A spooky tale about how a murder was solved from the grave
I am very interested in reading about ghostly stories and
spirits etc. A couple of years ago I heard about a story which
is apparently true, about a murder which was solved from the
grave.
This happened in the UK.
A woman in her twenties always believed she had special powers
of being able to have contact with the spiritual world, however
she did not want these powers and she certianly had never told
anybody else about it. For the purpose of this article, I will
call the lady Sue.
One evening about five miles away from where Sue lived, another
young lady who I will call Lisa, was brutally murdered by
somebody she had never met before.
Sue and Lisa had never met.
As you may be aware, the police find it harder to solve murder
cases where the victim is unknown to their killer. These types
of murder are also quite rare.
Later that evening Sue was awaken by a noise in her bedroom. As
she sat up there was a woman on her bed sobbing, it was Lisa.
Sue who was strangely quite calm asked her, who she was, why she
was crying and why she was in her bedroom.
"I have just been murdered, I know you can help me"
Sue who was obviously shocked, asked how she could help her.
"I want to tell you what has happened to me and I want to
describe the killer to you. I then want you to go to the police
station tommorrow to tell them what I have told you. This will
help them to find the killer, then I will be able to rest in
peace."
Sue reluctantly agreed and Lisa disappeared.
Sue did go to the police and described the killer, telling them
many things about him, including that he had a tattoo on his arm
with the words "crazy fox" on.
The police did not take her as a serious witness, even though
they found it strange that she seemed to know so much about the
killing itself.
The murder itself went unsolved for twenty years, until a man
was arrested for drunk driving. The police took his DNA and it
was matched to the murder of Lisa.
Have a guess what he had tattoed on his arm, "crazy fox".
