In this gripping episode of Lights Out, hosts Charissa and Ian dive into a series of bizarre, disturbing, and often unsolved crimes centered around extreme bodily function violations and public indecency. From the infamous 'Bowel Movement Bandit' of Akron, Ohio, who defecated on parked cars and children's toys over three years, to the 'Mad Pooper' in Colorado Springs who repeatedly targeted one homeowner’s lawn, the episode exposes a disturbing pattern of individuals using feces as a weapon of terror. The narrative expands to include the 'Toesuck Fairy' Michael Wyatt, a registered sex offender with a decades-long obsession with sucking people's toes, and shocking cases involving inanimate objects—like a man engaging with a vacuum cleaner in a Florida resort hallway or another man having sex with a bicycle in a hostel. The episode culminates in the most shocking case: a Catholic priest caught filming a pornographic video on his church’s altar with two dominatrices, leading to his defrocking and public scandal. Throughout, the hosts explore the psychology behind these acts, questioning where private fixation ends and public crime begins, and highlight how societal disgust often outweighs legal consequences—especially when the acts involve taboo bodily functions or sacred spaces.
Public acts involving bodily functions—like defecation, toe-sucking, or sex with inanimate objects—become criminal when they occur in visible, shared spaces.
Many of these crimes go unsolved or result in minimal punishment, despite their psychological and emotional toll on victims.
The line between obsession and criminal behavior blurs when private fixations invade public life, especially in places like schools, churches, or homes.
Victims of these crimes often suffer long-term trauma, including PTSD and loss of trust in personal safety and sacred spaces.
The Catholic priest scandal reveals how sacred institutions can become sites of extreme violation, with consequences extending beyond the law into spiritual and communal betrayal.
The Bowel Movement Bandit of Akron
“He's like, I've been caught. I've been had. Just like that, no more cars. No more sunroofs. No more late night violations. It seemed like just being seen, even without being identified, was enough to stop the spree.”
The Mad Pooper of Colorado Springs
“She said, so I come outside and I'm like, are you serious? Are you really taking a poop right here in front of my kids? And she's like, yeah, sorry. That's all you got to say.”
The Poop Crimes That Keep Coming
The hosts explore other bizarre poop-related crimes, including a Norwegian golf course groundskeeper who discovered feces in golf holes for over a decade, an Ohio man mailing feces to politicians, and a school superintendent defecating on a football field. These cases reveal a disturbing global pattern of using feces as a form of public disruption.
The Toesuck Fairy and the Obsession with Feet
“He pleaded no contest to violating the terms of a deferred sentence and served another year in prison. Police described the case as something they'd never encountered before.”
Sex with Inanimate Objects: From Bicycles to Vacuums
The episode shifts to cases where individuals engage in sexual acts with objects like bicycles, vacuums, drains, and even ambulances. These acts, often public, are prosecuted based on exposure and public indecency, not the object itself.
“Knowing that a porno was shot on your altar. It might make it hard to worship Christ. Absolutely. Cursed as well. Good God.”
“He's like, I've been caught. I've been had. Just like that, no more cars. No more sunroofs. No more late night violations. It seemed like just being seen, even without being identified, was enough to stop the spree.”
“I'm not here to steal anything. I'm there to suck toes.”
