Authorities on Long Island have identified a woman long associated with the Gilgo Beach murders investigation as Tanya Denise Jackson, a U.S. Army veteran who was living in Brooklyn at the time of her death in 1997. Jackson, also known as "Peaches," due to her tattoo, was born in Alabama. Her remains were discovered in June 1997, concealed in a container in a wooded area of Hempstead Lake State Park. DNA analysis conducted during the Gilgo investigation linked her to the remains of a female child found along Ocean Parkway near Cedar Beach in 2011. That child, identified as Tatiana Marie Dykes, has now been confirmed as Jackson's daughter. News 12 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Author Jesse Pollack joins me to discuss his new book Room 100: Sid, Nancy, and the Night Punk Rock Died and the latest documentary about the Gilgo Four, Gone Girls. One of the primary criticisms is that while "Lost Girls" and "Gone Girls" aim to highlight the stories of the victims, they do not delve deeply enough into their lives. For instance, Shannan Gilbert, who is presented as a central figure, is not explored in a way that reveals her complexities as a person. The documentaries gloss over significant aspects of her life, such as her aspirations to be an actress and singer, her financial struggles, and her experiences with domestic abuse. This lack of detail diminishes the audience's ability to empathize with her and understand the circumstances that led her to sex work. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On Saturday August 8, 1982 Beth Bramlett, a 17 year old white female, went to a party at Trading House Lake Reservoir with some of her friends. A fight broke out at the party and Beth decided to leave. That was the last time any of her friends saw Beth alive. At the crime scene, he said, Bramlett's body was laid across the tracks, face down, and didn't appear to have been brutalized, but when investigators turned her over, it appeared someone had chewed or gnawed, maybe even eaten a part of her body.

In this episode of "Who Killed...?, I dive into the intriguing tale of a disgruntled mill owner, undersheriff Neil Marshall, and Dr. Frank E. Thurber, who I believe is a distant relative. Set in the picturesque M-22 area near Traverse City, this episode explores the events surrounding a murder that took place on August 10, 1889, revealing the complexities of the case and the historical context behind it. Tune in for a compelling exploration of family history, mystery, and the lingering impact of past events. The story centers on a violent confrontation in 1889 between mill owner C.T. Wright and law enforcement officials, highlighting the tensions between individual business interests and legal authority. This incident occurred in Otter Creek, Michigan, where the lumber industry thrived. C.T. Wright was a significant player in the local economy as the Otter Creek Lumber Company owner. Wright's refusal to pay taxes on his mill property had led to a legal dispute with the township, creating a backdrop of tension that ultimately culminated in violence. The situation escalated when Deputy Sheriff Neil Marshall and Dr. Frank E. Thurber confronted Wright about his unpaid taxes.  Sources: https://www.newspapers.com/image/334063526/?match=1&clipping_id=159421994 https://www.newspapers.com/image/55698272/?match=1&terms=Frank%20E.%20Thurber https://www.newspapers.com/image/1111729315/?match=1&terms=C.%20T.%20Wright https://www.newspapers.com/image/1111729315/?match=1&clipping_id=159420734 https://www.newspapers.com/image/33445724/?match=1&terms=Frank%20E.%20Thurber https://www.newspapers.com/image/301345538/?match=1 https://www.newspapers.com/image/55699420/ https://www.newspapers.com/image/55698272/ https://www.newspapers.com/article/traverse-city-record-eagle/159377240/ Buy Larry Wakefield's books HERE The excerpts I read on this episode can be found in the book Aral: Ghost Towns of Michigan Volume I by Larry Wakefield, under the title, "Murder at the Sawmill."

