    Who put Bella in the wych elm? In 1943 some boys found a skeleton inside of a Harlow tree. The woman has never been identified and the case is still unsolved. Later, graffiti started showing up around town saying “who put Bella in the wych elm?” Was the unidentified woman named Bella? Is it a reference to Bella Donna the drug? What are your theories?

    Send me a text message! I do read them all! Include your phone number if you would like to correspond.

    Hey guys!
    So this week Loki inspired me to do the mysterious case of DB Cooper. Cooper hijacked a plane in 1971 and stole $200,000 then jumped out of the plane. There was no evidence found except 3 or packets of money and one packet was missing 10 bills. What happened???? Will we ever find the money? Where did it go? Did Cooper even survive the jump? This case is so fascinating, take a look at the evidence the FBI has on it here:
