Thank you

December 19, 2012 By Alice

Without you this would just be another blog but because you read it regularly, comment and brainstorm with me, you helped give these old unsolved homicides renewed media attention. In doing so, you gave comfort to the victims’ families who saw that their loved ones were not forgotten. And with that, you told them that they are not alone.

Grieving Angel

2012 is coming to an end and brings us one of the darkest Holiday Season’s ever.

The pain some of us had to endure this year is inhumane.

I do not have enough wisdom to post the right words of comfort for those families.

While browsing through my library, I came across some books about one of the few men in power who actually made sense to me: Albino Luciani. You may know him better as Pope John Paul I.

“We all have the duty of working to make the world a place of greater justice, more stable peace, more sincere cooperation.”  This was part of his first radio message to the world on August 27, 1978. On another occasion, he said: “And don’t be satisfied when your listeners are convinced: once they are convinced, they must act, they must act!”

Let’s make that our resolution for 2013.

Thank you for sharing!

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
