Unsolved Mysteries • Page 9

Just read the comments on that article. Wow. Looks like everyone knows who did it. Don't think that name would be flying around so much if they weren't involved. Hopefully with the new reward and this show something happens.

 

There are 15 season of the original on the Roku Channel. I don't think I watched this as a kid much, I remember America's Most Wanted more but I loved this reboot so maybe I'll work backwards.

 

Does anyone remember the episode that was a haunted house and the owners would tape the light switches because they would go on and off so often, but then the tape would disappear?

That episode ruined me as a kid.

(also I'm not 100% sure it was Unsolved Mysteries and not Sightings)

 

Watch the old show guys. The late 80s/early 90s episodes rule.

 

I watched it growing up, and I’m certain I could google this myself, but does anyone know if there were any cases that the old show featured that ended up being solved?

 

I'm also not going to Google it, but I'm pretty sure they had a hand in solving a ton of cases. Didn't they do follow up segments about them?

 

I think so? It’s been so long, I genuinely don’t remember a whole lot about the old episodes.

 

Law enforcement couldn't find Alonzo for a month but the family did in hours? What incompetence.

 

From those posts he was most likely stored somewhere and then dumped after police searched. Regardless where the hell are all the forensics? No shoe prints or tire tracks? I know they don't go into a lot detail in the episodes, but there was obviously a cover-up by the local sheriff, they're saying it has to do with a well-connected family in the area and possibly the son of a judge.

 

The sheriff wouldn’t even show his face on camera ... he definitely knows someone who knows something or did it and is covering up a hate crime in his racist town.

 

Dude in ep. 2 I would've been terrified if I was the camera person in the room with her husband when he got the knife out to open her ashes.

 

just finished the last one. i think my favorite was the ufo one. i honestly don't know how anyone can reasonably think it's anything other than aliens. actually tho, is it that far-fetched in this strange existence we live in? that last episode was amazing too--what a compelling and tragic story. I really hope some of these get solved because of this show.

 

AMA with a woman who wrote a book about the Rey Rivera case.

For the first couple episodes I feel like these aren't so much "unsolved" mysteries as they are mysteries that police refused to acknowledge the obvious truth about.

 

Alonzo's friends fucking suck. How could you let your friend be alone at a party where they KNOW folks are slinging the N word.

 

Honestly I felt like it was a combo of white privilege and optimism bias. I've heard so many stories of teens and young adults leaving friends in bad situations at parties or clubs and I can't help but think they just don't believe that bad things will happen to them or that someone else will take care of the friend. One of them made a color blind esque comment during the interviews so I don't think they recognized wtf they were doing

 

Having lived with a lot of male roommates throughout college, I agree. Not that uncommon for ignorant men in their early 20s. It's super shitty and self centered, but I don't think they had conscious, bad intentions

 

The UFO one creeped me out... mainly because my Dad grew up in Sheffield, MA and I spent a lot of time there when I was a kid snowmobiling and what not. Crazy. That said, the episode itself was not one of my favorites lol.

 

Just started episode 4. Alonzo's friend is absolutely too old to be wearing Hollister.

 

Hahaha I didn't even notice that

 

The last episode is a fucking tragedy. Like what? That’s how it ends???

I would be terrified to agree to be filmed for this very popular Netflix show if THAT is the result of the murders.

 

I really hope the people of reddit will solve one of these with all the evidence and whatnot that Netflix unloaded onto the sub. That’d be amazing.

 

Or maybe Reddit shouldn’t be investigating anything ever again after the marathon bombing
