Elizabeth Ann Pfeifer’s troubling start in life

March 12, 2011 By Alice

Elizabeth Ann Pfeifer

Elizabeth Ann Pfeifer’s life was troubled from the start. Shortly after she was born on December 10, 1965, she was given up for adoption. The Pfeifer family had already adopted Laura, also from birth. As you can immediately tell, we have a DNA problem here. If we ever find items that may hold biological materials […]

Missing: Laura Henderson-Ibach

January 16, 2011 By Alice

leaning angel

Understanding the 1986 Laura Henderson-Ibach disappearance is not easy. This case is as mind-boggling as it gets. I call it a disappearance because Laura’s body has never been found. No forensic evidence points to a crime scene. Yet, two men are serving 99 years in prison. They have been convicted of kidnapping and first degree […]

Author Notes

Since 2009, I write about unsolved cases that need renewed media attention. I only do research and leave active investigations to the authorities.

My posts cover homicides, missing and unidentified people, wrongful convictions, and forensics as related to unsolved cases.

On book reviews: I only review select works of true crime, crime fiction, and historical fiction/mysteries. The stories have to fit my website's theme, tone, and research. It is my prerogative to not review a book. Please check the FAQ page for more.

My databases are free to the public. Cases are sorted by the victim’s last name.

If you have any questions about my website please check the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page, the About page, and the tabs in both menu bars. If you cannot find the answers there, please contact me.

Thank you,

Alice de Sturler
