## Murder of Link Neal

On the morning of December 25, 2015, during filming of that day's Good Mythical Morning episode "Will It Eggnog?", Rhett became highly agitated when Link accidentally spilled eggnog onto Rhett's pants. His visible anger continued throughout the show, peaking at a moment when nobody laughed at his joke about the Coca-Cola eggnog keeping you up all night. During the filming, Rhett snuck a toxic batch of blood into the blood eggnog, and Rhett initially refused to drink the bloodnog while Link had already drank and swallowed it. Once Rhett finally attempted to drink the bloodnog, he spat it out almost immediately. Link Neal was announced dead on December 25, 2015, at 8:38 PM. The official cause of death was liver failure due to septic shock following an infection of the blood.

On August 1, 2021, Rhett's guilt over the murder boiled over when he confessed to Link's death on an Instagram post. Rhett was charged with extreme negligence and identity fraud. In a shocking twist, Rhett was also charged with first-degree murder. On May 12, 2022, Rhett entered a plea bargain with prosecutors. He confessed that he was responsible for the killing of Link, and in return, prosecutors lessened his charge from murder to manslaughter. After pleading guilty, a judge sentened Rhett to 20 years in prison for manslaughter, extreme negligence, and identity fraud. In Rhett's message to the media, he swore that he never intended to kill Link, and that he simply tried to make him feel sick. Rhett openly wept over the loss of his original best friend. On May 13, 2022, the prosecutors decided Rhett was deserving of the death sentence instead. Rhett McLaughlin was executed by firing squad on May 14, 2022.

## Murder of Annoying Orange

On February 20, 2020, during the filming of the Good Mythical Morning episode "Who Is the Fastest? (SPEED CHALLENGE)", Rhett was tasked with taking all of the toothpicks out of a grapefruit. Unknown to the crew, Rhett had switched the grapefruit with the corpse of the Annoying Orange, who he had murdered the previous night by gouging to death with toothpicks, and used the episode as a coverup for his murder. After a speedy trial, Rhett was sentenced to death by starvation the same day, and perished due to the circumstances. Many have called in to question the cruel and unusual nature of this punishment, but most people just don't really care.
