Hae Min Lee

**Hae Min Lee** (Korean: **이해민**; October 15, 1980 - January 13, 1999) was a Korean-American high school student who was susected to be murdered by her ex-boyfriend, Adnan Masud Syed.

## Background

Hae Min Lee was born in South Korea in 1980 and emigrated with her mother Youn Kim and her brother Young Lee to the United States in 1992 to live with her grandparents. Lee attended the magnet program at Woodlawn High School near Baltimore, Maryland. She was an athlete who played lacrosse and field hockey.

While their relationship was kept a secret because of both religious and cultural differences, classmates Syed and Lee dated in 1998, and broke up in December of that year.

## Events

Lee disappeared on January 13, 1999. Her family reported her missing after she failed to pick up her younger cousin from daycare around 3:15 p.m. Lee had attended Woodlawn High School that day and had been seen by several people leaving the campus at the end of the school day.

Baltimore police immediately began investigating her disappearance. On that day, officers called various friends of Lee to try to find her. They reached Adnan Syed, who was a former boyfriend, early around 6:30 p.m. that evening; he said the last time he saw her was around the time classes ended at school. At 1:30 a.m., they reached her boyfriend, who said he had not seen her that day. On February 6, a dog-led search was conducted around Woodlawn High School.

On February 9, Lee's partially buried body was discovered by a passerby in Leakin Park in Baltimore. Police attention became focused on the person who reported finding the body.

On February 12, 1999, the Baltimore City Police Homicide Division received an anonymous phone call suggesting that the investigators should focus on Lee's ex-boyfriend and classmate, Adnan Syed. One of Syed's friends told the police that Syed had expressed intentions of killing Lee and stated that he had helped Syed bury Lee's body after Syed confessed to killing her on January 13.

One of Syed's friends told the police that Syed had expressed intentions of killing Lee and stated that he had helped Syed bury Lee's body after Syed confessed to killing her on January 13.

## Aftermath

On February 25, 2000, the jury found Syed guilty of first degree murder, kidnapping, false imprisonment, and robbery. Syed was sentenced to life in prison plus 30 years.

Syed maintains his innocence and has appealed his conviction many times.

Prosecutors from Baltimore investigated Syed's case, declaring that new evidence they uncovered undermined Syed's conviction. They filed a motion on September 15, 2022, to vacate his conviction, citing *Brady* violations from prosecutors who worked on the case decades ago. On September 19, Circuit Court Judge Melissa Phinn vacated Syed's conviction. He was released from prison the same day.

Adriana Donato

**Adriana Donato** (October 21, 1991 – August 24, 2012) was 20 years old when she was murdered in 2012 by her ex-boyfriend in Melbourne, Australia.

## Events

### Life

Adriana Donato was born on October 21, 1991 to Giuseppe and Grace Donato. She attended Penleigh and Essendon Grammar in Melbourne, Australia where she met James Stoneham. They dated until they broke up in December 2011.

In August 2012, Adriana was a 20-year-old student of environmental science at the University of Melbourne. She was also planning a big holiday to Europe. She planned to first visit family in Italy and also do an intensive language course there, then fly to Berlin to meet up with her best friend for New Year's Eve.

### James Stoneham

Meanwhile, Adriana's ex-boyfriend James Stoneham had begun telling his friends he wanted to kill her. He even showed one of his friends the knife he intended to stab her with. None of his friends contacted police.

Stoneham had severe depression and had attempted suicide in the past. He'd told a doctor a day before Adriana's death that he had no thoughts of hurting anyone.

### R v. Stoneham

Stoneham was tried for the murder of Adriana in 2013 at the Supreme Court of Victoria. In a pre-sentencing hearing, Adriana's mother Grace told the court, "Christmases and birthdays will never be the same again. Adriana was very caring, loving, and thoughtful, and always ready and willing to help out others. She had a beautiful soul and an infectious smile. Nothing was ever too much trouble for her, as she had a happy-go-lucky attitude to life."

