On August 22, 1990, Cheryl Henry and Andy Atkinson left a Houston nightclub and vanished. Their white car was later found abandoned at the end of a dark dead end street known locally as Lovers Lane. Inside the vehicle were broken glass, blood, and Cheryl’s belongings, but no sign of the couple.

Hours later, police made a horrifying discovery in a nearby wooded field. Cheryl had been sexually assaulted, bound, and murdered. Andy was found a short distance away, tied to a tree and killed. Investigators believe Cheryl was murdered first, forcing Andy to hear what was happening before his own death.

The crime scene contained disturbing and unexplained details. Golf balls and a club taken from Andy’s trunk were placed near Cheryl’s body. A twenty dollar bill lay nearby. Balloons were found hanging from tree branches. Despite FBI profiling, early DNA testing, and years of investigation, no suspect was identified.

Years later, DNA linked the Lovers Lane murders to a sexual assault that occurred two months earlier in Houston. The surviving victim described an attacker whose behavior suggested someone familiar with security or military style discipline. A confirmed DNA profile exists, but no arrest has ever been made.

More than three decades later, the murders of Cheryl Henry and Andy Atkinson remain unsolved, with hope resting on new forensic advances that could finally reveal the person responsible.

On May 10, 1979, six-year-old Rebecca “Becky” Kunash went to sleep in her Merritt Island, Florida home with a night light glowing beside her bed. Sometime after midnight, while her parents slept just feet away, a man removed her window screen, entered her bedroom, and abducted her.

By morning, Becky was gone. Her body was found hours later in a nearby canal.

Investigators quickly focused on Bryan Jennings, a twenty-year-old Marine home on leave who had been seen in the neighborhood that night. Fingerprints, footprints, and his own confession tied him directly to the crime. Jennings admitted to taking Becky from her bed, sexually assaulting her, and killing her before dumping her body in the water.

Jennings was convicted and sentenced to death, but his conviction was overturned and retried multiple times over the years. In 1986, a final death sentence was upheld. For Becky’s family, justice came slowly and painfully.

Nearly forty six years after the crime, Bryan Jennings was executed by lethal injection on November 13, 2025. He offered no final statement. This episode explores how a quiet night turned into a lifelong nightmare and the decades-long road to accountability for one of Florida’s most heartbreaking child abduction cases.

Emmy winning actor and director Timothy Busfield is facing serious criminal charges in New Mexico following allegations involving two child actors he worked with on the Fox series The Cleaning Lady. Prosecutors have charged Busfield with two counts of criminal sexual misconduct against a minor and one count of child abuse. He has denied all allegations and maintains his innocence.

According to court documents, investigators allege Busfield encouraged the twins to call him Uncle Tim, gave them gifts, and spent time with their family outside of filming. Prosecutors say he used moments of confusion on set to isolate the boys. One child reportedly disclosed that inappropriate contact began when he was seven years old, describing incidents that allegedly occurred on a bedroom set after filming paused. The second twin reported similar discomfort but said he did not speak up at the time.

Authorities cite therapy notes, medical evaluations, behavioral changes, and witness statements as part of the evidence supporting the charges. Prosecutors have also referenced prior allegations spanning decades, though none previously resulted in criminal convictions.

Busfield surrendered to authorities in January 2026 and was ordered held without bail. His defense team says the accusations are retaliatory after the children were written out of the show and claims he passed an independent polygraph test.

As the case moves forward, the court will decide whether the evidence supports the charges. Until then, the allegations remain unproven, and the outcome could have major implications for accountability and child safety in the entertainment industry.
