ABSTRACT

Five undergraduates were found murdered in the most horrifying way in New Mexico: flayed alive, mutilated and impaled. One girl named Ingrid Greisen escaped but it turned out that she was part of the gang that had carried out the killing. She had been kidnapped by her own father who wanted to protect her from the gang. The reason? She, as well as the rest of the gang, was a member of a cult group that brainwashed its members. The cult group leader who called himself “Grandfather” had indoctrinated them with the beliefs in Native American religion and instigated them to carry out the killing to reclaim the local Apache lands.
