i’ll think about it

The series finale: Buzzfeed Solved
The whole unsolved nation will be on panic mode even more than the corona virus scare
This one is solved now! Her name was Ruth Marie Terry. She was recently identified by DNA through a child she gave up for adoption. Her family loved her deeply and have been looking for her since she went missing. Her sister had been independently searching, but the sister died before these latest results came out. :( They don’t officially know what happened, but she had a sketchy new husband right before she vanished. He died in 2002, but the authorities are still investigating what happened just in case her killer is still alive. The adopted son had the chance to talk to her when he was 13, but declined. He now feels guilty for that - which, of course, he shouldn’t. He’s not the villain here. Very very sad. Apparently a nice lady who wasn’t even 40 yet who is remembered for her laughter and big smile.
Wow, identified by a son she gave up for adoption. How ironic...someone she didn't keep for whatever reasons, helped identify her.
I hope they will do a follow-up video regarding this
The murderer isn't confirmed tho...still better than just being a Jane Doe
But was it the same lady from Jaws?
@@insectwarfare8681 It’s possible. She could’ve walked onto set to look for her husband Guy who she was travelling with at the time. Her husband is the main suspect for reasons I mentioned in another comment
Props to everyone who worked to identify the Lady of the Dunes. Rest in peace Ruth Marie Terry.
solved after 48 years
so was she in jaws or not?
@@YeTism not but her suspect is identified as Guy Rockwell Muldavin (deceased)
@@YeTism Joe Hill (the person who came up with the Jaws theory) recently posted a comparison of Ruth's photo next to the Jaws extra, and their facial features and structure look very similar. There's a possibility that the extra could've been Ruth, but we don't know for sure yet.
One Unsolved mystery I hope we can solve one day is what happened to Bobby Dunbar.
I feel bad for the 12 year old girl who had to discover that kind of scene
Or the cop that went in Jeffrey Dahmer’s apartment and opened his fridge, poor people
So upsetting for that little girl. I hope her parents got her therapy

Ryan: says anything regarding the paranormal Shane: looks at camera
this also works the other way around
I thought you meant shane dawson and ryland Adams lol
Its so weird to think there are people who knew her, went to school with her, or were friends or family. And still we dont know who she is
It’s so weird, or none wants to come forward or they are off the grid. Which maybe, they don’t want to come forward after hearing this. Maybe they are mourning her.
@@batrainn true but if they were not off the grid they would have asked around for her location or spoken to the police a day or less after no contact with her.
Or she's a human trafficking victim, stolen at a young age, and so no one went to school with her, or knows her, really. Maybe she's a spy!
Maybe they didn't realize it was her just figured it was someone who looked like her
@@Solonneysa I was trafficked and I went to school and had friends
THE LADY OF THE DUNES HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED Y’ALL! The FBI announced that her name is Ruth Marie Terry and they found her identity via investigative genealogy. So glad that she has her name back!

