🚨 SHE WAS “BECCA DOE” FOR 35 YEARS — UNTIL COLLEGE STUDENTS HELPED GIVE HER NAME BACK 🚨 For more than three decades, nobody knew who she was. The young woman known only as “Becca Doe” has finally been identified as 18-year-old Becca Mallekoote, ending a mystery that stretched back to 1991. Becca was found dead inside an Albuquerque motel room after traveling there with a man who was later interviewed by police. Her death was ruled a suicide, but despite years of investigation involving local police and the FBI, her identity remained unknown. Everything changed when students and staff at Ramapo College’s Investigative Genetic Genealogy Center joined the case. Using DNA analysis, genealogy databases, and family tree research, the students worked alongside law enforcement to trace possible relatives connected to the unidentified woman. Within days of receiving DNA matches in early 2026, the Ramapo team identified Becca as a potential match. Authorities later confirmed her identity through family DNA testing on what would have been her 53rd birthday. The Ramapo program has now helped identify 24 previously unidentified people since launching in 2022 — showing how a group of students helped solve a cold case that had remained unanswered for 35 years. #ColdCase #BeccaDoe #TrueCrime #BreakingNews #Justice Source: USA TODAY | Albuquerque Police Department | Ramapo College

PLEASE PLEASE KEEP YOUR CHILDREN SAFE‼️ OHIO MAN ACCUSED OF GROOMING TEENS ACROSS MULTIPLE STATES FOR YEARS An Ohio man is now facing federal charges that could send him to prison for life after investigators say he spent up to two years targeting young girls online. Authorities accuse 37-year-old Mark Chandler of Mount Orab of grooming at least five girls — all around 14 years old — and bribing them with Visa gift cards in exchange for sexually explicit images and videos. The investigation began after a California father reported his daughter had been communicating with Chandler since she was 14. Investigators say Chandler used apps including Snapchat, TikTok, Roblox, and Signal to contact victims across multiple states. Court records allege he instructed girls to delete conversations and even threatened one victim with death if she reported him. Federal agents later uncovered additional victims in Texas, Michigan, Wisconsin, Indiana, and other states. Chandler now faces federal charges including sexual exploitation of children, coercion and enticement, and receipt of child pornography. ⚠️ Prosecutors say the potential sentence ranges from decades in prison to life. #BreakingNews #OhioCrime #ChildPredator #TrueCrime #Justice Source: Federal court records | Department of Homeland Security

VIRAL DOORDASH CASE TAKES TURN — DRIVER NOW FACING FELONY CHARGES New York — The DoorDash driver who went viral for recording a nude customer is now in court, and the narrative has shifted. Olivia Henderson, 23, admitted she looked inside a home during a delivery and saw a man asleep on his couch without pants. Instead of leaving, she recorded him and posted the video online, where it quickly spread. She later claimed she was sexually assaulted and said she was fired for speaking out. But DoorDash says she was removed for violating policy by filming a customer inside their home. Investigators found no evidence supporting her SA claim. Instead, they determined she recorded a man inside his own home, where there was a clear expectation of privacy. Police also noted the man was not visible from the doorway—you had to look inside to see him. The man told police he had been drinking, passed out, and doesn’t remember ordering food. He denies intentionally exposing himself. A grand jury has now moved forward with charges. Henderson is facing a felony count of unlawful surveillance and a misdemeanor for sharing the video. She has pleaded not guilty and is due back in court in June. #BreakingNews #TrueCrime #CrimeUpdate #CourtCase #Justice #Doordash Source: Court records / Law enforcement reports
