Many of you have been asking about the plaques. They were added to the graves in 2001 (at Goldfield Cemetery) and in 2005 (at old Tonopah cemetery). However, some of the original graves DID have the cause of death like the ones shown here. Unfortunately due to vandals, many of the originals have gone missing but a few remain. The reasoning for putting cause of death on graves back then was to serve as a warning. “Don’t let what happened to me, happen to you.” The reasoning for putting the cause of death on todays graves is to preserve the history and to show & remind others how tumultuous life was back then. Surviving was the only way of life. Hope this helps answer your questions! #CapCut #fyp #goldfield #goldfieldnv #goldfieldnevada #goldfieldcemetery #tonopah #tonopahnevada #oldtonopahcemetery #tonopahcemetery #wildwest #cowboy #outlaw #cemetery #graveyard #rip #taphophile #history #historic #checkthisout #western #johnnycash

Never thought I’d say this but dying of illness during these times was the best case scenario. Everything else was just violent. Out of all the graves I saw at both cemeteries, only two were of people who died of old age. Two. #CapCut #fyp #goldfield #goldfieldnv #goldfieldnevada #goldfieldcemetery #tonopah #tonopahnevada #oldtonopahcemetery #tonopahcemetery #wildwest #cowboy #outlaw #cemetery #graveyard #rip #taphophile #history #historic #checkthisout #western #johnnycash

Patricia Newsom was murdered in August 1975. On August 16, 1975, a truck driver was making a delivery when he noticed something in the drainage ditch. It was a long object wrapped in a canvas tarp and held closed by a coaxial cable. The driver suspected it was a body and called the police. A detective arrived, cut a small hole in the tarp, and saw a human leg. The body was taken to the medical examiner’s office. It was bloated and showed signs of decomposition. Once the tarp was removed, it revealed a young woman’s body, fully nude, with no possessions or identification. Her head was wrapped in a towel and covered with a plastic trash bag and her mouth was stuffed with a cloth gag. Her hands were bound together behind her back with wire and her legs were similarly tied together at the ankles. Her death was ruled a homicide from asphyxia by smothering. Police had no idea who she was. Police were able to get good fingerprints. With a description, dental records, fingerprints, and a blood type, police believed they would identify her quickly. They created a composite sketch which was published in the local papers and circulated. Investigators went to motels and asked transient people whether they recognized a sketch of the woman. Weeks turned into months, and the town was saddled with the responsibility of handling her body. They buried her in an unmarked grave as "Jane Doe" in Hamden, Connecticut. Then, she faded from public view for twenty years. In May 1994, police revisited the case. The police chief explained a potential connection to a known transgender killer named Samantha Glenner (formerly Glen Robert Askeborn) and a few other unsolved murders. Police saw enough coincidences in the crimes to interview Glenner about their Jane Doe, but it went nowhere. In 2020, officers Joseph Murgo and David Emerman were both promoted to Captain, and determined to restore the identity of the 1975 Jane Doe case. With the rise of genetic genealogy, they felt confident. The medical examiner had kept a pubic bone but they were unable to recover any DNA from it. Murgo and Emerman needed to find her body. By 2022, they realized that the cemetery in which she was buried was no longer professionally managed, and there were no records. They only knew she had been buried in a metal Ziegler casket. It took multiple trips to the cemetery and several failed attempts before they located the casket with a ground penetrating radar device. When they opened the lid, there was an autopsy sheet covering the body. The lab quickly developed a full DNA profile of their Jane Doe and turned it over to Identifinders for the genealogical work to begin. Days later, Jane Doe was identified as Patricia Newsom. They contacted Patricia's sister, Maryann, to break the news. In April 2023, a press conference was held to announce Patricia's identity. Afterwards, police returned to their files to see if knowing Patricia’s identity would change their understanding of the case. They knew that Patricia had been at a boarding school, disappeared, and had not been heard from for 2-3 years before her body was found. But aside from that, they had no real leads on who may have killed her. Patricia had never been reported missing, largely because her mother died when she was 11 years old, and her father and his new wife had limited contact with her. Patricia's body was exhumed a second time and removed from the sheet-metal casket. She was cremated and reburied with her mother in October 2023. Her killer was never found. Patricia was 18 years old. #grave #cemetery #mausoleum #graves #cemeteries #cemeteryexplorer #cemeteryexplorers #famous #famouspeople #famousgraves #famousgrave #graveyard #gravephotographer #gravestone #gravestones #taphophile #taphophilia #celebritygraves #murder #murdervictim #murdervictims #murdervictimsawareness #unsolved #unsolvedcases #unsolvedcasefiles #unsolvedcrime #unsolvedcrimes #truecrimetiktok #truecrime #truecrimecommunity #truecrimetok

