What real life mystery would you like to see solved?

[DisReno]

They did solve the Adam Walsh case...
http://www.nbcnews.com/id/28257294/ns/us_news-crime_and_courts/t/police-killing-adam-walsh-solved/

and a man confessed to killing Etan Patz and will be going to trial soon...

Thank you. I thought when I read the other poster..."Don't we know the answers to those?"

Of course, knowing "WHO" never really satisfies the "Why".

The wounds were NOT defensive and they were NOT up and down her arms.

Her sons were viciously over killed and her wounds showed hesitation marks. She murdered her poor babies.

The State called her stab wounds hesitation marks. I'm talking about the one on the inside of her arms-as if she was attacked and defending herself.

I'm talking about these:

The Boy in the Box
An unidentified Caucasian male, probable age 4 to 6 years, whose nude body, wrapped in a cheap flannel blanket, was found lying face up inside a large cardboard carton just a few feet from the edge of Susquehanna Road .-

Baby Hope
On July 23, 1991, Baby Hope was found on an embankment of the Henry Hudson parkway, just south of the Dyckman toll plaza in Inwood Hill Park, at the northernmost tip of Manhattan. Judging by the remains, the child was extremely malnourished and weighed only about 25 pounds. Police had estimated that she had been four to four-and-a-half years old when she died.

Sharon Marshall...out of all the tragic cases, hers haunts me the most. Who was she and how did the monster that abused her all those years obtain her?

I'm surprised to see anyone mention her. I'd like to see this case solve, too.

The Jacob Wetterling case haunts me! I remember watching America's Most Wanted when I was little and seeing this story. It always stuck with me.

I'm so glad the coelcanth was mentioned. This has fascinated me for years. On a different note...I was just at a party tonight and talked with a couple from Scotland that swear hey saw Nessie

 

[Miranda Danda]

Wow! I thought I followed a lot of mysteries/true crime cases, but y'all have named some I've never heard of. These are fascinating and so sad. I can't imagine going through these tragedies AND not getting any sort of closure. Its like a wound that never heals.

OMG!!!! That's so cool! I've been obsessed with Nessie since I was about 6. I so hope she's real

Molly Bishop

Do you mean Molly Bish, the lifeguard in Mass? Or, is this a different case?

 

[FlyingDumbo]

I was thinking that poster meant Molly Bish too. They think the know who killed her, he also was a suspect in several other disappearances. Rodney Stanger is the suspect.

The Jacob Wetterling case haunts me! I remember watching America's Most Wanted when I was little and seeing this story. It always stuck with me.

Many years after the abduction, I saw an interview with his brother, it was heartbreaking.

 

[Miranda Danda]

That is awesome!!!!

Crop circles have all been proven to be man made and several people have come forward and shown how it's done. No mystery there at all. It's a kind of graffiti.
.

uh ok, SOME are man made...
but not "ALL"
there are differences in the ones man made & the others that there is no explanation for.
no freakin' way were most of those made in a few hours without tracks.

Preface: Postsecret was a small art project that Frank Warren started about a decade or more ago. He wanted complete strangers to anonymously mail him on a postcard any secret that they have never told anyone else. These have become works of art. Genuine and original to each creator, not only the secret but also the artwork depicting the secret. This project has erupted into a huge amazing worldwide project. He has done books, websites, blogs, an app, events, etc.

Every Sunday he publishes a set of new postcards to his website. One day there was one postcard that still haunts me to my core just thinking about it.

It was a bloody handprint sliding down a wall. The script said "One down, XX(a number for the life of me I can't remember) more to go.........." I have seen some creepy, sad, disturbing, etc, etc, things on there and even throughout life but for whatever reason this image sticks in my head and frightens me deeply.

On a possibly related note I always worry and am fascinated about all the missing people and unsolved murder cases. I will often find myself spending hours online looking through the lists of many, many people with unsolved cases. I start with one case which then leads to another similar one on and on. It is really disheartening how quickly life can disappear.
