Is there some unknown force majeure out there in the desert that compelled them? Makes you wonder.
The Bedtime Stories vid is a good overview, but this video is better for real photos, timeline and specific map locations involved in this mystery:

Read Tom Mahoods' blog, Other Hand. He's one of the two men who found the remains. Excellent reading.

You can find a few clips on YouTube showing only a SFW part of a porno, I have no idea if this is a one time thing or not but this was the clip circulating.
I must warn you, it is pretty fucking cringe.

While I was generally aware of this case, there's two things that I didn't know.
- I didn't know that Bill Bradfield was a serial philanderer and con artist.
- I didn't know that Jay C. Smith was a mentally ill dogfucking enthusiast, robber, druggie, swinging sex pervert, and welfare fraud perpetrator.

The Connecticut River Valley Killer.
From 1978 to 1987, six women and a 17-year-old girl were murdered in the Connecticut River Valley. They had been stabbed to death.
What makes this case particularly disturbing is how it ends. In 1988, a pregnant woman was stabbed by a man who is strongly believed to have been the killer. She got to her car and saw that he was following her. Fortunately, she reached a friend’s house. She and her unborn baby survived. The killings abruptly stopped after the attempted murder. (The depiction of this in Unsolved Mysteries is genuinely frightening.)
The cherry on top, though? The survivor would later identify her attacker as Michael Nicholaou, an absolutely unhinged veteran who served in the Vietnam War, during which he apparently participated in several war crimes. He is the prime suspect in the disappearance of his second wife, who vanished not too long after the pregnant woman was attacked.
In 2005, Nicholaou killed his third wife and his stepdaughter in a murder-suicide. His DNA, as far as I’m aware, has never been tested.

Not so much a creepy unsolved mystery, but rather a tragic missing person's one that was finally solved. The remains of Tonette Jackson were finally identified almost two decades after she died. (archive)
She was the wife of Hardy Jackson, the man who went viral for this heartbreaking interview filmed during the aftermath of hurricane Katrina. According to him, he tried to hang onto her while getting both of them to safety as their house literally ripped apart, and collapsed all around them.
Hardy recounted his wife's selfless final words before she was swept away: "You can’t hold me. You take care of the kids and the grandkids,"
Tonette's remains were found stuck between the slabs of two homes just one week after the storm, but weren't identified until this year. While Hardy himself passed away back in 2013 without the closure of his wife ever being found, his children, and grandchildren along with the rest of his family have expressed great relief, and gratitude at such a thing finally happening.
"Now knowing they went over and beyond, that says a lot. And that will help me with closing this chapter, and be able to move on." One of Tonette's daughters said after recieving her mother's ashes.
And I really hope it does because that family truly does deserve it after everything they've been through.
Rest in peace, Tonette, and Hardy. If only all children could have parents as courageous, and wonderful as you both were.
*Sorry about the terrible quality image I had to use. This was the only one I could find of them together.

Probably the perfect length, most descriptive and well-researched video essay about the origin of the "bottomless hole taken by the government" urban legend, because it was an Art Bell Coast To Coast AM caller and here's an analysis of all of the call-ins that covered it. I didn't know about the.follow-up hole or surrounding plants/artifacts though.

I daresay that many of you are familiar with this missing lad already, but I only came across it in the past few weeks:
About six months ago, a fifteen year old autistic boy named Sebastian Rogers disappeared from his home in Hendersonville, Tennessee (just as an aside, can someone please explain to me why Americans think that they can give anyone else in the world shit over place names? "Let's call it Hendersonville, Tennessee! God bless America!") in highly dubious circumstances. I've been following the Lore Lodge's series on him in the past few weeks. It's extremely in depth and intensively researched, but I must say that I doubt that their belief that they've turned up information that the coppers haven't:
(I've downloaded the third episode, but I'm having difficulty convincing my shitty laptop to cut it into pieces small enough to upload to kf. Watch this space.)
Anyway, the mother of Sebastian Rogers has filed a protective order against another ytber, "Bullhorn Betty" (again, American names, weird shit)

Young Sebastian is greatly missed, and six months later, a lot of attention is focused on his mother and stepfather. He is medically and physically fragile, and his behavioural issues suggest that a kidnapper would have to know him very well in order to spirit him away. Anyone more familiar with the case care to offer insight? I've yet to watch the Bullhorn Betty videos, her accent is nails down a chalkboard, a summary would be appreciated.

