I’m 63, lived in Washington my whole life. Grew up in Seattle in the 70’s and 80’s. At that time, we had Ted Bundy, Gary Ridgeway, Robert Lee Yates, Westley Allen Dodd and the Hillside strangler Kenneth Bianchi from New York made his way to Bellingham. But we had no idea these monsters were in our backyard. We didn’t have social media just the nighttime news. My heart goes out to all the families affected by these monsters. Great special King 5, been a viewer for 50 plus years.
Autumn's parents broke my heart, especially her father. All of the stories are so tragic here. I pray for justice for the victims and that their loved ones are granted some peace and healing 💜
I'm glad to see cases covered around my home state. There is soo much vast wild wilderness here that I can't help but think of how easy it could be for things to disappear in the dense Forest's here. We have so much dense brush, ferns, moss, trees, black berries, plants that grow like crazy that it seems so easy for things to vanish here. I walk my dogs in the woods all the time and observe nature's habits here and it's crazy how well the forest can hide things. The trees drop so much fur needles, pine needles, leafs, branches, moss, grass,weeds, pinecones, fungus, lichen, logs. It's unreal how active and fast the forest makes things hard to find especially if it's off of a trail. You'd be surprised how little people explore off trails. Most stick to easy paths. Just makes me wonder how many unsolved cases occur around these woods. We have huge areas of hardly explored, ever changing wilderness.
We stick to the "easy" paths as most of us would (I hope it's not just me!) prefer to not damage the habitat. I pack out whatever I pack in and leave only footprints. I don't live in the forest but a lot of critters do and I don't wanna disrupt their cute lil lives. Neighbor.. Oregon here! ☮️💜
Thank you all for watching our Unsolved Northwest special. We hope our reporting leads to answers for the families we talk to. It would be incredible to help solve one of these cases. If you know anything about these cases, please don't hesitate to reach out.
I live in roseville ca, and when I saw your name I just had to reach out and tell you how much I appreciate your reporting and the respect you have for your work and the stories. Thank you!!
Thank you for putting this out to the public. I pray that this special jogs some one’s mind and you get calls and can solve many of these crimes that continue to leave families without answers.
Thank you for putting this out to the public. I pray that this special jogs some one’s mind and you get calls and can solve many of these crimes that continue to leave families without answers. Karen Bodines case seems to easy to not have been solved considering the police had made contact with her at 3am the same day she was found dead, beaten to death. There’s not a chance any one would believe that there’s not DNA evidence on her clothing, vagina, and body that can now be tested to determine who she was last with. Too many cases have been solved that have been open and cold for decades by rerunning DNA through many different sources & even exhuming her body, the DNA is still there & can be ran.
Thanks, but some of the stories are worth watching in depth. The pipe bomber. Never heard of it before and I only watch crime docs. I strongly suggest you to do an investigation documentary on it Mrs.Madison
I'd like to see the case of Denise Simon covered. She was a childhood friend who was later murdered in Kent Wa in 1997 I believe. Detective Melanie Robinson with the Kent Police Department was last detective on the case. I would like to see the DNA in her case be run using Genealogy Matching. There a few Fox News Reports on the case. If all it takes is a few thousand dollars to run the DNA with the new method. I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to raise those funds. She was a mother of young children at the time of her murder who went out to have drinks with friends.
Autumn Stones case needed to be opened up, because it's obviously not a suicide. I'm so glad her parents are fighting for justice. I'm just disgusted that someone is getting away with her homicide. Prayers for justice for her and her family. 🙏
The only way I could see it happening is if she strangled herself with the shoelaces while she was standing in the water. Again that doesn't explain how the jacket was zipped up though. I know a little more about her case and the fact that her kids were taken away from her, and I don't think she was getting married anymore could have led her to suicide. I'm 50/50 on that case
It seems like the police are treating it like a throw away case. They said the case is open but no one is working on it. What good is that?! My heart goes out to her family.
