Is Steven Kubacki's 14-month disappearance incident real or just a hoax?

 



Steven Kubacki was a student at Hope College, a small private Christian University near the southeasterrn shore of lake Michigan. In February on 1978, Steven ventured out for several hours of solo cross-country skiing. He would not return home. A day later, when he still hadn’t returned, he was reported missing. He massive search was conducted. Searchers found his skis and ski poles on the beach of the Lake Michigan and footprints on the ice leading up to the lake but none walking away.

When the rescue crew flew over the area, it was reported that his footprints appeared to stop at the frozen water’s edge. There was no sign that the ice had broken anywhere or any clue as to what happened to Steven.

Later that day, his backpack was found in the same general area as his ski’s. No other clues would turn up and It appeared that he vanished into thin air. The search was called off soon after.

Then, 15 months later, on My 5th, 1979, Steven walked up to his father’s house and rang the doorbell. Steven was surprised to know he had been missing for 15 months. He told his father he had very little memory of where he had been.Steven said he had suddenly woken up in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, 700 miles from where he went

missing, lying in a meadow wearing clothes that did not belong to him. He also had a smallsatchel beside him with maps in it, none of which were his. He said that he felt like he had recentlybeen running. His father lived in Pittsfield, 40 miles from where hewoke up. Other than that he had non recollection of where he was or what happened to him inlast 15 months.

Following his return, he refused to speak about his encounter with the media since he had no recollection of it whatsoever. He refused to talk to a therapist since he said he didn’t have to as he didn't have any psychological problems.

In 1983, Steven got a masters in linguistics, and years later PhD in clinical psychology followed. Some would say that getting lost ultimately helped Steven achieve his goal of helping others to find themselves

Cold case murder of Deborah Tomlinson solved after 45 years

Image
The case we have for you today is that of 19-year-old Deborah Tomlinson from Colorado Springs, Colorado. Deborah Tomlinson was a Grand Junction, Colorado local who had a love for her friends, family, and her horses. At 19, Deborah enrolled in college, as she loved being a student and was noted to be outgoing, and had big plans for her future. As a 19-year-old college student, Deborah managed to afford her own apartment near her Mesa College campus. Living on her own, she was able to truly feel like the adult woman she was gradually becoming. Not to mention, the privacy of starting her own life was exactly what Deborah had always wanted. Unfortunately, living alone wasn't always as safe as Deborah may have hoped. In fact, if Deborah hadn't been alone during the week of Christmas in 1975, perhaps someone would have been able to prevent the horrible tragedy that would occur. Or at the least, someone would have been there as a witness to know the absolute truth of what happened. Al

DNA solves Orange County's oldest cold case

Image
The case we have for you today is Orange County, California's oldest cold case. In 1968, the body of an unknown woman wearing a floral-print blouse, purple pants, loafers, and a costume ring with a large blue stone set in a silver band was found in a drainage ditch near New land Street and Yorktown Avenue in Huntington Beach, California. Three young boys accidentally discovered the troubling crime scene, as they wandered closer to what they realized, was, in fact, a human body. They quickly called the police, who were then dispatched to the scene of a crime that would come to haunt Orange County for decades. The woman's body had no form of identification at all. In fact, it appeared as though the woman had been spotless and left purposefully unidentifiable. But one thing was for certain, the woman had not come to the drainage ditch on her own accord. She had been beaten, assaulted, and her throat cut, yet very little evidence was actually collected from the scene, as almost non
