Just that really, what one unsolved crime/mystery/news story do toy wish would be solved?

For me, its Madeleine McCann. It may well just be because of the age I am, its one of the first ones I remember really clearly as it happened.

What about you?

What I find awful is that the pictures of JonBenet taken after her death are displayed on the internet showing all the marks on her body.

I don’t think that should be allowed. It shows no respect to that poor child. I came across the photos on threads discussing the crime and other people posting them. Just awful. Poor, little girl.

Jonathan Spollen, still missing in India.

I was also going to mention Charlene Downes.

@AndNoneForGretchenWeiners 100% agree with you re: Nicola Payne - absolutely awful.

The person who wrote the ransom note in the JonBenet case is very likely the killer or knows what happened. Handwriting experts have made a near identical match to Patsy, JonBenet's mother. Burke Ramsey successfully sued CBS after they made the documentary about the pineapple and accused him of being the murderer.

I've probably spent too much time on Reddit but I would love to know who killed Hae Min Lee. Joy Hewer was killed in a horrific attack in her home in East London and her flat set on fire. She knew her attacker as she invited them in. Mary Ferns literally vanished into thin air in Edinburgh - never been seen since. Alison Shaughnessy, Marie Wilks, Debbie Linsley. I can never understand how someone can get away with murder and live their lives as if nothing had happened. I feel for the families who are left with so many questions.

Lee Boxell. DH is a Sutton United fan (probably outing ha, there's not many of them) and this has always stayed with him.

The Irish among you will likely know these cases, Trevor Deely and Philip Cairns. So utterly bizarre how people can just disappear off the face of the earth. And so sad for those left behind. These stay in my mind because they are so puzzling but also because annual appeals highlight the pain their families still endure. And how someone somewhere knows.

Johnny Gosch. He's my age and been missing since he was 12.

His mother is convinced he's still alive.

Hannah Witheridge and David Miller Thanks

Elisa Lam isn't mysterious,only if you've not seem someone in the midst of a physchotic episode. It can be pretty unsettling seeing someone so ill.

The extent of Russian manipulation in 2016 US election and UK Brexit referendum.

Sontagsleere - regarding Philip Cairns, have you read this?

Robert Nairac. I think about it every time I drive past the signs for Ravensdale forest. What exactly did he get up to over here? Where is his body?

Wonnacott35 I agree I would love for the Family of Alan Bryant to have some answers that family have been through so much and yet still find the strength to carry on. His dad looks absolutely broken in his videos. I pray they get some answers x

TheGrey1houndSpeaks · 09/04/2019 23:47

God, I’d never heard of Daniel Entwhistle! And the millions directed at the other famous one still keep rolling in. How awful.

Hazlenutpie · 09/04/2019 23:51

MM, her disappearance still haunts me.

He has confessed to killing her but they haven’t brought charges against him yet.

He may have done it or like many other prisoners rotting in jail he is trying to get attention

The film is called 'The Last Days of Peter Bergmann'.

It is a short film and I watched it on YouTube again last night. I believe it won awards at a major film festival.