Adriana's father Giuseppe told the court, "Adriana could immediately see her place in the world, as an environmental scientist helping nature recover from mankind's influence. What a fantastic future it would have been."

Stoneham was sentenced on November 29, 2013 to 19 years with a non-parole period of 14 and a half years. His earliest possible release would be in 2028.

The judge presiding over the case, Justice Michael Croucher, wiped tears from his eyes and appeared to become overcome with emotion as he sentenced Stoneham. He called Adriana's death a "particular serious and sinister example of murder," and said of Stoneham, "He has done a horrible thing and must be punished accordingly."

In the courtroom, dozens of Adriana's family and friends were there as a show of support.

Adrianne Reynolds

**Adrianne Reynolds** (September 12, 1988 – January 21, 2005) was a 16-year-old American girl murdered by two of her best friends in East Moline, Illinois in 2005.

## Events

On the afternoon of January 21, 2005, Sarah invited Adrianne to join her, Cory, and another friend Sean McKitrick for lunch at Taco Bell; When they arrived there, Sarah and Adrianne reportedly began fighting, Sean told Sarah to stop but she told him if he didn't like it then he should leave, and he immediately left. In the parking lot of Taco Bell, Cory held down Adrianne while Sarah strangled her with a belt.

After the murder, Sarah and Cory took Adrianne's body to Sarah's grandparents' farm in Aledo, Illinois, where they tried to burn it with gasoline. When it failed to burn after several hours, they recruited Nathan Gaudet, a 16-year-old boy from Moline, to help dismember the body. Nathan used his grandfather's handsaw to remove Adrianne's head and arms and placed them in a garbage bag. The three teenagers ate lunch at McDonald's, then later disposed of the garbage bag at the Black Hawk State Historic Site.

Adrianne's parents reported her missing after she failed to show up to work at a nearby Checkers restaurant. Authorities were led to Adrianne's remains a few days later on January 26, 2005 by Cory Gregory.

Elias Salupeto Pena

**Elias Salupeto Pena** (April 9, 1952 - November 2, 1992) served as the representative of The National Union for the Total Independence of Angola (UNITA), an anti-Communist rebel group that fought against The People's Movement for the Liberation of Angola (MPLA) in the Angolan Civil War, to the Joint Military and Political Commission.

## Background

Pena was a distant relative of UNITA leader Jonas Savimbi and a senior advisor to Savimbi.

## Events

In 1992, after decades of war between UNITA and the governing MPLA, the first Presidential elections were scheduled. José Eduardo dos Santos officially received 49.57% of the vote and UNITA leader Jonas Savimbi won 40.6%. Because no candidate received 50% or more of the vote, election law dictated a second round of voting between the top two contenders.

Savimbi, along with many other election observers, said the election had been neither free nor fair. But he sent Chitunda, then Vice President of UNITA, and Elias Salupeto Pena, a UNITA senior advisor, to Luanda to negotiate the terms of the second round.

The election process broke down on October 31 when government troops in Luanda attacked UNITA. Civilians, using guns they had received from police a few days earlier, conducted house-by-house raids with the Rapid Intervention Police, killing and detaining hundreds of UNITA supporters. The government took civilians in trucks to the Camama cemetery and Morro da Luz ravine, shot them, and buried them in mass graves.

On November 2, 1992, assailants attacked Pena's convoy, pulling him and another UNITA official from their car and shooting both of them in their faces.

## Aftermath

State-run television displayed the bodies of Chitunda and Pena. To this date, their bodies have not been returned to their families for burial and their whereabouts have not been released by the Angolan government.
François Darlan

**Jean Louis Xavier François Darlan** (August 7, 1881 - December 24, 1942) was a French admiral and political figure. He was assassinated Fernand Bonnier de La Chapelle.

