The Keys are not even in the Triangle anyway.

He was just a corporal, whatever he may have known could've easily be obtained via less conspicuous means.

And yet the worst school violence incident in US history happened in... 1927. I don't think murderous nutjobs are specific to an era, and the likelyhood of such an event happening at any particular shool is still quite low.

Perhaps the husband was being nagged to a potentially lethal level and reacted in self-defense?

The thread title mentions a tent, which is very likely because in April in the Northeast night time temps can still dip below freezing. I don't think most parents would be willing to let a kid that age sleep outdoors without basic shelter. I just assumed he was alone in the tent because...

At first glance this does not appear to be sexually motivated, at least not directly. The time at which it occurred also hints that it wasn't the result of an argument otherwise the others would have heard something in that quiet atmosphere. Despite what LE says about Wakely an act of revenge...

Not if the attacker was male but if Mabel was jumped by a female, and that is the feeling I get, it doesn't take much to make it personal. Anyway the whole description of the incident seems to point at something fortuitous rather than planned. Notice the mention of Earl Warren as a young DA :)

If the location is correct then I don't get why the FT article mentions that the vehicle had to be doing at least 65 mph and aiming at a 16-foot wide gap in the rail (I converted these values from the metrics used in the article) in order to end up where it was found. I lived near the aqueduct...

Not just creepy, makes no sense. If this was a big government cover-up one would think that government agents, when in need of a set of hands, would not dig up a two century-old grave to get them when morgues and research facilities would constitute a much more practical source of body parts of...

I'm surprised no one started a conspiracy theory over the mysterious demise of these dogs. More seriously, having set their sights on a suitably creepy suspect I have to wonder if the authorities took the time to properly investigate adult and teen supervisors present at the camp. Even though...

Could be but it's hard to tell because there is a fundamental contradiction in the three articles (FT, eonline and CNN interview with Devore's wife Wendy). They mention the event taking place somewhere along the Antelope Valley Freeway but they also mention the event being investigated by Santa...

Personally I tend to think that cutting up the body hints at a single perpetrator because of the logistics involved in disposing of the body. I imagine the killer would be seeking an appropriately secluded area and in Chicago that meant either a long drive beyond the suburbs with a body in the...

Thorough maybe but apparently not immune from gross exaggeration. It reported that the police had investigated 109,000 homes and 500,000 (half a million) garages. In 1957 that amounts roughly to one third of all the dwellings in Chicago and more garages than the whole state of Illinois...

Indeed, I had similar thoughts when I looked at the pictures of the area on google map street view. For some reason it showed the alley behind the homes instead of the street front but it's enough to get a feel of the place. Appears to be oldish but well-kept neighborhood. Looks safe now but...

More seriously now, the case is indeed not an open-and-shut case. Richard had succeeded in making his claim to the throne perfectly legal regardless of Edward being alive or not and it could be argued that the chances of having this claim successfully challenged by Edward were quite slim, so...

I always wondered what title would be used in a case against a reigning king, since the monarch is -theoretically- the prosecuting party. Richard III vs Richard Plantagenet?

Entering "Metz" into Google took me to France. Anyway I'm wondering, perhaps the case was not considered a murder by LE?

The problem with many PD's including large ones is that they often expect County (Sheriff), State police or the FBI will eventually pick up cold cases that have been shelved by them, or that a future municipal or emergency services amalgamation will shift the responsibility to the overtaking...

I drove to Bennington and walked up Long Trail Road (officially known as Harbour Road) recently, up that road is the location Welden was last seen before vanishing. After seeing the spot I am now convinced she got lost in the wilderness and not run away, contrary to what some believe. Harbour...

Me too, it is very similar to the Paula Jean Welden case. Welden disappeared while hiking on or near the Appalachian Trail in Vermont back in 1946.
