Butt Naked Returns to Liberia to Confess A chapter of world history I never knew about: this guy was basically the Flip Wilson of genocidal maniacs, right down to "The Devil Made Me Do It". The crimes involved are heinous, but the story is disconcertingly fascinating. From the Washington Post, front page of site:
