    Could you do Madison Scott? She disappeared one night at her friend's birthday party. The party was a group of people who were supposed to camp in the woods but everyone got so drunk and left and she was the only one who camped, apparently not realising everyone else hadn't stayed to camp like they were supposed to. Her friend literally left her alone in the woods in a tent. I'm not sure of the whole story but it seems soo suss. Love your vids btw you do such a good job on them and you have v similar opinions to me on the cases! Xx

    Idk what “Robert” described... He said he had repressed memories, maybe he really did see something, and just associated it with Dana’s case bc it was reported on so thoroughly. Also he says his little brother was there, so I’d be interested to know if he remembers anything.

    • @chicken-hb9zg
      @chicken-hb9zg 3 года назад +20

      I was thinking something similar, maybe even that he did witness Dana's assault and murder, but due to years of drinking and repressed memories and childhood trauma, the details perhaps are muddled up. Trauma can do really strange things to the brain, and in an attempt to make sense of the situation or cope the mind may change or even repress key details (perhaps even the identity of the perpetrator).

    • @tanyakristeen
      @tanyakristeen 3 года назад +5

      Im between he saw some murder that just wasnt Dana's and was the dna not the guy he accused because the dna collected was the boys from when he supposedly posed her? I feel like if that dna was tested against his and it is Then his story could be proven true. Idk what type of dna it is. Maybe the dude hurt the boy and he left some blood on her from his own injuries while supposedly posing her? If not id bet his description of the clothes compared to missing hitch hikers nearby would solve whatever he did see. Also curioushow close that dump site is to that tree farm? Some people seem to have inserted themselves right away. So many options so few answers.

    • @Nozzymaks
      @Nozzymaks 2 года назад +6

      What if "Robert" or his brother was sexually assaulted/molested by that man they were in the car with, I mean he was a convicted paedophile. Maybe that's why Robert turned to alcoholism to suppress that trauma then later he shifted or projected that trauma onto something else like mistaking it for having witnessed Dana's death. People who suffer from alcoholism can have a lot of impaired memory (continuous and excessive use of alcohol can cause brain atrophy).

    • @ANPC-pi9vu
      @ANPC-pi9vu 2 года назад +4

      I suspect 'Robert' really was the victim of his neighbor and ether was trying to get another conviction on him so he never gets out of prison, or else has false memories due to trauma and hearing this story in the news. It's shockingly easy to remember things that never really happened to you just because you heard a story that you related to in some way, and the earlier in childhood a memory is, the foggier and easier to corrupt. His brother was probably too young at the time to have reliable memories at all. There's a big difference between asking a child what they saw soon after an event and asking an adult what they remember from so far back. The older any memory is, the less reliable it is, and the younger you were, even less reliable still.

      In some places, people just buried things back in the day. Especially if it would cost money to have it towed away. "You want me to pay $20 to tow this car to the junk yard? Screw that, I'll just dig a hole." I wouldn't be surprised to find out someone buried a car in the yard of the house I live in back in the 70s or 80s. It's weird, but that's just how it was.

    In the 80s hitchhiking was so normal. As a kid, I remember seeing people on the road so often. Until 1986 when the movie The Hitcher came out, not many people seemed to think twice about it. That movie scared the crap out of people. You just never heard about people going missing and murdered back then. It was not nearly like now. Also, things weren't televised as widely or even necessarily covered by the news nationwide. Definitely different times.

    I am not saying I believe Robert’s story, but he said that he had just recently become sober, which may explain why his story changed around so much?? And for the false information he may have remembered the incident vaguely and decided to look it up and he then convinced himself that these things that people were writing about were what he saw? To be fair it had been about 30 years and he was a former alcoholic, idk just an idea
    EDIT:
    Robert also mentioned he had a very traumatic childhood which means he may have tried to forget about it?

And why not try cadaver dogs on the car etc.

    • @ScrewgeMcF_ck
      @ScrewgeMcF_ck 5 лет назад +24

      That’s exactly what I was thinking. Not only was he going through personal trauma prior to Dana’s death, but as well as seeing this at such a young age and trying to erase it with alcohol, things are going to get mixed up. As far as “Robert” saying there were injuries sustained that weren’t found in the investigation, it was the 80s. With many cases involved in that time period there are certain things that may not be picked up due to insufficient technology. It’s been proven with other investigations in which bodies were exhumed later, and other injuries were found. As far as clothing and items of Dana “not existing”, maybe they did and her killer took them and him them as trophies, or to throw off police. I personally believe “Robert” is telling the truth. The car in question had very high back doors, so the comment about no one seeing him or his little brother due to the lack of booster seats is completely plausible, as “Robert’s” head may not have reached the top where the window meets the door.

