I knew something was wrong with her the day she came for the interview her whole demeanor seemed odd to me she had these old-framed glasses and a Stern face but she somehow managed to impress us with her professional Behavior she said her name was Jolene I took her to the children's bedrooms one after the other she didn't seem much interested though the way she walked was weird too her upper body was slouched showing her layered belly I showed her where the toiletries are kept but she was more interested in watching TV in the Holocaust Jolene
Jolene yeah did you hear what I just said sorry I got distracted please pay attention soon Jolene became a presence in the house my five-year-old son and two-year-old daughter are shy kids they never made a fuss Jolene was good with them but she hardly interact with my kids she always kept to her job this is the only reason she kept being our kids Nanny but soon things started to change one day I entered my son's room and saw him holding his breath Jolene was folding his clothes and saying don't cheat now you know you made
a mistake I opened the door and said what's going on here my son's face was turning red I rushed towards him and screamed stop it my son exhaled deeply I turned towards Jolene why was he holding his breath no mama what the Jolene is this what you're teaching my kids my husband rushed into the room hearing my voice I explained everything we both warned Jolene not to punish our kids no matter what she must inform us first and we will decide what happens next Jolene obviously didn't seem much happy about it I was so mad
at her but I couldn't kick her out of the house because of my husband I avoided her and cut off her wage for her behavior with my son every day after work Jolene would ask my permission before going home so one day I was busy doing our taxes it was around 7pm my kids have yet to go to bed they wanted to play for some time more so I let them Jolene asked me can I go home now stay until they go to bed okay she didn't say anything just looked at me in a very
creepy way a smirk came to her face and she silently left time went by and I tucked my kids into bed my husband and I had dinner and went to bed as usual it was around two in the morning I woke up feeling thirsty I came down and didn't bother to switch in the light the pale Moonlight from the window was enough to get by I poured water into the glass when I felt a deep breath on my shoulder I turned around and saw a pair of eyes glowing behind me the owner of the eyes
brought her face closer and I saw it was Jolene can I go home now ma'am you told me to stay so good Lord Jolene yes you can go home I woke my husband up and he drove Jolene home one day I took my kids to the park for a small picnic Jolene was holding the pram with my daughter in it my son ran ahead of us pointing out to a tree we sat under the shade of it and my kids played right in front of my eyes while I had some fresh juice Jolene was standing
in the corner when I saw her looking at a woman her face changed she got nervous and the woman too has started approaching her now the woman came to us and hugged Jolene how are you now uh fine oh what are you doing here I got shifted to the hospital here anyways take care she laughed and I was confused Jolene how do you know this woman I had an accident last year she was a nurse at the Harrington Hospital she took good care of me I couldn't believe her words because the woman said similar things
that made sense about this explanation but deep down inside I doubted it all it was a Saturday night my husband and I went out for dinner with a couple of friends Jolene looked off more than ever she hardly spoke a word after that incident in the park kissing my kids goodbye and left in the car with my husband on the way back I called to the hospital where Jolene was admitted I asked about jolene's record and they said they gave me the shocking news Jolene was a patient there but she never had any accidents she
was there for three years in the psychiatric ward I knew she was crazy I I knew there was something wrong with her head my husband never drove faster than that day in our entire life when we reached home our house was in complete darkness all the lights were turned off we ran in Jolene back Jolene but it was dead silence we walked upstairs and I began hearing this flashing sound I walked into my daughter's bedroom and she was not there in her bed the bathroom door was wide open light coming from it along with the
flashing sound with my shaking body and racing heart I peeked inside the bathroom I saw Jolene sitting on the floor facing her back at me she had a knife in her hand soaked in blood she was stabbing something repeatedly suddenly realizing my presence she looked back and I saw a demon hiding in human form her huge grin told me what I had lost oh the story you just saw is Loosely based on the terrifying crime in the late afternoon of October 25th 2012 at the La Rochelle apartment building on the upper west side of Manhattan
Lucia and Leo Crim aged six and two were murdered by their Nanny yaslin Ortega she was convicted of stabbing the children to death with kitchen knives while their mother Marina Crim and three-year-old sister Nessie were a few blocks away at a swimming lesson Upon returning home their mother and sister found Lucy on Leo dead in a bathtub at the family apartment on February 22nd 2018 12 jurors were chosen for Ortega's trial an opening statements began on March 1st in Manhattan Supreme Court on April 18 2018 Ortega was found guilty of first-degree murder and second-degree murder
