At around eight o’clock on the morning of June 19, 2026, Federal Park Ranger Paul Scholtz was parking his patrol vehicle near the corner of Sixth and Market Streets in Philadelphia when he noticed a black BMW parked behind him.

Little did the Ranger know this routine encounter was about to open the door to an investigation involving multiple missing women, a deteriorating house in North Philadelphia that has been described by the media as a house of horrors, tens of thousands of videos that depicted at least two dead women , hundreds of thousands of images, vats of chemicals, fake federal credentials and questions police are still nowhere close to answering.

At around 4:30 in the morning on Thursday, June 14, 2007, police found the body of 22 year old Jennifer Kathleen Nielsen behind an AmeriKing Food Mart in Raleigh, North Carolina. Jenna was covered in blood, and had been stabbed multiple times. She was also eight and a half months pregnant with her third child. 

Her father later remembered answering the phone that night, thinking that he would get the news that his daughter had gone into labor. Instead, he got the news that Jenna - and her unborn child - were dead behind a gas station.

On August 24, 2012, a Vietnam veteran who had been staying at the Lake Lanier Club Apartments off Dawsonville Highway in Gainesville, Georgia with his daughter and grandchildren, was taking a walk through the woods behind the complex. The man liked taking nature walks, and he was also following up on a report that he had made to the apartment management about a missing manhole cover. He later told police that he wanted to see if it had been replaced yet. 

It was around 7:30 pm in the evening, and still almost  full daylight, and when the man paused near a stream bed, he saw something disturbing...something that he at first thought was a mannequin. Upon closer inspection, he realized that he was looking at a dead body. He called 911 and told them that a young lady, about 18 or 19 years old, was dead and looked like she had been dead for two or three days. 

The young woman was 16-year-old Hannah Truelove, a student at Gainesville High School. She had been missing since the night before. And even though her exact cause of death has not been revealed, police said she died a “violent death." She had been stabbed multiple times and left in the stream bed a quarter mile away from home; her flip flop was found a few yards away, tangled in some branches. 

Who killed Hannah Truelove?