“All rich people are murderers” -Comrade Shane Madej
Beezlebubblegum V hate him or love him he’s speaking straight fax here
As if I couldn't love Shane any more than I already do, he starts preaching the truth
Never thought I'd see a day when Shane becomes a socialist
Erin Dunagan I’m here for it
shane eats the rich for sure
Ngl I feel like she was probably someone who wasn’t American and that’s why she never got identified. That or the Jaws theory.
Yeah. Maybe she just flew into America from another part of the world. No one knows her story and if she wasn't identified within America, then she obviously wasn't from there
MaeLyn Cold War spy?
Yeah I def feel like she was living off the grid. Probably just abandoned her past life, name and everything and came to cape cod.
The expensive dental work makes me wonder if it was a wealthy person who maybe went down a path in life her family didn’t like and they could care less about her. Maybe some Park Avenue brat that got hooked on drugs and her parents just gave up.
They did contact Interpol though. I feel like someone with such extensive dental records would have had a record somewhere out of the country.
there should be a watcher show that's like buzzfeed unsolved but solved cases and ryan presents the theories then makes shane guess which one it was.
That is a wonderful idea
Holy crap yes
I'd like to suggest they swap roles: Shane presents and Ryan guesses
ghost files :]
Well GUESS WHAT
The Jaws theory is insane. Same clothing found at the scene, she looks like the lady, fits the timeline and location. She probably sneaked on set to get away from her killer. She also was the only one looking behind her so she was most likely hiding from her killer but probably died days/weeks later.
I hate that mannequin. It's really creepy. One day, Shane's ghost will possess it and be like," Hey, I am the tall guy who used to work here and scare ghosts and demons."
Yeah. Maybe since there was such a crowd there she thought it'd be a good place to hide from the killer. Maybe she knew someone was out to kill her. As you said, she was the only person looking behind her, possibly keeping an eye out for her killer. Maybe when the scene was over and the crowd thinned out she was spotted by the killer without her knowing and they stalked her, or maybe she was caught and killed days after. I wonder who she was, and why she had to hide from a killer. She was obviously targeted, but why? Also the body suggests the murderer had killed before, and had possibly been caught and released. Possibly they were caught due to association with the victim, and that's why they took so many precautions to keep her unidentifiable. Maybe they also knew this woman and knew they'd be looked in to if she was identified because of their murderous past. I apologise for the wall of text, I love theorising about cases.
@@Moo-2310 i think ya got it spot on!
@@incoherentbabbler8496 thanks! I always love throwing in my thoughts on unsolved cases, so it's nice when someone appreciates my theories.
I think youre making way too many assumptions lmao
Shane looks like a struggling poet who only drinks his coffee black and only shops at Whole Foods
At joes man. A struggling poet cant afford whole foods
Maa Moo true
Black cold pressed coffee
Is that not who he is?
whats wrong with saving money
It freaks me out that with all these unsolved cases someone out there knows what happened....
Bella Xx correct - and they are too spineless to say anything. 😊
Ace B you really comin for them murderers huh 😅
hi ami :)
Your comment gave me goosebumps 😩
Imagine the murderer is watching this right now
I think the Jaws theory is really solid. She could totally be an extra from out of town that was murdered -- and you just so happen to be able to see her in the film. That would explain why no one who lived there recognized her and why her dental work was "New York" style.
This is a very strong theory or this is what happened, which we may never figure out. But maybe we will figure this out someday. I honestly think this did happen. It’s clearly evident that it was her.
@@batrainn i m pretty sure its her and the fact that she was running from her murderer must have been a long run and when she reached the jaws shoot, the murderer was close by and she was trying to look around seeing if the murderer is near, but probably when she thought it was over, a few hours after the shoot , she must've got strangled till she was passed out, then the murderer cut off her hands and bash her face so that she dies and her identity is hard to confirm n the movie since he knows she was on camera. it is a high possibility that she was chased for a long time and the incidents that took place happened.
but the area where she could be strangled is unknown since the area was lively
@@m.danielzamzamy7633 indeed it is, but we have to up our games up if we can stop these things from happening again
@@batrainn She has thankfully been identified publicly as of the 31st of October 2022.
very late but adding. many extras on jaws were in fact locals due to the low budget of the movie. basically anyone could have walked on set and been considered an extra. so that theory is possible.
With that in mind that theory is definitely correct.

Wait, that's actually really accurate.
BYE THIS IS SO ACCURATE
UPDATE: as of august 28, 2023 her husband guy muldavin has officially been named as ruth marie terry’s killer. it’s been solved after 48 years!!
For me, this is a case for forensic genealogy, not to find her murderer, but to give her a name. Everyone deserves a nake in their tombstone, and to be remembered as more that just the way they died.
not everyone has a tombstone
I might be biased because I don't care for having a tombstone, but who would be remembering her that didn't already know the woman they knew was gone? People who just know the story of her death, and now have a name to attach to their true crime entertainment. I'd like to be remembered by those that actually knew me and gradually forgotten, not memorialized as the punchline of a spooky story.
It has been solved (her name found via dna match of a son she gave up for adoption), although her murder is still a mystery. I hope they find out whether it was her husband or not...
Shane is bringing that POWERFUL divorced substitute teacher energy.

