Summary

It all started with a Hollywood divorce. The joint statement released by both parties seemed amicable enough, but the public wanted more. They wanted to know the intimate details of the relationship’s downfall. They say 50% of marriages end in divorce, so the odds weren’t in their favor to begin with, but nobody expected it to go down like this. Very quickly, a public divorce turned into allegations of assault, abuse, and cannibalism. One of Hollywood’s own leading men allegedly had a string of victims whom he wanted to eat. Texts about him wanting to cook their ribs, their skin, see their brains, and do horrible things to them were released. And once that broke the news, people started digging into his family history and they found an empire. An empire of ruthless, egotistical, sexually deviant men. Let’s talk about the Hammers.