## Backstory

Darlan was Commander-in-Chief of the French Navy at the beginning of World War II. After France's armistice with Germany in June 1940, Darlan served in Philippe Pétain's Vichy regime as Minister of Marine, and in February 1941 he took over as Vice-President of the Council, Minister of Foreign Affairs, Minister of the Interior and Minister of National Defence, making him the de facto head of the Vichy government. In April 1942, Darlan resigned his ministries to Pierre Laval at German insistence, but retained his position as Commander-in-Chief of the French Armed Forces.

## Events

Darlan was in Algiers when the Allies invaded French North Africa in November 1942. Allied commander Dwight D. Eisenhower struck a controversial deal with Darlan, recognizing him as High Commissioner of France for North and West Africa. In return, Darlan ordered all French forces in North Africa to cease resistance and cooperate with the Allies.

On the afternoon of 24 December 1942, Fernand Bonnier de La Chapelle shot Darlan in his headquarters; Darlan died a few hours later.

Bonnier de La Chapelle was a youth of 20, the son of a French journalist. He was a monarchist, and opposed to Vichy. He was involved with a royalist group that wanted to restore the pretender to the French throne, the Count of Paris.

## Aftermath

Bonnier de La Chapelle was arrested immediately, tried and convicted the next day, and executed by firing squad on 26 December.

Darlan was unpopular with the Allies – he was considered pompous, having asked Eisenhower to provide 200 Coldstream Guards and Grenadier Guards as an honor company for the commemoration of Napoleon's victory at Austerlitz. It was said that "no tears were shed" by the British over his death.

Clinton Trezise

### Body discovered

16 August 1994 (1 year, 11 months, 16 days)Lower Light, South Australia, Australia

### Killed by

John Justin Bunting

**Clinton Douglas Trezise** (December 5, 1973 - August 31, 1992) was the first known victim of the "Snowtown Murders".

## Backstory

John Justin Bunting, driven to murder by his hatred for pedophiles and homosexuals, has been described as a skilled manipulator of people and "Australia's worst serial killer". Bunting had fashioned a "rock spider wall" on a wall of a spare room in his house. The chart, created using paper notes and wool, was an interconnected web of names of people Bunting suspected to be pedophiles or homosexuals. At times Bunting would randomly select a name from the wall and call them, insinuating they were pedophiles and "would get what's coming to them".

Bunting was married to Elizabeth Harvey, mother of co-offender James Vlassakis. Bunting spent a lot of time with Vlassakis, assuming the role of a father figure. Bunting regularly communicated to Vlassakis his hatred for pedophiles and homosexuals. Vlassakis confided in Bunting that his stepbrother, Troy Youde, had molested him at the age of 13. Bunting replied by suggesting that Youde be bashed.

Bunting met Robert Wagner when he moved to Waterloo Corner Road. Wagner was living with Vanessa Lane (formerly Barry Lane) at the time; both Wagner and Lane assisted Bunting in disposing of the body of his first victim, Clinton Trezise. Wagner later assisted Bunting in the remaining ten murders.

## Events

Clinton Trezise was bashed to death with a shovel in John Bunting's living room after being invited inside for a social visit. John accused Clinton of being a paedophile and referred to him in conversations after his murder as "Happy Pants". Clinton was found buried two years after his murder in a shallow grave on 16 August 1994 at Lower Light, South Australia. It was another three years before Bunting murdered again.

## Aftermath

Initially, the body of Clinton Trezise was found at Lower Light in 1994, although no connection to Bunting was made at this time. Clinton's murder remained unsolved for some time and in 1997 he was the subject of two episodes of the Australian television show *Australia's Most Wanted*. Bunting watched an episode of the show with Vlassakis and his mother. Bunting boasted to Vlassakis, "That's my handiwork" and revealed to Vlassakis that he had murdered Trezise while living at Waterloo Corner Road, Salisbury, and that he disposed of Trezise's body in Lower Light with Wagner and Lane's assistance.

The Supreme Court trial for John Bunting began on 14 October 2002. He was convicted of eleven murders and found guilty on 8 September 2003. He was sentenced to 11 life sentences without the possibility of parole and is incarcerated at Yatala Labour Prison in Adelaide.