Funny and social, Molly loved everyone. She was a blend of “Lucy” and “Forest Gump.” Just eight days after beginning her new job as a lifeguard at Cummins Pond, Molly was abducted. After three years of fear and the unknown, her bathing suit was found in a wooded area five miles away from the pond. In the weeks that followed, her remains were found and she came home bone-by-bone. Molly was laid to rest on her birthday, August 2, 2003. - Mass.gov Anyone with information on Molly's case is urged to call the anonymous tip line at 508-453-7575. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of "Who Killed...?, I dive into the intriguing tale of a disgruntled mill owner, undersheriff Neil Marshall, and Dr. Frank E. Thurber, who I believe is a distant relative. Set in the picturesque M-22 area near Traverse City, this episode explores the events surrounding a murder that took place on August 10, 1889, revealing the complexities of the case and the historical context behind it. Tune in for a compelling exploration of family history, mystery, and the lingering impact of past events. The story centers on a violent confrontation in 1889 between mill owner C.T. Wright and law enforcement officials, highlighting the tensions between individual business interests and legal authority. This incident occurred in Otter Creek, Michigan, where the lumber industry thrived. C.T. Wright was a significant player in the local economy as the Otter Creek Lumber Company owner. Wright's refusal to pay taxes on his mill property had led to a legal dispute with the township, creating a backdrop of tension that ultimately culminated in violence. The situation escalated when Deputy Sheriff Neil Marshall and Dr. Frank E. Thurber confronted Wright about his unpaid taxes.  Sources: https://www.newspapers.com/image/334063526/?match=1&clipping_id=159421994 https://www.newspapers.com/image/55698272/?match=1&terms=Frank%20E.%20Thurber https://www.newspapers.com/image/1111729315/?match=1&terms=C.%20T.%20Wright https://www.newspapers.com/image/1111729315/?match=1&clipping_id=159420734 https://www.newspapers.com/image/33445724/?match=1&terms=Frank%20E.%20Thurber https://www.newspapers.com/image/301345538/?match=1 https://www.newspapers.com/image/55699420/ https://www.newspapers.com/image/55698272/ https://www.newspapers.com/article/traverse-city-record-eagle/159377240/ Buy Larry Wakefield's books HERE The excerpts I read on this episode can be found in the book Aral: Ghost Towns of Michigan Volume I by Larry Wakefield, under the title, "Murder at the Sawmill."

From Robbie Ruinsburg The Trash Bag Killer – Patrick Kearney This episode explores the chilling case of Patrick Kearney, infamously known as the "Trash Bag Killer." Kearney was an American serial killer who operated in California during the 1970s, targeting young gay men. His modus operandi involved the brutal murder and dismemberment of his victims, who were often found stuffed into trash bags and discarded along highways. This gruesome practice not only earned him his notorious moniker but also underscored the horrific nature of his crimes. Kearney's background reveals a troubled childhood marked by bullying and trauma, which may have contributed to his violent tendencies. As a teenager, he began to fantasize about killing, with his first known victim being a hitchhiker he murdered in 1967. The podcast draws parallels between Kearney and other notorious serial killers, such as Jeffrey Dahmer, noting that while Dahmer sought to keep his victims alive for his twisted desires, Kearney preferred to kill quickly and then engage in necrophilia with the bodies.

In this episode of Who Killed...?, I look into recent developments in notable cases, including the Amy Mihaljevic investigation, the Delphi trial, and an update on serial killer Bruce Lindahl. I discuss the questionable article from the Advertiser Tribune suggesting a suspect may be in custody for the Mihaljevic case. I am urging caution, because of the lack of corroboration from other news outlets and the generic nature of the suspect sketch. Kathy Halle disappeared on March 29, 1979, while on her way to pick up her sister from the Northgate Shopping Center. After an extensive search, her body was discovered in the Fox River weeks later. The investigation into her murder was initially conducted as a missing person case but eventually turned into a homicide investigation. Despite the efforts of law enforcement, the case went cold, and no new evidence emerged for many years. The investigation employed advanced DNA technology, specifically the MVAC (Multi-Vacuum DNA Collection System), designed to extract DNA from older evidence that may be degraded. This technique involves spraying a sterile solution onto evidence and then vacuuming it back up, allowing for a more thorough collection of DNA than traditional swabbing methods. In June 2023, detectives delivered evidence from Halle's case to DNA Labs International in Florida, where testing revealed that the DNA found on her clothing was 9.4 trillion times more likely to have originated from Bruce Lindahl. This conclusive evidence linked him to her murder, providing the closure that had eluded her family for decades.

