    The Murder of Dr. Tanya Kopric, Three Disappearances, Three Decades, One Unsolved Episode.

    In this breakdown of Unsolved Mysteries Season 3, Episode 21, we dive into four haunting stories—each one shaped by love, loss, and secrets the truth never fully exposed. First, we examine the brutal murder of Dr. Tanya Kopric, a devoted physician whose American dream ended in a Kansas City parking lot. Police quickly identified her ex-fiancé, pharmacy student Richard Bocklage, as the shooter—but he slipped away, leaving sightings across Canada and questions that still linger. Next, we revisit the mysterious disappearance of Army Lieutenant Paul Whipkey, a Cold War pilot who vanished after exposure to atomic testing. Declared a deserter, surrounded by classified files, Whipkey’s story raises the possibility of a CIA recruitment, a secret mission, and a staged death in the sands of Death Valley. Then we shift to a heartbreaking family story: a young mother in the 1930s forced by poverty to leave her toddler with trusted friends—only for county officials to take him without warning and place him for adoption. His sister Gwen still searches for the brother stolen by circumstance. Finally, we explore the strange disappearance of millionaire contractor Jim Rice in the Virgin Islands, a man who may never have boarded his flight home—and who may have met foul play before anyone realized he was gone. In this episode we cover:The murder of Dr. Tanya Kopric & fugitive suspect Richard BocklageCold War secrecy & the disputed “desertion” of Lt. Paul WhipkeyA Depression-era adoption tragedy that separated siblings for lifeThe vanishing of St. Croix millionaire Jim RiceKey clues, witness statements, theories, and the unresolved questions still haunting these cases Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unsolved-couple--6745609/support. 👉 Support the show: coff.ee/unsolvedcouple 📧 Email: unsolvedcouplepod@gmail.com 📱 Facebook: Unsolved Couple Podcast 📸 Instagram: @unsolvedcouplepod Original artwork by @evelinejones3 * We’re here to share the stories and spark curiosity, but remember—always do your own digging!

    The Torso Murders & A Mother Accused

    In this episode of the Unsolved Couple Podcast, we dive into one of the darkest chapters ever featured on Unsolved Mysteries: the case that haunted the legendary Eliot Ness long after he took down Al Capone. In 1930s Cleveland, a serial killer stalked the forgotten corners of Kingsbury Run — dismembering victims, taunting investigators, and leaving even “The Untouchable” himself powerless. Despite surveillance, raids, and even burning an entire shantytown to the ground, the Torso Slayer was never brought to justice. But this episode doesn’t end there. We also revisit the heartbreaking 1989 case of baby Ryan Stallings — a medical mystery that led to accusations of poisoning, a mother’s arrest, and a desperate struggle for the truth. Was it murder… or a rare genetic disorder? Join us as we unpack:Eliot Ness’s secretive, desperate final investigationThe chilling Kingsbury Run body count — and the suspect Ness could never nameThe haunting postcards sent from a mental institutionThe Stallings family tragedy and the controversial poisoning diagnosisHow a mother’s fight for justice became one of the most debated cases in Unsolved Mysteries historyIf you grew up terrified (and obsessed) with the original series — buckle in. This one pulls you straight back into that world.

    Death in Vancouver, A UFO in Texas & A Outlaw Returns?

    We begin in Vancouver, British Columbia, with the deeply chilling case of Cindy James, a pediatric nurse who reported more than 100 incidents of stalking and violent attacks over seven years. Cindy’s death was ruled an “elaborate suicide,” yet the evidence tells a much darker story. Was she targeted by someone she knew… or was she fighting a hidden battle no one could see? Next, we head to Dayton, Texas, where two women and a young boy claim they encountered a blinding diamond-shaped craft followed by 23 military helicopters. Within hours, they suffered symptoms consistent with acute radiation exposure — symptoms that lasted the rest of their lives. Was this a secret government operation? A UFO? Or something the government still refuses to explain? Finally, we revisit the legend of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. History says they died in a Bolivian shootout… but eyewitnesses, family letters, and a mysterious man in Spokane suggest at least one outlaw made it back to the U.S. alive. Did Butch Cassidy die an old man in the American West? Three cases. Three possibilities. One truth… somewhere. https://unsolved.com/gallery/cindy-james/ https://www.melaniehack.com/ https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cindy-james/id1469338483?i=1000629601442 https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-vancouver-sun-ozzie-says-they-have-m/77580511/ https://www.voicesforjusticepodcast.com/post/murderedcindyjames https://unsolvedmysteries.fandom.com/wiki/Cindy_James Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unsolved-couple--6745609/support. 👉 Support the show: coff.ee/unsolvedcouple 📧 Email: unsolvedcouplepod@gmail.com 📱 Facebook: Unsolved Couple Podcast 📸 Instagram: @unsolvedcouplepod Original artwork by @evelinejones3 * We’re here to share the stories and spark curiosity, but remember—always do your own digging!
