  • We think of 1940s America as a simpler time, but even then there were grisly murders, disappearances, and mob hits, some of which have become legendary in the annals of crime. And a number of them remain unsolved to this day.

    Do you think any of these will ever be solved?

      I doubt it. They all happened so long ago. Everyone connected with these cases, including the suspects, are most likely dead, and all the evidence has either been destroyed or lost. It would take a miracle of some kind to solve even one of those crimes.

    Bugsy Siegel wasn't shot with a pistol at close range from behind like this video shows. He was shot by a rifle from afar through a window in his living room...

      I was there. He wasn't even shot as soon as dude pulled out his piece Bugs had a massive heart attack and passed. The holes in him were from us trying to reach inside and keep pumping his heart as this was before CPR was widely known

    The Black Dahlia is the first case I’ve ever seen.
    The black and white photos of her body always makes me shiver. Quite haunting indeed.
    Unfortunately I haven’t been able to humanize her for lack of better terms.
    She’s always been a legend as she was murdered long before I was born.

    These are infamous cases, but the truth was probably buried along with the suspects and associates.

    From the infamous Black Dahlia case to the mysterious disappearance of Virginia Carpenter, each story is a haunting reminder of the darkness that lurked beneath the surface of 1940s America. Despite decades of investigation and speculation, many of these cases remain shrouded in mystery, leaving unanswered questions and unresolved endings that continue to captivate true crime enthusiasts and historians alike.

    For some reason, I've always pictured the Texarkana killing field killer and the zodiac killer as the same exact person....if you think about it, the Texarkana ones happened in the late 1940s and the zodiac killer went publicly active in late 60s... it's not too far of a leap to see the similarities between the 2.... like the costume or mask as it were in the first series looking like a mockup or prototype if you will, of what the zodiac killer ended up being reported as seen in.....they also had a thing about taking out canoodling couples at popular makeout spots where ppl would be most vulnerable and easily caught off guard.... just saying is all.... doesn't mean I'm correct in any way. ❤😂

      How do you explain the fact that the Zodiac Killer's last victim was not, as you put it, a "canoodling couple," but a lone taxi driver?

    You should start making videos where you're sitting in that chair wearing a velvet robe and an old pipe. Get a storyteller vibe going.
