Since 2009, I write here about unsolved cases that need renewed media attention. I only do research and leave the active investigation of these cases to professionals.

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,
