Most High School predictions aren't precursors for how our lives will go. But the students of Sioux City High School voting Hugo Selenski "Most Likely to be in Detention For Life," seems pretty accurate. A career criminal who escaped a maximum security area of a prison, stole large amounts from mulitple other criminals and had several bodies buried in his backyard, it looks like he will not be outside of prison walls for the foreseeable future if ever. One of the bodies in his yard is still unidentified but we know that several agencies are working on this now...

Found in 2018 buried in a very shallow grave wrapped in cloth with a rose on her chest, someone loved this woman. Perhaps they were afraid to call police since she was found with drugs in her system. Or maybe they could not afford a funeral. But for sure she was loved. SOMEONE has to know this woman. SOMEONE must recognize her clothing, her jewelry, the new 3-D model of her features. Its a joint effort with the Hamilton County Coroner, the BCI of Ohio, Cincinnati Police and other agencies trying to identify her.

Even though there was a "confession" proffered by an inveterate liar, Joran Van Der Sloot, I am not sure I will ever believe him. He has told so many lies about what happened that night. This explanation seems like it could be what happened but I will never trust him. If it brings some peace to her parents and loved ones I guess that is the best we can ask for. But its never going to be enough.

Telling her sister she would return the next day and then going missing for 14 months before her body was found was not what was supposed to happen.

Chad O'Melia was murdered by Bryn Spejcher that is not in dispute. What is definitely in dispute is the reason why Ventura County DA Erik Nasarenko lowered the original charge of murder filed by former DA Greg Totten. Lowering the charge to involuntary manslaughter and having Spejcher plead not guilty is the latest insult.  Her jury trial begins October 23rd, 2023. Chad's family is asking anyone who would like to get involved to email or call DA Nasarenko at 805-654-2501 or erik.nasarenko@ventura.org You do NOT have to be a resident of Ventura County or even California.

Perm (shortened version of his name) Gilbert was the go-to guy when you had a GE appliance that was giving you trouble. He was employed full time during the week with Sears/GE to repair appliances through their repair service. But the weekends were his to take on side jobs. He was well liked and well   known. So why in the spring of 1982 would someone break his nose, shoot him twice and leave his unclothed body in a ditch in rural Ohio? Hear his story here. 

This case was covered twice on Unsolved Mysteries. Once the original tel...

Its hard to imagine a high school junior kills a woman who is on a hike while camping with her boyfriend. Bryan Bennett was 16 years old when he killed so very brutally, Cathy Sposito, a 23 year old college student. Thumb Butte Trail in Yavapai County, AZ would never be the same. And Bennett did not stop there. He was linked posthumously through DNA to 3 other brutal sexual assaults. The Yavapai Sheriff's Office does not think his monsterous acts ended there. If you were assaulted by Bryan Bennett or know someone who may have been please contact the Yavapai Sheriff's...

May of 1984 in a small town in Indiana at a prestigous college in Southern Indiana a night security guard was beaten to death in the Business Adminstration building around 4:30 AM.

He was tough but fair but if you proved yourself and got into the inner sanctum you were in forever. Until business partner Michael Goodwin violated every trust you could put into another person. This is Mickey and...

Someone with this will to live and help others should not have disappeared over $400 dollars. More than one person knows Linda's whereabouts. If you know ANYTHING at...

If you, your parents or grandparents ever saw a soft-voiced, gentle man with the strangest afro ever teaching the world how to paint 'Happy Little Trees,' on the PBS show "The Joy of Painting," you know Bob Ross. The OG unintended inventor of AMSR (auto sensory meridian response) with his voice like a 'Liquid Tranquilizer,' he was a fascinating man for sure. But I can tell you with utmost certainty he was not a serial killer who painted areas where he had buried his victims. Between the TV show, teaching many painting workshops (with lots of witnesses...
