Hey Everyone,
First post, but I've been a longtime UM fan. Unfortunately due to exams my recollection of the past week or so of episodes has been hazy. I remember a particularly compelling case of a teenager who was abducted by the Outlaws biker gang and sold about the country and as of airdate had not been found but was still believed to be alive. Any addition info? Also, there was a case of a man with the last name of MacLeod who was a hollywood producer convicted of child abuse who fled to Canada. The show indicated that he was found dead years later and that further updates would be forthcoming but I couldn't find any additional info when I googled it. Info on either or both cases would be appreciated.

The first one sounds like Amy Billig, kidnapped from Coconut Grove in Miami at age 17 in 1974. If you search for her name you'll find plenty of threads and speculation on this board.
The biker gang and passed around ("mute") aspect is more theory than fact. But in 1996 there was a deathbed confession from a biker, who claimed Amy was snatched the day she disappeared, then raped, drugged, murdered and dumped in the Florida Everglades. Police say it was probably true, but could not confirm it.
The mother, Susan Billig, died of cancer last year at age 80.

I believe they said he was found dead near some railroad tracks and he was thought to have died of a heart attack.
Welcome to the board! :wave:

The second case you mentioned (about the child molester) was David Leigh MacLeod. Interestingly enough, he was a movie producer. He has a page on the IMDB:

Anyone else think it was ironic that he tried to solicit young men for sex, and he had a producing credit for "The Pick-Up Artist?"
Could be a totally inappropriate joke, but I was slightly amused by the irony of it all.

There was another case that I don't remember the details to. There was this guy in Southern CA who went to an ATM at night and the ATM camera shows his killer's profile. The victim was found in a ravine and his car was recovered parked on the side of the road. Can someone give me more details. That case really creeped me out. When I lived in Long Beach, CA, I went to the mountains above Pasadena and had to pull over to use the bathroom in a ravine and that ravine reminded me of that case. Very spooky it was.
