I'm so relieved to see these cases are moving forward. I grew up in a family with a missing person. My entire childhood was spend talking about him. As an adult I was able to start searching for him. Two years ago I finally got the answers I thought we would never have. It's agonizing to go through life with pain and loss but without answers.
I want to send you virtual hugs! I cannot even begin to imagine what that is like! May your family member rest in peace! May you find peace of mind! Faith helps! 🙏🏾❤️
@@AidaShawJ.D. thank you!
A school mate went missing a couple of years ago. It made the news, and we were all extremely concerned for her and her family. She was found, about a week later. I can't imagine the pain and confusion of this being a family member, missing for a lifetime.
I'm so happy you got answers ...
Forensic science is amazing
God's technology
@@curtisbrown5939 So God made the iPhone , CZcams ..? Very silly..Is men invention
It really is! I hope they solve every cold case and modern case that are possible to solve
@@curtisbrown5939 AMEN MR. BROWN, AMEN!! 🙏🏾👍🏾🙏🏾
It's absolutely incredible...
I love the passion that couple has for solving old cases.
You mean her mother didn't report her missing, after not hearing from her all these years?
Don't tell anyone if you come into money - even trusted friends.
Bassgirl: Amen to that. We talk too much, share too much.
@@KM-nq7ez Exactly.
@@sheilasmith7779 At times, for sure.
I don't know why folks share so much.
I think people let their guard down when around people they know and trust. Sadly this can be a mistake.@@currypowder15
This is amazing that this company can do this. I have lost a child. Not to crime or violence. I do now however have a deep empathy for parents that have lost a child this way. I can not imagine going through this nightmare. I applaud you for helping after all these years...
Agree with you about that 🙂 I am sorry 4 your loss 😔 One of my two kids, she died at age 13 becuse of uncureable diseas 💔
But it must be so much worse 2 lose a kid becuse of violence or a crime 💔
@@Leyla7292 I feel you momma 💔
@@marnynottenkamper3925 Thank you 🙏🌺
God bless you
Eeeweeeeeeeweeeeeeeeeee
Thank you for giving these people they're names back...so important!💯👍!
Hi I wanted to suggest you make a playlist with all the true crime docs besides the one on the home page because you have such a variety of subjects on the channel. It will actually get you a lot more views because people fall asleep listening to the playlists or just continue watching. It’s a good series with good production values and I think it will be popular as more people come across it. Having them linked together in a playlist on the playlist page will probably help it grow faster and probably work better with the CZcams algorithm on channels that have a wide range of subjects. Sometimes I forget to look at the homepage and just look at the playlist page and if there isn’t one I move on to a different channel.
Agreed, I looked for a playlist.
I also look for playlists 👍🏼
Ditto! I looked too!
Thanks for this feedback! We have a Hometown Tragedy playlist, and we'll look into how we can make it easier to find.
Yep I'm guilty of falling asleep or just leaving my iPad or tv playing YT. I'm sure I've streamed stuff I don't even watch, so a playlist is a great idea!
Margaret Fetterolf (December 27, 1959 - September 11, 1976) was an American murder victim from Alexandria, Virginia, who was discovered on September 12, 1976, in Woodlawn, Baltimore County, Maryland. For 45 years, her body remained unidentified before being identified in September 2021 through DNA testing by National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, Bode Technology, and Othram.Prior to her identification, she was known as "Woodlawn Jane Doe", in reference to the area of the county her body was found.The murderer, or murderers, have never been apprehended
Crazy that WV has a lot of these types of cases.
I've been watching all the Hometown Tragedies. Nice little true crime treat I stumbled upon. Good stuff guys!!!
I'd like a massage
Best True Crime story telling I’ve ever heard. No extraneous facts that only confuse the listener. Fantastic job! Thank you for these. Looking forward to many more.
You have absolutely got my fav channel every since I found you! You're details about each case are critical when getting these cases out in publics eye...and you do a great job and the way you truly "deliver " with the actual reporting...amazing!!!×
How gutless was that man who knew the perpetrator for all those years and only spoke up after he died. Shameful. Please don't ever let on you've come into some money by whatever means. It can lead to tragedy.
I love when people are held accountable for the horrific crimes they’ve committed. Especially, when they believe they’ve gotten away with it, not on any forensic 🧬 watches👏🏾👏🏾⭐️
New addiction. Love watching your show .thankyou
All these advances in DNA technology send a strong message to criminals or would-be criminals, that no matter how perfect a crime is, they will be discovered.
Criminals don't care. They think they will get away with it no matter how good the technology is; it's the way their minds operate.
So glad I found your channel! I love true crime stories and your documentaries are amazing! Even know 70k subs is alot, I cant believe that you dont have way more! Your going to hit that 100k very soon and from there on you will just keep growing bc your videos are so well made! You will have endless amount of content bc there will always be cold and new murder cases! Cant wait to binge watch your videos tonight, sending loads of love from Louisville, Ky! 💌
Thank you for watching!
