    CANADA: Luka Rocco Magnotta, wanted for murder and dismemberment

    I think it's fair to say that bomb has already gone off.

    IN - Lauren Spierer, 20, Bloomington, 03 June 2011 - #3

    I'm confused about the DNA samples being taken, and was wondering if someone could enlighten me. Is there DNA evidence to match against? If not, why are they asking for DNA? To have just in case?

    NY-LI-4 bodies on Beach-Possible SK-12/10-All id'd,4 more found 3/11 #3

    If Atlantic City is connected, one potentially important clue is that victim Kim Raffo was last seen getting into a black Nissan Maxima with out of state plates. The bodies, hers included, were found the next day. http://www.nytimes.com/2006/12/05/nyregion/05slay.html?_r=1&pagewanted=all...

    Is Mona Nelson of Houston TX a serial killer?

    Hi, I just wanted to pop in and say that I spent a lot of time researching the Lane Bryant murders for a story on my website, True Crime Diary, and I distinctly recall that there was a lot of speculation about the gender of the suspect --- I can't recall if it was members of the investigative...

    MN - Jacob Wetterling, 11, St. Joseph, 22 Oct 1989 - #3

    My understanding is that at one point the FBI theorized that Jacob's kidnapping could have been a Halloween prank gone wrong. I recall reading profiler Clint Van Zandt talk about that theory. I'm sure it was shared with Patty Wetterling. In retrospect, it seems clear they were suggesting it...

    Omaha Double Murder #2

    Tom and Shirlee died of stab wounds to the neck. Not too long ago this guy stabbed his friend in Israel in the neck (the victim lived). http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/08/13/AR2010081303332.html

    Omaha Double Murder #2

    Seems like this guy traveled around the country a lot visiting family. I can't find anyone in Nebraska with that last name, but doesn't mean he didn't have relatives there. I'm curious about something. I'm not good with cars. Can someone chime in --- would anyone ever mix up a Chevy Blazer...

    Omaha Double Murder #2

    At least two of his victims were white. There's some speculation that he was targeting vulnerable people who were out walking alone, and it was just happenstance that most of the victims were african-americans. But yeah, the m.o. is certainly different, in terms of being outside, all men, etc...

    Omaha Double Murder #2

    I'm struck by how much the so-called Flint serial killer, Elias Abuelazam, who has just been arrested after randomly stabbing people in at least three states, look like the sketch of the possible Hunter-Sherman suspect. I wonder if he can be tied to Nebraska at all. I just read that one point...

    MN - Jacob Wetterling, 11, St. Joseph, 22 Oct 1989 - #2

    It's surprising, even shocking, to me that DR wasn't the most unshakable suspect #1 from the beginning. The geographic configuration is damning. And then the coincidences just add up. The very night the two other people who normally are at home are out of town an abduction occurs at the end...

    TX - Cameron Willingham executed for '91 murders of 3 daughters

    This article, from an extremely reputable reporter, makes a compelling case that Willingham was indeed innocent. http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2009/09/07/090907fa_fact_grann

    MO MO - Dennis Spriggs, 47, LaBelle, 15 July 1992

    Hi Clint, Would you mind emailing me at [email protected]? I'm working on this story (with Lucky2's permission) and would love to talk with you, either on or off the record. We've been trying to reach a member of the Forgy family for a while and have had a little trouble making a...

    CO CO - Roger Ellison, 17, Cedaredge, 10 Feb 1981 #1

    Hi, Intuition, could you write me at [email protected]? I'm a crime blogger/writer and I've been interested in the Roger Ellison case for a while. I'd like to cover this new development and would like to exchange some information with you. I really appreciate it. Thanks! Michelle...

    GUILTY WI - Brittany Zimmermann, 21, Madison, 2 April 2008 *arrest in 2020*

    I wrote about the unsolved murders in Madison on my blog...a couple of sources gave me some interesting, unreported information... http://www.truecrimediary.com/home/2008/04/the_madison_murders_1.html

    GUILTY WI - Brittany Zimmermann, 21, Madison, 2 April 2008 *arrest in 2020*

    My guess would be the Marino and Zimmerman murders are related, Nolan is not. Staying tight-lipped got the MPD nowhere on the Nolan case. I don't know what their strategy is --- there's significant information one can release without jeopardizing an investigation or court case. The release of...
