Re-posting the excellent Crime-beat episode featuring the disappearance of CH. This was posted on this thread earlier this year, but it looks like the link was taken down. Hopefully this link will work.
This is an excellent short doc. & IMHO went somewhat in-depth re: this MP case/Cold case...
To follow-up on the interview(s) in post #174:
Not to be crass, but the reality is that a good # of individuals involved (even if they were just on the periphery) made bank & become somewhat famous/infamous as a result of their association with this horrific case/trial. This was obviously via...
Fascinating interview - Thanks for posting. I thought I was very familiar with this case/crime, but this really shed some light on some important elements that I was previously unaware of. Some observations:
- Kato was a lot more forthright here about the case/perp./evidence than he was in the...
Before reading a recent post, I didn't know that JJ was a skateboarder. Since he was walking to work when he vanished, it doesn't seem that his skateboarding had anything to do with this case. However, it's interesting nonetheless.
Glad that this case is generating so much new interest. I...
Just saw the "See no Evil" episode (S02, EP13) featuring this absolutely brutal & heinous crime. I had never heard of this case prior to seeing this episode. So, at the beginning I was thinking that NW was killed by either a lover/bf, or possibly in the act of interrupting a burglary, etc...
I remember exactly where I was & what I was doing when the "innocent" verdict was read on TV in Fall 1995: I was a college student ATT & was walking across campus. In one of the campus buildings I was walking past (which was a distance away) - I suddenly & unexpectedly heard the sound of...
To anyone that is interested & hasn't already seen this, I would strongly recommend the superb documentary O.J.: Made in America (2016). It follows O.J. as a youth, through his athletic career, marriages, the NBS/RG murder/criminal trial; the later civil trial; the subsequent Las Vegas theft &...
The 1995 trial was one of the biggest miscarriages of justice in history. This perp. brutally murdered two people in cold blood & got off scot-free. This is despite a plethora of DNA evidence/blood evidence/physical evidence/a documented history of domestic abuse towards one of the...
After extensively researching the case, I find it almost impossible that JJ fell down in a crevice/gap/hole re: some kind of street work. If this happened, you would also have to believe that he became so severely injured that he couldn't call for help; eventually succumbed to his injuries; and...
Recently started watching the true crime TV series "See no Evil" for the first time. I'm almost finished with S01. The series is haunting & extremely disturbing, but also somewhat satisfying. This is due to the fact that the cameras/video (that are almost everywhere these days) have in many...
IMHO JJ would not have made a call to anyone from his cell phone if someone picked him up in a car & offered to take him directly to the school parking lot. If that was what happened, he would have gotten to the H.S. earlier than planned, not later. Plus, his co-worker picking him up didn't...
If JJ entered someone's house on the way to the H.S., I can see how no one may have seen him doing this. During a mid-morning week-day back in 2001, it's conceivable that not too many people would have been out & about in the neighborhood. I.e., most people would have been working, given that...
Yes. My understanding was that JJ's car was in the shop due to hail damage. Not sure how long he didn't have access to his car up to the day he disappeared. Also, my understanding was that JJ's parents had been dropping him off & picking him up @ work (while he didn't have his car) prior to...
I don't believe that JJ's vanishing off the face of the earth was due to the perp. being a criminal mastermind who has been able to skillfully evade/deflect the authorities for two decades.
Conversely, I suspect that this was very possibly a spur-of-the-moment/unplanned crime. And, I...
It's obvious that the authorities couldn't search everyone's house (along his potential route to the H.S.) - without probable cause, etc. It's also not clear who was also questioned in this case.
At this point, I don't know whether it's more likely JJ vanished due to going into a house, or due...
Absolutely. If I'm out walking @ night & someone rolls up to me in their car, my alarm bells are going off immediately - even if I know the person. However, if this same scenario occurs in the middle of the day - I may not be on my guard quite as much. That being said, I typically still...
Yes, I'm also wondering if JJ's evening walks throughout the neighborhood have any connection to his disappearance; apparently he started doing this in the months?! leading up to his vanishing. If nothing else, it seems that he would have been a familiar sight to those living in the community...
Following up with some of the last posts, I do believe that JJ was targeted by a male predator in some capacity. IMHO this is the most likely reason for his vanishing. I suspect that it was possibly someone he knew in the neighborhood/community. However, IMHO I don't believe that he was...
