    FAQ's: Websleuths and The Killing Season/Post Your Questions About Websleuths HERE

    Sillybilly, that link isn't working for me. I wind up on a page that is selling domains. Is there something wrong with the URL? Could this be it: Project: Cold Case – Because one unsolved homicide is too many.

    Thanks, JMoose. Looking forward to seeing if you and anyone else can do more than I could with it. BTW, I said "Netflix" documentary (I will fix above), but it's actually an 8-part Amazon original documentary series called "The Killing Season."

    This is the thing that actually brought me here today: I was watching a new Netflix documentary on the Long Island serial killer (ETA: Oops — it's actually on Amazon and is called "The Killing Season") , which has Websleuths at the heart of it. And they mentioned a new website called the Murder...

    Hi, All — Can't believe I am jumping back in after several years' time ‍:rolleyes: But HI! I think there are so many problems in determining where, if dead, Sylvia might be. Looking only at the possibility of burial and forgetting about suicide, the ocean, and Hart Island for a moment: (1)...

    BBM: Yes, I remember us all talking about that a lot -- and the queries involving matches to known UIDs, which I think Rose was sending to someone on the case. Personally, I think the best bet for discovery of her unidentified remains is Staten Island -- either because she never left or was...

    I see you are keeping the flame burning, my Webseluths friends :) I hope you're all doing well. I am on a crazy treadmill, still dealing with my parents, their house, my house, work, and my "sideline" career as a novelist. Time is so precious ... but I couldn't help thinking of Sylvia, my...

    OH OH - William 'Bill' Comeans, 14, Columbus, 7 Jan 1980 - #2

    Gee, Bessie, even the date is similar -- Jan. 1 for David, Jan. 7 for Bill. Could suggest visits home for the holidays? I too wonder if Serritella had friends or family in Columbus prior to or in addition to Skokie. I remember reading articles on this case earlier in Bill's thread, but at that...

    Was it here? I think it might have been the Bill Comeans thread ... I don't recall. ETA: Yes, BC thread. Here's a link to the post.

    Original post TBM: BBM1: This confuses me, as we do see LE doing this with some cases, particularly when families insist the MP wouldn't have left on his or her own (which comes back again to the issues of family advocacy and publicity). BBM2: In the case of SL, I think the simple fact of...

    Huh. Truly odd. Are there any "rules" out there about this sort of thing? Would the absence of LE's backing/handling of the reward process hold it up? Or can an individual conduct a reward process themselves? I am guessing he wouldn't want to, right? To have all those possibly misplaced calls...

    Good question. I remember thinking about this recently in some other context and wondering if maybe he decided not to move forward with the reward. Maybe someone talked him out of it? If he had made it concrete, that would have been the ideal place to publicize it, for sure. Off the top of my...

    To your point earlier, JMoose, about what EL and MMQC said at the dorm, I was just rereading part of Thread 1 and MMQC seems to have indicated that they were all going on the premise that SL had gone away and could come back, if I am reading the statement below correctly. The statement goes to...

    BBM: I would not read too much into this. The strategy to keep from being pulled into incriminating someone whom LE did not view as a suspect, probably after the article was written, would have been to sever any ability to connect the writer's statements to the BF/F. That's what wording those...
