The Freeman arson really 4 counts of murder and this guy gets 10 years and ONLY stays in prison for less than 4 years? That's messed up.

You can still hear King Richard's ghostly refrain:
"They paved my gravesite
And put up a parking lot."

[VioletPhoenix]

I think it’s a stretch to call all of these “solved”. Some of them were definitely solved, and there is clear evidence confirming the answer, but several of them just have good possible theories that fit the evidence to one degree or another but can’t really be proven.

The Roanoke colony mystery is so stupid. "Hm all the colonists are missing and wrote the name of a local tribe which is now partly populated by people who clearly have Caucasian ancestry. We'll never know what happened."

10 years for 4 murders and only served 38 months, what a travesty.

Writing I'll Be Gone In The Dark emotionally destroyed Michelle McNamara and she passed away from an accidental drug overdose before she could finish the book. Her widower, the comedian Patton Oswalt, made sure her book was completed and published. In the book, McNamara said about herself, "There's a scream permanently lodged in my throat now." When Michelle McNamara died, she had a daughter who was only 7 years old. Michelle's book became huge, but I'm sure a lot of her readers were surprised to learn that she had worked herself to death.

Aw man. The Mary Celeste mystery has been one of my favorites since I was a kid. I got all excited to hear it had been solved, but you just gave another theory without any proof. Thanks for getting my hopes up, Mojo!

How does someone murder someone and then get served a prison sentence and get out due to good behavior ?? Justice is messed up

I remember when Eric Rudolph was on the run. There were rumors that he was hiding in the woods not far from where I lived and sure enough he was found in Murphy NC, which is about 45 miles from me. I remember seeing bumper stickers on people’s cars that read”Eric Rudolph hide and seek champion 1996-2003”.

The guy killed four people, burned down their house and only got 10 years, but got out in 38 months?!?!🤯😡

[GlassGhost]

"Only 9 of 11 bodies were found, Anastasia's body was missing"

"Oh, turns out one of those bodies were her so mystery solved"

Ummmm....what about the real 2 missing bodies?!

[Hypno]

Now imagine being accused of killing your own child… fucking heartbreaking

[pembrokelove]

I’m surprised there aren’t more people in the comments screaming about #1. How Heather managed to not even get charged is so far beyond the bounds of logic. I can’t imagine that outcome occurring today!

[moustachemoe]

While the murder of Jun Lin is certainly upsetting, it was only an “unsolved mystery” for a few days. Less than a week later they had identified his murderer and a few days after that they had the bastard in custody. It doesn’t feel like it belongs here alongside the Somerton Man and the Zodiac’s cypher.

I go back to school tomorrow. Wish me luck.

The McStay family murder was so tragic, I remember seeing the picture of a family looking like them going across into Mexico and had a little hope until their bodies were found and to think that his so called business partner could murder his friend along with not just his wife but to also murder the small kids….just a horrible sad tragedy!

[alexsmart]

Once again Mojo is playing fast and loose with the truth. In this case the words "Finally Solved".
Let me fix the title for you..
"Top 30 creepiest Mysteries, some of which have been solved, others are still just theories about what happened"

not elegant, but at least not a clickbait lie(which Mojo does more often than not)

[mikefluech]

A decent number of these entries aren’t solved, but you guys just gave researchers best guess(es) and what they believe. I like WatchMojo, but this was disappointing.

[Rocketlux]

So even though the zodiac killer will never be identified but apparently they cracked a 50 year old cypher
