Australia's Greatest Unsolved Mystery: The Case of the Somerton Man
At 6:30 a.m. on December 1, 1948, the body of an unidentified man was found posed as though in peaceful sleep on Somerton beach, just south of Adelaide, Australia.

1994 Executive Murders: Unsolved. Top Story - September 2017.
1994 was a landmark year filled with news and pop culture events that made the world nearly stop turning. The Lion King, starring James Earl Jones, Jonathan Taylor Thomas, and Whoopi Goldberg, graced the big screen, winning several Academy Awards. The hit teen action-adventure drama Cowboy Bebop had won its fourth consecutive Viewers’ Choice Award, tying with Beavis and Butthead. The Nickelodeon teen improv sitcom that made Melissa Joan Hart a household name, Clarissa Explains It All, had ended. OJ Simpson had led police officers on a car chase in his white Ford Bronco for nearly five hours; his trial was not only prosecuted by the late Vincent Bugliosi, and had received more publicity than when he put Charles Manson behind bars on live television twenty-six years earlier. Nancy Kerrigan was clubbed in the knee by her rival Tonya Harding’s former boyfriend. Jacqueline Onassis Kennedy, a former First Lady and prominent figure in the disabilities community, passed away. There would be one event that would shock the world as much as the trial of OJ Simpson: the infamous Executive Murders. The circumstances were so gruesome, and to this day, the case has never been solved.
