One unsolved mystery is the story of “The Somerton Man” in
1948. A man who was around 40 years old was found dead on a Somerton beach in
Adelaide, Australia. He carried no identification and carried a brief case.
There was evidence that he was poisoned by an unknown chemical. There are
theories that he was a spy because he was very well cleaned and groomed and all
of his tags were removed from his clothes. Theses traits are similar to that of
a spy. There was a note found in a hidden pocket of his pants. The note read
“Taman Shud,” which was part of a book of poems called The Rubaiyat by
Omar Khayyam. Taman Shud translates to “it is finished.” The book was found
near the beach and contained a phone number and a code of numbers. The code was
never figured out. This story is very interesting because there are so many
clues that no one could figure out or put together. I also was interested in
how this guy was thought to be a spy and how no one knew who he was or why he
was on the beach. The story leaves many questions unanswered, which makes it so
fascinating.
Another unsolved mystery is the crime of the Huntsville
rapist who intruded the home of Kelly Dodson of Huntsville, Alabama. The
intruder broke into her home and tried to rape her, but her brother came in and
scared off the criminal and escaped out of a window. The Dodson’s were
unfamiliar with who the intruder was and had no previous relations with him.
They family never found out who the attacker was. This is an interesting and
unique mystery because the victims became famous and rich of an Internet video
from the news casting.
