In October 1986, two young girls vanished in Brighton, Sussex, England. 9 year old Nicola Fellows and Karen Hadaway were playing in Wild Park when a monster murdered them. The main suspect was identified quickly, but missteps in the investigation led to an acquittal. Thankfully, investigators did not give up and over three decades later, the girls finally got justice. The case became known as “The Babes in the Wood” murders after a classic English children’s tale and was one of Sussex’s longest investigations.

Ryan Shtuka was a 20-year-old from Beaumont, Alberta, who disappeared in the early morning hours of February 17, 2018, while living and working at Sun Peaks Resort in British Columbia. After attending a silent disco and a nearby house party, Ryan was last seen around 2:00 a.m. as he appeared to be leaving to walk the short distance home, but he never arrived. Extensive searches by police, search-and-rescue teams, his family and volunteers found no physical trace of Ryan, and his phone and social media activity stopped completely. Despite years of investigation and ongoing public awareness efforts by his family, including memorial events and campaigns, Ryan’s disappearance remains unsolved.

In September 1988, 7 year old Jaclyn Dowaliby disappeared from her home in Midlothian, Illinois. 5 days later, her body was found in nearby Blue Island. Eventually, someone would be convicted for her murder… but that person would later be acquitted, as the evidence against them was extremely minimal. Technically, Jaclyn’s murder case remains unsolved after 38 years.

If you have information about the murder of Jaclyn Dowaliby, please call the Midlothian Police Department at 708–385–2534 or email the Illinois State Police at [email protected].

Brianna Maitland was 17-years-old when she disappeared from Montgomery, Vermont on the night of March 19, 2004. After spending part of the day shopping with her mother, during which Brianna briefly became visibly shaken for unexplained reasons, she went to work her evening shift as a dishwasher at the Black Lantern Inn. She finished work around 11:20 p.m. and left alone in her car, telling coworkers she planned to go home and rest before working the next day. The following afternoon, Brianna’s green 1985 Oldsmobile was found abandoned along Route 118 near Richford, Vermont, backed into an old, vacant building. Brianna was not at the scene, and her personal belongings—including money, her ATM card, glasses, and medication—were left inside the vehicle, indicating she likely did not leave voluntarily. Brianna’s disappearance remains unsolved. Her family, particularly her father, Bruce Maitland, has continued to advocate for answers through private investigators, public awareness efforts, and the nonprofit Private Investigations for the Missing. Despite renewed attention, FBI involvement, and a standing reward for information, no definitive explanation for what happened to Brianna Maitland has ever been confirmed.

If you have any information concerning Brianna’s case, please contact the FBI's Toll-Free Tipline at 1-800-225-5324 or the Vermont State Police Tipline at 1-844-848-8477. You may also contact your local FBI office, or you can submit a tip online at tips.fbi.gov. The FBI is offering a reward of up to $40,000 for information leading to the recovery of Brianna.
