I love these threads...they're like a quiz game to see what I can remember! :)


Dr. Craig: Dr. Emily Craig, forensic anthropologist from KY.

Nancy Daddysman: http://www.unsolved.com/ajaxfiles/mur_nancy_daddysman.htm


Lisette Lucita- I think that's actually Lisette Nikita (sp?). That's the nurse that poisoned her patients. She fled and later wrote to her family that she was working as a cook and a nurse elsewhere.


Dream of ghosts/music box- This is probably the ghost episode about the house that belonged to John Harden, the man who was gunned down in his front yard while trying to extinguish a fire in his truck. There is a scene where all the music boxes in a room start playing for no reason.



Man...I thought I would do better than that. :lol:

Friends vanish in Jeep
Casino Intrigue

Hmm these are pretty puzzling. I'm wondering if these are some newer ones as many I don't remember. They sound very interesting though.

I wonder if the Carl Dentai could be "Carl Denny". I believe him and his wife Mary were involved in insurance fraud involving a boat.

Casino intrigue could be about that woman who worked at an Indian casino and was pregnant. She was having troubles with a certain employee and not long after she was shot and killed in her home. Jodie Bordeaux was her name I believe.

Friends vanish in jeep is Bill Rundle and Tracy Kenley.

Colleen Fragine sounds similar to the woman who was pulled from the wreckage by two unknown good samaritans and was looking for them. I think her name was spelled Frangione or something similar.

Christopher Abeyta is an infant who was abducted from his home long ago. They showed his picture and very quickly mentioned his case at the end of a missing person segment I believe I have from Lifetime. I wonder if they did a more extended version of his case on UM.

Garry Gibson is a special alert about a man shot I believe in a parking lot if I remember correctly.

Sherry Nickerson is the daughter of Donna Brown I believe. Donna's the one who helped her inmate husband escape.

I haven't done any research but off the top of my head I can tell you that Carl Dentai was the man who was looking for a soldier named Phillip Pelletier (sp?) who helped his family enjoy Christmas during WWII. I believe Dentai's family was hiding from the Nazis and lived in an abandoned railroad car at the time Pelletier befriended them. The segment aired during the first season.

Carlena White and Christopher Abeta were abducted infants profiled briefly after the Marlene Santana story.

Stephanie Volk was one of the adopted children from the "orphan trains" segment.

Could "Charles Holman" be Charles Holden?

Linda Tellington Jones is that lady who did the "T-Touch" on animals. Some kind of massage. I remember one scene where she was working on a zoo tiger.

Duane Miller is in a Lost Loves segment. He was a worker at the Federal Building in Oklahoma City that was bombed. He's searching for the two men who risked their lives to save him.

Kay Fletcher was a Spontaneous Human Combustion victim who survived, claiming she felt a warmth on her back that included smoke and the smell of burning flesh.

Kendall Mott found his father George Mott dead of supposed spontaneous human combustion. IIRC, this was the old man (former fireman?) found in a burned up bed, with an oxygen tank and a pack of cigarettes at the scene. Could definitely be thinking of someone else though.

Carlina White was an infant abducted from the hospital while there to treat a fever:

I think Stephanie Wolk may have been on a Lost Loves segment, I found info here stating that the family was featured on UM. http://genforum.genealogy.com/austria/messages/9435.html

Couple Shot At The Hotel.

Jeremy Rolfs and Heather Uffelman, 1992?

They are the Tennessee couple involved in the sale of a $30,000 apple quadra computer, designed for the music industry. They travelled to meet the "buyer" at a Georgia motel. He pulled out a gun, to make them cooperate. He then made them roll themselves up in bed sheets, then beat them in the head with a hammer.

Heather died from her wounds, but Jeremy survived the attack, only to die in a traffic accident at age 27, while working with the Peace Corps in Africa.

The assailant used the name Tommy Johnson.

Bill Purinton - Lost Loves - He was looking for his sister, Jackie. The children were split up by adoption.

