Four well loved, beautiful young people had their lives not only taken from them but they were scrutinzed, turned upside down, investigated and doubted only to find out that a demented murderer decided to enact his own twisted desires.

When a upper middle class family of four in the Setagaya District of Japan are slaughtered in their home everyone wonders what could be the motive? The family are well loved and having no known enemies could this be a random robbery gone bad? Except money was left, the killer stayed for hours after killing father Mikio, mother Yaskuo, daughter Ninna and son Rei, ate food from their kitchen, used their bathroom leaving excrement in the toilet, left a duffel bag with evidence which leads back to a military base in California, used the families knives to kill them and even left a body imprint on the couch and carpeting where he took a nap. There are more odd details and you can hear the Miyazawa family's story here. If YOU happened to be living in Japan in the early 2000's or know anything about these horrific murders there is a $200,000 (US dollars) reward for information on the case.

When a responsible, caring, much loved mother, sister, daughter, friend does not show up after a "camping" trip with a co-worker to pick up her only beloved daughter Patti's sister knows something is very, very wrong. Patricia Adkins was a motivated, ambitious single mother who had a supportive family to help out with child care occasionally and a house full of pets she treated better than most people treat their human family. She rose through the ranks at Honda of America in Central Ohio to become a shift supervisor and treated everyone like a mother hen. Patti didn't have much time for romance, raising her daughter, working hard, etc. When she found an emotional connection with a co-worker that became something more she had no idea it would change or end her life. While Patti is still considered a "missing" person its pretty clear what happened. Hear her story here.