Still a firm believer that DNA testing is the way to solve theses cases; combined of course with every type of testing available. Every municipality needs to find ways to increase funding for all testing!
Agreed. A lot of times just a fresh set of eyes getting the file and then reading through it completely. Most cases they have suspects yet not any or enough evidence that can prosecute the perpetrator(s). There’s so many DNA sites available now that can do more than even the FBI can, & should be utilized in each of these cases & now.
you do realize that police only have DNA records for like 8% of the US population. So even if they tested the DNA, unless the suspect DNA matches one of those 8%, there wouldnt be any DNA matches. (Actually its far less than 8% of the current population, the FBI has like 21 million DNA profiles total... many of those DNA profiles though are for people who have died)
Thanks to Othram Labs and the latest in DNA tech, there are many old cold cases being solved! They're solving them left and right. Genetic genealogy has been a big factor as well. One of their solved cases was up in Spokane. It was a cold case of the kidnapping and murder of a young girl, from over 60 years ago!
As long as it's all handled by trustworthy people. There was an instance not long ago where a lab technician was found short cutting and contaminating samples which led to wrongful convictions. Then there are the blatant planting of evidence etc.
@@brianallison1913 Hopefully all the errors, intentional or not will teach us were to put steps in place to better insure proper handling and testing. Everything a human does science or otherwise can be made better!!
What a great show ! I am impressed. The new cast ar all dressed to the nines and so respectful. I pray for the families. It hurts my heart to see so many families devastated and missing loved ones. Keeping the families in my prayers.
I feel for Kathy Dawsons mother! I hate how the media dehumanizes people, "she was a human being", she was a life loving person, a young mother doing what she could to provide for her child, she was a daughter, a "wonderful sister", a friend! RIP to all those unfairly and cruelly taken too soon.
My heart goes out to Wiki’s family. I took Home Ec with Wiki in high school and remember her well. I also worked with her younger sister briefly at the mall. Wiki was very kind, I’ve never forgotten her. It’s shocking to learn that the boyfriend failed a polygraph test. I would hope that the investigators dig a lot deeper into that situation. Where there’s smoke, there’s fire. Much love and prayers to the family.
The fact her boyfriend was married too. It just seems so obvious to me who killed her. And why information is being withheld from us as to exactly where Wiki’s boyfriend was. Super suspicious.
The police botched Autumn and Wiki's case. Shoelaces around the neck, zipped up jacket, discarded shoes - 'she must have done this to herself.' Couldn't be bothered to verify the alibi of Wiki's boyfriend. Absolutely shameful.
My heart, love, and prayers go out to all these families. No one should have to live with such pain and no answers or justice. I wish I could hug them all. I wish they didnt have such pain to live with.
Somebody does know something! That's why it's so important for these investigators to go back and re-interview people! Relationships deteriorate and sometimes fall completely apart and now one party doesn't have the loyalty to lie anymore.
Our daughter was paralyzed from the waist down. We got a call from the medical examiner that she had committed suicide. This could NOT have been possible. The only gun in the house was up on top of a very tall armoire, she could NOT have reached it and certainly could NOT have got it down or shot herself in that particular angle. There was a message on her phone from somebody we didn’t know that said something like “sleep tight beautiful”. The police grabbed on to the suicide myth and didn’t investigate further. This was in Tacoma, WA.
This was so heartbreaking to watch. There are people out there who know something or know someone who knows someone who knows something. I'm sharing in the hopes that others will also share. And maybe someone will come forward or at least have a tip to share with police or someone. I feel for the families and or loved ones. It's a hurt that never goes away. I know first hand after my nephew was murdered not long ago. His murderer still walks free. And I know someone knows who he is. RIP Aaron we all miss you so much.
I don't know why, it hurts a little extra when it's closer to home / where you live. I hope this helps bring these cases back to the forefront for people and leads are provided and solutions found.
