Prime Minister Cánovas del Castillo received a bouquet of flowers from Cecilio Domínguez — and a bullet. The pistol hidden among the stems ended Spain's 1897 summer. Who taught an anarchist the etiquette of assassination?

Hacked to death on his own farm by the men he employed, Eugene Terre'Blanche — South Africa's most feared white supremacist — died owing his workers two months' unpaid wages.

Billy Batts told Tommy DeSimone to 'go get your shinebox' at a Queens bar in 1970; DeSimone beat and stabbed him to death, then dug him up and reburied the body twice as heat closed in.

Majungasaurus ate its own kind — we know because its teeth left marks on its own species' bones. A cannibal confirmed not by behavior but by the wound it signed.

Bertelsmann printed millions of Nazi-era devotional books and Wehrmacht field hymnals during World War II, then commissioned a self-exonerating history in 1998. An independent commission contradicted it in full by 2002.
