Hey everyone,I recently stumbled upon Dana Leigh Ritter's case, and something caught my eye about the tattoos she has. Tattoos can be such personal expressions and carry stories that aren't necessarily visible at first glance. Dana has "Kayla" and "Destiny" tattooed on her ankles, along with other tattoos on her arms and back. I couldn�t help but wonder if these names, Kayla and Destiny, hold clues or connections that might shed light on her life before she disappeared.Does anyone know if Dana h... ...View Post & Comment

Just learned about the tragic loss of Zachary Reid in Farmington last year, and it got me thinking about the unresolved pieces of this case besides just the legal side. I can't even begin to imagine the pain Zachary's family, especially his father Scott, must be going through. Losing a child in such a violent manner is something no parent should ever have to endure.It makes me wonder about the community's support system for the family and others affected by this. Do we have enough resources in p... ...View Post & Comment
Hi, this is Zach�s sister , just wanted to point out one thing, Scott fled the scene from the small info I have gathered so don�t feel sorry for him he�s an awful individual.(personal opinion) just felt like I had to contribute that. It�s nice to know people care though and reading through the comments have reassured me he is not lost in the mix, I feel like this case got swept underneath the rug, nothing really happened and no new info out. I�m trying to just come to terms with the fact he is ... ...View Post & Comment

It looks like his case has been either put on private in Namus or removed. You can also ask Lafayette PD (listed as the investigating agency on Colorado�s entry) whether the NamUs listing is still active/public. That would be the way to find out for sure. I would hope this means he was located. I don\'t see why he would be listed as private???... ...View Post & Comment
Has anyone else heard anything about Mitch Bailey's connection with Starnes besides their rumored argument over some car parts? It's just so tragic for his family, especially given how much Mitch loved his Mustangs. I wonder if their shared interest in cars led to this senseless tragedy. It's tough to imagine how Debra and the kids are coping with such a sudden and violent loss. My heart goes out to them during this difficult time. If anyone has heard any updates or new information about what mi... ...View Post & Comment
I have been following this case very closely also over the last 8-9 months. I actually know family members of both parties. I know that on the day of Cornelius\' bond hearing,Burgins family and friends were called downstairs by the D.A. and told that Burgin was actually the instigator not the victim. This is a horrible incident that could have been prevented and I hate it for both parties involved. I was told that Cornelius had placed a warrant out for Burgins arrest back in mid September of 20... ...View Post & Comment
First Burgin had no warrants on him, per the DA..he was visiting his 15 year old son who was in the apartment. Burgin had no weapon on him and if Cornelius was afraid of him which he saw Burgin from a distance, Cornelius should have called SPD. He took matters in his own hands and shot him 6 times, and Burgin was down with the first shot. He had intentions on killing Burgin and he did it when his 15 year old son was on the other side of the door. ... ...View Post & Comment

It's truly gut-wrenching to think how Geraldine's family and friends have had to live all these years without answers. I was reading through some older articles about the case, and it's concerning to see how little information has come to light since 1988. I found myself wondering about the area where it happened. A friend�s front yard seems so personal; did the neighborhood experience any similar incidents around that time? Could it provide some context as to why this happened there, of all pla... ...View Post & Comment

I've been digging into the background of Treaty Line Road, where Thomas was found, and it just raises more questions for me. It's not a major road, more of a secluded stretch. For those familiar with Hagerstown, is there anything noteworthy about that area? Was it known to be a quiet spot, or could it have served a different purpose? It seems random for such a well-respected guy like Thomas to end up there unless he knew who he was meeting. My heart goes out to his family�hoping justice comes so... ...View Post & Comment
We were stalked by the man for years. My husband had just quit pipelining. The man had done a construction job on our home and was a client.

Brendan was absolutely loved & adored. His dad, his dad�s best friend Aaron & Bre were frogging in Lake Verret (Pierre Part, LA) when Aaron�s boat hit a dock. Brendan dove in the water & he and his dad called 911 & did CPR. Aaron passed away that night from internal injuries. Then, three years later Brendan�s very best friend, Jestin accidentally shot himself at a friend�s apartment. Brendan was there and held Jestin until the ambulance arrived.

Michael Simmons' case has stayed with me ever since I first heard about it. It�s tough to process how much violence plagued Long Beach during that time, and how Michael was taken in the midst of it. Something that stands out to me is the lack of community cooperation that often hinders investigations in such cases. I can�t help but wonder if fear was a factor in why people weren�t coming forward. The potential for retaliation in neighborhoods with active gang presence must be significant. It�s s... ...View Post & Comment

Has anyone been to Goodsprings recently and noticed anything unusual? My cousin used to talk about how quiet that area is, but with Andre Roy's disappearance, I'm starting to wonder if there's more to this small town than meets the eye.

It's bothering me how there's no information at all on what happened that day. If anyone knows the area well, can you share any insights on ... ...View Post & Comment

Hey everyone, I�ve been keeping up with Andre Roy�s case, and something struck me about the location of his last sighting. Goodsprings is such a quiet place, and if you�ve ever been there, you know it doesn�t take long to notice if someone new�or out of place�is around. The remoteness could either mean that very few people were around to witness anything, or it could mean the opposite, that someone local might have seen something unusual. I've been wondering if any locals have come forward with ... ...View Post & Comment

I was reading about Derek Valdepena's case and something that struck me was the involvement of the Riverside County Sheriff's Central Homicide Unit. They usually handle cases with complex circumstances, right? This makes me wonder what kind of evidence or leads they've encountered that makes them think it�s not a simple open-and-shut case.

Youngest daughter here. There is actually nothing more to the story. Yeah, it is unusual for husband and wife to both pass away the same day.

Has anyone else looked into the tide and weather conditions on January 1, 2003, around the King Kong Blue Hole? I�ve been researching dive conditions that might have been present that day, and it seems like there might have been some pretty strong currents reported in the area during that time of year. Obviously, this might not solve anything, but could it have played a critical role in whatever happened during the dive? Just thinking about what hidden factors might've contributed.

I've been reading about Jennifer Nicol's case, and something that keeps puzzling me is the King Kong Blue Hole itself.

I just came across this case about Jamie Blasingain, and it really struck me how sometimes, even when there�s a lot of information about someone's life, the circumstances of their death can remain so unclear.

What kind of investigation is that? The fact that the pets were killed is one of the first signs to me tha... ...View Post & Comment
