Which one would it be? Missing persons, unsolved murders or even random unexplained events.

I don’t think I could pin one. It would have to be missing children as a group. I appreciate lots of people, including adults go missing (some of own accord, misadventure or foul play) and any missing person is obviously distressing but I can’t even begin to imagine the horror of a missing dependant child and I couldn’t pick one over another to solve.

Maddie,cannot imagine how her parents function. My children were so little and as parents we would never have imagined this scenario. Absolutely heartbreaking.

who truly built the Egyptian pyramids and the sphinx because conventional academic wisdom aside they all show water erosion and based on graham handcocks books etc they are years older than convential academic wisdom allows for.

i suspect they are from an advanced older civilisation as there are many odd and strange artifacts around the world that seem to point to older more advanced civilisations.

Ben Needham.

I thought a digger driver confessed to that on his death bed. I know people tried to go back and find the body and all they could find was a buckle.
But I can't see why someone would fess up to that causing stress to their family if it wasn't true.

Needspaceforlego · 02/03/2025 00:41

So many unsolved mysteries.
I think the police are fairly sure who was responsible for Madeline McCann.

So Ill vote for Bible John who was a Glasgow serial killer in the 60s.

DancefloorAcrobatics · 02/03/2025 00:45

My vote also goes for MH370.
