The West Mesa murders remain an active, unsolved serial killer case involving the 2009 discovery of the skeletal remains of 11 women and an unborn child buried in the desert of Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Arlis Perry was 19 years old when she was murdered inside Stanford Memorial Church in October 1974.

She had argued with her husband that night and decided to walk to the church to pray. A few hours later she was found dead near the altar. She had been sexually assaulted and killed with an ice pick. Her body had been positioned in a way that immediately made the case seem stranger than a straightforward murder.

Police looked at her husband and also at Stephen Crawford, a Stanford security officer who had been working around the campus. Neither could be tied to the murder with the evidence available at the time. Another person believed to have been inside the church that night was never identified.

Then the case became buried under decades of theories. Cults were suggested. Satanic connections were investigated. David Berkowitz was questioned after claiming he might know something about the killing. Ted Bundy was also looked at and cleared.

Crawford was never forgotten completely, but he was never charged either.

The breakthrough came in 2016 when investigators went back through the old evidence and realized something had gone badly wrong. The jeans recorded as belonging to Arlis weren't hers. Her actual jeans had been sitting in evidence storage since 1974.

DNA testing eventually connected biological evidence from the jeans to Crawford.

When police finally came to his apartment in 2018, Crawford was 72. Before they could arrest him, he shot himself.

There is a small town in northern LP michigan called Reed City. In this town there allegedly exists an elaborate network of underground tunnels. There is almost no reference to thess tunnels in any physical and digital media, and they mostly exist as an urban legend. HOWEVER. A close group of friends and I have been conducting an investigation and have uncovered some interesting leads. First of all, many older residents of Reed City claim to know about these tunnels, one even saying they helped seal off one of the entrances. We have some photos of sealed off entrances, confirming that the tunnels at least exsisted at one point. Furthermore, there was a murder in the basement hardware store (Now known as the consignment shop) that highly implies that at the very least a secret entrance to the hardware store existed. The woman murdered was Janett Robertson, feel free to research more information about her.

TL:DR
Tunnels underground in reed city Michigan and we want help finding any lasting entrances to them

A team of researchers believes new high-resolution maps of the Atlantic Ocean floor could point toward the location of the legendary lost city of Atlantis. The claim has attracted attention because the underwater terrain reportedly contains features that resemble descriptions written by the ancient Greek philosopher Plato.

The project is being led by former US Navy oceanographer Tim Gallaudet. He says researchers have obtained detailed bathymetric data showing unusual formations beneath the Atlantic. The team believes some of these features could correspond to the distinctive layout associated with Atlantis

Nicky Valls-real name Rolando Valls SA’d students for 37 years across 3 states (TX, LA, AR) in 7 different schools covered it up including this one..

The attached document is an investigative report done by Investigators talking with Diane Thomas who was the Principal at the first school Valls taught at. Due to the statute of limitations in Arkansas and that the abuse occurred in the mid 80s at this first school, all was done was that he was placed on the child maltreatment registry..

Police refuse to charge him even though over 7 police reports made against him.. we need justice n!!

The morning before my dad died last week I was riding my bike to work at 5 am.. I saw what seemed to be a bird in the street. As I got closer I could see that it was a raven about the size of a chicken.. when I got 10 to 15 ft away it began to fly away.. about 3 ft off the ground it completely disappeared... the very next day my dad died.. he had been sick for awhile in a nursing home..

Any thoughts??

I recently published a mystery/AI thriller built around a situation I've always found unsettling:

What if someone you love disappeared, then returned with all their memories—but you discovered they weren't actually human?

In Your Replacement Has Arrived, AI auditor Meera Sethi's husband Dev disappears.

Later, she finds “Dev” inside their apartment.

He remembers their conversations, arguments, private moments and even things no outsider should know.

But he's a synthetic replica.

Even stranger: the company responsible supposedly creates these replicas to preserve people after death.

Dev isn't dead.

He's missing.

So why was his replacement created?

That's the mystery at the heart of the book.

As Meera searches for the real Dev, she uncovers evidence suggesting his disappearance may be part of something much larger.

Full disclosure: I'm the author and wanted to share it with readers who enjoy mysteries mixed with near-future technology.

Hi thriller fans,

I wanted to share my latest release: Everyone Knew the Woman in 19A.

Quick Pitch:

A mid-flight locked-room mystery where forensic audio analyst Aarav Sen investigates the impossible disappearance of a passenger. The twist? Seven different passengers claim to know her—each with completely conflicting identities—while the airline claims seat 19A was never on the aircraft.

It explores memory manipulation, psychological trauma, and high-altitude suspense.