@@tomtroy3792 that is also likely but still. There's been endless of cases where the killer has even been pallbearers, have attended the victims.fumeral, visited with the grieving families and so on and such. Let's say you catch footage of someone leaving flowers or something at the victims memorial and crying... Then the man or women gets recognized and gets brought in for an interview but the person of interest adamantly denies that they've ever heard of the victims name. Well, that could be of value in the investigation.
Why was Wiki's boyfriend's whereabouts not been verified or disproved!? And he failed a polygraph? Those "storylines" could be disproven!? Sounds suspicious to me....prayer for Wiki's family 🕯️🕯️🕯️
There is a podcast episode that goes into much more detail about Nguyen Thu “Wiki” Phung. It’s called “The Vanished” from Wondery. It’s dated October 3rd.
Great series and I hope you do more. Maybe come a little further North. Patti Krieger has been missing for 10yrs + Would love to see some light to that case.
I Love your coverage, I am from Seattle, born in 1971. The bomb case, sounds like kids, or one kid meaning 12-18 year old, who's father had that stuff in his garage or tool shed. I think it was a prank gone wrong and the kid did not understand the gravity of the prank. I would look back and see which children/teens were in trouble back then in the community. I would actually go back and look up some Science teachers at the local junior high and high school and see if any of the kids they can recall in science class were into making bombs or showed interest in such. The August 30'th case I remember well as it's my B-day, I am certain the baby daddy did this or if he was seeing someone on the side a woman did it. What makes no sense is, if you were going to kill yourself, why would you or how would you tie your laces so tight to do that? I've not tried but??? The boyfriend is clearly the perp in the Wiki case this was just covered about 4 weeks ago on the vanished podcast. That boyfriend, had silly sick stories to tell. The boyfriend needs to be arrested! Or taken out to sea by one of the cops who care.
I don't normally watch this sort of thing but I live in Washington and remember allot of this stuff. Sending love and light to the families and praying thankfully that these monsters will be brought to justice so these people might have closure. Thanks to king 5 news for refreshing my memory in hopes these issues will be resolved ❤❤❤
I wish we could solve the case of Laura Law- born in Finland and murdered in Aberdeen WA in 1940. There was a song written about her. I lived across the street from her boarded up house as a kid, two blocks from where Kurt Cobain grew up. I used to tell my sisters the house was haunted, never knowing at the time it was the site of Aberdeen’s oldest unsolved murder. She was bludgeoned with an axe and her skull was caved in while her small son was asleep down the hall and her husband and parents were at some political rally. Her mother found her. She was only 26 or so.
Clearly Autumn Stone’s ex fiancé has motive. From a Kiro 7 report: She’d just given birth to her second son and had just broken up with her fiancé, who she suspected of hurting their child. Autumn’s friend, Kymberly Adams, was one of the last people to speak to her that day. “She told me that she was going to get answers as to what happened to the baby that day. And when she said that day to me, she stressed today,” recounted Adams.
I just feel so sorry for all of these families who’ve lost their loved ones, my heart aches for them. I hope in each of the cases, the people get the answers they need and deserve. I’m a firm believer in what Patrice said… things done in the dark WILL BE brought to light, truth always has a way of rising to the top, even if it takes awhile.
It seems as though the Seattle Police, being very short on personal, just closed the Green lake murder case prematurely. Clearly, she didn't strangle herself with shoelaces, and the stats tell us that if someone is wanting to take their life , they do it in privacy and will usually use pills to overdose as pain free as possible. It's highly unlikely that a young woman especially, would go to Green lake and strangle them self. It is more of a crime of passion, and it's highly likely she knew her attacker, and that they looked her in her eyes as they dispatched her. The authorities need to reopen her case, and vet it properly...
The Stone case they should send the shoe laces, running shoes & jacket to Othram labs in Texas so if there is any D.N.A they will be able to recover it.
The strangest thing about the bombing case is that the battery charger the bomb was in belonged to the victim William Walker. Seems someone would have to know him to plant a bomb in something that belonged to him. Almost seems like the second bombing was a decoy to throw the police off when the target was really the first victim. The cops seem to think it was the other way around though.
