Eden & Briana
that. Too bad.
00:06:49
Eden & Briana
So,
00:06:53
Eden & Briana
I'm probably going to butcher these names, but I'm going to do my absolute best. Today, i will be covering Cayetano Santos Gardino, also known as El Petiso Orjudio.
00:07:15
Eden & Briana
Okay. I'm sorry. Meaning the big-eared midget. Oh, that's what that means. Okay. Cayentano was born on October 31st, 1896 to... This is an old one. Very old.
00:07:32
Eden & Briana
Nice. Okay. To Fiora Gardino and Lucia Ruffo. Cayentano was one of eight boys. The family were Italian, that's why I'm butchering these new names, hey but chose to move to Argentina in the hopes of bettering their lives.
00:07:53
Eden & Briana
Okay. However, the parents were abusive alcoholics. Not okay. Now, before Cayentano was born, Fior had actually contracted syphilis.
00:08:10
Eden & Briana
And this caused serious health problems for Cayetano. It's going to be a rough one. um It doesn't say if the mother drank alcohol during pregnancy or not, but kind of considering the times and who knows if they knew if alcohol was bad during pregnancy at this time.
00:08:34
Eden & Briana
Right. um how So anyways,
00:08:41
Eden & Briana
Can I just call him Kay? Sure. Why not? Cause you try saying it. Nope. Kay and Tana. Kay and Tano. Kay and Tano.
00:08:51
Eden & Briana
Kay and Tano. Kay and Tano showed signs of violence in his early childhood. He started off by playing with fire and enjoyed killing cats and birds.
00:09:08
Eden & Briana
Due to his violent behavior, He had zero interest in school education, and this caused him to jump from school to school. Okay.
00:09:19
Eden & Briana
When Kay was seven years old, he decided to beat two-year-old Miguel D. Paoli. After he beat Miguel, he just threw him in the ditch like he was trash.
00:09:33
Eden & Briana
Luckily, and official saw what happened and took the kids down to the police station where their mothers were called to come pick up their kids. I'm not sure if charges were pressed or not or what came of this situation, but I'm going to safely assume that nothing was done because of how far he gets to go in his crimes before dealt with.
00:10:03
Eden & Briana
he so So, um just one year later in 1905, Kay beat a child in his own neighborhood named Anna Neary.
00:10:17
Eden & Briana
Thankfully, a police officer jumped in into motion and stopped him. He was arrested, but due to his young age, he was released from jail. Okay.
Cayetano's Crimes and Court Failures
00:10:28
Eden & Briana
How old would he have been at that time? Oh, shit. You're going to make me do math? too 896, 97, 98, 99. I think it didn't. Didn't I say seven?
00:10:39
Eden & Briana
Yeah. When he was seven years old. Okay. Yep. And then a year later. So he'd be eight. Yes. Eight. Okay. Oh, God. fuck
00:10:52
Eden & Briana
Thankfully, a police officer jumped into motion and stopped him. I said that already. And he was arrested, but due to his... Yep, I said that. Cool. but Sorry, guys.
00:11:03
Eden & Briana
I'm trying. Life has been lifing pretty hard on me lately, so I'm trying to get back into the motion of things. oh Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Let me do an S here. Womp womp.
00:11:16
Eden & Briana
I got the evil eye. When Kay was 10 years old... His parents discovered that he was compulsive masturbating.
00:11:28
Eden & Briana
Okay. Fior and Lucia didn't know what to do or how to handle this situation properly, so they called the police and Kay ended up serving a two-month sentence in jail.
00:11:42
Eden & Briana
For masturbating? Yes. oh Like I said, they didn't know how to handle the situation properly. Okay. In 1906, Kay committed his first committed his first murder, three-year-old Maria Rosa Fasse.
00:12:05
Eden & Briana
Okay, so he was how old then? Nine. No, 10. 10. Okay. 10 or 11. Okay. He would have been 10 because 96 to 06, he was 10. Okay.
00:12:18
Eden & Briana
and
00:12:21
Eden & Briana
He took her to the wasteland on Rio de Janeiro Street, where he tried to strangle her. He then buried her alive in a ditch and covered her with a bunch of cans.
00:12:35
Eden & Briana
Unfortunately, this was a cold case, and the only reason it was solved was because he admitted to killing her years later. When police went to the wasteland to locate her remains, a two-story house had been built.
00:12:50
Eden & Briana
Oh. And heartbreakingly enough, her body has never been found. Oh. It gets worse. Okay. So she suffocated to death because he buried her alive.
