In the age of the internet and with the rise of online influencers, it’s all too easy for us to assume that what somebody is showing us is true. We are often led so deeply into the lives of our favourite online creators that we feel we know them, and we trust that they are who they say they are. It’s understandable, but this window into someone’s life is often manipulated, and not everybody is truthful. In fact, sometimes they harbour terrifying secrets, as we’ll soon discover in today’s episode of Cold Cases Detective, investigating 3 Disturbing Cases of Crimes That Started Online.

There are hundreds of cases from the early 2000s still awaiting justice, and in today’s video, we’ll be exploring two twisted unsolved cases from 2008.

When you think of serial killers, there are a few names that immediately come to mind: Ted Bundy, the Zodiac Killer and John Wayne Gacy, to name a few.

The neon lights of Tokyo; fun Nintendo games; intricate kimonos and the breathtaking sight of Mt Fuji; these are just some of the amazing things that we associate with Japan.

Given the lack of modern technology, standards and protocols that we use today, you’d be forgiven for thinking that it must have been easy in the Victorian era to get away with the most unforgivable crimes. Although there are many mysteries from this time period, including the identity of the infamous Jack the Ripper, there are many terrifying criminals who slipped up and ultimately got caught. In today’s episode of Cold-Case Detective, we’ll be exploring two chilling cases of Victorian serial killers.

Lavelle R. Felton, nicknamed “Velle” and “Romie” (pronunciation unknown) by both family and future teammates, was a driven and athletically gifted young man from Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

As a species, human beings strive to do great things. We wish to see our name in lights; to have our talents recognised and to live out our dreams. At the very least, all humans deserve a degree of recognition, even if it’s just from our friends and family.

But luckily, advances in technology have helped us shed some light on those who have passed away without a name, bringing some closure to their stories. In today’s episode of Cold Case Detective, we’ll be exploring four cases of Jane and John Does who were recently identified.