Abdelkader Hachani

**Abdelkader Hachani** (December 26, 1956 - November 22, 1999) was a leading figure and founding member of the Islamic Salvation Front (or FIS), an Algerian Islamic party. Hachani was trained as a petrochemical engineer. Within FIS, he was considered a member of the Djaz'ara (Algerianist) wing.

## Background

On 30 June 1991, Hachani became the party's effective leader (after four days of contested leadership by Mohamed Said.) He led the party to victory in the National Assembly elections of December 1991; shortly afterwards, he was arrested on 22 January 1992.

As the Algerian Civil War raged, he was released in July 1997. The court handed him a sentence of five years, which he had already served waiting for the trial. He played a prominent role in negotiating the Islamic Salvation Army's (AIS) cease-fire of October 1997, but condemned President Abdelaziz Bouteflika's Civil Harmony Act.

## Events

Hachani was shot by an assassin in the waiting room of a dental clinic in the Bab El Oued district of Algiers on 22 November 1999, and subsequently died in hospital.

## Aftermath

In December, the government announced that it had arrested Fouad Boulemia, a GIA member, for the murder; Boulemia was convicted in a controversial trial, sentenced to death, and then released.

Bob Bosley

**Robert Jeffrey "Bob" Bosley** was a 42-year-old man who was murdered by his wife, Amy.

## Case

Amy shot Bob while he was lying down in his bed asleep, and then staged a crime scene, attempting to make it look like an intruder had broken into the home and shot her husband while looking to rob them. It was later found out that the reason Amy killed Bob was so that he wouldn't find out about her stealing money from the U.S. Government while handling the family's taxes. She had apparently stolen over a million dollars. Though in prison, she has never revealed the true location of the money.

Edward Byrne

**Edward Richard Byrne** (February 21, 1966 - February 26, 1988) was a 22-year-old NYPD police officer who was murdered in the line of duty.

## Backstory

Byrne's father had also been an NYPD officer. Byrne had joined the NYPD on July 15, 1986, and was stationed in the 103rd Precinct in Jamaica, Queens. Prior to joining the NYPD, Byrne was in the New York City Transit Police.

## Events

Around 3:30 a.m on February 26, 1988, Byrne was sitting in his marked patrol car on 107th Avenue and Inwood Street in the South Jamaica section of Queens in New York City. He was assigned to keep an eye on the house of the local Guyanese immigrant Arjune, who had repeatedly called the police to report on illegal activities on his street. The house had been previously firebombed on two occasions and the owner repeatedly threatened. Despite the recent violence and an ongoing crime wave overtaking South Queens, Byrne was assigned to the post alone.

As Byrne sat in his car another car pulled up beside him. Two men exited, and one of them knocked on the passenger side window of Byrne's cruiser while David McClary crept up on the driver's side and shot Byrne in the head five times with a .38 caliber pistol. Two other men acted as lookouts. Byrne later died at the hospital.

## Aftermath

The murder prompted nationwide outrage. US President Ronald Reagan personally called the Byrne family to offer condolences. George H. W. Bush carried Byrne's badge with him on his campaign for president in 1988.

The four killers were identified as Philip Copeland, Todd Scott, Scott Cobb, and David McClary. All four were apprehended within a week of the murder and were eventually convicted. Copeland, Scott, and Cobb were convicted after a trial of murder in the second degree and criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree. McClary was convicted later as the shooter in a separate trial of murder in the second degree and criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree.

All four were sentenced to 25 years to life by Queens Supreme Court Justice Thomas A. Demakos, who had presided over the trials. Cobb, in a videotaped confession that was played at trial, provided graphic details of the killing, told how the participants had bragged of it afterward in the aftermath, and indicated that the killing had been ordered from jail by the drug dealer Howard "Pappy" Mason, the leader of their gang. Mason was sentenced to life in prison in 1994 for drug racketeering and for ordering Byrne's murder.