00:13:04
Eden & Briana
Correct. Wow. okay On January fire. nineteen twelve kay decided to set a warehouse on fire When police arrested him, he told them, and I quote, I like to see firemen working.
00:13:20
Eden & Briana
It's nice to see how they fall into the fire, unquote. Oh, my. Okay. This next murder, there aren't any details on it, but on January 26, 1912, the body of 13-year-old Arturo Llorona was found dead in an abandoned house.
00:13:46
Eden & Briana
Just one and a half months later, on March 7th, 1912, Kay set a dress on fire on the body of five-year-old Reina Vainikoff.
00:14:03
Eden & Briana
Sadly, she died. she Sadly, she did not recover from the burns and died a few days later. Hmm.
00:14:15
Eden & Briana
So being on this fire spree, this shithead decided to set a train station on fire, but luckily it was put out and the damages were very minimal.
00:14:30
Eden & Briana
Now on November 8th, 1912, he tried strangling eight-year-old Roberto Russo. He was arrested and charged with attempted murder.
00:14:42
Eden & Briana
However, the court dropped the ball and released him until his trial.
00:14:50
Eden & Briana
Okay. Now, with everything I just told you, his track record sucks. Big time. three But yeah, let's just release him until his trial and hope that he doesn't do anything stupid.
00:15:07
Eden & Briana
You think he behaved? Absolutely not. You are correct.
00:15:13
Eden & Briana
Literally eight days later. Oh my gosh. He assaulted three-year-old Carmen Gheitoni.
00:15:28
Eden & Briana
Police were able to intervene, but Kay ran off and Carmen walked away with minor injuries, thankfully. But I'm sure she had some trauma.
00:15:38
Eden & Briana
Of course she did. Two days later. Boy, he doesn't wait long, does he? On November 20th, he kidnapped two-year-old Carolina Neolenur.
00:15:57
Eden & Briana
Carolina was about to cry out, and a neighbor heard her and took action to save her. So, K was probably frustrated that his last two attempts failed.
00:16:14
Eden & Briana
So he resorted back to fire and lit two sheds up into flames, but they were put out fairly quickly. and it's He doesn't stop there though, and it gets quite grosser.
00:16:28
Eden & Briana
And I'm sorry if I ruin your birthday for you. What?
00:16:34
Eden & Briana
On December 3rd. No!
00:16:38
Eden & Briana
Kay promised three-year-old
00:16:44
Eden & Briana
Jesualdo Giordano, who was playing in his yard, promised to buy him candy if he would go with him.
00:16:57
Eden & Briana
Oh, geez. He kept giving the three-year-old candy on their way to a country house. Once he got the little boy into the house, he quickly knocked him to the floor and tried strangling him with his belt, but he did not... Spit it out.
00:17:19
Eden & Briana
But he did not succeed. Okay.
00:17:24
Eden & Briana
He then decided to cut his belt into pieces so he could tie the little boy's wrists and ankles. He started beating him and during this attack, he had the idea of hitting him in the head with a hammer.
00:17:39
Eden & Briana
Oh.
00:17:43
Eden & Briana
Oh.
00:17:46
Eden & Briana
Kay went outside looking for a nail. While looking for a nail, Kay ran into the little boy's father who had been looking for his son.
00:18:00
Eden & Briana
Kay told the father he had not seen the boy or where he was. here After that interaction, Kay found a nail, entered the country house where the little boy is tied up.
00:18:15
Eden & Briana
He began hammering the nail into the side of Gesualdo's head. Oh, God. When he was done, he quickly hid the body Unfortunately, the boy's father ended up finding his son's body.
Cayetano's Incarceration and Mysterious Death
00:18:37
Eden & Briana
And this is where it's awful. I'm gonna just take a drink because
00:18:47
Eden & Briana
this sucks.
00:18:51
Eden & Briana
During the boy's wake, Kay was present at this little boy's wake. Kay.
00:19:03
Eden & Briana
He went up to the body and touched the boy's skull where he had hammered the nail in. What the hell?
00:19:15
Eden & Briana
The next day on December 4th, Kay was arrested where he confessed to every single crime he did. Now medical reports declared Kay insane So the judge discontinued the case and ordered him to stay in the reformatory where he actually tried killing some of the other inmates.
00:19:40
Eden & Briana
He spent nearly three years in the reformatory until November 12, 1915, when an appeal was approved. What?