Shannya Preeya hell i don’t like dogs. Some seem fine but i would hate having one

But is it really that surprising 🤷🏻♀️
he's cancelled
I’m convinced he’s a serial killer.
As others have pointed out, yeah, as of a few days ago the Lady of the Dunes has been identified as Ruth Marie Terry. It is currently suspected that the killer was her at the time and now deceased husband Guy Muldavin, who is believed to have killed several other people, including another wife of his and their daughter. Just goes to show how overdramatized these mystery cases can get sometimes. No prison escapee, no victim of mob crime, seemingly just an unfortunate woman who had her life stolen away by who she believed to be her lover.
and the husband convieniently married just one year later...
Finally, She has been identified on 31 October 2022 as Ruth Marie Terry. May she rest in peace.
Creepy coincidence
On halloween
do you ever just forget this is unsolved and then get really disappointed when they don't say what really happened at the end? yeah, me too.
Ella Maack I’m more sad that it’s unsolved cause I know there’s almost certainly a family somewhere that just didn’t catch the right information at the right time, and thus gave up looking for answers that could’ve possibly been found I think a lot about how many mothers must watch stuff like this looking for information that might give them *something* more than the painful nothing they have for answers right now
Yep
Why is Shane dressed like a substitute English teacher
cahtali I would do anything for Shane to be my English sub 😅🤣
cahtali #roastmortem
... in like a porno from 1981?
because shane IS a substitute english teacher.
Or a substitute Defence of the Dark Arts teacher.
Who else is revisiting Shane and Ryan's rundown now that The Lady of the Dunes has been identified?
If it's of "new york style" why didn't they send it to all the dentists in New York INSTEAD?!?!
I was thinking the same thing lol. But I agree with Shane's observation-does the "New York" thing means it's just fancy and big city-esque or like literal New York.
Exactly. They should have sent it out to every state. One intriguing possibility though is that her dentist was actually her killer😳 and simply denied that he had her case file with him. Or simply got rid of it. Those were pre-computer days so that might have been easier then. At any rate, this woman wasn't some kind of drifter who was off the grid if she had such extensive work done
I was thinking the exact same thing!! Given that no one in the town came forward to identify her and that no dentists in the state had access to her dental records, I assumed that she had probably come from another state and that her dental records were probably in that other state. Given that her dental work was done "in the New York style", I thought that New York would've probably been the best place to start looking for dentists who might be able to identify her
"New York style" doesn't mean it was done in New York lol the phrasing "new york style" reminded me of how there are types of clothing styles referred to as American or European. it just refers to the fit or silhouette of something, I believe. it doesn't mean a piece of clothing or a suit was made in the US or Europe, it's just a style. it doesn't surprise me that they didn't send any dental records out of state, though. back in the day, it was harder to do something we take for granted today. it wouldn't be as simple as calling someone in NY and asking them to email something. electronic records for medical/dental stuff is still pretty new, and there's no central database of this information. so you'd need people to go through thousands and thousands of dental records in hard copy -- just files of paper -- and closely analyze each of them to see if they're a match. that would require so much time and money to do that, and this was just some random missing person. unfortunately, not a lot of effort is generally put into finding people who go missing, especially prior to the modern age when it's so much easier to track people, given the ubiquity of surveillance. if this woman was poor or otherwise marginalized, people wouldn't have really cared enough to try to find her or find out who she was.
I was wondering that too😂

Damn...
Same thoughts 😂
I think I’ve seen one like this before, doesn’t mean it’s not hilarious.
Well she has been identified now, and she married a man who murdered his previous wife and step daughter one month before she was found. I read the details of it, and he seems exactly like the kind of person who would do this. Out of all cases, this was the one I least expected to get kinda solved. Or at least have a possible explanation. But we did. It’s incredible. Rest in peace Ruth Marie Terrie.
Who's here after she has been finally identified, rest in peace Ruth Marie Terry, my thoughts and prayers are to her family as I know they must be going through a lot. I hope now they can find the suspect who committed her murder
I'm like 99 percent sure it was her husband, they just need to prove it now.
@@kylar1042 I’m 100% sure considering he didn’t report her missing, he was travelling with her when she went missing, and he had gone to jail for killing his ex wife and their daughter 2 years before marrying Ruth.
@Kylar Glad you ain't no detective then. You being 100% sure is exactly why others have served time for crimes they didn't commit. Yall blamed police in the Zodiac case for honing in on I think it was a black male, yet here you are doing the same thing, trying to force the pieces to fit.

