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?

Isn’t it presumed that Corey would have died and be in the land fill sad yes it was, but there was so much conflicting evidence that that was more of a best guess.

A friend of mine knows his dad, and he has been destroyed by it.

The Beaumont children in South Australia. Their parents are still alive, in their 90s.

I don’t think what happened to Corrie is particularly mysterious, the only thing that is unknown is where his body is exactly.

I think it's pretty certain Corrie McKeague's remains are in landfill. The bin lorry going from where he was last seen weighed 200lbs more than it had weighed on any bin day over the course of a year, which is how much he weighed. Unfortunately I imagine his remains may never be found Sad

Marie Celeste.

MM.
would just love to know what happened to her. Hate to honk of that poor little3 year old having suffered. The best we can hope is either that her demise was quick and painless or that she is living happily somewhere with adopted parents unaware of her roots.

Praia da Luz is a beautiful safe friendly village in the Algarve where I spend a great deal of time.

I hate that that stupid woman spokesperson from the McCaan team have billed it as a "sinister" little village. Nothing could be further from the truth and most of the residents who live there would agree with me.

Definately MM, purely because I grew up with it in the news, or Jack the Ripper.

As others have said, all of them tbh would be nice to give closure to families

Dyatlov Pass incident. Such a sinister incident. Would be fascinating to understand what happened.

Keith and Corrie

I always wonder what happened to Andrew Gosden

Jinglejanglefish · 07/04/2019 21:39

Jon Benet Ramsay. Something very dodgy happened there.

Tutulafromage · 07/04/2019 21:42

Madeleine McCann

Autumnchill · 07/04/2019 21:42

Local one for me, a furniture store owner who just disappeared one day, his car was found but he literally vanished off the face of the earth.

Hairynick · 07/04/2019 21:45

Alasdair Watson who was shot in Nairn.

that the bodies of the poor child victims of the moors murders was found. In Australia1965 the Wanda Beach Murders.2 young girls of 15 were found on Wanda Beach Dunes & their violent murderer was never discovered.

Strugglingonagain · 07/04/2019 21:54

Actually I do wonder about Claudia Lawrence as well. And Corrie, although I think the landfill consensus is correct, which is such a sad outcome.

Michael Dunahee from BC, Canada. He was only 4 years old when he went missing in 1991. His mom was playing in a baseball game and his dad was a spectator. Michael was playing nearby and never seen again.

Ben Needham.

His case and that of Madeleine McCann attract conspiracy theorist types who insist they're alive and living in South America with Lord Lucan and Elvis. I really wish they'd shut up. Sad
