Black Wolf ScareBlack Wolf Case

The **Black Wolves**refer to a mysterious group of armed gunmen that have been sighted in various cities and towns throughout the United States of America in late 2019-early 2020. Their origin is a mystery; nobody knows who they really are or what country they're from (it is speculated that some may come from Europe).

The Black Wolves have been suspected to have been responsible for numerous forced disappearances and selective assassinations across the United States of America. However, since they cannot be traced to a government entity, cases involving the Black Wolves often go unsolved. They are the primary instigators of the "Black Wolf Scare" that swept through the United States in early 2020.

Thanks to the Black Wolf Scare, there have been numerous conspiracy theories that have arisen in both the United States and abroad regarding the nature and motives behind the Black Wolves' activities. One of the most notorious conspiracy theories to ever hit the Intenet is that these armed gunmen are actually a "secret police" employed by the United States government to kill or kidnap people as part of a government coverup. The conspiracy theory gained traction in early 2020, when a video of armed gunmen committing a brutal murder was posted on social media and went viral.

In late March of 2020, it was discovered that the Black Wolves are actually a domestic terrorist organization which has been plotting to weaponize the Coronavirus in hopes of using it as a bioweapon against terrorist threats.

## History

### The disappearances

On February 9th of 2020, a 20-year old college student and vlogger named Charlotte Brunswick, was reported missing by her family in the state of Maine. She was last seen at a friend's house on February 8th, and was supposed to return to her college campus in time for a class, but never made it back on campus. Police attempted to search for anything that may give clues as to where she was, but found nothing. What caught the attention of the authorities, however, was the fact that sometime between February 8th and February 9th, all of Charlotte's social media-her Facebook, her Instagram, her Snapchat, and even her YouTube channel-were deleted. This made it harder for the police to track her down.

With no other leads, the case eventually grew cold, until a video on YouTube appeared, which showed a group of young men attempting to stop a group of masked assailants from kidnapping Charlotte, but failed. Police were able to identify the cameraman as Dean M. Tourville, a film student from Florida. When questioned by the police, Dean revealed that he was a classmate of Charlotte's and that he and his friends had been shooting a vlog at the time of the kidnapping and that during their heroic rescue effort, one of his friends, 22-year old John L. Sullivan, was injured when one of the kidnappers opened fire with a shotgun.

Ten days later, on February 19th of that same year, two other people, Alabama natives Maria Helmsley and her daughter Dana, were also reported missing by Maria's husband Damien. Once again, both Dana and Maria's social media pages were found to have been deleted sometime before or after their disappearance. Police were now intrigued, as there was now a connection between Charlotte Brunswick and the missing Helmsleys. However, they were unable to determined whether Dana and Charlotte willingly deleted their social media before disappearing, or if they were coerced. Again, the case went unsolved.

### Public evidence of the Black Wolves

The Black Wolves were revealed to the public on February 20th of 2020, thanks to a video posted on YouTube that went viral within three days. Known as the "Black Wolf Homicide Video", the footage showed a young girl and her mother matching the descriptions of Maria and Dana Helmsley being assaulted by a group of men wearing military gear and ballistic face masks before they were both killed with an axe.

To make matters more interesting, it was recently discovered that both Maria and Charlotte were studying biology at Evergreen Institute in St. Louis, Missouri and that days before the murder, they discovered allegations that the United States government was creating a bioweapon using a mutated form of the Swine Flu, which led to a conspiracy theory that the Black Wolves were a government sanctioned death squad going around killing people as part of a government coverup.

Later that same month, another video was posted on social media, which showed some "neighborhood punks" attempting to stop a kidnapping with paintball guns. Once again, the descriptions of the kidnappers matched the description shown in the video of Maria and Dana's murder, which seemed to further prove that the conspiracy theory regarding the Black Wolves was actually a fact.

On February 21st, 2020, another video surfaced, this time showing the Black Wolves kidnapping 16-year old Andrea DeMottis, a friend and neighbor of the Brunswick family, while she was walking home from school. As before, Andrea's social media accounts were found to have been deleted during the police investigation.

### Charlotte is found

On March 5th, 2020, Charlotte Brunswick was found alive in the forests of Maine by hikers, along with Andrea DeMottis. Having sustained some heavy injuries, Charlotte and Andrea were admitted to a hospital in Augusta. Upon looking at her physical state, the hospital staff and the police were baffled that Charlotte was able to survive for so long, considering it had been nine days since she'd been reported missing. Andrea was also found to have suffered a broken rib and a fractured hand.

When questioned by police, Charlotte claimed that armed men wearing ballistic face masks kidnapped her on the way back to her apartment from her college campus on the evening of February 9th, and drove her to the woods with the intention of murdering her. On February 21st, her kidnappers introduced her to their new victim, who happened to be Andrea DeMottis. While in captivity, Andrea and Charlotte were fed poisoned food to weaken their immune systems in order to prevent them from resisting, and they were subjected to humiliation as their captors made video recordings of them begging for their lives during mock executions, which were then posted on the Dark Web. On February 22nd, Charlotte and Andrea began to make a plan to escape, but before they could put it into action, they were again forced into a video recording session, albeit this time Charlotte and Andrea were recorded on camera being tortured by the Black Wolves, with one of the captors in particular breaking Andrea's arm when she tried to fight back.

The girls also revealed that the Black Wolves broke into their captives' cellphones and deleted all their social media before destroying their cellphones with flamethrowers. After overhearing them talking about murdering her as part of a snuff film on February 31st, Charlotte and Andrea escaped their hideout in the woods at midnight, and spent four days making their way through the woods, evading her kidnappers long enough to make it back to civilization.

Charlotte and Andrea's testimony provided hope for the police that these masked men could be possibly identified, since her description of her attackers matched the descriptions of the attackers who killed Dana Helmsley and her mother in the "Black Wolf Homicide" footage. Because Charlotte and Andrea were paranoid about the masked men finding them again, police officers were sent to guard their homes and it was arranged that both girls would be given police escorts to and from school once they were discharged from the hospital.

### Public retaliation

With the existence of the Black Wolves now public knowledge, various local governments across the United States began instituting curfews in order to prevent future murders. People were told to not stay out later than 5:00 PM. However, the Black Wolves countered this by becoming more brazen in their attacks, going as far as to killing people in broad daylight; on March 20, 2020, Charlotte Brunswick's boyfriend Chadwick Ferguson, was killed by the Black Wolves during mass shooting at a local shopping mall in Augusta, Maine. The attack prompted a police manhunt for the Black Wolves.

By this time, word of the Black Wolves' rampage across the United States had reached the United States government, and the US President declared a national emergency. National Guard soldiers were deployed to multiple US cities to assist local law enforcement in their manhunt for the Black Wolf members. In addition to this, various vigilante gangs were formed across the country, aiming to protect friends and family members from the marauding Black Wolves.