If I remember correctly the jaws scene was filmed at the actual town with the extras being the citizens, they probably didn’t keep record due to them not being employees
1 mile off the ranger station, military entrenching tool, had a vehicle and she trusted the killer? I bet it was one of the rangers
#postmortem
Also what I thought!! Did they question them at all?!
Penis
Plus, it's awfully suspicious that the body hadn't been discovered by one of the rangers til several days after. A ranger stationed there would know where and where not to patrol. He would've known where to dispose of the body
Well I think this could have happened. Maybe the woman was a criminal(or maybe an outsider?) who was found and caught by a ranger. But instead of arresting her he tried to do something to her( that would explain the clothes off) and murdered her. The murderer seems to know how to hide a crime and he may be familiar with crime work. So a ranger is a possible guess. Also it would explain the military entrinching tool and the place not being far away from a ranger station. That would explain that the woman trusted her and went with her murderer without any struggle. And no ranger was ever questioned or suspected. So he can easily get away.

For postmortem: Why does Shane always clarify that he’s “running for exercise”? What is he running from? What is he hiding? #postmortem

hes hiding from satan so he can continue to spend his time on earth despite being a demon
He's stalking his elderly neighbors to steal their clothes

Is it just me or does anyone else really want them to make a solved series! Basically the same, and give all the evidence and leads, but with cases that have been solved. Maybe even have Shane and Ryan not know until it is revealed at the end that was they can still make their theories and not give anything away. I love the unsolved, but it’s sometimes a little disappointing to never know what actually happened!
I was about to say the same thing!
i know right if they do id' watch the series every day they posted
They should do it on Watcher!!
@@yellowdiamondlordgiraffe8100 let's hope they see this message and get the idea regarding it
#postmortem
“you do usually paint yourself as suspect number one when you call in something” among us players when someone reports a body: SeLf RePoRt!!!!
I know that feeling, its awefull, cause i was trying to say who the actual imposter was and they thought i was the imposter, but i was only a crew mate i was scared the whole time
So I have a theory: What if this woman was trafficked from another country? She could’ve had work done if she were brought over as a mail order bride, she could’ve been on the set of Jaws while trying to escape her husband, and this husband killed her so she wouldn’t talk. The husband likely could’ve been a doctor, explaining the work not being recognized. It would have also explained her body being so carefully maimed, as someone with medical experience would’ve known what to do. And if she was a mail order bride, almost no one would know her identity. Just something I thought of while watching the show.
it would also explain the dental records, even if its "new york style" it could also be another country's dental work that looked similar or the same price as a dentist in new york, explaining why they couldnt find her records, cause they won't be in a US database.
She was identified- turns out she was from Tennessee. While other parts of your theory could be true, we'll just have to wait and see if any other information about her emerges.

They should do a series called “buzzfeed solved” where they talk about weird and confusing murders etc that actually get solved and talk about the same stuff here but then tell us who it was and why they done it etc
I just love them talking about crime cases so I totally agree. Or maybe just do a series of Solved mysteries lol
Totally agree!
Yeah I’ve been thinking about that and I would love it
I was literally thinking the same thing.
And they would have to have a team member know the answer so they find out if they guessed right
Post Mortem: The fact that the crime was so close to the ranger station, wasn't called in for up to *3 weeks* , had evidence of a military-type tool being used, and they had a vehicle makes me suspect the sheriff's station was involved somehow. Maybe they didn't commit the murder themselves, but they were covering up for someone. The police was pretty shady in the 70's. #PostMortem

