I especially like the bit where it says child molesters used to be called "sex morons"!

 

[Ziba82]

"Today's Best Detective Story" seems a little insensitive of a headline for such a delicate case. I guess times were different back then.

Nevertheless, oh yes, it definitely seems like a serial killer going after those girls. Horrible, heartbreaking read

Bumping for Emily, as it's now been 100 years since she disappeared.

Bumping this thread up. Emily's disappearance has never been solved officially. However, police investigators back in 1919 felt her case was related to the disappearance of Freda Hornberger, also age 9 and a friend of Emily's.

Several possible suspects and other possibly connected crimes were named at the time.

Bumping this thread up.

Even if she was alive, she would have long since passed. I wish they would still investigate these cases to rightly connect them and give justice to the deceased. I know she is no longer with us, but it's a matter of respect and giving her the dignity she deserved.

I do understand there are budgetary concerns and focus on more important things within police departments, I just wish there was an agency that focused on these types of old old old cold cases.

Hello,
I can’t express how grateful I am to have found this thread! Very recently I started tracing my ancestry and have discovered that Emily Gump is my great-great aunt! Ancestry.com lead me to the Cincinnati Enquirer’s article that was published at that time and is how I came about Emily’s abduction. Such a heartbreaking moment in my family history.

Kinda surreal to be finding out all of this now and is absolutely motivating me to investigate her cold case more. I’ll keep my eyes on this feed in hopes that more will drop information/pictures.

Emily Gump​

Birth 1910
Missing since 18 Nov 1919
Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio, USA

There were some similar abductions and murders of little girls in the Cincinnati, Ohio area around this time. There was Elizabeth Nolte murdered in 1915, and Freda Hornberger who went missing in August 1921.

Could they have been connected?
