A twice convicted murderer, an alias, and a fugitive on the run.  In 2002, Ivora “Ivory” Huntley was murdered in Oakland, California after stepping in to protect a friend from an abusive boyfriend. The man accused of killing her, DeMorris Hunter, disappeared.  Months later and nearly 3,000 miles away, another woman was murdered. As investigators began piecing together the connections between the two cases, they uncovered a disturbing history of violence dating back nearly two decades — and discovered the man they were looking for was living under an alias.  SOURCES: Convicted killer DeMorris Hunter sentenced to death for 2002 Orlando murder DEFENDANT SENTENCED TO DEATH FOR 2002 MURDER OF THERESA GREEN - Office of The State Attorney, Fifth Judicial Circuit, Florida FL v.

Arthur Knight, distinctive tattoos and a burial at sea. In 2021 a patient named Arthur Knight was admitted to Queen Elizabeth’s Hospital in Glasgow, Scotland.  Healthcare workers noticed that his tattoos were strikingly similar to an American born man wanted for rape charges out of Utah. That man was Nicholas (Alahverdian) Rossi.  When the man in the hospital was awake and conscious, he claimed he was an Irish born orphan who had never set foot on American soil. He was being framed.  Authorities were convinced they had located fugitive Nicholas Rossi. What was the truth?

173 empty bottles, text messages, and an iPad on the floor.  On March 9th, 2026, 55-year-old Gretchen Ryan called 911 to report that she had found her 16-year-old daughter Grace unresponsive on the bathroom floor.  First responders arrived and Grace Ryan was pronounced deceased at the scene.  Investigators found empty bottles of alcohol hidden throughout the teenage girl’s room.  At first her mother claimed she didn’t know if her daughter had been “getting into her stuff” but an investigation revealed something more sinister than anyone could have imagined.  If you or someone you know is suffering from substance abuse, there is help available.

An allegation, a double murder, and a gold chain necklace.  In April of 2022 concerned family members requested a welfare check at the home of 35-year-old Raechyl Blackshear.  Weeks earlier Raechyl had brought her 14-year-old daughter, Jayla to the Anchorage Police Department. Jayla told officials she had been sexually assaulted by a male family member.  When the family began receiving text messages from Raechyl and Jayla but couldn’t reach them by phone, alarm bells started ringing. But no one could have imagined the true horror that had unfolded at their home in Northeast Anchorage.  RESOURCES: National Domestic Violence Hotline (24/7) (800) 799-7233National Human Trafficking Hotline (888) 373-7888National Sexual Assault Hotline (RAINN) (800) 656-HOPE (4673)RAINN: Rape, Abuse and Incest National NetworkNSVRC: National Sexual Violence Resource CenterNational Sexual Abuse Hotline 1-800-656-HOPE 1-800-656-4673 SOURCES: United States v.