‘She is dangerous’: Mother of missing Tennessee teen files order of protection against YouTuber

SUMNER COUNTY, Tenn. (WKRN) — The mother of missing Tennessee teenager Sebastian Rogers said she’s being stalked by a YouTuber who’s covering the case. That YouTuber, however, claims she is innocent.
Rogers, 15, disappeared five months ago from his family’s home in Hendersonville, located about 15 miles northeast of Nashville. Dozens have and continue to search for the boy, though some efforts have been scaled back.
While Rogers’ father, Seth Rogers, recently spoke about searching for his son with Nexstar’s WKRN, Sebastian’s mother, Katie Proudfoot, and stepfather, Chris Proudfoot, have largely remained out of the media, even as interest in the case has spread.
Despite maintaining their privacy, Katie now says she is being stalked and harassed. She recently requested a temporary order of protection against a YouTuber by the name of “Bullhorn Betty.”
A description of the account, which has more than 34,000 subscribers, says “Bullhorn Betty” is a “victim rights activist” who covers certain cases to “help in the search of those missing and/or presumed dead.”
The petition for an order of protection was filed last week in Sumner County with the sheriff’s office. According to that document, Katie claimed that Andra Griffin, the woman behind the “Bullhorn Betty” account, is inciting the public and her social media followers to aid in her stalking the Proudfoot family.
Katie is quoted saying, in part, “She threatens us and posts ‘live’ while driving by our home.”
She also called the YouTuber “dangerous,” adding that Griffin had accused the family of harming Sebastian.
“She is dangerous and is threatening my and my family’s safety and telling her followers to help and do the same,” one statement from Katie read.
Griffin told WKRN she had not received the temporary protection order but said she was innocent of these accusations.
“If it is from her, then that is absolutely a falsehood. They can go and look at all my ‘lives,'” Griffin said. “My ‘lives’ never come down off my channel. Driving on public property, on public roads, with a camera hanging out, there’s nothing unlawful about that. That happened over a month ago; it’s only the time I’ve been in the Hendersonville area.”
As of Sunday, there is still a video on the Bullhorn Betty page from a June livestream in which Griffin appears to be outside the Proudfoot home. There is another video, posted on August 1, in which Griffin says she is near a campground Chris Proudfoot was “allegedly” at, adding that she had “been here through the week” and that “he hasn’t been coming to his camper.” Griffin goes on to say she was going by their house later that day.
“It appears for her to get an ex parte order from everything I am reading, she would have to say I am an imminent threat to her life and I am in Florida,” Griffin continued. “I have never laid eyes on this woman in the flesh. I have never reached out to her by phone, email, or text messages; I have never even responded to any of her Facebook posts. I haven’t talked to this lady.”
There are other videos in which Griffin appears to accuse the Proudfoots of not wanting Sebastian found.
Griffin said she believes these accusations are just a distraction. “I don’t like the drama on the channel, and the more I resist it and keep it focused on Sebastian, the more these distractions keep coming up.”
She went on to say, “it’s all about Sebastian Rogers” and “and how we can bring him home,” and not about his parents.
A court hearing is set for Aug. 8 at the Sumner County Courthouse. Bullhorn Betty’s YouTube videos will be summarized for the DA’s office. Until then, the document said Griffin could not come within 100 feet of Katie or her home.
WKRN reached out to Katie Proudfoot for comment but did not receive a response.
Also coming up this month is a prayer vigil for Sebastian on Aug. 24 in Clarksville at 5 p.m. On Aug. 26, the sixth-month mark since Sebastian’s disappearance, Seth Rogers and other community members will gather in Sumner County to bring awareness to Sebastian and some of the unanswered questions.

If the kid went in the retaining pond, but no footprints came out, and they didn't find anything in the pond, where did he go?

Into a back of a van, then raped until he wished he was dead, then dead would be my guess.

Not at all. Sebastian disappeared from his house in the middle of the night. He left his shoes behind, even though he had sensory problems with his bare feet. He was also intellectually impaired, where Johnny was independent enough to have a job at age twelve.

Is this the autistic boy with a history of playing "hide and seek"? There was an article months ago about his last internet searches being about how to disappear and stuff like that but not sure it's the same case.

I believe that you're thinking of Ryan Larsen. He disappeared in 2021, in the state of Nebraska, aged eleven. Still hasn't been found.