In this episode, we explore the long-standing investigation into the abduction and murder of Amy Mihaljevic, a case that has haunted the community for 35 years. Hosts Bill Huffman and guest Nic from the True Crime Garage podcast discuss the emotional weight of the case, particularly its impact on Amy's family, especially her father, Mark Mihaljevic, who continues to seek closure. A significant focus of the episode is the recent developments in DNA evidence that have emerged in the investigation. The hosts reveal that law enforcement has identified a stain believed to contain suspect DNA, which could be pivotal in solving the case. This new evidence is seen as a promising lead, especially compared to previous evidence that had been less conclusive. The hosts express cautious optimism, noting that while analyzing DNA can be lengthy and complex, the potential for a breakthrough is encouraging. Bill and Nic emphasize the importance of this DNA evidence, contrasting it with earlier findings, such as a few hairs that were insufficient for definitive identification. The current DNA evidence is described as more significant, as it is male DNA that could potentially lead to identifying the perpetrator. The hosts discuss the financial investment made by the Bay Village Police Department and the FBI, which has reportedly exceeded $100,000 on DNA testing, underscoring the seriousness of the investigation.

With the update on the Amy Mihaljevic case this week, I thought I'd look for a cold case from her era that has been solved. I landed on the case of the cold case of Mary Davis, a mystery that lingered for decades and has finally been solved. In a remarkable display of the enduring power of forensic science, advancements in DNA technology have led to the identification of Russell Grant Wood as the perpetrator in the tragic demise of Mary Davis. The evidence, submitted to the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation in 2022, brought closure to a case that had remained unresolved since 1987. Unfortunately, Wood passed away in 2013, but this breakthrough is a testament to the relentless pursuit of justice and the importance of technological progress in solving crimes.

The FBI provided investigative assistance to Illinois police. In 1980, Gacy was convicted of murdering 33 young men ranging in age from 14 to 21. In 1978, after one of Gacy's victims, Robert Piest, was reported missing, police learned that Gacy was the last person known to have seen him. After obtaining a search warrant, police discovered the bodies of 29 boys and young men in or near Gacy's house; four other bodies were found in the nearby Des Plaines River. Indeed, the area of the house had emitted a foul stench for years, but Gacy had told his houseguests and his wife that the smell was the result of moisture buildup. At his trial Gacy's plea of innocent by reason of insanity was supported by the testimony of several psychologists, who diagnosed him as schizophrenic, but was rejected by the jury, which found him guilty of all 33 murders of which he was accused; he was executed by lethal injection in 1994. - Britannica Follow Nic on Twitter @TCGNic Find all their shows and merchandise on their website True Crime Garage SOURCES: https://www.newspapers.com/clip/97809682/ https://www.newspapers.com/clip/97811240/ https://apnews.com/article/chicago-2a5842ef8ee46f8d43799bc50f390ad8 https://www.britannica.com/biography/John-Wayne-Gacy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5s7WMxSplg https://www.biography.com/news/john-wayne-gacy-timeline-murders https://vault.fbi.gov/John%20Wayne%20Gacy John Wayne Gacy timeline: The efforts to recover, name his 33 ...https://www.chicagotribune.com › history › ct-john-wa… John Wayne Gacy, the country's worst serial killer - Chicago ...https://www.chicagotribune.com › nation-world › chi-c… John Wayne Gacy - Chicago Tribunehttps://www.chicagotribune.com › topic › john-wayne-… Learn more about your ad choices.
