  • 67: MURDER: The Moses Lake Bombings
    Nov 25 2024
    On the morning of August 2, 2008, 69-year-old William “Bill” Walker was at his workshop near Moses Lake, Washington, when an explosion suddenly went off, killing him instantly. Hours later, just after midnight on August 3, another blast ripped through the home of 53-year-old Javier Adame, just miles away, also killing him instantly.

    Investigators were stunned by the two deadly explosions happening so close in proximity and in time. As they pieced together the scenes, they realized both deaths were caused by carefully concealed pipe bombs, manufactured by the same person or people. Despite this connection, investigators could never find a link between the victims, or a clear reason why anyone would want them dead.

    It’s been over 16 years since Bill and Javier were murdered, and investigators are still searching for the person, or people, responsible…

    Between 9:00 and 10:00 am on August 2, 2008, Bill Walker was killed by a pipe bomb concealed inside a marine battery charger at his home on Fourth Street Northeast, about four miles east of Moses Lake, Washington.

    Then, at around 12:30 am on August 3, Javier Adame was killed by a similar pipe bomb hidden inside a police scanner left outside his home on Stratford Road Northeast, just outside the Moses Lake city limits.

    Investigators determined that the pipe bombs used to kill both men were manufactured by the same unknown individual or group.

    Anyone with information about the murders of Bill Walker and Javier Adame is urged to contact the Grant County Sheriff’s Office at (509) 754-2018. A reward is available for information leading to an arrest.

  • 66: MISSING: Jodi Huisentruit
    Nov 18 2024
    On the early morning of June 27, 1995, 27-year-old Jodi Huisentruit, a news anchor in Mason City, Iowa, overslept and rushed out the door to head to work. But she never made it in. Concerned coworkers called the police, who found Jodi’s red Mazda Miata in her apartment’s parking lot. Evidence at the scene suggested a struggle, leading police to believe Jodi had been abducted as she tried to get into her car.

    In the days that followed, search teams scoured Mason City and beyond, but no trace of Jodi was ever found. It’s been more than 29 years since Jodi disappeared, and investigators are still searching for answers…

    Jodi Huisentruit was last heard from in the early hours of June 27, 1995. At around 4:00 am, her producer called to wake her up after she had overslept, and Jodi said she would be on her way to the station. However, she never arrived.

    By 7:15 am, police had been called to her apartment complex at 550 N Kentucky Avenue in Mason City, where they found signs of a struggle near her red Mazda Miata. Her belongings were scattered in the parking lot, but Jodi was nowhere to be found.

    When police canvassed the area, they learned that a white van, possibly a mid-1980s Ford Econoline, was seen in the parking lot at around 4:30 am. It has never been located.

    Jodi is a white woman with brown eyes, standing at approximately 5'3". At the time of her disappearance, she weighed between 110 and 120 pounds and had blonde hair.

    Anyone with information on Jodi’s case can reach out to the Mason City Police Department at (641) 421-3636. Information can also be provided to the Iowa Department of Criminal Investigations at (515) 725-6010.

  • 65: MISSING: Corrie Anderson
    Nov 11 2024
    On the afternoon of October 28, 2008, 36-year-old Corrie Anderson, a beloved mother of three, left her job at a Jamestown, New York, library and visited her fiancé at a nearby car dealership. She told him she planned to head home before picking up her son from school later that day. But Corrie never arrived, and her family quickly grew concerned.

    When they went to check on her, Corrie’s house was empty. Inside, they found fresh groceries and one of her shoes on the stairs, but both Corrie—and her van—were missing. Two days later, her van was found abandoned in a field near a wooded area close to her home. Despite extensive searches, Corrie was never found, leaving her family without answers.

    It’s been just over 16 years since Corrie disappeared, and investigators are still searching for her…

    Corrie Lynn Anderson was last seen at 1:15 p.m. on October 28, 2008, as she left the Lake County Dodge dealership in Jamestown, New York. She was supposed to go to her son’s school by 3:15 p.m., but she never arrived. When her family checked her home on Wellman Road, they found signs she had briefly returned after visiting the dealership, but Corrie was gone.

    Two days later, on October 30, her Dodge Caravan was discovered abandoned in a field near Wellman State Forest, about a half-mile walk through the woods from her home. Years later, her car keys and missing shoe were found in the same field. However, Corrie herself is still missing.

    When Corrie went missing, she was 36 years old. She stood 5’11”, weighed around 170 pounds, and had chin-length blonde hair. She has green eyes and the last time she was seen, she was wearing black corduroy pants, a black leather jacket, and small, wire-rimmed glasses.

    Anyone with information regarding Corrie’s case is asked to call the New York State Police at 716-665-3113.

    If you would like to support the search for Corrie, you can join the Facebook group, “Help Find Corrie Anderson”.

  • 61: MISSING: Gabriel Johnson
    Oct 14 2024
    On December 20th, 2009, Logan McQueary was supposed to gain physical custody of his nearly eight month old son, Gabriel. But when Logan arrived to pick him up, both he and Gabriel's mother, Elizabeth Johnson, weren't home. For days, Logan tried contacting Elizabeth, but she didn't respond. Then, on December 27th, Logan received a text message from Elizabeth claiming she had murdered Gabriel.

    Investigators immediately launched a search for both Gabriel and Elizabeth, but when they located Elizabeth days later, Gabriel was nowhere to be found. Elizabeth eventually told police that she didn't kill her son, but instead participated in an underground adoption in San Antonio, Texas. Investigators looked into Elizabeth's claims, but they were never able to confirm her story. It's been almost 15 years since Gabriel disappeared, and investigators are still searching for him.

    Nearly eight month old Gabriel Johnson was last seen on December 26th, 2009 at the Home Gate Studios and Suites in San Antonio, Texas. In the last known photo of Gabriel, he was wearing a white flannel pajama set decorated with reindeer, Santas, and Christmas trees, and a white knitted cap with light blue and green markings.

    If you have any information in this case, you can call the San Antonio Police Department at (210) 207-7660.
