Bob Cyphers

Who stabbed and killed Marcy Macinski? It's been 35 years and the family is still asking questions.

A family of nine, two grandparents, five young adults featuring three Cyphers boys and two daughters-in-law, and two small grandchildren, a 10-year-old boy and a 6-year-old girl, pull out of the driveway. Destination, Branson, 7 hours away.

Barbara Williams was brutally murdered in her St. Louis County home 30 years ago in a case that appeared to have plenty of evidence and only to turn ice cold.

Four decades ago on a quiet fall morning, horror rang out in our community, as four employees were gunned done at Pope’s Cafeteria, inside the West County Shopping Center. A family member of one of the victims opens her scrapbook, and her heart, as she relives her memories of that fateful day.

Detectives working the I-70 serial killer case are now closely examining a new clue.

News 4 has learned that the person identified earlier this week as the I-65 serial killer is now being looked at as a possible suspect in the I-70 murders, with a local task force scrambling to compare notes with police authorities in Indiana.

An investigator hired by the St. Louis Circuit Attorney to work the 2018 criminal case against former Missouri Governor Eric Greitens has accepted a plea deal.

It was a crisp winter Saturday morning, and Vicki Webb had only one thing on her mind: “My day started out wonderfully. I was going on vacation!” Webb remembered.

The hunt to find a serial killer continues.

For some people, deciding on their life's pursuit never ends. That would not be the case for Raymond Floyd.

On a warm summer day in 1983, Channel 4 was covering a news story at City Hall. While there, a wedding ceremony was taking place. A few wedding pictures would be a nice way to close the evening’s newscast. With that, Larry Wolff kissed his bride Denise. They rushed home to tell all their friends that they got married on television.

September 25, 1993. Some 500 days after Sarah Blessing was killed, Mary Ann Glasscock went to work at Emporium Antiques in Fort Worth, Texas. A friend went to the business later in the day and discovered Mary’s body.

In a cold case where nothing made sense about the killer or his motives, it may have been the oddest choice of all.Why did he kill in the first place? It must have just been for the thrill.

It's been almost nine years now since Gary Workes and Maurice "Bud" Karzin were murdered in their apartment. A rare homicide turned cold case for University City police, and questions left unanswered for the families.

Airplanes are sitting on tarmacs, and you can park in the front row these days at Lambert. Yet the federal government is forking over $10 billion in stimulus money to airports, even though some airports already receive government subsidies.

Larry Ankrom would spend that life at the FBI headquarters in Quantico, Virginia, specializing in behavioral science, eventually becoming chief of the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit for the western part of the United States. In layman's terms, Ankrom is an FBI profiler.

Flight 5087 landed with zero passengers, subsidized by taxpayers through the essential air service program. This empty flight cost taxpayers nearly $3,000 to operate each way. $6,000 for a round trip of none.

There have been so many senseless homicides over the years that over time, the memory fades. Years go by, and as their cases turn cold, they are often forgotten. But not this one. Not the one that was so brutal, so beyond the pale of anything human. No, this one would never be forgotten.

Finishing the job has always mattered to McCarrick, who has overseen numerous homicide investigations in his career, including Nancy Kitzmiller and the I-70 serial killer.

The legendary detective is 83 now, not that anyone would ever know it. We met to talk about cold cases in the St. Louis area, a topic nobody knows better than Joe Burgoon, having spent 44 years on the streets of St. Louis, 27 of them in homicide.

“I heard about Colorado, and at first I thought, ‘Wow!’’ Meyer said. “Especially with the grocery store. But the more I thought about it, I realized it wasn’t really the same. Colorado was an active shooter. We were gunned down execution style.”

He rode more than 41,000 races, winning more than 7,000 times. In 1979 he was the leading rider in the country, winning nearly 500 races. He also led the nation in 1981.

A three bedroom house sat at the intersection of Delmar and Whittier, roughly one mile east of the Cathedral Basilica, and one mile west of the Fox Theatre. In the early morning hours of February 10, 1959, it was about to become ground zero.

For those of you who were not alive in 1980, it's impossible for me to describe what was sweeping through America at that time.

To her friends, she was known by her middle name, Michele. And life did not begin easy, as she had life saving surgery just three days after birth. But then what a child she became.

Cathy Beltre arrived in St. Louis late this summer. Alone in a foreign land, unable to speak much English, she was up against the world. But she had no choice. Her one-year-old son Angel needed a miracle to survive.

The story begins in 1736, when Benjamin Franklin founded the Union Fire company.

