The title of the thread is self-explanatory. I've seen this question posted on other forums and just wondered what your thoughts were. A popular answer, of course, is Jack the Ripper but I was wondering what other unsolved crimes intrigue us?

JonBenet Ramsey... enough said.
The Black Dahlia and the Zodiac cases come immediately to mind for me.
the black dahlia
Well, since OJ was declared innocent *choke puke gag* I'd like to know who killed Nicole and Ron Goldman.
The Cabin Murders ( there is a thread on it somewhere)
I'll think of more I'm sure
One that's fascinated me since I was a child - D.B. Cooper.
The Girl Scout Murders
Johnny Gosch
Jacob Wetterling
Jodi Huisentruit
And some local cold cases from here that I have researched.
Jon Benet for sure
Jon Benet
Paige Renkoski (local from where I grew up)
Oakland County Child Killer
DB Cooper
Johnny Grosch
Jodi Husientruit
Jacob Wetterling
I'm echoing Lisa L on some, and I'm sure both of us have read volumes on those cases and still think WTH????
Nicole Brown/ Ronald Goldman

JFK ( I still think there was more than one shooter involved!)
Marilyn.
Emmett Till
Jon Benet
I would like to know exactly what Scott did to Lacy and Connor Peterson
I find those two fascinating as well. Also, who kidnapped the Beaumont children and who was Sharon Marshall?
The Black Dahlia
Jonbenet Ramsey
Thelma Todd (i don't believe it was carbon monoxide poisoning)
Ohhhh Sharon Marshall! Good one, Ivy!
I read the book about five times and it still give me heebies.
Just, well, BAT SHIT crazy stuff.
Exactly.
Read about Paige Renkoski, too. Not a whole lot on the web about her, I've written about her, but a total mystery. Vanished into thin air.
Oakland County Child Killer is another WTF case. Avoid anything Helen whatshername, Dagner? says, she's a total crackpot.
There are limitless cases I'd love to KNOW the true answers to, among them are:
J.F.K.
Marilyn Monroe
Adam Walsh
Nicole Brown & Ron Goldman
The Black Dahlia
Jon Benet Ramsey
9/11....yeah, I know which terrorists took control of the flights....but I wonder if there is more to know about the darkest day in American history.
and.....my brother, Jim. I have a gut feeling that his death was not a suicide.
As Xena said......I'm sure that more will come to mind as time goes on.
Kristen Smart
Jodi Husientruit (disappeared on my b-day )
Brian Shaffer
Ok, I just want all the missing children/persons cases solved.
But I do wonder about these though:
Zodiac
2 Pac Shakur
Mrs James Dean, re: Pac
Did you ever read about the Rampart Scandal within LAPD and those two police officers that went down?
A lot of people (including police officers) accept the theory that they killed Tupac on the orders of Sug Knight because Pac was going to leave Death Row.
Tutankhamun
I am a sick puppy....woof woof!!!

great thread ivy!
the black dahlia, too exciting!
jfk's assasination
what really happened in jfk'jrs' plane
for now....
pull the string!
The Kevin Collins kidnapping. How a 10 year old sitting at a bus stop at oak and Masonic Streets in San Franciscos Haight-Ashbury can vanish without a trace is beyond me. That was 1984. To this day theyve never found him

Zodiac, Zodiac, Zodiac.
As awful as this feeling is, at least we know he is dead & will not be wandering back into our lives. That sounds rather harsh but compared to all of the folks on this planet whose loved ones have simply disappeared, living with the wondering is not as horrible as living without knowing anything.
What a great thread you started, btw, Ivy! You rock! HagHugs, Dennis
Zodiac
Black Dahlia
Who greenlighted "Gigli"
Black Dahlia
there is a book called "Jack the Ripper case closed" by Patricia Cornwell I think she solved it really I do, she did some deep research and I can't remember the guys name off the top of my head but she determined it was this artist who had mutilated boy parts and couldn't perform sexually hence fueling his rage, paintings he did were similar to crime scenes this was before anyone ever saw any photos...it's a good read but I think she figured it out
I think the painter reffered to by Patricia Cornwell was called Walter Sickert, I read that he was abroad when some the killings happened. They did find dna on a shawl belonging to one of the victims but it was too degraded to be usful and a lot of the case files were destroyed in a bomb left by terrorists in the early 1900's
