Christina Kettlewell was a beautiful, promising young woman who was busy working on her career and falling madly in love with her boyfriend, Jack. The couple’s evolving romance led them to a spontaneous, maybe even rebellious, marriage. A few days after their wedding, they headed into the Muskoka wilderness to honeymoon at a friend’s cottage. The friend, Ronald, was also Jack’s roommate, and bizarrely enough, Ronald accompanied the two newlyweds on what should have been a private, romantic, getaway.
The events that took place during that fateful trip are shrouded in mystery; there’s a suspicious fire that takes down the cottage and Christina is found dead in mere inches of water.
The inquest into her unexplained death showcased dramatic theories, various versions of events, and gripping eyewitness testimonies, but the biggest question of all was left unanswered – What happened to Christina Kettlewell? How did the eight-day bride meet her fate?

In December 1910, the heiress to a perfume empire vanished from the streets of Manhattan while shopping on the illustrious Fifth Avenue.
Her disappearance left the public reeling with questions and speculations, and her family’s secrecy in handling the case only served to amplify the concerns of the mystified onlookers. The family was reluctant to engage the police in their investigation into the socialite’s disappearance, which led to a rift and an apparent power struggle between the two entities.
The actions of the family, investigators, and the missing socialite herself paved the way for a plethora of conspiracy theories, and to this day, the vanishing of New York City socialite Dorothy Arnold remains one of the most infamous missing person cases in American history.

MMM Case #10:
In July 2023, Jared Shadeed was captured on surveillance footage leaving the Air BnB he was staying at in the Squire Park neighbourhood of Seattle, Washington. He had few belongings with him, leaving the rest of his luggage inside the share-rental. This is the last time Jared was seen.
A few weeks later, his SUV mysteriously appears in a Los Angeles neighbourhood, but there is still no sign of Jared. How did his vehicle end up 1,100 miles away? How has there been no trace of Jared's whereabouts or clues to the possible circumstances surrounding his disappearance?
His family has been desperately seeking answers for the past 10 months, but sadly, the disappearance of Jared Shadeed remains as perplexing today as it was in those early days...
If you have any information about the disappearance of Jared Shadeed, who was last seen on the surveillance footage of the Air BnB located in the 200 block of 16th Avenue in Seattle’s Squire Park neighbourhood on July 30, 2023, please contact the Seattle Police Department at (206) 625-5011.