This cemetery has been on my bucket list for as long as I can remember. Getting to experience it in person was unlike anything else. During the silver and gold rush, Goldfield became that largest town in all of Nevada. Yet seemingly overnight, many of it’s residents left due to better opportunities out in California as well as disease, a flood, a fire, and lots of violence. Today, Goldfield is a town of about 250 people and is mostly abandoned. Many of the original buildings from the 1800s are still standing, including some with furniture from the era. I can’t wait to come back here and explore more. There are definitely restless Spirits who roam there and I got to experience it first hand🤠👻🪦 #CapCut #fyp #goldfield #goldfieldnv #goldfieldnevada #nevada #wildwest #goldfieldcemetery #cemetery #graveyard #cemeteryexploring #taphophile #checkthisout #history #coolgraves #amazinggraves #rip #inmemory #goldrush #history #western #cowboy #outlaw #truecrime #historic #americanhistory #paranormal #haunted #travel #darktourism #ghosttown #abandoned #urbanexploration

Rosalie Crothers-Shockley was murdered on February 12, 2018. On February 10, 2018, police responded to a call about an infant in cardiac arrest. Paramedics found Rosalie in critical condition and transported her to the hospital. She died two days later. While at the hospital, investigators said Rosalie was found to have both chronic and acute intracranial hemorrhages and extensive bilateral retinal hemorrhages, meaning she was bleeding from the brain and eyes. The injuries were consistent with abusive head trauma, caused by both recent and ongoing abuse, such as shaking. Rosalie was in the sole care of her father, Zion Isaiah Shockley. After being investigated, Shockley initially denied involvement, but later admitted that he accidentally dropped and shook Rosalie, on multiple occasions, and inflicted the injuries that caused her death. According to Shockley, he had taken Rosalie to an upstairs bedroom as the downstairs was being cleaned. He began playing a video game called “Call of Duty,” with Rosalie on a bed nearby. At some point, Shockley’s opponent in the game made a disparaging comment about his skills, which upset Shockley, who had a below-average IQ of 61. In a fit of rage, Shockley picked Rosalie up, tossed her in the air multiple times without catching her, and then shook her violently for about one minute. He then left the room to get some water, and when he returned he noticed Rosalie was not breathing. Despite Rosalie's condition, Shockley did nothing to help her. Emergency responders were not called until Shockley's grandfather entered the room and saw Rosalie. Shockley was charged with murder and related offenses. He was held without bail. At trial, Rosalie's mother, Jacqueline Marie Baldwin, said to Shockley, “What you did is unforgivable.” “The pain you caused is unbearable. You robbed a part of my entire life from me. I don’t know how you can live with yourself. You were my best friend at one point, but now you are a monster to me.” Additionally, Rosalie’s grandmother, Shelly Keehn, told Shockley what it was like to have her granddaughter killed at such a young age. "We'll never see her take her first steps, or say her first words, Keehn said. “She didn’t even have her first birthday.” Shockley was found guilty of third-degree murder. He was sentenced to 31-62 years in prison. He also pleaded guilty to counts of aggravated assault and endangering the welfare of a child under the age of 13. Rosalie was 5 months old. #grave #cemetery #mausoleum #graves #cemeteries #cemeteryexplorer #cemeteryexplorers #famous #famouspeople #famousgraves #famousgrave #graveyard #gravephotographer #gravestone #gravestones #taphophile #taphophilia #celebritygraves #murder #murdervictim #murdervictims #murdervictimsawareness #unsolved #unsolvedcases #unsolvedcasefiles #unsolvedcrime #unsolvedcrimes #truecrimetiktok #truecrime #truecrimecommunity #truecrimetok

