There were two more murders, 15 miles away.

When police arrives, they found the telephones and electricity lines.

We have a weird homicide.

A scene described by one investigator as reminiscent of a weird...

Sometimes a shot in the dark is just what you need for success, even if it seems crazy at the time. On August 4th, 1998,

a woman was found dead inside of her home. Her murder went unsolved for years and might have

The caller said that there was an unresponsive woman inside of the mayor's home,

and when emergency services arrived, they found the mayor's daughter, Heather, begging them to help her mother, Charlotte Ruth Brown,

and pressed a hand to her pulse point, their stomachs dropped in despair. They had to tell Heather that there was nothing that they could do.

Charlotte was cold to the touch and with no pulse.

She had been deceased for quite some time.

At the corners of her mouth were small mounds of foam,

suggesting that she died of an unexpected medical issue.

But when they took an even closer look, investigators noticed that there appeared to be

scratch marks on her body.

And her wrist, it seemed to be broken.