Jeff Fisher - Lost Loves - He was searching for the mentor and father figure he befriended through "Big Brothers of America".

Garry Gibson - Yep, he was shot in the parking lot of a Los Angeles motel. One of the killers has been apprehended. Two others are still at large.

Margie Hamilton - Lost Loves - She had married a man four times her age. After having a baby, her husband gave the child up for adoption without telling her. Now, her daughter is searching for her brother, Ben Austin Baker.

Mike Williams - very common name.

I did find a Mike Williams who is a hunter from FL missing for 9 years now. Since they haven't found him or any indication of why he went missing, I thought perhaps that it's at least a long shot worth checking out.

As Justin mentioned, I wonder if Charles Holman could be Charles Holden.

One night in June 1991, Charles Holden picked up a hitch-hiker on his way home from a fast food restaurant. A few minutes after getting picked up, the stranger attacked Holden, wanting his money as his car, but Holden fought the man off and drive around a bit trying to shake off his experience. When he finally started to return home, he noticed the hitchhiker lurking around his home and drove away again to call the police. The police returnedto the scene of a break-in, with Holden's mother lying dead in an upstairs room. She had been stabbed to death.

Thomas Wright

Could he be the son of Doris Smith? His case was featured on a psychic visions segment. He had a dream that his mother was attacked by a prisoner that she was transporting. It turned out that the dream was accurate.

thanks for the all of the help so far, it is most helpful.

thank you for the verification of the friends vanish in jeep, crystaldawn. I was thinking Bill Rundle and Tracey Kenley, but wasn't sure.

I think you may be right justin about Charles Holman/Holden. I was thinking the same thing, but wasn't sure if there was a Charles Holman as well.

TracyLynnS: to answer your question, yes UM did a segment on the Atlanta Olympic bombings. that must be what the Alice Hawthorne segment is, thanks. also, I'm not sure couple shot in hotel is Heather Ruffleman. They were in a motel, also, while a gun was produced in that incident, they weren't actually shot. but you could be right.

gosh, given how many times Lifetime aired the Linda Tellington-Jones segment, I'm shocked it didn't find its way on to the box sets. I can't tell you how many times I would tune in to see what stories were going to air that day, and she would be there massaging the whales.

I developed a hunch that Bill O'Neill was a lost love segment that I had, so I checked, and I was right, so that takes care of that one.

-Jody Baker is actually Jody Bordeaux
-couple shot at hotel was actually just one person: Gary Gibson

-Brent Truath is the John Maggio segment (man Maggio attempted to kill and steal a car from)
-Fred Dixon is actually Red Dixon (Liebling sement)

They are showing the Carl Dentai segment again today. I'm almost positive that they just aired this same segment during the last several days.

I'm not liking the "musical timeslots" thing that lifetime is doing with UM. Since picking up the show, they had a M,T,W, F schedule, skipping thursdays. Now they're sometimes showing one episode per day and sometimes two, with thursdays being included again.

And now they're already repeating segments within days of each other. I'm afraid LMN is showing signs of starting up their Cokeville School Bombing, Gilbert Ortiz, Fertility Statues, style repeats frenzy.

May Carter I believe is Mary Carter, who was searching for her sister Martha Hinkle.

Martin Hernandez and Martin Gauz (Ganz) were both in the Cogni-tech segment. Both had been murdered in front of or near cameras, and cogni-tech enhanced the videos in order to help find clues. Although Ganz's killer was found, I don't think Hernandez's killer was.

Bill O'Neil was searching for his father, Jim Burke.

Patty Lemmer was searching for her two daughter, Debra and Diana, kidnapped and adopted in the 1960s.

The other cases, elizabeth blackwell, susan flaherty, mike williams, charlie mcdonald, john straus, jody baker, bill thompson, brent truath, fred dixon, brigette, Jimmy Washer, and June O'shea were all found by Wiseguy, so this is all that's left:

Georgia Green
Marjorie Gibson
