    LA LA - Shane Fell, 36, Marrero, 9 June 2011 - #2

    Despite my rather lengthy absence from WS after my husband passed, Shane's disappearance often comes to mind. I do my best to mention him (and the facts surrounding his disappearance) to others, as well. The more individuals who are aware, the greater the chance that someone with knowledge...

    UID Victim: Toddler's Mother, Peaches, found Hempstead Lake State Park June 1997 #4

    Beyond the sadness and compassion I feel for all of the victims and their loved ones, I am most touched by the deaths of Peaches and the little toddler. It's fair to surmise that each victim at some time, in some manner, and for whatever reason, survived an injury that left her (and him) with a...

    PA PA - Carol Dougherty, 9, Bristol, 22 Oct 1962

    That would be such a blessing! I followed this tragedy closely when I was active prior to 2017. I had so many links bookmarked. I'm going to search for them. Carole Ann really touched my heart, poor sweet girl. We were close in age, and I was a good little Catholic school girl who...

    Thomas Hargrove and Bessie Featured in the latest edition of The New Yorker

    Tricia, Please accept my very belated "thanks". First time reading this message. It was posted just a month after I lost my beloved Mr. Bessie, and you know the state of mind I was in at the time. In fact, I had completely forgotten about the article until (coincidentally is an...

    TN TN - Kathy Jones, 12, Nashville, 29 Nov 1969 #2

    Hi, all. I haven't posted about Kathy in a very long time, but I've not forgotten her, either. Going through my large folder of Websleuths case related articles and documents, I came across a copy of the newspaper article I ordered years, ago. It's a copy of the original story regarding...
