Thanks. The DB Cooper story is always a classic, as well as the crop circles. Wish it was Robert Stack though, but still interesting.

Robert Stack episodes are on Amazon Prime and Hulu. I just watched the Stack version of DB Cooper on Hulu. They've even included text updates where new info has come up on the cases....

Did anyone see the one on today on Lifetime where Matthew McConaughey is playing this guy that gets shot and killed by a flasher? He goes to confront the flasher, who is exposing himself to children, and grabs the guys keys so he can't leave and mr. flasher gets a gun and shoots him. I think I had read that before that he had a part on UM.

He did. That was the episode. The man who shot him was caught

Virginia Madsen also co-hosted the show with Stack in 1999. Curb Your Enthusiasm’s Cheryl Hines, MADtv’s Stephnie Weir, Saw’s Ned Bellamy, and Lost’s Daniel Dae Kim also appeared in episodes.

That episode on how now. They haven't shown it yet

Did anyone understand the segment with Julius Patterson? It was on today. He and his girlfriend kills his handicap sister and an older man they were caregivers for to steal their Social Security checks and went on the run. With his sister I wasn't sure how far he could go without getting caught because I thought SS requires you to have disability reviews every few years that they would have know when his sister didn't show up for doctor appointments or to the SS office. It may have been different with the older gentleman because he was probably getting retirement.

Also, back then you probably had to have a physical address to send the checks to so I wondered how they were getting the money unless both of their checks were being send to the same address. Remarkably they were on the run for 10 years and the only way they got caught is because Julius called a police detective and told them where he buried his sister.

Apparently they had lived at the residence for years and was last seen 86. Jesse was very sick with being blind, deaf and couldn't speak. So they probably wouldn't require once since she disabled from birth and would have no way of recovering.

That's sort of what I was thinking, but wasn't really sure. If she was deaf and blind from birth then her condition would not improve for Social Security to ask for a review, so she was getting a check for life.

The one with Elaine Parent murdering Beverly McGowan on today I had remembered it when it first came on. Although I didn't remember them finally catching her and then she commits suicide. One part they never explained - and I haven't read anything on the case that would explain it either - is who was the transvestite that went to the travel agent. They never identified that person, but they didn't believe it was Elaine Parent. I did read she had a lesbian lover so maybe it was her but nothing was said about that.

I'll read up on it. I was playing video games with the guys last night and just got in

I was reading up on the case. Apparently after her death alot of her activities and criminal partners were left unsolved
