Unsolved: The murders of David Keller and Candice Kyser
May 8, 1999 is a date that will haunt Regina Lloyd forever. The date rolls off her tongue as easily if she were revealing her birthdate. Over twenty years have passed since Regina’s sister older Shelia Kyser found her daughter Candice Kyser and David Keller murdered inside their Fort Mitchell, Alabama home. Although Candice was a year older than Regina, they were more like sisters than aunt and niece.

The killing of America's most hated woman
Most people cannot remember when prayer was a regular event in public schools. Since my brothers and I attended a Christian private school, prayer was part of our education. But if you attended public school in the past fifty years, then you won’t relate to prayer in public school.

Sexual misconducts plagues the team formerly known as the Redskins
Fifteen former female employees of the NFL team in Washington D.C. have alleged sexual misconduct with multiple members of the inner circle of the front office of the team. This misconduct has apparently been going on for years. Women crying at their desks due to comments, being made to wear sexual revealing garments to increase sales, and unwanted sexual propositions are only the tip of the iceberg.

Adrienne Miranda's pursuit for justice
Is there anything more special than the bond between a mother and her child? I don’t think so. There just seems to be a natural bond we have with our mothers. Even today, whenever I visit my mother, she always has the coffee ready and constantly asks me if I am hungry. I love my mother. She means everything to me.

Human Trafficking
It is a shame, how our natural human rights, can be taken away so easily, and so quickly. What is Human Trafficking? Human trafficking is the use of force, fraud, or coercion to obtain sex and labor participants. Stolen from the United States, there are over two million children, along with rash numbers of men and women who are lured, manipulated, and coerced. There are no limitations of targeted persons used for these types of crimes; human trafficking can occur in any community and victims can be any age, race, gender, or nationality. Traffickers might use violence, manipulation, or false promises of well-paying jobs or romantic relationships to lure victims into trafficking situations. The easiest way to put it, is the fact that human freedoms are taken away for profit.

Rey Rivera: an Unsolved Mystery
Netflix tends to put out some interesting originals. Unsolved Mysteries is no exception. I grew up watching this show, and it sucked when it got cancelled in 2010. Thankfully, Netflix has our backs and remade it with six new episodes. I plan on discussing all of these episodes so that maybe someone could come forward with information in any of these events.

The Disappearance Files - James Daniel Horn
The Disappearance Files is a series appearing on Vocal.Media highlighting missing and possibly murdered indigenous men, women, and children. At times other vulnerable populations may be covered as well. Due to a combination of factors, many of these cases are lacking in terms of published information. In addition, the author seeks to cover every possible theory put forward, no matter how unlikely. Whenever possible information from police reports and multiple media sources has been incorporated into the write-up. Anyone with information about any of the cases featured is encouraged to contact local or tribal law enforcement.