Ortega was sentenced on May 14 2018 to life in prison without the possibility of parole one time I took a babysitting gig on Halloween night it was a couple named Tillman who had a seven-year-old daughter Pamela when I reached their house Mr and Miss Hillman were ready to go out Miss Tillman took me inside and pointed out the freezer there's plenty of food eat whatever you like and there's extra cash on the kitchen desk to order pizza Pam has gone to bed already so you won't have anything to worry about outside and she rushed to
the door saying I'll just be three houses away also you have my number have a nice time Mrs Tillman I watched her driving off in a car I closed the door and punched the security code to lock the house the house was massive and with the Halloween decor it felt spooky to be the only one awake I walked to the kitchen from the big kitchen window I saw kids running outside I opened the freezer and took a can of ginger ale I returned to the living room and switched on the TV to watch a scary
movie just then my eyes noticed the half Open Door of Miss Tillman's room it almost gave me a heart attack I could see two bright glowing Fireballs glowing in that Darkness I would have screamed if the lightning didn't occur Illuminating the clown statue inside Miss Tillman's bedroom I exhaled then got up to go to the room a storm was about to come I could hear the dark clouds Rumble my hands searched the wall beside the doorway and I turned on the lights what the hell it was the Statue of a Jester the professional clown who
used to perform in court play it was the first time I had seen something like this it had a pointy oddly shaped head his eyes were sharp and Broad his attire seemed funny but only his smile wasn't amusing enough it was something very wrong with his smile I noticed the Hat with the Bell attached under the statue it must have fallen from his head I picked it up and put it back on his bald head I looked closely into his eyes they were looking behind me so they were not precisely creating eye contact oh God
the doorbell scared me who Could It Be At This Hour I opened the door to see an empty porch slow rain had started by then and the streets were deserted everyone had gone home I checked around but saw no one thinking it was a prank I went back in locked the door and suddenly noticed the room upstairs the room door was wide open that's where Pamela Miss Tillman's seven-year-old daughter sleeps I tiptoed and peeked inside Pam wasn't in her bed which quickly gave me goosebumps Pam Pam this isn't funny are you hiding in here somewhere
Pam sorry it's Halloween oh you little demon you gave me a heart attack I tucked her back into bed and climbed downstairs I forgot to switch off the light in this Tillman's room as I went to do that I again noticed the clown statue it made me very uncomfortable so I grabbed the bed sheet and covered the creepy statue I then Switched Off the Light and closed the door I came back from watching the TV when Miss Tillman called me hi I was wondering if you could stay for two more hours my husband will drop
you home once we get back I'll pay you a little extra Jess sure works for me oh and Mrs Tillman yes I hope you don't mind I covered the clown statue in your bedroom it was freaking me out so what what statue we don't have any clown statues honey my phone slicked and fell to the ground I heard it break into pieces but I couldn't move my legs felt dumb my body was shaking in fear I slowly turned around facing Miss Tillman's bedroom door it was so close the heavy rainstorm was going on outside I
felt my heart racing because there was no way I was mistaken about this clown statue I opened the door and switched on the lights what I saw made my stomach drop there was no statue in the bedroom only the bed sheet lying curled up on the floor looking for me Jessica following the spine chilling voice I turned to the closet on my right and there he was standing inside the closet I could make out his shadowy appearance and his glowing eyes but there was something new added to his costume a baseball bat oh my God
I freaked out finally all this time but I assumed to be a lifeless statue was some creep dressed like a freaky Halloween clown I rushed to the door and heard heavy footsteps behind me I looked back and saw him walking towards me laughing and Swinging his back I kept trying and screaming as I rushed upstairs but he grabbed me by my feet and pulled me down my body scrubbed against the hard wooden stairs as I got dragged by this evil psycho as I lay on the ground watching him lift his baseball bat with a huge
grin my life flashed before my eyes see you in hell Jess I heard Miss Tillman's voice in Her loud knocking on the door Jess Jess is sobbing like a nine-year-old thinking maybe he would swing the giant bat at me now my brain would be scattered and no one would know who did this but he didn't and said he gave me a death stare and said done for the day I guess happy Halloween he then ran to the kitchen the sound of the window getting smashed echoed in the house and I fainted I woke up at
the hospital the next day Mr and Miss Tillman reported to the cops and came to the hospital as well I told them everything that I experienced it's been three days now there's no information on that guy who snooped inside the house and dressed as a clown the cops got reports of three home invasions and one murder that same night was it all him or were there more like him I don't know I'm just happy the kid didn't encounter that freak or she would have been traumatized for life there used to be this girl I babysat