    • @alisaschaffner6919
      @alisaschaffner6919 5 лет назад +6

      In psychology there is something called „false memories“ which means that you can actually make people believe to remember something they didn’t even see or experience. Given that fact it is definitely not unlikely that „Robert‘s“ memories had been influenced by articles he had read etc.! So in my opinion there is a chance he actually was involved...

    I think “Robert” genuinely believed he was involved in the crime, due to his alcoholism it’s thought that he had read these articles over the years and it had stuck in his head and when he stopped drinking all these other traumas cane back and with confusion he believed he was also there at the crime of Dana. It’s really common that people with addiction and trauma have experiences like this. I don’t think he purposely was telling A lie he genuinely believed he was there

    @Clarita-sh4nq 5 лет назад +170

    This is a very tragic story for a number of reasons. All evidence shows that they had the killer (Somerton) and literally let him walk away. His behavior seems perfectly logical to me; at first he believed the police had more than enough evidence to lock him up so he confessed to committing the murder but once he realized he might actually walk away and clear his name, he changed his tactics. I would not be surprised if the police was afraid to take the blame for making such a mistake because this would most likely result in a perfectly-understandable outrage within the community.
    You also chose not to mention that Dana was actually a troubled teen who was going through the climax of a very rebellious phase at the time of her kidnapping. During the months leading to the tragic events she was often caught skipping classes, encouraging others to do so, forging notes for school and keeping lots of secrets from her parents. I don't believe this is anyhow connected to the kidnapping or murder but it might explain why she decided to hitchhike instead of waiting for the bus. This also increases the possibility of the murderer being someone she never knew prior to that day.

    • @creepyaxe
      @creepyaxe 5 лет назад +15

      I'm pretty sure Somerton would have been tested for a DNA match.
      He wanted an apology from the police for suspecting him all these years, so I'd
      say he was checked and cleared.

    • @giuliagpacheco
      @giuliagpacheco 4 года назад +37

      I don't think the fact that she was skipping classes and encouraging others to do so and all of that was relevant to the case. Maybe Bella decided not to talk about that because she wanted to keep the victim's memory in a good way. If she went missing, if no one had ever found her body, then i think it would be relevant to say that. Just a tought.

    • @kaleidoscopic9495
      @kaleidoscopic9495 3 года назад +19

      @@giuliagpacheco Agreed. She was murdered, not a potential runaway with a past that would be important to mention.
      If it were my daughter and those things weren't relevant to the case, I'd be upset if that's how people chose to portray her (especially because the victim's past can have positive or negative impacts on how much people care and offer help). Humans are very complex, so of course there are also tons of positives to focus on instead, which I'm glad Bella did, and I'm sure her family would be too.

      @@creepyaxe Good point, I forgot that there was DNA evidence in this case.
      Honestly, thinking about how many confessions truly have been coerced, sometimes due to the controversial Reid technique, or when people have randomly confessed to crimes (even when the person turns out to actually be alive!) I take confessions much less seriously than other evidence.

    • @ckendall67
      @ckendall67 2 года назад

      But I thought that Somerton was released because there really wasn't enough physical evidence connecting him to the crime. He said in an interview he practically just told them where the weapon was & where the car was but he ultimately mislead the officers and thus was subsequently charged with public mischief. I do sure hope that it wasn't him though and that the police let him walk off when it possibly could've been him but a few years ago the RNC confirmed they had a DNA match linking an 'unknown male suspect' to the murder. But that's where the problem lays; they still don't have a definitive identify for this individual. So the years keep passing by and we don't know for sure if there ever will be somebody to answer for this tragic murder, but I often still hold out hope that there will be someday....maybe.

The police won’t do anything before a full 24 hours.

They never got a DNA test of him (or at least it was never mentioned) and he said he was drunk around the time... maybe he was the one who did it. There have been quite a few young kids throughout history that have been capable of dark things like that. Another theory involving him is maybe someone else was involved in killing Dana? Possibly someone who was already at Maddox Cove waiting for them to arrive. What if Thomas was just the face he remembers because he was driving, but someone else carried out the deed? Robert said he has lots of repressed memories so maybe there’s something he doesn’t remember.

    what if the 2 Christmas tree guys murdered her and they just made the car thing up?

      Ellen another witness came forward after Dana’s body was found stating that they too spotted the car and that it was near the wooden area her body was found at. So the car was real.

    What if the brothers are the murders. Because when Dana was hitch hiking she was on a busy ish road so it’s kinda impossible that not a single person saw her getting into that car

      Mia Conti But they gave a description of the person who picked her up, and then that same man and car that picked her up were spotted at the Woods where she was found? I don’t think it was the brothers

      Mia Conti they were at work, outside which means a lot of people would see them or not. Her parents would be sooner killers dan her.
