Colin Michael Goode Colin Michael Goode was a former gardener
with Auckland City parks and lived in his isolated home near Claris on Great Barrier
Island. He was a known cannabis grower on the island. He had very minimal contact with the outside
world. On 30 June,1999, his decomposing body would
be found in his isolated home. He was last seen a month earlier in April
1999. Colin’s body was lying on a double bed in
master bedroom and most shocking was that his right hand was missing. The remains of his dog were also found beside
him. Police found two rifles a .303 and a .22,
in the bedroom but it was quickly determined that Colin did not die from gunshot wounds. In fact, Despite "comprehensive" post mortem
examinations, the coroner could not establish the cause of death. Police found out that Colin had complained
in 1991 that he had been assaulted in his home by armed Mongrel Mob members demanding
13kg of cannabis they claimed he had. They allegedly robbed him of a kilogram of
cannabis and $1240. The person who alerted police that Colin has
not been seen for a long time was questioned but the man was quickly ruled out as a suspect. The man died in 2002 of drug overdose. The case has grown cold since and remains
unsolved to this day. Diane Suzuki Diane Suzuki was a nineteen-year-old dancer
and student at the University of Hawaii at Manoa who lived in Halawa. She worked part-time children’s dance instructor
at the Rosalie Woodson Dance Academy. On 6th July 1985, Diane had planned to go
with her friends to the North Shore of Oahu after work with a friend. On that day, the class she was teaching ended
at 3:00 p.m. At 3:15pm her friend arrived at the academy
to pick her up but could not find her anywhere. Her car was still in the parking lot and she
had left her keys and purse behind. After Diane’s friend notified her parents
of her disappearance, they parked and camped outside the dance studio just in case she
returned. During this time, they witnessed a man Named
Dewey Hamasaki, his father and his sister leaving the building carrying a heavy trunk
that was then placed onto a vehicle. Dewey reportedly had a crush on Diane and
worked at the academy as a photographer. He was also present at the academy when she
finished her class that day. Police questioned Dewey and he denied having
anything to do with her disappearance. Police found he had scratches on his arms
that he claimed to have been inflicted when he was attacked by a rooster. A marsh around his house was also searched
but nothing turned up. Although he failed a polygraph test, due to
the lack of evidence he was released. Five years later, Police requested a search
warrant for the dance studio, and for Dewey’s father’s pig farm. However, only search warrant for the dance
studio was approved. The police investigated the dance studio. At the studio, they used luminal, a substance
that reacts to blood. The evidence showed a lot of trace blood evidence
in the bathroom area of the dance studio. But there was no record of Diane's blood type
to make a comparison. Five months later, the police finally got
the approval to search the pig farm owned by Dewey’s Father. They dredged a pond on the property for several
days. During their search, the officers came across
a stone wall and noticed that a section of the wall appeared to have been rebuilt. Dewey’s father got agitated when the police
turned their attention to the wall. The wall was broke open but nothing was found. The soil beneath the wall was analysed and
it indicated that the wall had ben built five months earlier and also showed that earth
behind the six month soil had been absent of oxygen since about the time of Diane’s
disappearance. Investigators believe the delay in the two
search warrants gave Hamasaki’s enough time to hide the body. The police also dug up some banana trees on
the farm and found some clothes that were similar to the one Diane was wearing. However, after all those years, Diane’s
family couldn’t identify it. The case has grown cold ever since. Diane’s remains have never been found. Her mother died in 1997 without ever finding
out the truth about her daughter’s disappearance. Frauke Liebs It was an exciting night in Paderborn on June
20, 2006, as the FIFA World Cup Tournament was in full swing. 21-year-old student nurse, Frauke Liebs, visited
some friends at a local bar to watch a match between England and Sweden. Sometime before midnight, Frauke’s phone
ran out of battery, so she borrowed a friends cellphone battery. Eventually she returned the battery and began
heading home around 11 pm. Her apartment from the bar was about 1.5 km
and she decided to walk the distance on foot as she did not have enough money with her
to catch a bus. Almost 2 hours later, at 12:49 pm, Frauke’s
roommate, Christos, received a text message from her saying she would be back later. However, Frauke never arrived home and when
she failed show up for work, her mother reported her missing. Police tracked the location of the text message
she sent to Christos and discovered that the message was sent from the small city of Neiheim,
which was about 35 km from Paderborn. In the days that followed, Frauke called her
roommate five times from five different locations within Paderborn. The first call came the night after she disappeared,
from an area south of Paderborn. In the call she said “Hello, Christos. I just wanted to tell you I’m fine, tell
mom and dad I’m fine.” This was unusual, since she used his full
name rather than his nickname, Chris. In the next few days, Frauke continued to
say that she would return home soon, but did not communicate any information about her
situation. She provided only vague or evasive answers
to questions. During the last phone call, on June 27, Frauke’s
sister spoke to her and later told police that Frauke had answered a faint ‘yes’
when asked whether she was being held captive and followed immediately by a loud “No”
before the call abruptly ended. Neither Chris nor any of Frauke’s other
friends or family would ever hear from her again. Four months later, on October 4, A hunter
