      A lot of times, they are “missed” in that their family doesn’t know where they are, but they’re never reported missing because they either go “missing” a lot (due to drugs, mental illness, etc) or they give their family some reason to not look for them. Oftentimes with cults, they tell their families that they’re leaving, which gives the family no reason to look for them. People miss them in that they’re like “Hmm, I miss my relative” but they don’t know that they’re missing-missing. On the other hand, there are also a lot of people who have no family or friends to miss them. I’m really not decided which is sadder.

      @@caittails Pretty sure that any family who loved their 'missing' person would report them as missing eventually. Even if it wasn't unusual or surprising for them to be 'missing'.
      And the same with someone who disappears off to a cult.
      Nobody should just be saying "Well, they told me they were going, so it's normal that I've never heard from them again".
      There is never a good reason when people just accept that someone in their family has 'disappeared' without informing authorities (even if much later on).
      The only reason I can think of is that they didn't love them enough and don't really care.

    Henry Lee Lucas infamously confessed to any crime. It allowed him access to lots of desired things. The officers made a point of being friendly with him in an attempt to get all of the information. Eventually, they realized that Lucas had looked through case files when the officer stepped out of the room, etc. and that is how he knew details of crimes he literally could not have committed. So now, you hear that Lucas confessed and, if anything, you roll your eyes and assume it will forever be cold then, sadly.

I was a young lawyer out of San Antonio and had Carrizo Springs (Dimmit Co) as one of my covered territories for court. One day I was hurriedly making my way to the courtroom and was rounding a corner when WHAM…straight into the chest of a handcuffed prisoner!!! Each hand was cuffed to two different Texas Rangers (stereotypical tall John Wayne Stetson wearing cowboys) so he could even deflect me almost bowling him (and the Rangers) backwards. Realizing the situation I offered my apologizes to both the Rangers and Mr Lucas. He was the only one to smile (only one eyed open) and say, “no problem, you have a nice day.”

    @johnathansaegal3156 Před 5 dny +20

    I believe the serial killer confession. If he knew facts that were never released to the public. The reason the DA did not file charges of her murder by him is that he was already convicted to be forever in prison. Another conviction would not do anything but spend taxpayer money and tie up the court system (things DAs do contemplate). Also, all he would have to do is retract his confession and then it would be a hard case to prove otherwise. His defense could say he knew who her killer was and that person told him all the extra details... then shut up. One more potential conviction would not change his sentence anyway, so they didn't go after him for that, leaving any future evidence found to lead to the actual killer if it wasn't him.

    21:36 When you fall from over 1500 feet your body literally shatters. Limb are torn off, the body is torn open and your head explodes. This is especially true if you hit the cliffside as you fall. The cliffs in Yosemite are typically over 2000 feet tall.
    A climber I knew once found a shoe at the base of Half Dome and was horrified to realize there was still a foot inside. He found the body near by, and it was not in one piece. (He was scouting for a good starting point for a planned climb). Half Dome has a face beyond 90 degrees meaning as you fall the cliff face gets farther away.

Same first name, appeared out of nowhere and bought 200+ acres of land, invited hippies to come live on the property. The group were part of the Native American Church where they did peyote as part of their religion. I've heard numerous stories of the leader SA'ing young males in the group.

    Genetic geneology is when they get your complete profile and then compare that profile to profiles stored on databases which use them to give their clients information of where their ancestors are from, what nationality they came from and can also identify possible future medical issues they might incounter. The companies will, at times, allow state law enforcement agencies and the US DOJ, FBI etc, to match a persons genetic profile to profiles that they have on record in order to identify family of missing Jane or John Does. They also are able to use this data to find the identity of anyone who left their DNA on a victim and has also sent their DNA into one of those geneology sites. Oh, and if one of their family members has given their DNA as law enforcement will interview people and ask questions about their family members.

    That info about Patricia possibly being arrested may be correct.

If the individual is not in the system, sometimes they can link the DNA profile to a family member instead.
