UNSOLVED MYSTERY MURDERS

Added on: 2nd Jun 2016

 

ROBERT HAMRICK

A gang of thugs was terrorizing the small town of Rock Creek,

Ohio, in the late 1960’s. Newly hired Chief of Police Robert Hamrick

vowed to put an end to the gang, arresting several members

while his family received death threats. While pursuing a

fleeing vehicle, communication between Robert and the

radio dispatcher ended when the line went dead. His car was

found four hours later stuck in a tree, with most of his skull

crushed and the car windows intact, leading some to believe

he was beaten after the crash. Though a witness reported

hearing gang member’s brag about murdering the officer,

no one was ever connected or arrested.

 

 

PHILIP FRASIER

Hitchhiker-Luxemburg-1977

Philip Frasier, aged 25, was on his way from Anchorage to

Washington state in the summer of 1988. On the way, he picked

up a hitchhiker at a service station en route. That night, the

hitchhiker arrived at the house of Eddie and Pauline Olson

in British Columbia, Canada. He said “his” car was having trouble

and they offered to let him stay the night. The next morning,

the hitchhiker introduced himself as Philip Frasier and tried

to sell the car to Eddie so he could buy a plane ticket.

Eddie refused, the hitchhiker drove off, and the car was

found burnt out over 300 miles away. Philip’s body wasn’t

found for six more weeks, dumped off a turnaround on a

country road, and the search for his killer remains.

 

 

RAE ANN MOSSOR

According to her ex-boyfriend, Rae Ann Mossor arrived at his

house one chilly February night and attempted to fix their

crumbling relationship. After she learned the relationship was

unsalvageable, her ex claimed she grabbed a rifle and mortally

shot herself. Three witnesses supported her ex-boyfriend’s claim

that she threatened to take her own life and, with no evidence

of foul play, police ruled her death a suicide. Her parents

disagreed and after much time, had her death changed from

suicide to undetermined. Though they believe her ex-boyfriend

was her killer, the evidence for it doesn’t exist. Some believe

her ex was a police informant and was being protected by law

enforcement, but this is primarily speculation.

 

 

RUTH COOPER, STEPHEN HARKINS,

DIANA ROBERTSON, MIKE RIEMER

Ruth Cooper and younger boyfriend Stephen Harkins went camping

near Tacoma, Washington in the summer of ’85. Four days after

they were last seen, Stephen and his dog’s bodies were found dead

(by bullet wounds) in his sleeping bag. Ruth’s body was found

two months later, decapitated with a tube sock around her neck.

Four months later, Diana Robertson’s body was found deep

in a Washington forest, murdered the same way as Ruth.

Her boyfriend, Mike Riemer, was nowhere to be found though

a note in his blood-stained truck nearby read “I love you, Diana.”

Police believed Mike was the murder for 25 years, until his skull

was found a mile away from where Diana’s body laid.

The case is still unsolved and an unknown serial killer

may still be on the loose.

 

 

TED LOSEFF

An orthopaedic surgeon living near Los Angeles, California,

Ted Loseff was experiencing marital disputes with his two-year

wife, Wilma. On February 23, 1974, Ted was found lifeless in his

car, presumably having suffocated to death in his garage from

the running car. Police immediately suspected his wife Wilma,

even though their prenuptial agreement stated she would not

receive anything in the case of his death. A friend identified

Ted’s handwriting in a supposed suicide note written by Ted

which asked Wilma for compassion but claimed it was

written many months before. An autopsy was finally performed

four years later which showed Ted had been involved in a

struggle and vomited before death (the remnants of which were

found inside). His wife Wilma died almost 10 years after his

death without enough evidence to charge her and

Ted Loseff’s death remains unsolved.

 

 

LETICIA HERNANDEZ

Leticia Hernandez, a seven-year-old girl from Oceanside, California,

was kidnapped while playing in her front yard in December

1989. Afterwards, several people reported seeing Leticia at

different places across the United States with a man and woman

in their late twenties, but she was never seen with them by

authorities. Over a year later, her body was found off a highway

near her hometown, believed to have been killed between

1 to 12 months after her abduction. Her mother died in

1998 without ever finding the true killer.

 

 

KEITH WARREN

hanging tree

Nineteen-year-old Keith Warren was found hanging from a tree

near his Silver Spring, Maryland, home in what was ruled a suicide.

Over five years later, Keith’s mother received an envelope with

photos that helped her force police (who had been uncooperative)

to reopen the case. The photos showed Keith was wearing

clothes which weren’t his and had been initially laid on the ground

before being raised up on the tree (which was so small a suicide

on it was essentially impossible). Keith’s body was exhumed and

deadly chemicals were found in it. Almost 20 years after his death,

the case was reopened by the Montgomery County Police

Department in 2014. They admitted the investigating officer ruled

Keith’s death as a suicide based on hearsay from an unknown

source. Keith’s sister Sherri is actively pursuing the answer

to her brother’s unsolved murder.

 

 

TINA MARCOTTE & TOM KEUTER

The disappearance of Tina Marcotte and death of Tom Keuter are

one of the strangest unsolved murder mysteries out there.

Tina called her friend Vicky for a ride late one night as she was

heading home from work as her car had a flat tire

(which was later found to have been slashed). Tom, a

co-worker and the man Tina told her friend on the phone

would give her a ride, was the prime suspect after Tina

disappeared. He voluntarily went in for police questioning and

gave a story which didn’t entirely fit but wasn’t enough to

arrest him. Three days after Tina’s disappearance, police told

Tom they found blood in his car and, just after the shift change

the following day, Tom was found dead, crushed by the rear

wheel of his forklift. Police believe he loaded the machine with

2,000 pounds (907 kg) of lumber from the yard he worked at,

drove the forklift up an incline, and ran back to lay in its path as

it drifted down. Over two years later, Tina’s body was found under

a wood pile at Tom’s former employer; the cause of death was

blunt force trauma. Neither Tina’s disappearance nor

Tom’s death have ever been truly solved.