Gloria Bozzelli was murdered on April 9, 1953. On the evening of April 8, 1953, Gloria and her father Peter were watching television. When Peter awoke the next morning, he went to the kitchen expecting to find Gloria making coffee. She wasn't there. Peter got in touch with two of his grown sons, then sent one of them to the home of Gloria's boyfriend, Vincent Manzo. Vincent said he had not seen her since dropping her off at home after a date the day prior. Peter notified the police about Gloria's disappearance, and told them she had been keeping house for him since his wife died in 1951. On April 24, 1953, Gloria was found on the bank of an abandoned canal called Iron Ore Creek. Her partially-clothed body was found in an Army duffel bag with her knees pressed against her chest. She had been strangled to death with a nylon stocking that was knotted tightly around her neck. Police said that Gloria had been beaten viciously before her death. Her left eye was swollen and discolored and her upper lip was bruised. When the duffel bag was sent to the state police laboratory, its contents were examined for clues. Gloria's ballerina skirt had been removed and stuffed into the bag with her body. She had been wearing a blue blouse and underwear, but no shoes. The only thing in the bag with any identification was a school ring on Gloria's finger, bearing the initials VJM, which belonged to her boyfriend. Police questioned Vincent Manzo again, and he told them the same thing - that he had not seen Gloria since the day prior to her disappearance. Just days later, while interviewing with police about his daughter's disappearance and murder, Peter Bozzelli broke down and admitted to killing her. Bozzelli stated that he had been out to dinner with Gloria and they returned home about 9:30pm. Then they sat in the living room and talked. At some point, he questioned Gloria about $600 in savings that had gone missing from a drawer in his bedroom. Her reply angered him, and they got into a violent fight before he beat her and then strangled her to death with one of her own stockings. Bozzelli said he took Gloria's body down to the basement and stuffed it into the olive green Army bag they had been using for laundry. He dragged the duffel bag through a side door and placed it into his 1951 Pontiac, then drove into another state to dispose of it at the creek. Once he completed his confession, Bozzelli was arrested for Gloria's murder. On October 7, 1953, he pleaded not guilty to the charges. Less than three weeks later, he was found guilty of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison. During the short trial, it was revealed that Gloria was still alive, making noise and trying to struggle, as Bozzelli dragged her down to the basement. "I thought she'd passed out," he said. "Her tongue came out a little. I picked up a bag, It might have been a laundry bag. I tried wrapping her up but I couldn't do it. So I put her in the bag." As Bozzelli was being led out of the courtroom, Gloria's boyfriend Vincent Manzo lunged at him and began swinging. On November 3, 1954, Bozzelli died in Eastern State Penitentiary from broncho-pneumonia after having been on a hunger strike for three weeks. Gloria was 24 years old. She is buried alongside her mother in this unmarked grave next to other family members. #grave #cemetery #mausoleum #graves #cemeteries #cemeteryexplorer #cemeteryexplorers #famous #famouspeople #famousgraves #famousgrave #graveyard #gravephotographer #gravestone #gravestones #taphophile #taphophilia #celebritygraves #murder #murdervictim #murdervictims #murdervictimsawareness #unsolved #unsolvedcases #unsolvedcasefiles #unsolvedcrime #unsolvedcrimes #truecrimetiktok #truecrime #truecrimecommunity #truecrimetok

Patricia McDermott was murdered on May 17, 2005. That morning, just before dawn at around 4:45am, Patricia had gotten off a bus and was walking to work. Out of nowhere, a man who had been walking behind Patricia ran up and shot her point blank in the back of the head with a .380 pistol. The man then took off, ran through a parking lot and quickly disappeared. Police reviewed surveillance footage and noted the man was wearing a light jacket and a baseball hat. They immediately ruled out robbery as a motive, since the man did not appear to speak with Patricia at all. Investigators found the bullet that killed Patricia, but said it would do no good without a suspect or the murder weapon. They could not establish a motive, but were working on the theory that Patricia was specifically targeted instead of being a random victim. It was discovered that the killer had been on the bus with Patricia. Police released a sketch of a "person of interest" but stopped short of calling him a suspect. After collecting CCTV footage from the other businesses in the area, detectives observed Patricia getting off the bus, followed by the man who seemed to be stalking her. They eventually came across a recording that showed the killer running through the parking lot. It allowed them to map out his escape route. Even with further analysis, they were still unable to determine who he was, so they turned to the FBI and NFL Films for assistance. Lastly, police released the footage publicly with the hope that somebody would recognize and identify the man. The tactic generated hundreds of tips, one of them from an employee of a bus company who identified the man as Juan Covington, a subcontractor at the hospital where Patricia worked as an x-ray technician. Police reviewed security footage from the hospital's cameras and found that Covington had worn the exact same clothing as the man who had murdered Patricia. Covington was arrested and charged with murder. In the subsequent interrogations, he admitted full responsibility, claiming that he believed Patricia was poisoning him with x-rays, and that he decided to kill her because nobody would believe him. Covington then confessed to killing two other people and severely wounding two more. A ballistic examination concluded that the victims had been shot with guns owned by Covington, thus confirming him as a serial killer. Covington is also considered a suspect in at least two other crimes: the 1997 disappearance of 24-year-old Brenwanda Smith and the 2004 cold case murder of 25-year-old Ann Yuille. While he admitted responsibility for the murders, Covington initially refused to plead guilty, claiming that he was "the chosen one" and he believed his victims to be devils who were trying to harm him. At trial, his attorney noted Covington's history of mental illness and a diagnosis of paranoid schizophrenia in an effort to spare him the death penalty. In the end, Covington pleaded guilty and was given three life terms without parole for the murders plus two 20-to-40-year imprisonment sentences for the attempted murders. He was also ordered to undergo psychiatric counseling before he was eventually transferred to State Correctional Institution – Rockview, where he remains to this day. Patricia left behind a husband and two children. She was 48 years old. #grave #cemetery #mausoleum #graves #cemeteries #cemeteryexplorer #cemeteryexplorers #famous #famouspeople #famousgraves #famousgrave #graveyard #gravephotographer #gravestone #gravestones #taphophile #taphophilia #celebritygraves #murder #murdervictim #murdervictims #murdervictimsawareness #unsolved #unsolvedcases #unsolvedcasefiles #unsolvedcrime #unsolvedcrimes #truecrimetiktok #truecrime #truecrimecommunity #truecrimetok

