George Peacock, 76, and his wife, Catherine, 73 were creatures of habit. So much so, that when George did not show up at a local convenience store one morning in his hometown of Danbury, Vermont to get the paper, the clerk noticed. He also did not show up for his part time job at the Rutland Travel Lodge on Sunday, September 17, 1989. Friends of the couple were asked to go check their home.
What they saw there shocked them. Both George and Catherine were dead, and both had been stabbed multiple times. There was no forced entry into the home so it must have been someone they knew. The couple's three daughters and their husbands were interviewed, and their middle daughter, Penny, had a husband named Michael Luis whose story kept changing for the day of the murders. It would take over 30 years and modern science to finally solve the case of the senseless killings.

Mary McGinnis Morris was murdered by being shot in the head on October 16, 2000. The two women were killed in towns that were only 30 miles apart.
The Texas police considered the women's deaths to be coincidences, since the two did not know each other and had never met. But many believe that two women with the same name, same look and who lived in neighboring towns were killed because of a case of mistaken identity. But who wanted one or both of them dead?

Blair Adams was from Surrey British Columbia, Canada, was 31 years old and had a good job as a construction site manager. He had struggled with drugs and alcohol at one point in his life, but, at the time of his death, had been sober for two years. On Friday, July 5th, 1996, Blair went to the bank and drained his checking and savings accounts. He then tried to get over the Canadian border to Seattle, Washington by ferry. He was turned away because of the large amounts of cash and gold coins he had with him. On Monday, July 8th, Blair, without warning, quit his job at the construction site and left for the airport to buy a $1700 ticket to Germany. But, instead of going to Germany, he purchased another round-trip ticket to Washington D.C. and made it to the nation's capital. From there, he rented a car and drove south.
And this is where Blair Adams' story gets even stranger. From "losing" the keys to the rental car, to driving to Knoxville, Tennessee, to loitering in the lobby of a hotel for an hour, to being found dead in the parking lot of another hotel under construction on the morning of July 11, Blair Adams' mystery death gets even creepier. Was he murdered in cold blood, and, if so, for what reason? Or was his death simply a tragic accident?

On the morning of Sunday, August 12th, 2012, a 16-year-old High School student, Jane Doe, woke up in Steubenville, Ohio, about 15 miles from her hometown of Weirton, West Virginia. She woke up in a strange basement and had no idea where she was. She was missing her earrings, underwear and cell phone. In the room with her were tow boys, aged 16 and 17, named Trent May and Malik Richmond. Jane remembered very little from the night before, only that she had been at a few parties with the Steubenville Varsity Football players, and, after texting some friends, that she had also been raped.
The following year would bring chaos to Steubenville, Ohio. Accusations, denials, lawsuits, hackers, crime blogs and an article in the New York Times would divide this small town. It was their word against hers, and they were the star football players. Until damning evidence in the form of text messages and a video came to light.
