I've been looking for the names of these cases for about two years now and I've described them to every person who uploads Unsolved Mysteries videos on YouTube and although, they say they sound familiar they still have no idea. I'm hoping someone here knows the names!

First Case:

Also, Ive asked about this case a million times to other unsolved mysteries uploaders but Im desperate to find it. Ok..this woman who seemed to be mentally disturbed she was would wake up in the middle of the night and start banging her head on the wall and the lights would go off and on. Then she disappeared...her husband was on unsolved mysteries...then there was an update...the husband killed his girlfriend when he caught her with another man i think and then drove to a field and killed himself.

Second Case:
The unsolved mysteries case about this woman who was a con artist...she drove a red car and i think she stole furniture..she put it in like a storage truck?

Welcome! That sounds like Doreen Marfeo (her husband's name was Stephen), but the rest of your description is unfamiliar. Her husband did claim she would wake up in the middle of the night and cry often in the weeks before she disappeared, but she never banged her head against a wall or anything like that.

First one is Doreen Marfeo. Second one is Liza Montgomery. Both cases should be on the video site.

Liza Montgomery was just an alias, her real name is Ellen Christine Juvera, as the authorities later found out. I think her name now is Ellen Juvera-Saiz.

The case where the woman bangs her head against the wall is a case where the wife took the kids but I don't remember the names! Sorry! I think it was a later case.

The second one... I think you mean the one where the woman was taking care of the retired judge who couldn't see well,and she stole all of his belongings from the house.Anyone recall his name??? When hired,she lied and claimed to have taken care of a royal family previosly.She exchanged all of his furniture for cheap items,and he couldn't see well enough to know the difference.She was even going to sell the house until the previous caretaker realized what she was up to.She would withdraw large amounts of money from his account as well,and go on nice vacations,and buy expensive gifts for her family.Is that the one you mean?

It sounds like maybe you have 2 cases mixed together? The one where the woman was banging her head against the wall and making the lights go on and off was the one where the woman (can't recall her name) abducted her baby,after her husb. had been given custody of her.She had bipolar disorder,but he didn't kill her.Not sure what other case it may be similar to,or that you may have it confused with.The baby's name was Savannah,I recall that much.

There are some episodes I've been looking for as well, this seemed like the appropriate place to post;

First one;
The body of a Jane Doe is found at the bottom of a cliff I believe. For some reason California rings a bell. Despite searching through national missing persons records and such, the body was never identified (possibly because she was never reported missing?)

The second;
A young adult female, who I believe lived alone takes cough syrup for a cold. She calls an ambulance when she can't breathe. It is later discovered that the cough syrup was laced with cyanide. I almost recall her passing away before the ambulance got there, but I can't say for sure.

Third;
Saw this when I was very VERY young, a girl lives with her family in some remote area, strange things begin happening. The one that sticks out in my mind is that she put a baby bottle in the microwave for 30 seconds, and the microwave would shut off and beep after 1 or 2 seconds, and this kept happening. I think the lady went missing or found dead or something to that effect. (Not much to go on, sorry)

Fourth;
A young boy in Ovid, NY (I remember this because it is near where I live) sends a message in a bottle into Seneca Lake. Years later he is written back from someone in Australia or something like that. The mystery was how did the bottle get from Seneca Lake to the Pacific/Atlantic ocean.

Put your detective skills to work, children!

The first one is the Dana Point Jane Doe.

The second is Patsy Wright, I think, but the poison involved was strychnine.

I'm blank on the third.

The fourth was Kevin Reeder looking for Bruce and Rosa.

Mother-of-God you're good! I just searched for and watched the Patsy Write episode, just like I remember it :)

I can't seem to find the Dana Point or Kevin Reeder videos anywhere online, but at least I know what to look for now. Thanks a bunch :)

Thought of another one, or two.

- A missing persons case, an older man who ran a fish hatchery or something to that effect. He went missing for I think 7 or so years, there was an update where he was found living under another name and had complete amnesia about his "real" life on the fish farm or whatever it was. I remember something about him riding a train somewhere and they suspected he was attacked and beaten over the head; hence the amnesia.

- another VERY vague one; a man killed someone, I think, his brother or something like that was in the police force involved in investigating the case, and the police chief ended up resigning office because of the all the scandal that surrounded the police's investigation into said murder. They all had cheesy cop mustaches and one of them was a dead-ringer for my uncle who passed away.

Craig Williamson. You can find some threads on here of us postulating that he may have been faking. Except I don't think he was missing for quite that long, but it was a good amount of time.
Here's the UM wiki article: http://unsolvedmysteries.wikia.com/wiki/Craig_Williamson

I'm sorry, this doesn't ring a bell for me. I hope one of the other posters can help you. :)

Jeanine Price. She experienced appliances going haywire and items flying around whenever she got angry, typically from the stress of her divorce and being a single mother. She didn't die or go missing, but she predicted the death of her half-sister whom she had never met; the women met and soon after, the half-sister died of a brain aneurysm. Jeanine underwent scientific testing to see if it could be detected what gave her such abilities.

Thanks a bunch!

I've been doing research all night watching various episodes trying to figure out what that police one is. I've eliminated Doyle Wheeler, Keith Warren, Curtis Pishon and Micheal Frankce thus far. At this point it's pretty much a dead end unless some other detail of the episode comes to mind.

Good find on Jeanine Price, I gave a very vague description, and everything you posted about it totally rings a bell, that's definitely her.

Glad I could help! I knew for sure it was her when you mentioned the microwave because of a memorable scene where the door to it blows open in the segment.

As for the police resignation episode, the only episode off the top of my head I can think of where policemen resigned is the Bordello Murders. I know there are more, but I can't think of any others right now. I'll let you know if I remember anything. :wave:

Was this the case of the Bad Chief? Greg Webb? Everything in your post matches the case except for who he killed- he killed a girl he knew that he apparently had been involved with. He was participating in the investigation into her disappearance until it came out that he had been conducting an affair with her. He was later caught and convicted for her murder.

The actor who portrayed Chief Webb had that cheesy mustache you mentioned.
