Tanzanian Albino Murders
There are many fascinating mysteries of Tanzania; among them, its surprisingly high level of albinism. Albinism afflicts roughly 1 in every 3,000 Tanzanians, a far higher rate than in the rest of the world. (For example, in the United States roughly 1 in every 20,000 people is born with albinism.)
Unfortunately, Tanzania is also the heart of albino murders. Folk medicine has it that albinos A) are not human, and B) possess magical powers. This has led to the murder of approximately 25 albino Tanzanians a year. Their limbs, their bones, their hair, and their organs are sold on the black market for a shockingly high price.
