Hello! This new site is fantastic. Thank you to the Admins for the new look. 🙏🏼❤ I wanted to re-create a thread here that was on the last crimewatchers.net site and is no longer 😢 in 2015, I was very interested in looking back into the West Mesa Bone Collector case. I have an admittedly OCD fascination with tracking serial killers who have yet to be apprehended and theorizing their movements/potential victims etc. With that being said, I decided to attempt a comparison between the West Mesa victims unearthed in 2009 and any other crimes fitting a similar MO. (For those who need a quick update on the West Mesa Bone Collector Case, here’s some quick info: West Mesa murders - Wikipedia ) While I was studying the West Mesa case I...

This has been a long time coming. A man will spend the rest of his life in prison after murdering a couple he lured to buy a classic car almost a decade ago. Ronnie Adrian “Jay” Towns pleaded guilty to two counts of malice murder in connection to the deaths of Bud and June Runion. Towns was sentenced to two concurrent life without parole sentences. The Runions, who were from Cobb County, Georgia, were robbed and shot to death before their bodies were found in Telfair County, Georgia, in January 2015. Authorities said the couple drove three hours to Telfair County to meet someone offering to sell Bud Runion a 1966 Mustang. Law enforcement officials said Towns lured the Runions to Telfair County by replying to a Craigslist...

ROBERT & FRIEDA WHEATLEY Cases # 88-88210 & # 88-88211 View KPTV's story on this Cold Case. On August 29, 1988, police responded to a welfare check at 2612 N. Holman, which was called in by the granddaughter of the occupants of that residence. Police entered the residence where they discovered the bodies of Robert Wheatley, 61, and Frieda Wheatley, 69, in the basement. The medical examiner determined the cause of death as strangulation.

Highway of Tears https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highway_of_Tears The Highway of Tears is a 725-kilometre (450 mi) corridor of Highway 16 between Prince George and Prince Rupert in British Columbia, Canada, which has been the location of many missing and murdered Indigenous women (MMIW) beginning in 1970. The phrase was coined during a vigil held in Terrace, British Columbia in 1998, by Florence Naziel, who was thinking of the victims' families crying over their loved ones. There is a disproportionately high number of Indigenous women on the list of victims. Proposed explanations for the years-long endurance of the crimes and the limited progress in identifying culprits include poverty, drug abuse, widespread domestic violence...

BOB CRANE was found murdered in his Scottsdale apartment on June 29, 1978, his skull bashed in with a blunt object and an electrical cord around his neck. His death — and the sordid revelations that followed — stunned Hollywood, his fans and his family. And though it's been 40 years, and though he now knows things that he wishes he didn't, hardly a day goes by that Bob Crane Jr. doesn't think about his father. The one-time Los Angeles radio personality had only one hit television show, and it didn't even get a farewell episode because they didn't do them back then. Bob Crane Jr. said there are a number of reasons why the public still craves information about his father. First, the show is still on TV. Its World War II setting makes...

Book claims FBI believes I-70 killer from Indianapolis It’s been one of the most enduring murder mysteries of the last 30 years: the identity and the motive behind the I-70 killings, a string of slayings in strip malls near interstates stretching from Indiana to Kansas in the early 1990s. It all started at a Payless ShoeSource store at I-465 and Pendleton Pike on April 8, 1992, and is the subject of a new book that sheds light on the decades-long investigation and is the latest case to be profiled on Indy Unsolved. ”Well the first case was here in Indianapolis with Robin Fuldauer and the second case was just a couple days later in Wichita,” said Bob Cyphers, a retired St. Louis reporter who has written the new book, “Dead End: Inside...

Cooper is a media epithet used to refer to an unidentified man who hijacked a Boeing 727 aircraft in United States airspace between Portland, Oregon, and Seattle, Washington, on the afternoon of November 24, 1971.[1][2] He extorted $200,000 in ransom (equivalent to $1,278,000 in 2020) and parachuted to an uncertain fate over southwestern Washington. The man purchased his airline ticket using the alias Dan Cooper but, because of a news miscommunication, became known in popular lore as D. B. Cooper. The FBI maintained an active investigation for...

This case is technically "solved"; however, many questions remain (not the least of which is: was an innocent men executed?). I was living in Waco for several years; left a couple of months before this happened. I knew Vic Feazell casually- he was having trysts w/ my room mate. My impression of him was/is *smarmy*- not just because he was married & screwing around, but because he literally came across that way- just exuded ego, anything for attention, nasty personality in general. Also, the media makes this case sound like an aberration in Waco, and, honestly, it wasn't. I sobered up in 1980; in early 1981 an acquaintance from the program & her boyfriend went to Koehne Park to try to score some weed; the boyfriend was shot and killed...

https://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/serial-killer-rodney-alcalas-photos-released-can-you-id-any-of-these-women/1650156/ From Wikipedia In March 2010, the Huntington Beach and New York City Police Departments released 120 of Alcala's photographs and sought the public's help in identifying them, in the hope of determining if any of the women and children he photographed were additional victims. Approximately 900 additional photos could not be made public, police said, because they were too sexually explicit. In the first few weeks, police reported that approximately 21 women had come forward to identify themselves, and "at least six families" said they believed they recognized loved ones who "disappeared years ago and were never...

Hello Crimewatchers! I am so glad to be back after that little hiatus during the new year! I have some news to share with everyone concerning TCCF, and because of the awesomeness that CW has offered toward my project, I am happy to release some things in advance of tomorrow's important announcement. 1. We Ran Into A Little Problem: TCCF has always been the place for Daisy and I to discuss cold cases that rarely ever get the attention that they deserved. We tried our best to help bring these cases to light in an attempt to reinvigorate said cases. In fact, we have an interesting number of people who tune into the Anchor podcast vs. our YouTube channel. However we had some issues ranging from a creative "snag" on my end, in which I kinda...

Texarkana Moonlight Murders https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texarkana_Moonlight_Murders The Texarkana Moonlight Murders, a term coined by the contemporary press, was a series of four unsolved serial murders and related violent crimes committed in and around the Texarkana region of Arkansas and Texas in the late winter and spring of 1946.

The attacks occurred at night on weekends between February 22 and May 3, targeting male-female pairs. The first three attacks were at lovers' lanes...
