Unsolved Child Murders

Eighteen American Cases, 1956-1998

De: Emily G. Thompson

Narrado por: Pamela Almand

An estimated 800,000 children are reported missing each year in the United States. Only one in 10,000 are found dead. Yet unsolved child murders are almost a daily occurrence - of nearly 52,000 juvenile homicides between 1980 and 2008, more than 20 percent remain open. Drawing on FBI reports, police and court records, and interviews with victims’ families, this book provides details and evidence for 18 unsolved cases from 1956 to 1998.

Better than I thought

I am into true crime and grabbed this book out if curiosity. I wasn't sure what to expect or if I could get through it as the title says bluntly what it is about. However I was very pleased. It covers numerous well-known cold cases with details about each case. Although gruesome details were shared at times, it was done tactfully and professionally and did not hinder the integrity of the case, victims, or their families. I also like how ilthe author listed the correct number to call for each case if anybody had any information. Very well done.

Enjoyed most of it, but...

some of these are very sad,I cried at a few.. Adam walsh was one of Henry lee Lucas"s victims I skipped that one and Ramsey one, the Ramsey one police botched the case. Other than those 2 if you like true crime this for you.

Very informative, well written and narrated.

We have a lot of sick and crazy people in the world and it is very sad that these poor children's lives were destroyed to soon.

I learned a lot from this book. I've heard a few of these stories on TV but never this much detailed info and I was very young when most of these happened.

Unfortunately, these children had to lose their life in order to save so many more.

I'm very sorry for the tragedies these families have gone through.

Sad but interesting

Loved this book and learning about the details to unsolved murders of these children. as sad as it is to hear about these young lives being brutally taken, hearing about how they have also helped countless others to be saved makes their deaths not be invain.

prayers for all the families of these precious babies.

Astonishing

Is incredible how many psychos are out there, really twisted and sick people, it’s difficult to believe that they exist.