Discovered Frauke’s skeletonised body in wooded area near Lichtenau, About 20 km from
where she was last seen. The body was found with the clothes she was
wearing on the day of her disappearance. Her phone, handbag, watch and wallet were
nowhere to be found. Due to the advanced decomposition of her body,
no time or cause of death could be determined. There was no evidence or DNA found at the
scene. Police later concluded that Frauke had been
held captive for a while in Nieheim before being killed and her body dumped. And the phone calls from Paderborn may have
been diversionary maneuvers. In total 900 people have been questioned by
police, narrowed down to five initial suspects. However, they were soon cleared after they
provided alibis. No arrests have been made in the death of
Frauke Liebs, and the case remains unsolved. Jenny Low Chang Jenny Low Chang was born in Los Angeles on
February 5, 1958. In 1977, she was studying at San Francisco
State University. On a Sunday, September 11 1977, she booked
a study session in the J. Paul Leonard Library basement which was open until 11 pm. At 6pm she left her dorm and headed towards
the library. She never returned to her dorm that night. When her roommate awoke the following morning
and saw that Jenny hadn’t returned to the dorm and her bed had not been slept in, she
reported her missing. 3 hours later, a professor at the university
discovered her nude body in the reading room on the fourth floor of the library. Her clothes and books were found near her
body. She had been sexually assaulted and severely
beaten on the head. She had also received multiple stab wounds
to the heart and chest. There were several broken pieces of furniture
in the room which indicated a struggle had taken place. During the investigation, it was found that
Jenny could not have entered the reading room on her own as it would have been locked at
around 5pm on Sunday. Only a key or coded card could open it. About 200 school staff had keys and about
1200 faculty members had coded cards to unlock that particular door. Out of all the possible suspects only 2 were
ever questioned; a campus security guard and a faculty member. But both were never charged due to lack of
any evidence. Some people theorised that “Zodiac Killer”
was the culprit. There have been no leads or suspects in the
case and it remains unsolved for more than 40 years. Tristan Brübach Tristan Brubach was born in 1984 in Frankfurt,
Germany. He was the only child to his parents. Tristan went to Walter Kolk Primary school
up until 5th grade after which he moved to a school in Sindlingen. Tristen grew up in difficult conditions. His mother who was a drug addict committed
suicide when her son was only ten years old. Tristan and his father continued to live in
Frankfurt with Tristan’s grandmother soon moving in with them to look after the young
boy. Tristan was described as a shy but very independent. He spent his time playing video games and
tending to his pet rabbit. When he wasn’t inside, he would spend his
time walking around his neighbourhood all by himself even though the area they lived
at was known to be rough. During his preteen years, Tristen started
to rebel. He even began smoking cigarettes in an effort
to fit in with older children. However, he was still bullied by other children
in the neighbourhood. On 26 March 1998, Tristan woke up with a backpain
and asked his father if he could visit a doctor, but his father told him to go to school first. Tristan would go to school that morning at
around 9am after hanging out with a friend outside the school premises. Later, in the day he asked his teacher if
he could leave early to see a doctor as his back was hurting. He was granted permission and left his school
at around 1:30 pm. Tristan was last seen alive at Bruno-Asch-Anlage
– a park in front of Frankfurt-Höchst railway station – at 3:20 pm. His body would be discovered by his fellow
classmates on their way back home. They returned to the school to tell their
teachers and the police were informed at 5:00 pm. Tristan’s body was lying in a pedestrian
tunnel that runs alongside an underground section of the Liederback river. He had been severely beaten, strangled and
his neck had a deep cut. Moerover, Both his testicles, as well as flesh
from his buttocks and thighs, had been removed. The murder weapon was found next to the body. During their investigation, 3 teenagers claimed
to have seen the murder taking place from a distance. However, they did not realise it at the time. They gave a description of the suspect and
a composite sketch was made. On April 7th 1998, a man called in the Frankfurt
Police station from a payphone in Höchst train station claiming that he had murdered
Tristan. In the call he said he planned on turning
himself to the police and gave a description of his appearance, stating that he is roughly
180 centimeters tall - roughly 5'11" - and has long, black hair. He then ended the call with “arrest me”. By the time, police arrived at the train station,
they could not find anyone by that description. The description he provided was different
from the description provided by the 3 witness earlier. It is believed that the caller was trying
to cloud the investigation by providing wrong description. In March 1999, Tristan’s backpack was found
in a forest in Niedernhausen, 25 kilometres from the crime scene. Inside the backpack, police found a road map
of Germany in Czech language which did not belong to Tristan. The police consequently expanded their enquiries
to the Czech Republic and Slovakia, but no viable leads emerged. In October 1999 an unknown person was digging
1.2 Meters deep into Tristans grave at night. The coffin was not opened. He was never seen, there were no witnesses
but police think he was disturbed while digging and therefore left. In 2000, all males between 15-45 who lived
or commuted near the vicinity of the murder were voluntarily asked to give their fingerprints. And more 99% of men in the area complied. Despite investigating several person of interest
and large scale investigation, his case remains unsolved.