when I was in high school and she was in Primary School her name was Rachel she was the oldest of three girls and in pretty much every way possible she was perfect her young siblings would always Faithfully follow her example which made babysitting for that family the easiest job I ever had she was so beautiful too and I knew she would have a bright future and would be loved by everyone in her life honestly I was a little jealous of that but I was still sad when she got old enough to take care of herself
and her younger siblings then eventually I went off to college so for several years I never saw Rachel or her family in my third year of studying psychology I finally had a reason to reach out to her and catch up I was doing a study on the effects of meditation and I needed some subjects since I could use anybody for the study I decided that the first person I wanted to use was Rachel she was perfect person hello hi is this Rachel it's me Caroline Oh my God Caroline it's been so long how are you
I'm good I've been very busy with college I missed you a lot I missed you too I've been struggling a bit with high school it was better when you were here helping me with my homework so anyway what made you call well I might have an opportunity for you to make some money I just need to pick your brain about a few things and ask that you keep it a secret hmm how much money a hundred dollars a hundred dollars deal great can you meet me tomorrow I sure can I'll be at the Richmond station
around 5 30 once I get off school I was excited to meet up with Rachel as soon as possible I wasn't in any rush to finish the study but I just wanted to see her again I made sure to be there to meet her just before she got there describe just how my heart fluttered when I saw Rachel again she was even more amazing than I remembered but the greatest part about seeing her then was that instead of hanging out at her parents house with her other siblings I got to take her over to my
house for the first time just us we caught up on the train ride over to my part of town and we got so talkative that I completely forgot to mention the study I was doing when we got off the train and started walking to my apartment we passed by a pizza place we were both a little hungry so we decided to stop in and get a pie afterwards I also picked up a case of beer Rachel was a little apprehensive to drink but I assured her it wouldn't be a problem um I'm not sure I'm
old enough for that Caroline oh don't worry about it I'm not your babysitter anymore it won't hurt to loosen up a little well if you say so when we reached my apartment we hung out for a couple more hours eating pizza drinking beer and just laughing and reminiscing about the old days really having the best of times then out of nowhere I remembered I was supposed to be doing a study on Rachel oh crap I forgot all about it I'm sorry I should have reminded you no it's okay we can still do it let me
just set up the room the study involved recording the difference in a person's mood before and after a 15-minute session of meditation there was more to it than that but it's been so many years since then I could hardly remember I started with a short questionnaire then I lit some candles and turned off the lights then I guided Rachel through a simple practice of meditation controlling her breathing letting go of her thoughts and becoming mindful of her body and her surroundings something strange started happening after a few minutes though after I got Rachel in a
good State and let her be for a bit I was supposed to check in on her and ask her the same questions as before however she had become almost unresponsive like she could barely hear me or even remember that I was there she wouldn't open her eyes either and even when she did try to respond to me her words were so slurred together that I couldn't understand a word she was saying then out of nowhere she fell back on the bed and passed out Rachel are you okay she only got worse from there twitching like
she was having some kind of seizure and foaming at the mouth oh my God Rachel oh wake up I tried to shake her from the episode but she was inconsolable it was almost like she was possessed oh Rachel please are you in there Rachel Rachel if you're awake tell me now there was no response from her just just silence perfect ly my plan was working a bunch of greasy food some alcohol a bit of calming meditation and a whole lot of sleeping pills crushed up and sprinkled on her slices of pizza while she wasn't looking
was making her totally catatonic and vulnerable now she was completely defenseless I grabbed the telephone cord on my nightstand and wrapped it around Rachel's neck and then squeezed with all my might but then somehow Rachel woke up she was stronger than I thought but I was always bigger than her [Music] foreign [Music] 1999 an Australian girl named Rachel Barber unknowingly made a decision that would cost her life her once trusted babysitter Caroline Robertson offered Rachel a seemingly easy and harmless way to earn a bit of Quick Cash little did Rachel know Caroline had long been
jealous of her looks and natural talents and planned to literally replace her and become her for this to happen Caroline hatched a plan to lure Rachel into a trap where she would make it seem like the teenage girl had run away from home and disappeared but in reality Caroline planned to make sure Rachel was never seen alive again afterwards Caroline planned to lose 50 pounds get a nose job and then even change her name to Rachel Barber however after a week of searching for their missing daughter Caroline Robertson was connected to The Disappearance and brought
into custody it took her months to finally admit to the truth of what she did Caroline Robertson was convicted in sentenced to 20 years in prison but she was released five years early in 2015.
