Unaired Cases on Lifetime - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Okay, so from the original NBC and CBS episodes, what cases/episodes has Lifetime never aired. Also, if you know of a case, when did that case originally air?

I know they've never aired the Pre-Stack episodes.

Have they ever aired the 12/2/92 episode in which the murder of Eva Shoen is profiled?

Yes, they have. It has also been the subject of a Cold Case Files episode entitled "Terror in Telluride."

In response to your first question, one of the UM cases never rerun on Lifetime was the 1981 murders of Roxanne Jo Jeeves and her son Kristopher Korper. NBC aired it on April 27, 1994.

Despite having seen the segment only once, I found it significant because the date of the murders happened to be Kristopher's fifth birthday. Roxann and Kristopher were murdered December 23, 1981 (two days before Christmas).

I originally thought the Eva Shoen case never aired on Lifetime either but was suprised when I obtained an episode recorded off of Lifetime in the early 90's and there was an Eva Shoen segment along with an update and footage of the man arrested for her murder.

Here are some others that to my knowledge haven't aired on Lifetime:

Eric & Pam Ellender - shot to death in their bed in Lousiana possibly by satan worshippers. Their infant daughter was left unarmed. There is even a possibility that the murderers and their friends had a drug party in the Ellender's home after the murder.

Tony Alamo - real nutcase. He was a self styled preacher with a cult-like following and then ventured into making sequined jackets. His wife died of cancer and he was so distraught he made his followers pray for her resurrection.

Melody Martin - This is such a strange one. She was white and she married a black man and had 3 children with him. After the third child she seemed to go insane. The third child was very light skinned so Melody favored her. The child's given name was Poloma but Melody suddenly developed a hatred for black people. She would really mess with this poor little girl's mind trying to poison her against blacks and even started calling her Jubilee. Needless to say she got divorced and had all 3 children for visitation one day. I felt so bad for the 2 older darker skinned kids as the mother literally left them on the steps of the museum while she abducted Poloma. Thankfully there was also an update where she was captured and Poloma was returned to her dad.

Doyle Wheeler - former SD policeman who said he was assaulted in his home. He believes some former cops he previously worked with could be responsible.

Rogest Cain - elderly man (resembling Lou Rawls) goes missing possibly after having a stroke or amnesia. He's been sighted but is still missing.

Lester Garnier - undercover policeman shot & killed in his car.

"Debby" - raped and shot in the face. Looking for her killer.

Also the update of Keri Lynn Nixon where she was supposedly spotted on a New Kids On The Block video. Two of the NKOTB members even made an on camera appeal to Keri.

I'm sure there are lots more but those are just off the top of my head.

Considering the fate of Keri Lynn Nixon, it's so sad that her parents were given the false hope of "seeing" Keri on the New Kids on the Block video. However, how cool was it that the Knight brothers made their on-camera appeal to Keri? I had SUCH a crush on Jonathan Knight when I was young...

they do the show an injustice by not airing the pre-Stack shows

When did these air?

Also, I know Lifetime has aired the Wadada segment in the past. They haven't aired since before July 05. Does anyone know when it originally aired?

I remember the kari lynn nixon episode. You said "considering her fate." What was the update on that case?

A man confessed to killing her the same night that she had disappeared.
This was definitely one of the more saddening updates that I've seen.

Can't say I remember the Tony Alamo case or know anything about the guy.

Did a search and found out he was born in my hometown of Joplin, Missouri though.... thought that was somewhat interesting

After looking through those links, I didn't see any mention of the case of Eileen Mangold. I remember Lifetime airing this case years ago in the half-hour format. For the record, has it ever aired as part of an hour broadcast on Lifetime?

As far as the Wadada segment it aired on 6-15-94. It doesn't mention that particular segment in the episode guide but I have the complete NBC episode of it and all the other stories listed on there fit.

As far as when the other's aired I don't know for sure but the ones I listed (which I have) I believe aired in the early 90's.

I don't remember seeing it recently but I have a 1 hour Lifetime episode from 12/23/92 and it has the story on there.

I found that this segment aired on February 2, 1994.

Lifetime hasn't aired this segment in a very long time! When they air the 2/2/94 episode, this segment has been replaced with other segments. Also, according to the Lifetime schedule, this case was supposed to be profiled on July 6th. I did manage to record that episode but found that it had been replaced.

Does anyone know anything about this? Why does it seem that this case is being edited out?

Actually, at one point I saw the Rogest Cain case on Lifetime. A few years ago now. Remember the episode vividly for some reason.