This is an excellent channel. Such great documentaries. Please keep making more.
Thank you! A new season of Hometown Tragedy will premiere in November.
Love these .I am hooked
Wonderful organisation giving names to the unnamed. Thank you for bringing us these tragic cases but with hope for closure.
Amen, for DNA and enhancements in science. I’m glad these individuals got their name back and or killer were caught and identified.
I love how they will find a body 500 years old and say she was 17 years old but they find one that just got killed and she's "somewhere between 15 and 30" lmao 🤣
Women were women back then. 🤷🏼♂️
Ain't that the truth 😅😅😅😅
Lmao! Yes
Think of the gas emitted from lmao 😅😅😅
Imagine being a murderer in the 80's thinking you're slick and then you find out about DNA in the 90s.
they might be pooping themselves!
@@lindanorris2455 I haven't pooped myself in a really long time 🙏🏻
@@justadildeau About to poop myself tonight just for the nostalgia.
The tattoos “JP” they only briefly touched on, is usually something pimps do to mark their girls. They used to only mark the neighborhood nickname, but in more modern days, they mark the girls using the pimps actual nickname.
Which, they used to only do territory because it’s harder to link back if the girl is arrested. Now there being so many pimps, they use the name and they don’t really care about consequences because it usually only the girls who always get in trouble. The pimps and the johns hardly ever see charges unless it’s related to drug and weapons. Rarely charging the males with the actual crime of prostitution itself.
Interesting thought.
FUNNY HOW THE POLICE DO NOT HAVE PRIVVY TO SUCH INFORMATION? HUH?
Advances in technology have helped so many people. Thank you all for your hard work and dedication.
Just found your channel can’t believe you don’t have a million subscribers yet this is very good reporting love it
Not VERY local...imlive in Yorkshire, England and really appreciate your reporting!
Die Forensik ist so fortgeschritten das so mancher Fall aufgeklärt wird auch die Ermittler haben gute Arbeit geleistet 👍
I started reading this in Afrikaans that was "mistyped" until I realised it's Dutch😂😂😂
Amen to that. I wonder what mind blowing technology the future holds for forensics now.
I’m glad to see these murders finally getting caught… I wish it was sooner than later…thanks for the video’s…
Oh! THEY will spend an eternity paying for their crimes unless they repent.....Our amazing God, Don't like ugly!
This narrator is great.
So the tipster knew who it was all those years and protected them and only told cops 1 day after the murderer died. Sad for her family suffering all those years.
The flour or wheat bag for JP was rare....Maybe they should look into those five stores.... Fascinating scientific progress. Great cases. Thanks for the upload.
You dont think theyve done that? They have it was a dead end.
@@carolgreen9648
I'm not to sure... are you?
They didn't find the baby oil I used
I feel as though they could have captured Margaret’s killer very easily back in the day, but now the evidence is lost to time.
Witnesses saw the van that dropped the body? Keys were left at the scene as well as a bag only found in 5 shops in the same area as the key was from? Did they do a rape kit? Did they swab the keys or ties or rope or bag even? I feel as though if they had gone to the shops and asked for their records they could narrow down who had recently bought the feed bags and cross reference with those who had purchased keys from the key maker that made the keys found at the scene? Idk. Cross reference that even with those who own the van make seen at the site of the body?
3 beautiful lives snuffed out for no reason. 2 of those of beautiful lady's that was lived greatly by the community and the 3rd that only God knows the full potential of what that child could have become. Very sad and heartbreaking. The smiles both women had will always be imprinted on the hearts and souls of the entire community.
Back in the days 59 was like being 69 70 year old. I just noticed how young some 59 year old can look in this 21st century. Poor lady so sorry you had to die that horrible way 🙏😭
I though she was a much older woman also
Because women were not bombarded with Botox and facelifts back then
You do a GREEEAT JOB on these cases !!! ❤
Thank you. RIP. Hope justice is done in time.
I have been watching true crime docs, and it is always so sad to see these lives cut short 💔 they deserved to live and enjoy life 💔 rest in peace
Really fascinating.
I’ve lost family. But I had the pleasure of sending them off. To loose someone and never know would eat me alive. Good work 👍🇦🇺
Awesome work well done in solving these cases and many more thinking of the loved ones who could now have some type of closure it's quite sad they have to wait for a very long time great job to the officers and everyone who works on these cases
Loved this episode
Cheers for the upload, Hello from LONDON
Bravo guys these people need answers and justice
My condolences to the family members of the Case.
Such amazing and beautiful job keep doing what y’all do
Wonderful!!!!
I just found this channel thanks to YT algorithm! Great work you guys! Very well produced and presented! The narrator/reporter’s voice is very professional and pleasing! Great work!
great report
GREAT Channel.
Heartfelt 💔
Just came across your channel. Love your No-Frills approach, excellent content.
Much success to you!
Cool. Thank you.
This is so amazing. Science is truly fascinating.
