In some horror stories, foster parents have been found to be involved in illegal activities and use the foster kids as a cover.

The kids are put in an extremely dangerous situation, not only because of the illegal activities around them but also because they are often too scared to tell anyone what's going on.
One of the stories could be about a baby constantly getting sick due to a hidden mold problem in the nursery. The parents had no idea until the baby had repeated bouts of illness.

One horror story could be about a Snap On tool that broke right in the middle of an important job.

There was a case where a probation officer was threatened by a probationer's gang - affiliated friends.

In a military - like academy, new recruits were subjected to humiliation. They were forced to do demeaning tasks like cleaning toilets with their bare hands. This not only violated their dignity but also had a long - term negative impact on their mental health. It's a clear example of how hazing can be both psychologically and physically harmful.
In another story, a man joined Seeking Arrangements thinking he could find a nice arrangement. But he got paired with someone who was constantly lying about their financial situation.

A really bad army recruiter horror story is when they target vulnerable individuals. I knew someone who was going through a tough time at home and the recruiter took advantage of that.
