    Members' Theories

    An Affair Theory (based on Patsy writing the ransom note): Ok I'll set the scene. Patsy was well educated and outgoing, then gets married/becomes a housewife at 23. She had her volunteering things, but dreamt of creating something of her own. She didn't work, and the finances were controlled by...

    GUILTY Australia - Eurydice Dixon, 22. Comedian's Rape And Killing Prompts Anger. June 2018

    On another note, I used to think that people who raped and murdered women did so due to objectification and dehumanisation. Which may be true in one regard, though Kate Manne, author of 'Down Girl: The Logic of Misogyny' wrote a great article, and proposed that it is actually her 'humanness'...

    I do think empathy has a party to play, however we must be careful when talking about autism and empathy. The type of empathy that I think we're all concerned about is referred to as 'affective empathy', that is the feeling/emotive kind, when you can feel what someone else is experiencing, which...

    Just saw that Sally is back in Luxembourg... LEADS?! Remakel was too much of a coincidence. **EDIT: ok I was a bit trigger happy, she was just posting an old photo. Damn it.

    Ve Very interesting. I'd like to hear about how she first got into teaching. I'm presuming registration was needed back then. Perhaps she was never registered, threatened to speak up about the abuse at TSS, and in retaliation they dug up her history and realised she was never registered, and...

    Interesting! So you think it could go back that far? I've been thinking, in most recent photos, she's wearing the same necklace which looks quite unique. I've just posted on the fb asking if Sally has a clearer photo of it.

    GUILTY Australia - Eurydice Dixon, 22. Comedian's Rape And Killing Prompts Anger. June 2018

    Well this is it. If we're going to diagnose every guy who is aroused by violent *advertiser censored* with sexual sadism disorder, then we'll be diagnosing every guy who watches mainstream *advertiser censored*. I am glad however that this diagnosis overshadows his autism diagnosis, as the suggestion that his autism was the...

    LATEST NEWS Todd went home after the murder to watch some violent *advertiser censored*, then returned to the site of the killing. He has been diagnosed with sexual sadism disorder. Eurydice Dixon's killer at 'significant risk' of reoffending due to sadism disorder, court hears

    Thanks! Ahh I see, thanks for outlining that. I'm interested in local cold cases (I'm from Victoria, Australia) particularly the case of Mr. Cruel. Also completely obsessed with the Jonbenet Ramsey case. Cheers for the welcome :)

    Hello! I learned of the existence of this site after listening to the first Jenson and Holes episode featured on My Favorite Murder. Had to join as soon as I heard, very excited to be here. Would someone be able to tell me if there's a way to find country/region specific cases, other than...

    GUILTY UK - Alesha MacPhail, 6, raped & murdered, Ardbeg, Isle of Bute, Scotland, 2 Jul 2018 -*arrest* #8

    So he's appealed his sentence, though now he's claiming his DNA was planted and the girlfriend of Alesha's father was the murderer. Yeah righto... Alesha's killer appeals 27-year minimum sentence

    Wondering where the clean-freak/germaphobe info is coming from? As far as I've heard, he was just meticulous about cleaning up any DNA evidence.
