  • The evening started as a birthday celebration for the retired mother and wife, but would soon become a horror story, and the married couples lives would be forever changed. Bodycam footage and a 999 call...

  • Thad carried both boxes back to his bed at Fort Worth, and sat down to open them. He chose to open the seemingly less exciting cardboard box first. As he did so, it exploded.

  • The ranger thought that Bob seemed abnormally calm in reporting the death. The fact he’d waited in line, and then in explaining what had happened, he’d shown almost no emotion.

    Bob told the ranger that he and his wife had stopped to take a photo and as he was setting up the tripod, he heard a little sound, turned back around, and saw that Donna was gone.

    Donna had stumbled backwards and fallen to her death. He said he then rushed down another route to try and help, but as soon as he got there, he knew she was dead.

  • A 2am wake up call to a group of men standing over the bed. One saying ‘This is a robbery’. And then a kidnapping that lasted almost 48 hours, with ransom demands and a number of types of assault.

    Thankfully, the kidnapping victim Denise Huskins was found safe, dropped off by the kidnapper, outside her family home hundreds of miles away.

    The Vallejo police department’s press release on March the 25th 2015 was that "Today there is no evidence to support the claims that this was a stranger abduction, or an abduction at all. Given the facts that have been presented thus far, this appears to be an orchestrated event and not a kidnapping."

    Just before letting Quyen inside the gate, Stephen had gestured to his friend William McFall to stay out of sight. It’s clear even by this point, that Quyen had no idea there would be another person inside the house she was about to enter.

    "It was a very thickly- wooded, dense area. Spiderwebs, 2:00 a.m., very dark. I had two of my investigators with me. We searched so long that our flashlight battery started wearing out. And we came across her pretty deep into the woods."

    The pizza-hut delivery driver made his way down the quiet, abandoned road- he quickly realised he’d gone the wrong way, so swung into a grassy area to turn the car around. As he did so, he noticed an object outside of the car. He stopped and got out
 as he made his way towards the object laying in the overgrown grassy area. He stared in horror as he realised he was looking at the burnt, ashy body of a human being. He got straight back into his car to call 911 and waited for the authorities to arrive. Detectives found a rolled up carpet next to the body and a used coffee creamer container. More rubbish nearby but the container stood out because it looked pretty new, so it took their attention. Tyre tracks nearby, well preserved because of the nature of the dirt.

  • On Thursday the 9th of May, Dumfries police recieved a report from someone walking their dog along the bank of the River Leven. They had thought they'd seen something in the water, and as they made their way closer towards the item, they realised it was a torso.

The joint suicide pact between a broken hearted husband, and a depressed, devestated wife, would be revealed to be an unbelievable series of events, that started with an affair, and ended with a double murder.
