Happy Birthday Dean Malenko


Today is Dean Malenko's 49th birthday and my 35th. I was born on his 14th. For those who don't know who Dean Malenko is. He is a retired professional wrestler who is now a producer/road agent for WWE. He began his career in 1979 in FL. By the mid 1980's he was a star in Japan. IN 1994 he went to ECW with the late Eddie Guerrero and had some of the best matches ever. In 1995 Dean,Eddie and Chris Benoit went to WCW. He was a US champ there as well as one of only 2 guys to hold the Cruiserweight title 4 times. The other was Jericho. IN 2000 Dean went to WWE with Benoit,Guerrero and Perry Saturn as the Radicalz. He won the Lightheavyweight title twice. He also got show his wonderful sense of humor in a program with diva Lita. Then he retired and began his backstage work in August 2001 after a match at the Pillman/Hildebrand memorial show where he announced his plans to retire. Next to this birthday blog I have posted a picture of Dean and will post a link to a match video here: Dean VS Eddie in Japan

Boy In The Box Identified As Joseph Augustus Zarelli

RIP Jacob Wetterling

On October 22, 1989, just after 9:00 p.m., Jacob Wetterling (11), his younger brother Trevor (10), and a friend Aaron (11), were cycling home from a  convenience store  where they had gone to rent a video, [1]  when a masked gunman came out of a driveway and ordered the boys to throw their bikes into a ditch and lie face down on the ground. He then asked each boy his age. Jacob's brother was told to run toward a nearby wooded area and not look back or else he would be shot. The gunman then demanded to view the faces of the two remaining boys. He picked Jacob, and told his friend to run away and not look back otherwise he would shoot. [2]  This was the last time Jacob was ever seen. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacob_Wetterling Sources tell 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS the remains of Jacob Wetterling have been found after Danny Heinrich, who authorities had named as a person of interest in his 1989 kidnapping, agreed to cooperate and provide information. The sources say Hein

"Cropsey" Andre Rand

Only one of Rands multiple suspected victims has ever been found. She was Jennifer Schweiger a 12 year old with downs syndrome that he buried at his campsite in the woods near the mental hospital he was janitor at. He  got 25 years to life for her kidnapping and murder.  Here is a list of other possible victims who's bodies have yet to be found:   Alice Pereia, Holly Ann Hughes, Tiahease Tiawanna Jackson & Henry Gafforio. Audrey Lyn Nergenberg, an eighteen-year-old who disappeared in 1977 is also believed to be linked to Rand. Let's help Staten Island police solve these cases and brings these kids home for their families to bury. He spree of terror lasted from at least 1977 to 1987 when he killed Jennifer. At right is a picture of Jennifer, an innocent young life needlessly lost.  http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/5625256/the_legend_of_cropsey.html?cat=37