Maybe you talk her up a bit and find out she’s from out of town, working on a movie. This would also explain the odd and easily found placement of the body, maybe they wanted it found. If you’re looking for a missing criminal and a body looking just like her turns up, maybe the police jump to conclusions, is something they could have thought about. In the end what I’m proposing is really unlikely to be true, it is just that the placement of the body and the weird combination of a professional job and the brutality of the killing make it seem as if the body was left there intentionally to be discovered but not identifiable. Anyways just a thought
i came to the same conclusions too. also, i think it's mysterious that Carolyn O'Leary was still reported as "missing" in the 80s, despite being "very much alive".
@@MarySmith-ih7qs Well, apparently some people have the same name and last name. So maybe this was a different Carolyn.
Well, in the end I like theory 1. It’s very strong and very evident that this could have possibly happened. I conclusively compared the sculpture and the shot she might have been in. She also was wearing the same clothing so I think this is definitely her.
that jaws theory seems soo fr that it’s scary💀
Edgar Allen Poe: *has sex with 13-year-old* Shane: Can't be doin' that Rory Gene Kesinger: *attempts to shoot cops* Shane: Baller
Yours Truly i mean those r to complete things tho💀💀
acab
both valid points
Ok, ok u have a point here
And he’s right on both accounts
Shane’s sounding a whole lot like Cruella De Vil talking about a “rotten Dalmatian”
Nina Hecht I mean have you seen his turtleneck he’s clearly channeling something.
Im gonna make that now lol. Also thats so trUe
Oh, so that's how they're going to make Cruella sympathetic in her upcoming movie
“What happened to his hands?” “What was that?” “His hands, why- why are they missing??” “Well I cooked them up. And ate them” “...Carl....”
i feel like stephen kings sons theory about the woman being on the set of jaws is very compelling. it might just be a coincidence but something about it just feels like it fits
I agree. This theory is suggesting that this could have happened. There is a lot of evidence that concludes this happened.
You've literally copied the same comment from avery sweat in the same comment section-

Her dentist straight up murdered her. Look out for Ryan's dad.
He's killed before, he'll do it again.
Danielle Bergmann and Chris Evans dad.
this kind of makes sense? They say that no dentist identified her tooth work but if her dentist killed her, why would they?
Cerrie Field she was sleeping with them to pay for the work and she didn’t have same feelings he felt used and invited her for vacation and killed her.
🤣😂🤣
ryan: what could that dog have been barking at? shane: **starts talking about kids on leashes**
Hold up-- i was: "I don't remember writing this" 😂 I got so confuse !
if shane played among us he wouldnt report a body
Body identified On October 31, 2022, the FBI field office in Boston announced that the victim had been identified as Ruth Marie Terry.
by looks alone : shane reminds me of the maths teacher who cares about their students love life more than the subject and ryan reminds me of the alcoholic dude your parents are friends with for some reason
koyakook I feel bad I knew the EXACT guy when you said that 😂
Those are very specific lol
Hmmmmm Bit specific, TOOO SPECIFIC
koyakook OMG YES!!!!!
@@jamescook8536 i hate maths class
For Postmortem: my bets are 100% on the Jaws extra. my great aunt was an extra on jaws just because she was sitting on the beach. someone ran up to her and was just like ‘we’ll give you 200 bucks, just keep putting sunscreen on’. that gives the impression that they kind of used the general beach crowd as extras. love you guys! 🧡
If so, does she know the extra? Like, has she seen where that extra went?
Trex 8210 Jaws has hundreds of extras, and if they’ve just used general people who are around the beach, the likeliness anyone knows another person there who they weren’t already there with is incredibly unlikely. Also even if someone was to remember where the person went from Jaws they won’t remember details from 46 years ago. I do think the Jaws theory is the most likely though
Yeah and it’s not a coincidence that she was shown in the same clothes that were with her at the beach when she died. It seems like this case would have been easy to solve because it’s quite simple and I don’t know how it’s taking pi’s and police to solve this one.
Positive Equine as they said. How are you supposed to know who it is if u don’t have the names documented. Also just coz she was in jaws doesn’t give a motive or a suspect.
Diabeticgamer 420 agree but it is fishy 😉. If it was her in jaws than that would have probably been the last picture of her because she was in the same clothes. Just a thought if mine so I dong know 😊
Why is everyone only noticing the weird mannequin behind Shane now
The mannequin's been there since season 2
It's from the men in black episode if I'm correct, when they talk about pale men in black, and the drawing has bright red lips
Came back right after her identity was found.
Same
The fact that dogs growl at Shane further confirms that he is a demon
My thoughts exactly XD
That's why every demon he's ever baited hasn't fucked with them, he's actually some super powerful being so doesn't fear anything below him.
Or he’s a terminator
Facts
He’s a powerful demon that accidentally befriended a mortal
Why is no one talking about the poor little girl who found the body. If I found a body when I was 12 I would be scarred for life
ikr! she must have been so traumatized
Hope she's okay now.
@@Quackervoltz shes about 59 right now, really hope shes doing good. edit: looked it up, she died. the article never said why though, shes was pretty young, about 35
try watching someone get shot infront of you LOL in the hood
@purple cowgirl i believe they said it in the video
Ryan and Shane should start a “Solved” series when old cases they covered are finally solved !!!
They just identified her! Ruth Marie Terry, 37, from Tennessee.
Shane looks like a man I would never talk to under any circumstance
shane looks like a man i would give all my limbs to talk to
Izzy Ye I mean if I actually saw Shane I would def want to talk to him turtleneck or not lol
for post mortem: that poor girl who found the body was probably scarred for life. but also, the way ryan read that scenario kind of made it sound like she stumbled upon the corpse and immediately went 'yeah i'd say she's about 5 feet, 6 1/2 inches tall; 145 pounds; between 20 & 40 years old" and i was like 'dayum this girl sherlock holmes' before i realized i'm an idiot anyway i think it was aliens
Bacon Errwhere I literally heard this that way
Aliens for sure.
This comment deserves waaay more likes
See I wasn’t gonna say anything but this is exactly what I thought 😂😂
Same!
i love it when shane gets too radical for ryan's taste and ryan kinda tries to push him back but shane just presses on.
As of 11am today October 31st, 2022 she has been officially identified as Ruth Marie Terry of Tennessee.
Ryan: What do you think the dog was barking at? Shane: I think kids should be put on leashes
I genuinely forgot this show is called “Unsolved” and was really anticipating finding out who did it... ( ; _ ; )
pissingmyself Well then buzzfeed should make a video called “the dazzling mind of pissingmyself”
SAME
pissingmyself you should try crime junkie
pissingmyself a lot of clues pointed to the mobster guy
EVERYTIME!!!!!
She has just been identified, Oct 31 2022, as Ruth Terry She was 37 May she rest in peace
They found her real identity May you rest in peace, Ruth Marie.
Ryan: What was the dog barking at? Shane [avoiding the question]: I hate dogs. Also put your kids on a leash folks.
" she tried to shoot a cop with his own gun." Shane: " he was probably being mean to her"
Cough cough *SIMP*

