Ruth Elizabeth Brenneman:1973, York, Pennsylvania

Image
   Ruth Elizabeth Brenneman was born on November 26th 1958 to Phyllis Yvonne Dern Brenneman and Richard William “Whitey” Brenneman. The family made their home in York, Pennsylvania.   By 1973 Ruth’s parents had separated. Ruth stayed with either parent some but mostly lived with her 20 year old brother and his wife.   In September of 1973, at the start of the school year, Ruthie disappeared after being dropped off at school one morning by her older brother, Michael.   The family assumed that she had run away. But, there were things that made them doubt that idea as well. Ruth also relied on a daily medication for seizures. She did not have this with her. She hadn’t taken anything really.   In the early 1970’s a missing 14 year old might have been considered just a runaway. Her parents may have been too embarrassed to report her missing. They also might have been wishing that this simply wasn’t happening. Humans under stress and w...

    Jacqueline Victoria Lambert was born on April 6th, 1963 in Killeen, Texas. That’s in Bell County in Central Texas.    Jacqueline grew up in Killeen, Texas. She went by the nickname “Jackie”. Her family last saw the 21 year old in July of 1984 in Killeen. She said she was traveling to Arizona with a long haul truck driver friend.    This beautiful area of Texas has lots of lakes, water sports and water parks are common pastimes. If you are picturing a desert landscape then change that to rolling hills, mature oak trees, and natural lakes. Ranching is a common way of life there. But, there are cities, colleges, theme parks and other tourist activities as well.   Jackie was last seen in the town of Big Lake either at a local Dairy Queen restaurant or at Grandma’s Kitchen with a long haul truck driver. Big Lake is a bit more rural than Killeen but still a busy little town. It is not right on an interstate but major highways and interstates are ju...

Greg Crim:Serial Stalker of Terre Haute, Indiana

Image
     Imagine getting a call from the police and they tell you you’ve been the victim of a crime. But you don’t remember being the victim of a crime. The police assure you that you definitely were the victim of a crime on multiple occasions. They’d like you to come down and talk about it. But you still don’t have any idea what kind of crime it could’ve been.   This strange scenario is exactly what happened to me and hundreds of other women in Terre Haute, Indiana in the 1990’s.    I need to tell you about Greg Crim. In the early 1990s I was living in Terre Haute Indiana. My sister and I and another roommate shared an apartment. It was a ground floor apartment with two bedrooms, only three windows, a front door and a sliding glass backdoor. We were careful to make sure the doors were locked. The sliding glass door had a length of wood that we left in the track to keep it even more secure. We thought we were very safe. We never noticed a break i...