00:19:51
Eden & Briana
Which ordered him to be moved to jail on November 20th. Okay. okay In March of 1923, Gaetano was transferred to Ushuaia. Oh, I had this one too. I looked it up. and Ushuaia?
00:20:13
Eden & Briana
U-S-H-U-A-I-A. Yeah, okay. Ushuaia. I don't know. Penitentiary. 1933, and nineteen thirty three Kay decided to kill two inmates' pet cats.
00:20:30
Eden & Briana
oh Oh. Those inmates beat him so badly that he spent quite a bit of time in the hospital. Can't say that I'm sorry. No.
00:20:43
Eden & Briana
According to one source, from 1935 his death in 1944, he was always and he had visitors see him. he was always ill and he had no visitors um see him Which, why would anybody want to see a monster like that?
00:21:00
Eden & Briana
Exactly. um His death was under suspicious circumstances. However, there was quite a bit of speculation that he died from internal bleeding that was caused by a gastrous outbreak.
00:21:17
Eden & Briana
Gastric? Gastritis? Gastrous. Gastrous. Gastrous outbreak.
00:21:26
Eden & Briana
Later, when the hospital was eventually torn down and authorities were digging up inmate remains, Kay's remains had miss mysteriously disappeared.
00:21:39
Eden & Briana
And to this day, his remains have not been found. And with that, I say good fucking riddance. What the fuck?

Books and Audiobooks: Hosts' Recommendations
00:23:37
Eden & Briana
was brutal. I didn't like writing this one. But, like, anytime, like, I do research, I have to go with one that jumps out at me and, like, intrigues me. Because if I try to do one that's I don't want to say it's not interesting. it just, at that point in time, it doesn't gravitate towards me.
00:24:00
Eden & Briana
Same. So it doesn't like... You don't write good if you're not into it. Yeah. It's just like It's weird. It's like a freaking book. When you pick up a book, if you if it doesn't grab you, you never finish the damn thing.
00:24:12
Eden & Briana
Yep. Which book did I DNF?
00:24:16
Eden & Briana
Just recently.
00:24:19
Eden & Briana
Ask for Andrew. I haven't heard of that It's a psychological one. But it was like... Who wrote it? I want to say Lucinda Barry, but I don't know.
00:24:33
Eden & Briana
i'm I've been listening to more... and i I started off being psychological. But then doing the podcast and working with kids at my work...
00:24:49
Eden & Briana
It was almost too much. her So I switched
00:24:55
Eden & Briana
Dark Romance. Oh, we know. And it's weird. Have you finished that series yet? Which one? The Butcher and Blackbird. Oh, yeah. I love that. All four of them?
00:25:06
Eden & Briana
Or three of them? Yeah. Scythe and Sparrow? Mm-hmm. Yep. um But that one that I did not finish was... um
00:25:19
Eden & Briana
Well, Pete, I'll tell you here in a minute. I tried to see if that author of The Butcher and Blackbird had any more out, and she doesn't. No, I think she's kind of a newer author. She needs to get with it. I know.
00:25:31
Eden & Briana
i like I think I like the narrators.
00:25:36
Eden & Briana
The narrators were good in those books. Yes. I agree. I don't think it was that long. Because if I had to sit down and read a book, it'd never get done. At least I can have an ear pod in my ear and listen to a book while doing something. Yeah. Yeah.
00:25:50
Eden & Briana
yeah and i'm not goingnna lie i do miss the smell of a brand new book, but time for that. I h o y I h L I I I L L I L L I L L I L L I L L I I L I L I L I I L I I'm gonna go with that.
00:26:15
Eden & Briana
I tried. Like, I got like 50% through it and I'm like, can't. Don't, you hit that 50% mark though, don't you gotta finish? Yes, but I just, it was so boring.
00:26:28
Eden & Briana
Like, it was like, almost unnecessary. Oh. I don't know. And that's my own opinion.
00:26:42
Eden & Briana
There's other people that love the book. Oh, um yeah, I know. There's like I've read recommended books. Not read. I shouldn't say read. I've listen listened to recommended books. And I'm like, why? you know, I could wasted a credit on this. Why?
00:26:57
Eden & Briana
I could never get into podcasts until morbid. And then I suffered the little children. And then I always read books on my Kindle, my paperweight.
00:27:12
Eden & Briana
And then me and my best friend, we wanted to like share some books and whatnot. And she's like, well, i do audiobook.
00:27:25
