Black Roses: Origin Before the bodies. Before the headlines. Before I Need Therapy, there was just a boy—Dominic Charles. Born and raised in Glen Burnie, Maryland, he had the charm, the talent, and the promise of a bright future. But beneath it all lurked something darker. The kind of darkness no one saw coming. The whispers in his mind. The moments that shaped him. The choices that led him down a path no one could have predicted. You think you know him. You read his story, filled in the gaps, and made your own conclusions. But Dominic’s journey didn’t start in Georgia. It started long before, buried in the shadows of his past. Before you find out what happened after, you need to understand what came before. Because monsters aren’t born overnight. They’re made. And this is how Dominic Charles was made.
