Creepy Unsolved Mysteries - From unsolved murders to unidentified people to unexplained supernatural events, what are some of the creepiest unsolved mysteries you've ever heard of?

Yep, and I looked into it a bit after this started hitting the news and honestly it satisfies me as the explanation. The sketches of him look exactly like pictures of McCoy, and McCoy had precisely the skills DB Cooper would need to pull of this kind off heist. It helps the theory in my opinion that McCoy died in a shootout with the feds a few years after the Cooper job. He was the kind of guy who was addicted to pulling cool heists off. Seems to all track.
 
I'm pretty sure exactly this happened. It's not the most interesting theory but it certainly explains everything neatly. It also explains that found money ($5,800) next to the river. Maybe he literally just dropped into the river, hit hard, and either died on the spot or drowned.

That is the most sensible explanation, but sometimes you gotta think outside the box.

I will say this. If they're not from a copycat, then we almost certainly know the Ripper's true identity: Charles Allen Lechmere.
It's suspicious that Charles Lechmere gave a false name.
Lechmere is the latest fad Ripper culprit and all the "evidence" is working backwards from the conclusion he's the killer.
"The crime happened along his routes!!!", nigger he's a guy that lived and worked in the East End, of course you can bullshit together any number of potential paths between his residence and workplace that brush where the bodies were found. The whole take is insidious as hell.

Then there's meme falsehoods about there being bodyparts under his or his mother's house after it was demolished or sth. The most "suspicious" thing he did was give his stepfather's surname (Cross) at his official testimony, but he could've just as well done that for completely benign reasons:
- His stepfather was a policeman so he just used his name for clout in an official police investigation.
- Or there was some stupid clerical happenstance where he was registered as Cross in some places and the use of that name was more appropriate.
- Or he didn't want his real name in the papers associated with (dead) prostitutes, in case his wife flips out thinking he was whoring.
- Or he was nervous and said the wrong name while giving testimony.
There's any number of explanations why he could've done that. He still gave his proper address to the police and showed up to the hearing, completely defeating the point of giving a false identity.

Yes, he was married btw. And at the time he found the body he already had 8 children with his wife. Textbook profile of a whore slaying brainrotted madman. Smooth as silk, being able to murder bitches in the dead of night, then come home covered in blood and guts without the 9 people living in his household noticing. Him being treated as a legitimate suspect is retarded.
 
William L. Toomey.

In 1982, a man sat down in a church in Idaho and committed suicide via poison. On him, he had an envelope with $1900 and a letter asking that the money be used to be cremate him. Aside from that, there basically no information on the man, and it's not even certain that his real name is William Toomey. There's some talk of him being connected to some murdered priests, but aside from that there's almost nothing.

I'm honestly surprised that this case doesn't get more attention.
 
Wait, can we please talk about Hannah Kobayashi? She went missing and her dad flew out and searched for almost exactly 2 weeks before committing suicide at an LA airport (in the parking lot.) She's still missing and new info is slowly seeping into the newscycle.

We're not even sure yet if she's dead, and the dad gives up (and literally seppukus) after 2 weeks? That really tickles my fuckery radar. What's going on?

Redditards are increasingly coming to the conclusion that she was a naive girl who was big into new age neohippie type shit, like tarot card readings, and fell into the wrong hands while wandering around LA.

So what's the over-under on her being dead vs sold into slavery, do they figure?
Edit: Or relatively "happily" complicit in some cult now?

Like all troo crime fans, they always assume someone was trafficked but they are finding out that the Hannah that actually is/was is different than what their family thought she was, which is pretty typical and might explain why her dad committed seppuku. Apparently her dad scoured the seedier parts of LA to try to find her. What he found out may have driven him to kill himself because of the loss of face.


I get the family probably wanted better optics for their search but come on, saying she’s “not the type to” or this “is not like her at all” meanwhile her ig, coworkers, friends etc clearly paint the picture we’re all seeing now. No judgement either , she’s an entire adult who’s allowed to do as she wishes. Just pushes me to wonder why the heck honesty wasn’t considered earlier on?! To actually help to find the missing person?
It’s so strange because my family are the last people that would know what I actually enjoy doing, who all my friends are, my hobbies etc. I know it differs from person to person but every time they talk about her character I can’t help but think that they don’t actually know what she’s like
I have to agree with you. The only thing I think they truly know about her is how often she checks in with them and how she talks to them. I think they are allowed to say “this isn’t like her” if that pattern changes, but that doesn’t mean that they would actually know the reasons why.

My favorite D.B. Cooper theory is the one featured in the movie Without a Paddle. That theory being that he got severely injured when he landed, and then unable to make it back to civilization, just died in the woods.

He was very poorly prepared for the terrain and harsh november weather in NW pacific area, wearing only a raincoat over his business suit. 10 thousand feet jump in strong winds straight into the forest, even with experience will easily lead to death.

I wonder if he had some kind of early locating device or something in his suitcase, with people on the ground waiting for him and in 1971 average joe could have easily thought machine like that was a bomb.

My favorite theory is that he fought to death with bigfoot after landing lol.

Anyone following the uptick in UFO stuff recently? Any theories? Am I in the wrong thread to ask this?
Wrong thread for general discussion about it but there are lots of UFO mysteries that maybe could fit in here, like the "Lead Masks case" for an example where two brazilian UFO hunters were found dead in mysterious circumstances.

Plot twist! The family are now claiming it’s been confirmed that Hannah was seen at a Greyhound station in Union Station on 11/12. Idk if they just got this info, seems likely bc why else would they send her Dad out there? But it could be a further loss-of-face-covering.

Is there a Reddit 'mega' on this? I can only find later threads with no 'timeline' overview. First time I'm hearing of this new age hokey halfbreed.

I call bullshit. No way. What did he do, run full-speed headfirst into a pillar in the LAX parking garage?

Dude isn't a japanese native so "loss of face" doesn't apply here.

He jumped to his death.


Police confirmed that Kobayashi died after he jumped off from a parking structure near LAX sometime around 4 a.m. on Sunday.

I am not really well versed into the whole incident, but given how retarded mysterious D. B. Cooper was and how he obviously did some planning is it possible he had a accomplice on the ground ready to extract him once he landed? It sounds like a bit of a long shot but it's possible no? He jumps with no real equipament or special hardware to survive the night which adds to the whole insanity of his heist but if he knows where he will be jumping exactly he could aim for a specific area of a square mile or two where he has someone ready to get him with some coffee and a car.

Its possible but unlikely since he really didn't have any accurate location, area of search would have been ridiculous. He chose a military parachute that had no possibility of steering and it was windy as fuck that night. I get massive kamikaze vibes based on everything we know. One thing i dont see talked about is that he might have had atleast long johns under his suit but is that really enough all things considered? Probably not. :D

Plot twist: his accomplice snaked on him and stole the money himself.
