    291: Dorothy Mayfield
    Just after midnight on September 13, 1990, a security company in Lexington, South Carolina, received an alarm alert from 5037 Sunset Boulevard. Attempts to contact the home’s occupants failed, prompting police to investigate. What they found inside was a horrifying scene that would haunt the town for years. In a place built on tradition and close ties, the crime raised profound questions of justice, family, and forgiveness.

    290: Jason Foreman
    It was a peaceful day on Shaeffer Street, where the quiet hum of daily life filled the air in this close-knit, working-class neighborhood of Peace Dale, Rhode Island. Families chatted on porches, children played outside, and everyone went about their routines—until the unsettling news broke. Young Jason Foreman was missing. Neighbors quickly set aside their tasks, joining together to search the streets, comb nearby parks, and hold onto hope. Little did they know, the answers lay closer than they could imagine.

    In December 1990, families across Utah were busy preparing for Christmas, wrapping presents and decorating their homes.

    287: Maire Rankin
    As families across the world were gathering for Christmas morning in 2008, a concerned son-in-law in Newry, Northern Ireland, was trying to reach his elderly mother-in-law. She hadn’t been answering her phone, and worry had set in. Deciding to check on her in person, he made his way to her home on Dublin Road. But when he stepped into her quiet house, he was met with a sight so horrific it would haunt him—and the close-knit community—for years to come.
