  1. how tf can you plead guilty to murder and get 6 months??! thats insane, i dont care if she has mental problems

  2. I gotta admit, some of these just sound like they pinned it on someone just to close the case. You're gonna hang a murder charge on someone who had a traumatic brain injury. Some of these are great detective work, but a couple people are definitely getting railroaded here.

  3. I was watching to see how many hours and years of work finally got justice for these people I am also watching to see if Adam Walsh death would be on here because that was huge news when it happened and they even made a movie called My Name Is Adam and his death is what got Walsh into doing America's most wanted television show which helped a lot of people get justice by putting the news out there for people to know about

  4. My great grandmother was murdered in 1946. In a small town in Ohio. It's a cold case. I know my family will never know who killed her, but I wish we could find out.

  5. Ilene Beth Mischeloff (not certain of the spelling), 13 year old girl who disappeared from Dublin CA in 1989 from the local ice rink.
    Haven't heard of it being solved, or anything being found.
    It's a case that has stuck with me for the past 30+ years bc my friend & I were walking about the town after we got out of school; we were trying to decide where to stop for lunch.. the next day at school, we were both a bit freaked out, asking ourselves & one another if we'd seen anything because that poor girl's photo was all over the television.
    I still spot her missing posters occasionally.. I'm just shattered if there hasn't been any developments in her case.

    Were the West Memphis Arkansas triple murders ever truly solved? Steven Edward Branch, Christopher Mark Byers & James Michael Moore deserve justice as well.
    Also, JonBenet Ramsey.
    Gone but never forgotten, sweet children. 💔💔💔💔🥀🥀🥀🥀

  6. There’s something so wicked and heartbreaking about how quite a lot of these murderers have some sort of affiliation with church, the last place you’d expect to find a killer.

    I’m saying this as a Christian myself, not to attack anyone’s faith, but more highlighting how people use religion to justify these evil crimes😔😔😔

  7. What the fuck is wrong with the American justice system!? “If I show you where the body is of the boy I abducted and murdered, will you please not charge me with abduction and murder?”, “Yeah sure”.

  8. The look on the face of "The Golden State Killer" is just a single word for me…

    "Huh?"

    He NEVER thought he'd be caught, so he was still in disbelief when they snapped that pic!

  9. The cold case I’d be hoping to see you get a break in is the case of Mickelle Biggs kidnapped from Mesa Az in the early 90’s. I was around same age and lived in same neighborhood. A lot of us from that neighborhood still often wonder what really happened

  10. Okay people the church does NOT condone murder and the death penalty is not a good idea either what about the people that ARE IN FACT falsely accused? A lot of innocent people are locked up every single day for things they didn’t do so when they are sentenced to death how does that make US any better than the actual killers? It doesn’t! There are always extenuating circumstances in every case to consider too! The ones that do it for no reason other then the thrill definitely don’t deserve to be released but what about self defense and accident cases where the jury locks them up anyway they don’t deserve death any more than the truly innocent ones do

  11. Los Cruces bowling alley murders. That haunting 911 call from the little girl who survived has always stuck with me. So heartbreaking for what she went through, but she survived. What an amazing fighter

  12. I think the worst types of murder are the ones that go unsolved. There's so much suffering with friends and family who just want to know what happened to their loved ones. And the worst part is that there's at least one person who probably knows something, and is still out there today
