On a clear day in September 1987, Leslie Ann Pluhar headed across the Mackinac Bridge and toward a promising future. She never made it to the other side. The clues left behind only raised more questions. To this day, officials won’t admit what seems to most to be the answer: that, no, Leslie wasn’t driving erratically, but rather that maybe it’d be wise to warn motorists that crossing five miles of water more than 550 feet up in the air in a spot known for high winds can lead Mother Nature to...

A conman can only be as good as the systems that prop him up, and in the case of Richard Walter that happened to be the very system he was defrauding. Through lies and omissions, and a fake twinge of an English accent, Walter convinced the powers that be within the US Justice System that he was a subject matter expert in all things criminal, despite the fact that he had no real training or experience to speak of. Walter’s so-called ‘expert’ testimonies led to false convictions and destroyed...

We humans are made of a hodge-podge of parts that sometimes feels like they were designed by someone with a dark sense of humor. It is amazing, and frankly terrifying how little we actually do understand about the inner workings of our bodies. From vestigal twins and disappearing tumors, to x-ray vision and picking up radio waves with your teeth, its no wonder that some people believe in gods and demons. In some cases, no amount of science can explain the bizarre unknown of the human...

They witnessed scores of people dressed in the garb of the French Revolution and even claimed to have interacted with Marie Antoinette herself.
