Unsolved Mysteries Volume 3 has concluded, and fans were once again thrilled by cases involving paranormal experiences, puzzling homicides, and perturbing missing person reports, each one giving them a chance to solve a mystery and bring solace and justice to loved ones. However, the hit Netflix revival of the popular investigative series has left more questions than answers, leaving fans scratching their heads.
While there's no shortage of clues, vital information has been left out of some instances, while others have a wealth of narrative threads with no cohesive through-line. The location of a murder weapon, the motivation of a killer, and the speculation of a victim's whereabouts are all questions fans have been pondering since Unsolved Mysteries Volume 3 rolled the credits.
Why Didn't Tiffany's Friends Agree To Be Interviewed?
Fans were left to decide whether Tiffany Valiante's death was a suicide or a homicide, bolstered by impassioned declarations of her parents that the rising high school athlete wouldn't have ended her life just as she was about to attend college. Testimonials that might have informed fans' decision could have come from Tiffany's friends, but none of them agreed to be interviewed.
Tiffany's state of mind was at odds with what her parents stated; from their perspective, she wasn't depressed and had everything to live for, but there was evidence of her fighting with her parents over credit card usage, financial responsibilities, and a recent breakup with her girlfriend. Why didn't Tiffany's friends come forward to give a more accurate portrait of Tiffany, rather than the biased view of her parents?
What Happened During The 24-Second Phone Call Before Tiffany's Death?
Somewhere between Tiffany leaving her house at 9:28 pm and being struck by a passing train about two hours later, she received a phone call. The call came from a friend who had accused her of purchasing items with her credit card without her permission and lasted exactly 24 seconds. What happened during that call, and did it have anything to do with Tiffany's death?
Because none of Tiffany's friends (including the caller) agreed to be interviewed for the episode "Mystery at Mile Marker 45," fans will never know what was said on that call, and it remains knowledge that Tiffany took to her urn with her. It might very well hold the key to her state of mind that night and escalated feelings of hopelessness that led to a split-second decision Tiffany could never take back.
How Has Tammy Been Able To Evade Authorities For Years?
Several years after David Carter's family learned that his girlfriend Tammy Williams was involved in his death, she remains at large. The former travel agent shot him in the head while he slept, cut his body into three pieces, and disposed of them wrapped in blankets and suitcases along a nearby highway. Authorities even detained her at one point, but didn't have enough evidence to convict her and now she's in the wind.
How has Williams been able to remain at large for over three years without someone recognizing her and turning her in? Given her experience as a travel agent and penchant for wearing wigs, it's possible that she's able to evade capture by constantly moving around and changing her appearance, but it's also likely that she is being aided by family members, which makes the case even more unsettling. Hopefully her capture will be part of a major case update since the episode aired.
Did The Mob Really Stage Buffalo Jim's Death?
Buffalo Jim was a popular local celebrity in Las Vegas at the time of his death, known for detailing the cars of the rich and famous and hosting his own professional wrestling events. He was found deceased in the room of a local Motel 6 hours after he had checked in with a mystery woman. Traces of cocaine were found in his system, and the cause of death was determined to be complications from an overdose.
Jim's family not only doesn't believe he would have used cocaine but also highly suspect that a local racketeer, irate that Buffalo Jim indirectly caused his former arrest, had something to do with luring him to Motel 6 and staging the overdose. Could the mob have had something to do with Buffalo Jim's death?
Did Josh Guimond Meet Someone Online?
For reasons unknown to any of his friends, Joshua Guimond got up from the card table at a party and walked out, making it halfway between the apartment where the party was held and the college campus he attended before he suddenly vanished without a trace.
Guimond was found to have an extensive online history of interacting with men and women, so is it possible that he agreed to meet someone in person from one of his message boards, an it resulted in foul play? Hopefully, this is one of Unsolved Mystery's creepiest cases that can eventually be closed.
Why Are So Many UFO Sightings In Michigan?
In 1994, residents of Muskegon Michigan witness an unsettling sight in the night sky; flashing lights and what appear to be an aerial objects floating over their houses and backyards. A local weather station reports these same objects on their radar equipment, and it becomes one of the most famous UFO events of 20th century.
At one point, it's mentioned that of all the United States, Michigan has the most reports of UFO sightings. Why? Why do what could potentially be objects containing visitors from the unknown choose Michigan to visit? It's interesting to ponder what they would find interesting about the state.
What Happened To The Shot Gun Connected To Patrick's Death?
By all accounts, Patrick Mullins seemed to have a blessed life; he had a happy marriage of many decades, children, and was close to retiring from his job as a librarian at the local high school. Yet for unknown reasons he took his boat onto the river near his house, traveled out into Tampa Bay, and shot himself in the head with a shot gun. Or did he? The mystery has all the hallmarks of one of the best Unsolved Mysteries episodes.
Patrick never purchased a shot gun, and no shot gun was found near his body. The recoil of firing it should have either kicked it back into the boat or sent it sinking down to the bottom of the river, but the firearm was never recovered. The absence of the shot gun at least presents the option that someone else could have fired it at him and disposed of the murder weapon somewhere else.
Did Damon Have Something To Do With Patrick's Death?
Damon was a friend of the Mullens family who began to act erratically on the anniversary of Patrick's death. His grief seemed disproportionate to even Patrick's wife and children, prompting them to wonder if he knew something they didn't about what happened to the kindly librarian. As it turned out, there were other signs as well, making this one of the scariest episodes of Unsolved Mysteries.
Patrick's boat was recovered before his body was found, and it had a red stripe of paint on the side, as though his boat had contacted with the side of another object. His body also had an intricate knot tied around its waist, the other end attached to a small anchor. Damon's boat had a red stripe, he was known to tie specific knots, and given the way he reacted to Patrick's debt, it's reasonable to assume he had something to do with it or knew who did.
Why Did Ahmed Fly To The Turkey/Syrian Border?
After Ahmed divorced his wife, he began taking survival courses and going to shooting ranges. Several months later, he abducted his children and absconded to the border of Turkey and Syria, only choosing to contact her a year later with news that the children were safe on a farm near his parents in Egypt and enjoying the rustic life.
Assuming this is true, why did Ahmed take his children to the Turkey/Syrian border and then back to Egypt? Did he remain with his children, or did he become caught up in the war on the border occurring at the time?
Will Ahmed's Children Try To Contact Their Mother?
Given that Ahmed abducted his children in 2014, by the time the episode aired they would be 19 and almost 17. They might eventually have access to social media or television and see themselves featured in the very same Unsolved Mysteries Volume 3 episode.
Why haven't they contacted their mother? Has Ahmed changed that narrative? Have they become radicalized in some way? They would be old enough to remember their former life and living with her in the United States, so hopefully they'll be able to do some investigating themselves.
