Wolfgang Knoll was a man who went missing from Holzminden, Germany in February 1997.
Wolfgang lived in Neuhaus, a district of Holzminden, for only a short time. He was in prison for several years, for what reason is not published.
For a short time Wolfgang had a girlfriend, with whom he maintained a good relationship even after the relationship ended. He also had a good contact with his probation officer, who took care of him after his time in prison.
Wolfgang suffered from hepatitis C and was therefore to be treated at the hospital in Göttingen. A friend wanted to drive him there, but Wolfgang categorically refused without explanation.
Wolfgang disappeared sometime after February 23, 1997 when he was last seen by a friend. He was not reported missing until April 14, 1997, when friends and acquaintances assumed he was in the hospital. Important medication was left behind in his apartment.

Ken Estes - Wichita Falls
On Tuesday, April 10, 1979, a widespread and destructive outbreak of severe weather impacted areas near the Red River between Oklahoma and Texas. Thunderstorms developed over West and North Central Texas during the day within highly unstable atmospheric conditions following the northward surge of warm and moist air into the region, producing large hail, strong winds, and multiple tornadoes. At least 22 tornadoes were documented on April 10, of which two were assigned an F4 rating on the Fujita scale; four of the tornadoes caused fatalities.
The severe weather event was widely observed by scientific instruments due to its serendipitous occurrence during a NASA field campaign. Later studies referred to the tornado outbreak as the Red River Valley Tornado Outbreak, and in the areas affected the day came to be known as Terrible Tuesday.

Ken Estes - Nurtered by Negatives
A photograph of the Alto tornado as it approached the south of Kokomo.
For several days, the U.S. Weather Bureau had been tracking a large, complex storm system moving toward the middle of the country from the Pacific Northwest. Strong thunderstorms erupted across parts of the Ozarks on Saturday afternoon and evening, eventually producing several tornadoes in Missouri and Arkansas. The most intense tornado struck Conway, AR as a slender but violent F4, tearing a narrow, block-long path through a residential area and killing six people.

Latex Priest - Metal Man
While reports of alien encounters seem to be a dime a dozen, there are very few photographs of what eyewitnesses purport to be actual extra-terrestrial beings… this case is one of those rare exceptions, and, to make matters even more intriguing, pictures were taken by none other than the police chief who was sent to investigate a UFO landing.
“It looked like his head and neck were kind of made together… he was real bright, something like rubbing mercury on nickel, but just as smooth as glass-different angles give different lighting… when I saw him standing in the middle of the road I immediately stopped the car and asked if he was a foreigner, but no sound came out of his mouth.”

Squadriglia del Terrore - One of the Good Ones
Christopher Jordan Dorner (June 4, 1979 – February 12, 2013) was a former officer of the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) who, beginning on February 3, 2013, committed a series of killings against the LAPD in Orange County, Los Angeles County, Riverside County and San Bernardino County in the U.S. state of California. The victims were law enforcement officers and the daughter of a retired police captain. Dorner killed four people and wounded three others. On February 12, Dorner killed himself after a shootout with the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department deputies in the San Bernardino Mountains.
A manifesto posted by Dorner on social media declared "unconventional and asymmetric warfare" upon the LAPD, their families and their associates unless the department admitted publicly he was fired in retaliation for reporting excessive force.

Heartland - Congo, My Country
Patrice Émery Lumumba as a Congolese politician and independence leader who served as the first prime minister of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (then known as the Republic of the Congo) from June until September 1960, following the May 1960 election. He was the leader of the Congolese National Movement (MNC) from 1958 until his execution in January 1961. Ideologically an African nationalist and pan-Africanist, he played a significant role in the transformation of the Congo from a colony of Belgium into an independent republic.
Shortly after Congolese independence in June 1960, a mutiny broke out in the army, marking the beginning of the Congo Crisis. After a coup, Lumumba attempted to escape to Stanleyville to join his supporters who had established a new anti-Mobutu state called the Free Republic of the Congo. Lumumba was captured en route by state authorities under Joseph-Désiré Mobutu, sent to the State of Katanga and, with the help of Belgian partisans, tortured and executed by the separatist Katangan authorities of Moïse Tshombe. He was seen as a martyr for the pan-African movement. In 2002, Belgium formally apologised for its role in the execution.

Silver Dove - Catch My Agony
BODY PLAY by Fakir Musafar
It started in earnest the night I lashed myself against the coal bin wall. I
was seventeen then. I'd fasted for two days- reduced myself to an
emaciated robot by dancing for hours with ninety-five pounds of logging
chain wrapped around my legs, arms and torso. I was seeking an ex-
perience, a happening.,that no other human being I knew had ever had.
Even if it meant death.

Latex Priest - Waikiki
Joseph Sigel of Bellevue, Washington, took it June 18, 1959 in Waikiki, Hawaii, the same day that the blue book "unkown" case 6400 happened at Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
The original is a color photograph. Saucer appears to have rounded top, and twinkling lights at bottom, giving window effect. Sent to Project Blue Book team. It was evaluated as sun glare on lens, though from shadows on shore sun seems to be at camera's rear.
Nevertheless, the photograph has been discussed at the UFO symposium for the Congressional Hearings of 1968 by Dr. Robert N. Sheppard, who pointed out possible similarities with other UFO photographs.

FFH - Make Them Understand
Cover is 7-year-old Sherrice Iverson, killed in Primadonna Resort and Casino in Primm, Nevada, on May 25, 1997.
The case gained notoriety in part due to the killer's friend, David Cash Jr., seeing the crime in progress and doing
nothing to stop it, and debate as to how he should be prosecuted for his role in the murder. He never was and never
admitted guilt.