Saxtown in 1874 was a tiny, close-knit collection of families trying to survive by farming the land in the midst of an economic depression.

"I remember being in third grade," Wright said. "I'm looking through some old family scrapbooks, and I see this picture of my dad. He was about 12, and he had this incredible afro! It was wild. I guess that was pretty common during his day, but I thought it looked cool. My dad is my role model, and I always wanted to look like him, so I said 'why not?' And once I started, I wasn't going to stop."

Dennis Reynolds' car was found in a snow banked ditch, doors locked, windows broken, jacket left inside. Everything was there ... except Reynolds. He vanished from the face of the earth, never to be seen again. The Litchfield Police Department declared him missing. Days, weeks, and months passed. Paychecks were never cashed. Weddings and funerals were never attended.

Thirty detectives worked the case full time. They interviewed more than 100 people. They tracked down more than 1,000 leads, but came up empty. Nearly 150 evidentiary items were labeled.

To her friends, she was known by her middle name, Michele. And life did not begin easy, as she had life saving surgery just three days after birth. But then what a child she became.

You drive into Fredericktown from the north and you are struck by its beauty. Nestled in the northeastern foothills of the St. Francois mountains, the first sight you see is God's Country Cowboy Church. With just over 3,000 residents, this was Norman Rockwell's small town America. Until it was ripped apart.

The death of a St. Louis man remains unsolved decades later as local detectives and the FBI still haven't decoded cryptic notes found in Ricky McCormick's pocket.

Fifth Street in St. Charles, just off interstate 70. Two gas stations - Mobil and Shell - sit across the street from each other. As the clock struck 11 p.m. on a cold Thursday night in February 1989, the hands of horror and fate awaited.

The music scene at the turn of the 19th century was roaring, especially in the black community. It was ragtime, and nowhere in America was it on display more fully than St. Louis. And few people enjoyed the party atmosphere more than Francine "Frankie" Baker. It seemed like everyone knew her name.

In 1980, Gary Consolino and Ellen Dooling were shot and killed in their car in south St. Louis. There was no robbery, no assault, no struggle. There were no witnesses. The murder of the young couple remains one of the coldest cases in recent St. Louis history.

There have always been questions about the night Emory Futo killed his family. After 30 years, he shared what really happened that night, why he did it, and what he's been living with ever since.

From the outside, the Futos appeared to be a normal family. But to those close to the inner circle, they were anything but. And the story of what went on behind closed doors laid the groundwork for a horrific crime.

We were just preparing to leave Raytown, en route to Wichita, as we continued our chase of the I-70 serial killer, when a car pulled up.

Sarah Blessing became a victim of the I-70 serial killer on May 7, 1992 in Raytown, Missouri.

Finishing the job has always mattered to McCarrick, who has overseen numerous homicide investigations in his career, including Nancy Kitzmiller and the I-70 serial killer.

Nancy Kitzmiller wasn't supposed to work that day in 1992, but she volunteered to come in so another worker could have the day off.

When the killings stopped after 29 days, police were perplexed. Did the killer have his fill? Did he kill himself? Maybe he was arrested for another crime and was sitting in a jailhouse somewhere. Perhaps he found love, got married, and began a new life.

Sylvia's sat right along a busy stretch of Highway 41, the main north-south thoroughfare in Terre Haute, just north of Interstate 70. Sometime just after 4 p.m., a serial killer walked into the store, shot Mick point blank four inches from the back of his head, and fled.

Tim Relph is no ordinary homicide detective. He is chasing the I-70 killer now. But back then.....

It was 685 miles from the Payless Shoe store in Indianapolis to La Bride d’Elegance and Sir Knight Tuxedo and Formal Wear in Wichita. Ten hours and 15 minutes of highway travel through four states.

In Carmel, ghost hunters annually flock to Fox Hollow Farms, considered one of the spookiest places in America

Wednesday afternoon, April 8, 1992. Just 26 years old, Robin Fuldauer was already the manager of the Payless Shoe store. It was really no surprise to her friends, after all, she was the salutatorian of her high school class, just down the street at Lawrence Central, and had just graduated a few years earlier from Indiana University. Her life was in front of her. The shoe store only had two full-time employees, and on this fateful day, her co-worker called in sick. Robin knew she would be running the store alone, and headed out from her North Indianapolis apartment.

A decade after the I-70 killer appeared to stop, a man was killed the same way in one of the towns he struck in. Now, police think they could be connected.