Hehe
Last time I watched this episode, I didn't know who Whitey Bulger was. Now I'm friends with his great nephew.
That’s pretty interesting
The Lady of the Dunes was just identified as Ruth Marie Terry who was 37 at the time of her death.
The Jaws theory is just mind boggling. It looks a lot like her
Metal In Your Head ikr it makes so much sense. I can totally picture her showing up for the shoot, and then staying around the beach too late, ending up confronted by her killer. I almost want to look into this more and try to find out who she is.
It sure does.. and all the pieces fit! I’d say I’m 99% sure it’s her
Is it just me or is it kinda weird that she was looking over her shoulder nervously even though no one else in the shot is
Leonardo Miller It would be interesting to see the whole scene and what she might have looked at. Maybe it was simply a camera or something, but I also thought that strange.
@@emdove i might rewatch Jaws and send more context
I’m gonna need “all rich people are murderers” on a t shirt

"I just got arrested! That's why people don't call it in, I just got arrested"
Who is here happy that she had been identified finally
I'm so happy she has her name back.
@@DizzyedUpGirl she never lost her name

But your Nashville TN.! How good a great city like yours be broke?!

Nathan Jakob Micheal Thomas Fr Tennessee is not as great as it seems but thanks for the comment.😔✊
Laiden Whitaker That’s East TN and it’s pretty cool.
can you imagine how scaring it would be for a 12 year old to find a nearly decapitated body!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Millie, calm down with the exclamation marks oh my god-
Trash Raccoon ehh I’m good
Where you trying to say "scary" or "scarring"?
Christine C. Scarring I can’t spell
i would be terrified even as an adult!
How has the extra in Jaws not come forward to claim it’s her? That makes it even more suspicious and plausible that the deceased body very well may be her.
to be fair, a lot of people haven’t even heard of this case, plus jaws is at this point a pretty old movie
Who is here after her identity was confirmed?
Ryan: “so what do you think the dog was barking at?” Shane: *”i kinda understand putting children on leashes”*
Shane: wears a turtleneck Ryan: *agressive energy*
Sips coffee*
In recent news, they were able to confirm the victim and her name is Ruth Marie Terry (37). They said the cause of death was determined to be a blow to the head. Rip Ruth Marir Terry.