Regarding the "serial killer" case involving the girl named Sara... Has anyone considered it could possibly be related to the Canal Murders in Phoenix, AZ a few years back? If memory serves, the killer was a guy who called himself the "Zombie Hunter". Killings took place in the early 1990's. The stabbing MO's in the KING 5 report here seem similar and the perp has/had ties to the Everett, WA area. That said, the composite drawing shown doesn't look like a match but it might be worth it for someone to check out the timelines for when the guy was living in Everett.
Not sure, I remember they found something in a cab 🚕 linked to a suspect, I think they basically knew who he was but didn’t have anything too solid on him.
oh wow. putting those life sized cutouts of her by the memorial on the side of the road is going to freak someone out bad enough to turn themselves in. they're gonna drive by there and think she's standing there waiting for them!
What kind of callous individual tells a father he has Sarah outside, in a body bag? To me, this is just mean spirited. So sorry to her father. May she rest peacefully...
This is really great work. Will you be doing more of these shows? I have cases I have been researching in Washington for several years and might have some interesting information for you should you include any of the cases I am working on in future episodes.
Autumn Stone’s murderer is still out there. That means everyone of us living in Seattle could be bisexual next murder victim. We ALL should be demanding the SPD solve this case. Everyone reading this has a daughter or granddaughter that could be a victim of this murderer. The SPD needs to do better for our city.
Really necessary to remind the citizens of WA that there are many individuals who have been lost to their families. Money should be allocated yearly to advance resolution of these lives lost for their families and LE who are assigned these cases.
Not going to lie, Autumn's dad broke my heart seeing him cry for his daughter and saying I can't go on that's deep. Hang in there, sir may God heal you and your family. Just know God is protecting her so you can rest a bit easy. I can't imagine losing a daughter let lone a child.
I drove by the morning Karen was found. I've never forgotten about her. I've left flowers for her in the past and I'm saddened to hear it's not solved.
In a body bag??? What a horrendous way to inform a father about his daughter’s death. How insensitive! I hope that cop faced some form of disciplinary action.
I love that reporter woman's white cape jacket ! Very nicely dressed reporters. Dressed to the nines. So repsectful of the cases. Wow. I am impressed !
Just the other day I found a large electric mussel massager out side of the rite aid store at 72nd and Pacific in Tacoma. I plugged it in when I got home. I sure wouldn't now after seeing this.
A polygraph test means nothing as it's not admissible in court. And it should be outlawed altogether . If it's not admissible in court, then it shouldn't be an option to start with !!!!
Sadly drugs, hanging with the wrong crowd and gang activity was likely involved in most of these, the house shot up on Turkey day was the second time it was shot at and no one asks why???
Wow SHOCKING really! Sorry to all of these families that are struggling with the pain of losing their loved ones. From what has been shared on this program, Unsolved N.W. you can get away with murder real easy in the N.W.!!! The police seem so non-challen and bored!
I can’t believe that the cops told the dad that his daughter was in a body bag 😮😡😢. What kind of person does that??? Then from a representative of the cops is just wrong!!!😡
I’m so sorry this happen to you girls, you made a comment that someone a “stranger “planted flowers, if you could have a camera on the site maybe the killer has visited or visits ,maybe feeling guilty or other reasons, just a thought maybe on the anniversary of her death …just an idea
Have they looked from the angle that the second bomb victim was the one who built them and he accidentally detonated it on himself? Im sure they did. It is strange.
Great show King 5!!!! More cities NEED to do a show exactly like this with their own unsolved cases
Every single one of the family members left asking questions, showed their heartbreak in their eyes.
Thank you for this program for our region.
I’m 63, lived in Washington my whole life. Grew up in Seattle in the 70’s and 80’s.

But we had no idea these monsters were in our backyard. We didn’t have social media just the nighttime news. My heart goes out to all the families affected by these monsters.

In the Boudine case they should put up a hidden camera at her memorial site. See who may leave things as a possible sign of guilt.
I'm pretty sure they do but sociopaths don't have guilt

Plz make the background music louder. I can still hear the people talk a little bit.
