"The dying woman who points at her own killer - it was like a bad novel by Agatha Christie."On Monday, 24 June 1991, 65-year-old Ghislaine Marchal had plans to meet up with a friend for lunch in the French town of Mougins.

"It takes a certain mentality, and a certain personality type, to commit an act like this. To burn a woman alive is not something many people are capable of doing."Early on the evening of 1 December 2017, authorities in Colorado were dispatched to a home located in Bailey, a small town southwest of Denver. There, at an isolated home in rural Park County, they came upon an active fire. A 9-1-1 call made a short time prior said that multiple people were inside the home causing damage, but by the time authorities arrived, the suspect(s) had fled and the house was on fire.Despite initial reports that no one was found inside the burning home, that would change in the days to come, as the homeowners attempted to track down their 17-year-old daughter. To this day, events surrounding her mysterious death remain clouded in mystery...If you know anything - or think you may know anything - please reach out to your nearest FBI field office or American Embassy/Consulate.

"Someone did this with a purpose of doing this. Not once, not twice, not three times but four. I don't know anything scarier than that."Early on the afternoon of 13 November 2022, police in Moscow, Idaho responded to a 911 call about an "unconscious individual" at 1122 King Road. Inside the home, located near the University of Idaho campus, officers would find four bodies in total: three young women that lived at the property (Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, and Xana Kernodle) and one young man (Ethan Chapin, Xana's boyfriend). All four victims had been killed in an apparent homicide, likely stabbed to death with the same knife, but specific details about the crime remain clouded in mystery. In the weeks since this event unfolded, police in Moscow have continued to search for the unknown subject that committed this crime, while attempting to protect the integrity of their investigation from rumor, gossip, and online chatter. Meanwhile, as authorities field criticism about their initial response to the story, an international spotlight continues to shine upon this small college town...

"Hey, don't shoot, I understand what's going on, don't shoot. We can work this out."Just after midnight on 19 October 1985, Douglas Cleaves was relaxing with his sister and two of his friends at his home in Anchorage, Alaska. The four had eaten dinner earlier that evening and were watching "Fame" when they heard a couple of loud knocks at the front door. Doug's sister, Susan, got up to get it. Standing at the door was a masked figure wearing a balaclava, combat gloves, and a tan-colored trench coat, who was holding what looked like a bolt-action hunting rifle. This unknown individual stormed inside and shot Doug five times, ignoring the man's pleas as he lay helpless on the ground, having lost his legs in a terrible accident just a few months prior...Special thanks to Susan Ludwig, Doug's sister, who has championed her brother's story for several years now.