I am glad the family can have some closer and healing May she Rest In Peace
New subscriber here! Make a Playlist of "HOMETOWN TRAGEDY" Please.
This is a wonderful thing secrets are not kept I hope cases are solved in the droves .
My condolences to the family members of the Case
How wonderful....
✨
Thank god they have this technology, to bring closure to victims families.
The way these police departments saved evidence even though there was absolutely nothing they could do with it at the time is astonishing. I feel so bad for the families of the murdered and missing (or any other violent crime) not being able to at least have the closure of knowing what happened, no matter how horrible it might be, at least you can begin or attempt to move on… it’s the not knowing for me…
I want a forensic science job so bad. Ever since I was young I wanted to solve crimes like Sherlock Holmes and I love science and looking for things. Finding perspectives to see if there is any connections any hidden clues. I wish I could get a job even just helping people search since I hike so much but there just isn't much around where I live or I definitely would try to offer or find a way to help with searches.
Kenneth can plead not guilty but the DNA proves otherwise.
It's that near the Bennington Triangle? Because people should stop getting near any area that has the word "triangle" after it's name.
Ok another true crime I'm following 🙂 so addictive.. 🙏
I'm a new sub keep up the great work
DNA-mazing!
~ Rest in Forever Peace Margaret, Virginia and Terrance.
Othrum is THE best!! I keep watching them solve lots of cases.
Justice never comes late
Nice there's a practical concrete solution. I hope these reports leads to murders being solved.
Pushing the adds too much
A MASSACHUSETTS CASE FINALLY SOLVED? THANK YOU , OTHRAM!
How can you stab someone 73 times..?! It baffled me
Incredible science 👏 x
So the tipster waited until the day after Aylward died to to come forward? That's disgusting.
tipster called police to say it was Jesse Aylward, of Brockton, who killed Virginia Hannon.
Great show, new subscriber here..
So your child ran away and you didn't try to find her or report her missing!? And no family members tried either!? No wonder she ran away as they didn't care to know where she was. Just so sad she ran into danger and how terrified she was.😭 RIP Angel.
every child who ran away is a pathetic mess believe me
The brother had a smile on his face I didn't like that
@@brendasullivan9094 yeah. was weird
Thank God for new technology.
I’m from Alexandria VA so scary!!$
The last case, where the store clerk was found stabbed to death in the restroom- how could the cops say that they had nothing to go on? The toilet was still there.
I commend the law officials. That never give up on this case. No matter how long it took. I also commend the family spokesperson. Everything he said was so true. Even though the offender is dead. Believe me in the afterlife. He will face his greatest punishment. What he did to the victim(s). Will be done to him for all eternity. It is important. To know more info about the offender. Just in case. He committed other crimes. That were never discovered. Hope the family gets the answers/information. They are waiting for. It's a horrible/unjust nightmare. That no victim and their families should ever endure.😢😓⚖️
Thank God for some technology 👏🏽
I love this narrator voice❤️🥰❤️
Glad her family can give her a proper burial.. my condolences to her family. Rip beautiful angel.
💯❤🙂
I just love 💘
Ok, that lady has the best hair I've ever seen. What do you use?!
True crime is so intriguing, it's anazing what modern technology can do for good.
It’s very sad that it would never have been solved if it wasn’t for the tipster!!!!
I remember this store growing up in Orlando smh I would have been really young back then so it makes sense why I never heard about this. Wow 😮
Awesome! Wasn't Bodie a character in Point Break? Cool.
Passed that convenience store all the time in Florida, the crime happened before u
I was born but it just goes to show you even in your back yard there is history and some times tragedy.
Neta ,yes it certainly is!
You never know what you find at a crime scene is useful so you take what you can find ,sometimes the offender leaves a piece of themselves behind .
Thoughts and prayers go out to the family. I am glad that police officer did not create another negative outcome by crossing the double yellow lines @13:50
So he waited until they couldn't touch his friend before he came forward. Well sir, don't expect a thank you from me. You're selfishness staying silent for so long, prolonged the agony of the victims family, who will never see the killer even charged with the crime. If you have a conscience I hope the guilt keeps you awake at night. I know I sound harsh, but I'm still waiting.
Surely,that’s withholding evidence,and chargeable.
It’s called being a collaborator. They will go to hell too.
Not fogotten any longer
It blows my mind that these investigators save things with no knowledge that it can be used to solve murder cases that have been sitting on shelves for a very long time. Were they guessing what to keep?
Manda: The " saving," was an act of God.
@@sheilasmith7779 yes it's crazy like what made them save that for so many years.
Why didn’t they bring charges against the person for withholding information?
And you have got UK Leicester University's Prof. Alec Jeffreys to thank for that.
Please try and solve the case of ' the Boy in the Box', that poor boy needs to be identified at least, that sweet little boy needs justice!
Yes I know that story its very sad......💯💔
That's good thing that they are solving all of the cold cases with the DNA that they have on the Case. That's cool 😎.,.,
Withholding the info of a murder is a crime!!!