Social media might be the answer to unsolved cases and holding people accountable for their actions, finally everyone is watching.

Clearly Autumn Stone’s ex fiancé has motive.
From a Kiro 7 report:
She’d just given birth to her second son and had just broken up with her fiancé, who she suspected of hurting their child.
Autumn’s friend, Kymberly Adams, was one of the last people to speak to her that day.
“She told me that she was going to get answers as to what happened to the baby that day. And when she said that day to me, she stressed today,” recounted Adams.
I just feel so sorry for all of these families who’ve lost their loved ones, my heart aches for them. I hope in each of the cases, the people get the answers they need and deserve.
I’m a firm believer in what Patrice said… things done in the dark WILL BE brought to light, truth always has a way of rising to the top, even if it takes awhile.
It seems as though the Seattle Police, being very short on personal, just closed the Green lake murder case prematurely. Clearly, she didn't strangle herself with shoelaces, and the stats tell us that if someone is wanting to take their life , they do it in privacy and will usually use pills to overdose as pain free as possible. It's highly unlikely that a young woman especially, would go to Green lake and strangle them self. It is more of a crime of passion, and it's highly likely she knew her attacker, and that they looked her in her eyes as they dispatched her. The authorities need to reopen her case, and vet it properly...
They were beautiful ppl. The case of Autumn especially got to me. It could happen to anyone. So heartbreaking for her parents. ❤
Infinity blessings King 5 & to all the victim's family and loved ones.
The Stone case they should send the shoe laces, running shoes & jacket to Othram labs in Texas so if there is any D.N.A they will be able to recover it.
The strangest thing about the bombing case is that the battery charger the bomb was in belonged to the victim William Walker. Seems someone would have to know him to plant a bomb in something that belonged to him. Almost seems like the second bombing was a decoy to throw the police off when the target was really the first victim. The cops seem to think it was the other way around though.
Regarding the "serial killer" case involving the girl named Sara... Has anyone considered it could possibly be related to the Canal Murders in Phoenix, AZ a few years back? If memory serves, the killer was a guy who called himself the "Zombie Hunter". Killings took place in the early 1990's. The stabbing MO's in the KING 5 report here seem similar and the perp has/had ties to the Everett, WA area. That said, the composite drawing shown doesn't look like a match but it might be worth it for someone to check out the timelines for when the guy was living in Everett.
Not sure, I remember they found something in a cab 🚕 linked to a suspect, I think they basically knew who he was but didn’t have anything too solid on him.
oh wow. putting those life sized cutouts of her by the memorial on the side of the road is going to freak someone out bad enough to turn themselves in. they're gonna drive by there and think she's standing there waiting for them!
Please send these families some answers! 💔💕
Almost every high profile American serial killer has had some kind of connection to the PNW…. It’s so weird.
Heart breaking 💔 & to never know the truth. As a parent you can never let it go… always wondering why.
My heart goes out to the families 😢👵🏻👩🌾❣️
Watching from Alexandria , Louisiana much love 🦍🦍🐊🐊
God bless all these loved ones and their lost family members. Justice will come one way or another
Such a beautiful area to have such evil reside
What kind of callous individual tells a father he has Sarah outside, in a body bag? To me, this is just mean spirited. So sorry to her father. May she rest peacefully...
Remind me to never go missing in the northwest
God bless you and your family and your family is in my thoughts and prayers 🙏❤️ you'll always carry her heart within yours
My heart goes out to all the families can’t imagine your pain and loss. I pray you find peace ❤️
What a strong man you are Kenny. I hope the people responsible for this are captured and pay for this.
This is really great work. Will you be doing more of these shows? I have cases I have been researching in Washington for several years and might have some interesting information for you should you include any of the cases I am working on in future episodes.
Thank you!
God, let justice be done and the truth be revealed.
These are all so sad, I really hope these families receive answers soon!
So sorry girls for your loss prayers Deepest Condolences i hope you find out
Thank you.
