I think Edward Zakrewski would have been a good one, thankfully though at least the FBI alert segment was enough to get him captured. Was just as brutal and shocking as the Brad Bishop murders.

The Springfield Three? Was that ever a mini segment on UM?

Apparently it was, but aired only once. I've seen arguments on this board that it ever aired at all on UM. I agree it should have been a full segment, whether there was a special alert or not.

Martha 'Doe' Roberts

I wish they had done an entire segment on Cline and rebroadcast it frequently to increase the circulation of his image around the country. It really could have increased the odds of him being recognized and caught. It's such a tragic story, and it ticks me off that he got away with it and was possibly able to become successful after what he did.

Interesting. I never knew that. I'd like to see it.

That case has intrigued me more and more over the last few years.

Yes definitely Cline, they had so much going for that story.

Some of them such as Larry Chism, Leslie Rogge, Dennis Lilly (known as Larry Dennis Miller on Unsolved Mysteries) and Michael McGuffy were presented as full segments on America's Most Wanted. I HAVE those A.M.W. episodes too.

Tyrone Theiss (sp.) had the potential to be a longer segment. Apparently, he was wanted for triple murder in Oregon: he got fired from his job at a gas station, then came back later and killed the three people in the station. He hasn't been seen since, and some people believe he may have committed suicide in the Oregon woods.

That would have been a good segment.

He was profiled on A.M.W. too. I wonder whatever may have happened to him, and why his case didn't get more exposure for that matter as well?

Eugene Kvet, who for some reason was almost like an afterthought on the Kurt Sova case.

Definitely Tryom Theiss, Michael Cline and Raymond Scoville. My bet is that Cline is still alive, had assistance from his relatives and has a family that knows nothing about what he did.

Julie Weflen's disappearance should have been a full length segment. Obviously she was kidnapped, probably by someone local who had previously seen her at the substation.
