From the start we're immersed in the world of Shaker worship: physical, ecstatic, crazy. It's easy to feel swept away by it. Physical movement can be a powerful force and one of the things this movie ...

Completely insane. AltNPS claimed to know the name of Alex Pretti's killer, refused to say it because "the truth always comes out," and then just deleted the post.

A man was executed on the street in my hometown, and AltNPS is using that as an excuse to vaguepost for attention.
Alt National Park Service: ICE agent identified that murdered Alex Pretti. Alt National Park Service: We will not share it here, but the truth always comes out.
