6 Jane Does - Alone and Forgotten
These Jane Does haunt me even now, just as they have haunted the detectives handling their cases. These unknowns have earned the right to have their names known to the world - Not only are no names available, but also one has no face with no clue as to her identity. Background music used is "Love Is The Answer" and "Crystal Blue Persuasion".

FBI Knew of O.J. Simpson Plan in Advance
Latest News | Top Stories | News Articles: "LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Federal agents learned three weeks in advance that O.J. Simpson and a memorabilia dealer planned an operation to retrieve personal items Simpson said were stolen from him, according to FBI reports obtained Friday by The Associated Press. Dealer Thomas Riccio told FBI agents Aug. 21 that Simpson wanted to televise the operation as he confronted a collector who was peddling thousands of pieces of Simpson's memorabilia. But Riccio was not clear how the operation would unfold, and there was no mention in the report of guns that were allegedly drawn as Simpson and five other men stormed a Las Vegas hotel room. Riccio was advised to contact a lawyer before taking any action and was told that alerting the FBI would not absolve him of any potential crime, agent Linda Kline wrote of the meeting, which occurred in Los Angeles. 'I went along with O.J.'s plan,' Riccio told the AP on Friday. 'It was a self-organized sting operation. Except for the final result, with him bringing people who had guns. I knew nothing about that.'"

FBI used mafia capo to find bodies of Ku Klux Klan victims | Special reports | Guardian Unlimited
FBI used mafia capo to find bodies of Ku Klux Klan victims | Special reports | Guardian Unlimited: "The FBI recruited a mafia enforcer to help solve the slaying of three civil rights workers by the Ku Klux Klan in Mississippi in the 1960s, according to evidence provided in Brooklyn state court by a mobster's moll. In the 1988 film Mississippi Burning that recreated the events, the case was broken when the FBI brought in a black agent to put the frighteners on a Ku Klux Klan member. But Linda Schiro told the court it was her boyfriend, Gregory Scarpa, who had kidnapped a klansman, put a gun in his mouth and forced him to reveal the spot where the three had been buried. The FBI until that point had been engaged in a fruitless search for the civil rights workers, facing silence from the klansmen and the white community in general."
