Jeanette Depalma It was a bright summer day in September of 1972 when, Jeanette Depalma’s body was found. The small town of Springfield, New Jersey was still reeling from the John List murders that occurred just 10 months prior – they weren’t sure how to react with another dead body showing up on their door step. Jeanette was 16 years old and had told her mother she was heading to the train station to go visit a friend. However, when she never made it to the friends house or returned home later in the evening, her parents grew concerned and reported her missing. 4. Angela Sanford52 year old Joel Leyva first met Angela Sanford at a casino in March of 2010. It was here that the then-30-year-old Sanford invited him to the Sandia Foothills Open Space trailhead in Albuquerque, New Mexico to help her celebrate, Beltane, the Wiccan celebration of Spring. Once at the trailhead, Sanford said Joel made some sexual advances which she rejected. He then attacked her and tied her up with her rope belt and threatened her with a dagger. She said she convinced him that she did want to have sex with him, and so he utlimately freed her. Once untied, she then asked him to lie down, took the knife away from him and stabbed him “three times” in the abdomen before running away to seek help. The group of witnesses said Sanford ran to them in her underwear saying she was raped and asking for help. However, none of them had heard of anyone yelling for help prior to her arrival. 3. Adolfo ConstanzoIn the spring of 1989, students looking to celebrate spring break headed to Matamoros in Mexico. An easy drive from Brownsville, Texas, it’s become a favorite for college students looking to enjoy all-night parties, alcohol, drugs and more. But Matamoros, despite being “spring-break friendly” had something else disturbing going on at the time. since New Year’s Day of that year, close to 60 people had been reported missing. One student that likely didn’t know or care of the high crime rate was pre-med student, Mark Kilroy. He crossed into the border town with friends to enjoy the break but was separated from them one night while partying. Close to dawn, when the group headed back, they had lost sight of Kilroy. 2.
