and capital accumulation. Sect members worked in various businesses of the movement establishing a self-contained economy within the movement.


Odumosu was born in 1915 to Jacob Odumosu, his grandfather was Joseph Odumosu, a famous traditional healer in Ijebu Ode. Trained as a carpenter, he served with the Post and Telegraph Department during World War II. An active member in the postal workers union, a general strike in 1945 led to his disengagement from the department. He took on carpentry work and opened a shop on Lagos Island close to Oil Mill Street. However, he struggled as a carpenter and was constantly in debt, he was jailed for six months on charges brought by his creditors. During this period, Odumosu attended various Protestant churches in Lagos, but soon claimed he received visions and dreams from God.
He interpreted some of the visions as messianic visions and that he was chosen as a messiah that has come to redeem the world. He began his rebirth by holding evening meetings close to his shop.



Odumosu's early sermons emphasized duality of the world and self-discipline. The natural world which is filled with evil machinations, principalities and powers and a spiritual world, in which he had access. The spiritual world and natural world are in constant battle, with the former emphasized as the redeemer of the natural world. His religious movement started in 1952 at a location in Lagos Island, another major message was self-disciple; consisting of denouncing alcohol, women and tobacco. At onset, initial congregation was small, about 30 members could be counted in 1954. During this time, he instituted tithe giving to assist the poor, Odumosu also encouraged members to fund his evangelical missions. His movement began to grow and better organized, the growth assisted with a donation by a wealthy convert who provided his property for Odumosu's use. One of those properties was in Ebute Metta, where Odumosu decided to settle the movement. Since the founding of the movement, members lived at their own residences, but after the movement to Ebute Metta, Odumosu asked them to leave their houses and live in rented properties close to the church building.
Members declared their wealth to Odumosu who took 10% of the tithe and charged them rent. To expand his movement, he began preaching his sermon with loudspeakers placed outside in the church hall, at a location close to Oyingbo Market, where he was sometimes derisively called 'Jesu Oyingbo'. At the new location, he began to emphasize humility and obedience, to initiate new male members, he will whip them with nine strokes of cane. In 1959, he declared himself Jesus, reduced his sermons and began to initiate various business ventures to fund a New Jerusalem. Among the ventures were Jolly Makers and Happy Day food canteens, Deluxe bakeries makers of Goodluck bread, the properties housing this venture were then expanded to include barber shops and lodging. Economy wise, the various businesses provided wages to his followers. In 1960, a schism in the church led to the exodus of most of his members. But Odumosu who had changed from preaching self-discipline to loyalty did not seem to mind, because to continue his business ventures, he needed loyal workers who will serve him.

Odumosu's sexual practices were less conservative than other Christian denominations and he was said to have established sexual rights over many females within his sect.



Odumosu died in 1988

Krishna Venta



Krishna Venta (born Francis Herman Pencovic; March 29, 1911 – December 10, 1958) was an American religious master. He was the leader of a California religious group in the 1940s and 1950s. Venta founded his WKFL (Wisdom, Knowledge, Faith and Love) - Fountain of the World cult in Simi Valley, California.



Pencovic was born in San Francisco in 1911 to Albert Pencovic, a Jewish immigrant from Romania and his wife Maude Busenbach,born in Utah. Pencovic graduated from high school in Elko, Nevada. He married twice and served in the United States Army during World War II.

After World War II, Pencovic decided to start his religion. In April 1948, he stated: "I may as well say it, I am Christ." Krishna claimed to have been born on another planet, long ago but not so far away—240,000 years ago, on the planet Neophrates, which occupied the same orbit as Earth does presently, and was humanity’s first home. But as the planet moved inexorably closer to the sun it became uninhabitable. A fleet of great rocket ships, each more than a mile long and capable of carrying 35,000 people, set off to colonize the Dark Planet that would become Earth. Naturally, their leader was that soul who would one day manifest as Krishna Venta, Along the way, he would also bestow revelations upon such notables as Melchizedek of Salem, Kukulcan and Quelzalcoatl, the Hopi trickster Masaw, Abraham and Moses, Mohammed and the Buddha, the angels Moroni and Gabriel, and Jesus Christ. All this was elaborated in Krishna Venta’s history of humanity, a rambling series of periodic near-extinction-level events with distinctly theosophical and Mormon overtones. In 1951, he legally changed his name to "Krishna Venta" in California.

The Fountain of the World first gained national exposure in 1949 when the news reported that Fountain members were among the first to offer aid to the victims of Standard Air Lines Flight 897R, which crashed into the Simi Hills, killing 35 of the 48 people on board. They volunteered for other humanitarian efforts including fighting wildfires, offering shelter to those in need and feeding the homeless. They also drew attention in the press for uniformly dressing in robes, going barefoot, and requiring its male members to grow beards and wear their hair long. In 1956, a second branch of the WKFL Fountain of the World cult was established in Homer, Alaska. The Fountain was marginally controversial because one of the requirements for membership was that one donate all worldly assets to the group before joining. For most who joined the Fountain, this was irrelevant since most had few possessions anyway.

Venta prophesied an imminent cataclysm, with the Master’s projected flock of 144,000 guaranteed to be saved, and to build a new world once the dust and blood had settled, a version well adapted to the Cold-War climate of the times. The coming cataclysm would be a racially motivated civil war in the West, particularly in America, where the blacks would rise up and bloodily vanquish the whites (with aid from Russia). Then the traitorous Russians would turn around and conquer the blacks, and try to take over the world. However, Krishna’s followers after spending the war tucked snugly away in a safe place would re-emerge from a secret valley, conquer the Russians and build a shining new world of equality, justice, and peace, with Krishna Venta in his rightful place as world messiah.

