Detective Perspective

On the morning of August 27, 2009, a man walking his dog made a devastating discovery at Caldwell Fields, a campground in the Jefferson National Forest near Blacksburg, Virginia. In a parking area, two Virginia Tech students - 18-year-old Heidi Childs and 19-year-old David Metzler - had been shot and killed. Just 12 hours earlier, the couple had gone to the campground to talk and spend time together. They were expected to return home that night, but they never did. More than 15 years later, the murders of Heidi and David remain unsolved, and detectives are still searching for the person or people responsible. If you have any information in this case, you can contact the Virginia State Police at 540-375-9589. There is a $100,000 reward for information.

In the early morning hours of February 10, 2009, Ron Cummings returned to his home in Satsuma, Florida after work and learned that his five-year-old daughter, HaLeigh, was missing. The side door was propped open with a dirty cinder block he had never seen before, and the babysitter told him she had no idea what happened. A massive search for HaLeigh began, but there was no sign of her anywhere. More than 17 years later, her disappearance remains unsolved, and detectives are still searching for answers about what happened that night. At the time of her disappearance, HaLeigh was five years old. She was between 3' and 3' 3" tall and weighed about 39 lbs, with blonde hair and brown eyes. HaLeigh has several identifying features. She has a four-inch round birthmark on the lower left side of her back, along with two birthmarks on her face - one on her left cheek and another along her right jawline.

On May 16, 2003, a silent alarm was triggered inside Blue Ridge Savings Bank in Greer, South Carolina. When officers arrived just minutes later, they found the bank empty and the cash drawer cleared out. In a small utility room at the back of the building, they made a devastating discovery. Head teller Sylvia Holtzclaw, along with customers Dr. Eb Barnes and his wife Maggie Barnes, had all been shot and killed. Surveillance footage from inside the bank was missing.

On the morning of August 12, 2005, a boater on Lake Huron came across a cabin cruiser drifting alone in the water, struggling against the wind and waves. When the Coast Guard arrived, they found the boat in neutral, with the radio still playing, and no one on board. The boat belonged to attorneys Lana Stempien and Chuck Rutherford, who had set out days earlier on a planned trip to Mackinac Island. There was no sign of them anywhere. Police quickly opened a missing persons investigation, and according to many, what investigators uncovered didn’t add up. Then, nearly two weeks later, Lana’s body was recovered. Chuck was never found. To this day, what happened on that boat remains a mystery, leaving everyone wondering: what happened to Lana Stempien and Chuck Rutherford?

That evening, Sam called 911 to report that he had found Ellen in the kitchen with a knife in her chest. She had been stabbed twenty times, including multiple wounds to the back of her head and neck. At first, the Medical Examiner ruled her death a homicide. But weeks later, the ruling was changed to suicide, shocking many.

That evening, Sam called 911 to report that he had found Ellen in the kitchen with a knife in her chest. She had been stabbed twenty times, including multiple wounds to the back of her head and neck. At first, the Medical Examiner ruled her death a homicide. But weeks later, the ruling was changed to suicide, shocking many. Ellen’s parents have spent more than a decade fighting that decision, convinced their daughter didn’t take her own life, and that the truth about what happened to her is still being covered up.
