what are your thoughts?

I'd be suprised to see the Amy Billig case solved. The case is pretty old and whoever took her is probably getting up there in age. I havent given up hope, just think it will only be solved many years from now when someone "finds" proof or spills the beans long after justice on here on earth can be done...

DarkDante · 06-08-2005, 02:01 AM

The Billig case is basically solved or at least according to Susan Billig she is not persuing any new leads. The possibility of Amy still being alive are slim to none and you have a confession from someone involved in her disappearance as well (this person passed away a few years ago) and although it's possible he was lying there are some validity to his statements.

The two cases I'd like to see solved are "Jennifer Pratt" (because it seems so damn solveable - In fact I would not be surprised if this wasn't already solved and we just weren't updated - Remember Sheila Kimmel had to get in contact with UM to update Lisa's case - there might be quite a number of cases like that) and "Nyleen Kay Marshall" which is still obviously unsolved.

Later.

The Lost Dutchman's Mine. The Found Dutchman's Mine just doesn't have the same ring.

Plus if it's me I ain't tellin'.

Don't forget the case about the two sociopathic grandparents who kidnapped their two grandchildren. I would be shocked if that case was solved. The kids are adults by now and I'm surprised they haven't looked for their parents. I was also astounded when Randolph Dial was captured and Bobbie Parker was returned to her family.

DarkDante · 06-08-2005, 02:51 PM

The case of the Baskin children who were abducted by their nutso grandparents Marvin and Sandra Maple is very solveable now that the children are in their early-mid 20s. The problem is there have not been any "reported" sightings of them since 1989 I believe. Both Robbie and Katherine Baskin would obviously look very different now then they did over ten years ago when they were last sighted. The problem could lie in this fact.

Later.

I would be shocked to see the case solved about a woman who was pregnant and I think either raped or taken at knife/gun point. She had stopped for what robert stack called a "soft drink." I remember the segment because they had covered up the pepsi logo on the soda machine. The man followed the woman and she saw him stop in front of her house. I think he stabbed her, but she didn't lose her baby. It was really scary and probably included a scary composite.

That case and that I-70 freeway serial killer.

mercy1825 · 06-10-2005, 11:34 AM

How about the Las Cruces New Mexico Bowling Alley Massacre??!!!???!!!???!!

I want that case solved so bad, primarily to see why these thieves felt the need to callously execute innocent children when it obviously wasn't necessary for them to make their escape. Such unnecessary brutality is really troubling to the soul.

And Richard Bockledge. I mention him frequently on this board. I would like to see him caught and I am somewhat surprised he hasn't been due to his distinctive appearance.

Kemistry · 06-10-2005, 12:47 PM

I'd be shocked if he's alive that William Bradford Bishop is caught.

McFly121 · 06-11-2005, 01:43 AM

Those are some of the saddest, where people are inexplicably killed for no reason but a trigger happy idiot. They haven't seen your face, why shoot?? Like the Dan Short case (glad that was solved). Not only why kill him, why so sadistically?

I think the bowling alley one was where they were huddled in a room and all shot while on the ground?? One survived maybe? Havent seen it in awhile.

Yeah, I'd love to see the Billig case have some closure most of all.

themaninblack · 06-11-2005, 08:53 AM

what about the dozzier case, where all those women were missing in the boat scam? did they ever find the women?

DarkDante · 06-11-2005, 01:53 PM

[QUOTE=McFly121.Yeah, I'd love to see the Billig case have some closure most of all.[/QUOTE]

There is a book on it "Without A Trace" - there is some closure to this case or at least a very good hypothesis about what happened to Amy and when she died and how and who was involved.

I have trouble believing either Bocklidge or Bishop will be found. I think Bishop knows too much about where to hide out internationally to be caught very easily. As for Richard Bocklidge yes I think this case is solveable but for some reason I also think he is no longer in North America and probably fled the continent. I don't know I just have a gut feeling on that one.

As for Bob Dozier and John Russell its amazing that when they were captured they were not charged with at least trafficing drugs let along the mysterious disappearances of Kristen Tomlin or Dozier's wife. I think they both got very short sentences and are probably already out of jail by now - It seems that they committed the so called "perfect crime" here.

One case I'd like to add to the list is Clifford Sherwood - Is he still alive? - Did his dad (under the alias Edward Thorne) successfully create a new identity for him? - What about Clifford's friend who disappeared on the same day as he did - Were his remains ever found? - Were both boys abducted/murdered?

One other one that was on yesterday is the case of Russell Evans? - What exactly happened there? - The case for a hit and run accident doesn't hold much water in my book? - Who is Brian and why didn't he share anything with police regarding the knowledge of Russ's death? - Why didn't the police seem to care about all the evidence that pointed away from a "hit and run" and towards an altercation that lead to Russ's death?

Later.

The Amy Bradley case
The Rachel Cooke case-girl who went missing while jogging in her neighborhood
The Kristin Smart case

dynoguy88 · 07-05-2005, 03:29 PM

Aww, it really saddens me to hear the Baskin grandchildren (who were kindapped by their grandparents, that Maples) being mentioned in this thread. This case has stood out the most of any segment I have ever watched on Unsolved Mysteries. And some of you may already know that I wrote a letter to Mark and Debbie Baskin to let them know that they are in my prayers and I hope they will be reunited with Kristi and Bobby soon. This case REALLY does seem solvable but I think the reason the children haven't been found yet is because the Maples have most likely filled their heads with so many awful lies about their parents that they don't feel the need to ever look for them. Or they might have lied and told them that their parents have died. That's what drives me crazy the most, Kristi and Bobby are most likely living their lives not knowing that their grandparents are the villians here.

Some other cases that I'm losing hope on being solved -

1. William Bradford Bishop - He murdered his entire family in 1976 and STILL has not been captured. He must be in his late 60's or early 70's by now. It makes me sick that even if they somehow catch him, he'll die of old age not long after being thrown in jail where he belongs. He obviously has some psychological problems - losing a premotion at work shouldn't force you to stoop this low. And even if his wife and mother constantly told him he was underachieving in life, as mentioned in the segment, I'm surprised it would force him to snap like that.

2. Nyleen Kay Marshall - I hold out hope that she is still alive but this case is going to need some sort of miracle if it is to ever be solved. It's possible her abductor has raised her as his own all of these years but if any of you read parts of the letter that was flashed on the screen, you must have been disturbed by some of the comments that were written. I don't know what to make of it. If Nyleen is alive today, sadly, she probably has no memory of her parents and family and thinks her abductor is really her father. Hard to believe that today she would be 26 years old. Such a sad case.

3. Woman's face shredded by boat - Still no word on the idiot driver of that boat that almost killed those 3 women on the lake and destroyed the face of one of them. We can only hope that the boat driver (and his companion) can talk some day, but if they haven't talked in the last 10 years, who is to say that he'll talk any time soon. I doubt the driver ever returned to that lake and if he was on vacation at the time of the accident and actually lived far away - no way will he return. I guess it's better to be a coward and hide then to apologize to the person's life you almost ended. Leave the 3 women there to die in an accident you caused - there are simply no words to describe how awful this person is.