Venta was killed in Chatsworth, California, along with seven bystanders, on December 10, 1958 in a suicide bombing instigated by Peter Duma Kamenoff and Ralph Muller.
The two disgruntled former followers had accused Venta of being a fraud who mishandled cult funds and had been intimate with their wives.

The two ex-cultists were linked to the blast by bizarre tape recordings in which they vowed: "to bring Krishna to justice". The explosion blew off the roof of an adjoining dormitory for children and touched off a brush fire that swept over 150 acres. Two children, both girls, ages 8 and 9, and a 59-year-old woman were seriously burned.

After his death two of his followers, Sister Thedra (Dorothy Leon) and Sister Wali, moved to Mount Shasta, California, where they channeled messages supposedly from him.
Fountain membership at both sites declined rapidly following his death, and the cult had ceased to exist by the mid-1970s.

It is also purported that in 1968, ten years after Krishna Venta was assassinated, another Jesus-claimant by the name of Charles Manson and his coterie (including Susan Atkins) resided for several months at the Fountain of the World. Manson had even made an unsuccessful takeover bid. He was eventually booted from the commune, and moved his group to nearby Spahn Movie Ranch. There is debate over how far Krishna Venta’s teachings influenced Charles Manson, but there are strong parallels between Venta’s apocalypse and Manson’s Helter Skelter. A bloody race war in which the whites will lose to the blacks, after which Manson's family would re-emerge from a secret cave in the desert or “hole in the earth” and take over.

Sun Myung Moon and his followers also took up residence with the Fountain of the World community for several months in 1968.

19th century


John Nichols Tom (sometimes spelt Thom; 1799 – 31 May 1838) was a Cornish wine-merchant and maltster who re-invented himself as Sir William Courtenay, stood for parliament in Canterbury, was convicted of perjury in a smuggling case, spent three years in the Kent County Lunatic Asylum, and, following his release, gathered a small band of followers and paraded in the Kent countryside. He, using the title Sir William Percy Honeywood Courtney, King of Jerusalem,
along with several of his followers, was killed in a confrontation with British Army soldiers in Bossenden Wood, in what has sometimes been called the last battle to be fought on English soil.



John Nichols Tom (or Thom) was born the son of innkeepers in 1799 at St Columb Major, Cornwall. He was baptised in the parish church on 10 November 1799. His parents were William and Charity Tom who kept the Joiners' Arms.
Tom went to school in Penryn, attending Bellevue Academy (a "Classical and Commercial Academy". At the age of about fourteen he transferred to the private school in Launceston that was run by Reverend Richard Cope, pastor of the local Congregational Church.

Tom stayed at school until he was eighteen and was then articled to solicitor Mr Paynter of St Columb. He decided, however, against a career in the law and left after three years. After a short spell as an innkeeper in Wadebridge he settled down as a clerk in the firm of Lubbock and Co, wine merchants of Truro, and took over the business when the partners retired, extending it to include malting. In 1821 he married Catherine Fisher Fulpitt, the daughter of a market gardener in Truro.
Tom was a tall, strongly built and handsome man, who became well known in Truro for his considerable sporting skill as a cricketer. During a visit to London he joined the Spencean Society.

When Tom was in his late twenties a series of personal disasters struck. His mother Charity was removed to Cornwall Lunatic Asylum in 1827, and she died there. Then, in 1828, his business premises in Pydar Street burnt down. Tom claimed the insurance and was able to rebuild the premises.
At the Quarter Sessions held at Bodmin on 15 July 1828, Tom applied successfully for the return of £304 paid in excise duty on malt destroyed in the fire at his malthouse on 17 June 1828.
In 1831 Tom received treatment from a surgeon for an "attack of insanity" but recovered sufficiently and the following spring sailed from Truro to Liverpool with a cargo of malt. He wrote to his wife from Liverpool to tell her he had sold the malt, and wrote to her again from Birmingham to tell her he was going to France. Nothing more was heard from him until over a year later, when his family heard that a man who fitted his description and went by the name of Sir William Courtenay was being held in Maidstone prison.

By January 1838, Tom had fallen out with Mr Francis, and he spent the next few months riding through East Kent, relying on the hospitality of supporters. With promises of a better future, fairer distribution of wealth and greater equality, he attracted a following of agricultural labourers, artisans and small-holders. In particular, he addressed their concerns about low wages, lack of work, and the New Poor Law, which ordered all able-bodied men to workhouses if they could not find work.
Until the end of May, the activities of Tom and his small band of followers were entirely peaceful as they marched around the local countryside trying to drum up support amongst the workers. Some wealthier landowners were however becoming alarmed and, on 31 May 1838, a local magistrate, Dr Poore, issued a warrant for Tom's arrest for inciting workmen to leave their work.

Early on the morning of 31 May, the parish constable of Boughton-under-Blean enlisted the help of his assistant and also of his brother, Nicholas Mears, and set off to find Tom. When they arrived at Bossenden Farm, where Tom and his followers were staying, Tom shot and killed Nicholas Mears. The constable and his assistant fled.
News of the murder reached the magistrates and soldiers were called out from the barracks at Canterbury. A detachment of the 45th Infantry under Major Armstrong, with three junior officers and about one hundred men, met up with the magistrates and tracked Tom and his followers down to a clearing in Bossenden Wood. Tom's followers numbered between thirty and forty (a few having managed to escape after the killing of the constable), and, with the exception of Tom and one other who had pistols, were armed only with sticks. As the soldiers advanced, Lieutenant Bennet was shot dead by Tom. In the ensuing confrontation, which lasted only a few minutes, Tom and eight of his followers were killed or mortally wounded by the soldiers, and a young special constable who was helping the soldiers was caught in their fire and killed. One soldier was slightly injured by a stick
