The Babushka Lady

The Babushka Lady is a mysterious woman that was spotted on the film footage of the assassination of John F. Kennedy in 1963. She has her back to the camera but it appears that she is using a camera to film the festivities leading up to JFK's murder. She continues to film all through the shooting and the moments thereafter, even after most everyone has fled the scene, without moving a muscle. Toward the end of the footage, she is seen moving down the street and out of sight. The FBI issued a public request that the woman come forward and turn in the film that she shot. She never did. One woman did come forward several years later claiming to be the Babushka Lady, but she was proved to be a fraud. So the mystery continues. No one knows who the woman was, what she was doing there that day, or why she never came forward with her film.

The Zodiac Killer

At the end of the 1960s the Zodiac Killer terrorized Northern California. The victims were shot. Less than an hour after the second murder, police received an anonymous phone call from a man claiming to be the Zodiac Killer and confessing to the crimes. The authorities believed the man to be Arthur Leigh Allen, however, they could find no evidence to support this theory. About one month later, three identical letters were sent to different newspapers in California. The letters contained a cypher that, once decoded, contained this message: "I LIKE KILLING PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS SO MUCH FUN IT IS MORE FUN THAN KILLING WILD GAME IN THE FORREST BECAUSE MAN IS THE MOST DANGEROUS ANIMAL OF ALL TO KILL SOMETHING GIVES ME THE MOST THRILLING EXPERIENCE IT IS EVEN BETTER THAN GETTING YOUR ROCKS OFF WITH A GIRL THE BEST PART OF IT IS THAT WHEN I DIE I WILL BE REBORN IN PARADISE AND THOSE I HAVE KILLED WILL BECOME MY SLAVES I WILL NOT GIVE YOU MY NAME BECAUSE YOU WILL TRY TO SLOW DOWN OR STOP MY COLLECTING OF SLAVES FOR MY AFTERLIFE". The murders of the Zodiac Killer have never been solved.

The Black Dahlia

The Black Dahlia was the name given to 22 year old fledgling actress and murder victim, Elizabeth Short, who was found severed in two and artfully arranged in a section of grass near a parking lot in Los Angeles, CA in 1947. Her death spawned one of the largest police investigations in Los Angeles history. The Black Dahlia's killer has never been identified.
