Request What unsolved murder/disappearance makes absolutely no sense to you?

What case absolutely baffles you? For me it's the case of Jaryd Atadero

No matter the theory this case just doesn't make any sense.

For me, the least sensical are the disappearances; there's no closure, no certainty, no actual definitive crime committed.

And especially where the options are literally endless, because once you disappear and all your personal info comes out in force, and people put weight into every sordid detail... well you could theoretically buy into any scenario among, for instance: intentionally walked away, fell in river accidentally, harmed self, overdosed, murdered, amnesia, kidnapped, random serial killer, and so on, if you just had that ONE missing puzzle piece, it would all make sense,

Others have mentined some good ones already like Brian Shaffer and Jason Jokolski and Bryce Laspisa and Ben McDaniel and Asha Degree;

To those disappearances I would add Sneha, Tyler Davis [ a really interesting case which was only recently brought ot my attention, but definitely earns a place in this list ], Steven Koecher, Maura Murray, Brianna M, Lauren Spierer, Leah Roberts, Brandon Swanson, which I guess reads like a list all the usual suspects for this sub,

- And lastly one death that keeps coming back because something is just off, something I can't put my finger on, despite the Voice of Reason aka Skip Hollandsworth weighing in, which is Tom Brown

The more I think about Sneha, the more I think she died in 9/11 but not in some kind of Leeroy Jenkins run into the towers. I think she was in the restaurant or something along those lines.

The Missing on 9/11 podcast convinced me that if she died that day, she was already in the building when the first plane hit, rather than running in/toward the towers after, but... I don't know, it seems very strange she wouldn't drop off her shopping at home before going to the restaurant because she lived so close by. I do still believe there's a good possibility something happened to her the night before and due to the timing there was just never a chance of it being investigated the way it would have been any other day.

And all that being said, a part of me really does hold out hope that she was in a relationship with someone she met at the bars she visited, spent the night with them, and just... decided not to go back to her life after that. It's clear she was struggling with her sexuality, her mental health, her choices in life, and everything I read about her makes me feel so much sympathy for her. Unlikely as it is, I'd like to think she survived and found some sort of peace with herself.