🕯️🌌💕
Autumn Stone’s murderer is still out there. That means everyone of us living in Seattle could be bisexual next murder victim. We ALL should be demanding the SPD solve this case.
Everyone reading this has a daughter or granddaughter that could be a victim of this murderer.
The SPD needs to do better for our city.
Amber's parents just break my heart. I lost my son to diabetes in 2021. Even though he was not murdered, you never get over the pain. Trust me.
Pray for justice for all still missing 🙏 ❤️ from northeastern
First time i watched this never seen it before awesome I pray they all have closure
I have lived in the northwest all my life and i cant believe how much disgusting horrible things have happened all around me😢
Amazing how most of these aren't solved.. condolences to the families...
38:00-38:21
That's seriously how they told her dad?!
She's in a body bag outside?!!.
That's cold!
Why hello. DB here! Enjoy!
well done production
Really necessary to remind the citizens of WA that there are many individuals who have been lost to their families. Money should be allocated yearly to advance resolution of these lives lost for their families and LE who are assigned these cases.
Real journalism
38:21 how awfully disrespectful the way police brings the news to her father 😢
Prayers to all the parents 🙏🙏😇😇
Karen Bodine case: the older girl was in trouble at school for the pink hair and her mom dyed her hair in support?! 🔎
Not going to lie, Autumn's dad broke my heart seeing him cry for his daughter and saying I can't go on that's deep. Hang in there, sir may God heal you and your family. Just know God is protecting her so you can rest a bit easy. I can't imagine losing a daughter let lone a child.
I drove by the morning Karen was found. I've never forgotten about her. I've left flowers for her in the past and I'm saddened to hear it's not solved.
In a body bag??? What a horrendous way to inform a father about his daughter’s death. How insensitive! I hope that cop faced some form of disciplinary action.
Well said 😡
I love that reporter woman's white cape jacket ! Very nicely dressed reporters. Dressed to the nines. So repsectful of the cases. Wow. I am impressed !
The killer planted the flowers.....:( Put a deer cam there to watch everyone who visits your mom's site.
Just the other day I found a large electric mussel massager out side of the rite aid store at 72nd and Pacific in Tacoma. I plugged it in when I got home. I sure wouldn't now after seeing this.
A polygraph test means nothing as it's not admissible in court. And it should be outlawed altogether . If it's not admissible in court, then it shouldn't be an option to start with !!!!
Sadly drugs, hanging with the wrong crowd and gang activity was likely involved in most of these, the house shot up on Turkey day was the second time it was shot at and no one asks why???
Wow SHOCKING really! Sorry to all of these families that are struggling with the pain of losing their loved ones. From what has been shared on this program, Unsolved N.W. you can get away with murder real easy in the N.W.!!! The police seem so non-challen and bored!
Cops get scared too
Nonchalant
Kurt cobain's death suspicious too. P i felt strongly about that concerning his wife!
Kurt Cobain was murdered.
All these families need help and prayers❤
Great news
I live in washington scary!!! So much like this!!
An open case that isn’t being investigated is a closed case.
Prayers
I can’t believe that the cops told the dad that his daughter was in a body bag 😮😡😢. What kind of person does that??? Then from a representative of the cops is just wrong!!!😡
I’m so sorry this happen to you girls, you made a comment that someone a “stranger “planted flowers, if you could have a camera on the site maybe the killer has visited or visits ,maybe feeling guilty or other reasons, just a thought maybe on the anniversary of her death …just an idea
Have they looked from the angle that the second bomb victim was the one who built them and he accidentally detonated it on himself? Im sure they did. It is strange.
Y'all ain't Robert Stack. Sit down!
Autumn’s father broke my heart
They know who killed Karen. It's just tragic they can't charge him. 💔
What does that mean?? @mortalclown3812
Yakima is a place that should always be suspect!!
And Bellingham
😮😮😮😮😮
It's very unfortunate but a polygraph test does not prove or disprove anything I don't think they're even admissible in court and should not be.