Cara Quinn was murdered on February 14, 1980. That morning, Cara was running unusually late for school and didn’t leave her house until 9:30am. Her commute to school required her to walk for about two miles on a secluded road. She was never seen alive again. Once it was evident that Cara was missing, the authorities were notified, and a massive search of the area ensued. Cara’s friends were interviewed by police and told them that she was a frequent hitchhiker. After two weeks, Boy Scouts on their way to skate on a pond found Cara’s body in a wooded area about 20 miles from her home. She was partially frozen, fully clothed and lying face down on the ground, with a canvas bag beside her containing some schoolbooks. Initially, police could find no specific injuries or marks on her to suggest she was a victim of foul play, aside from a small neck wound that they theorized had been caused by an animal. Freezing conditions interfered with the collection of physical evidence and Cara’s body was not removed until after midnight. When the coroner was able to perform a more thorough exam, he found that Cara had been shot in the head and neck with a handgun at close range. Two bullets were later found in the ground beneath where Cara’s body was discovered. Police issued an appeal to the public for information and began referring to Cara’s death as an execution-style murder. Four months passed before police got a break. Based on evidence and a few tips, they arrested a man named Martin Wayne Shifflett at gunpoint and charged him with Cara’s murder. At the time of his arrest, he was wanted in four other states on a variety of charges and was on parole from a Connecticut prison for robbery. Shifflett told police that he was driving when he picked Cara up hitchhiking. Then he tied her hands behind her back and sexually assaulted her in the car. After the assault, Shifflett said he forced Cara into the woods and made her lie face down on the ground, then shot her twice in the back of the head with a .38-caliber handgun. Shifflett said he then drove to a store, bought a Valentine’s Day card and candy for his wife, and went home. The following day, Shifflett said he used a blow torch to melt the gun. After he was indicted by a grand jury, Shifflett pleaded not guilty to Cara’s murder. Nearly a year and a half later, Shifflett was found guilty of murder in November 1981, despite continually denying involvement. On December 11, 1981, Judge JoAnne Kulawicz looked directly at Shifflett and told him she would show him no mercy because he had shown none to Cara. She sentenced him to 25 years to life. Cara was 16 years old. #grave #cemetery #mausoleum #graves #cemeteries #cemeteryexplorer #cemeteryexplorers #famous #famouspeople #famousgraves #famousgrave #graveyard #gravephotographer #gravestone #gravestones #taphophile #taphophilia #celebritygraves #murder #murdervictim #murdervictims #murdervictimsawareness #unsolved #unsolvedcases #unsolvedcasefiles #unsolvedcrime #unsolvedcrimes #truecrimetiktok #truecrime #truecrimecommunity #truecrimetok

John Crawford was murdered on August 19, 1985. On August 20, 1985, officer Lawrence Richards was on patrol when he saw smoke coming from a nearby apartment at around 2:20am. Richards ran into the apartment building to alert the residents. He made several attempts to enter the second-floor apartment but was forced back by heavy smoke. When Richards was finally able to enter, he found John's body on the floor, still in his robe as though he was preparing for bed. He had been beaten with a blunt instrument, strangled with an electrical cord, and cut in several places. Firefighters were able to control the blaze in 15 minutes and John's body was removed. The Chief of Police said it was evident that the fire had been deliberately set to cover up the murder. There were no suspects and no motive could be determined. Investigators discovered that John and a female friend had gone to a cocktail party, and later a bar. After leaving the bar at about 11pm, they flagged down a cab. The cab driver dropped the woman at her home, and then headed to John's apartment. Police spent a lot of time with numerous cab companies in an attempt to track down the driver. Because the cab was not dispatched to the bar, but rather flagged down, it was nearly impossible to trace. The consensus was that John had known his killer in some way because there had been no forceable entry to the apartment. They also believed that the cab driver could have noticed something unusual upon dropping him off. In searching the apartment building, investigators noticed that the smoke detector had been pulled out of the basement, possibly to delay fire personnel. Eventually, local police sent all of the files on the case, as well as background information on John, to the FBI. They were looking for a profile of the crime and intel on the type of person who would be a likely suspect. However, it has been 40 years and there are still no answers. Police still believe the cab driver may hold the key to the mystery. John's murder has never been solved. He was 36 years old. #grave #cemetery #mausoleum #graves #cemeteries #cemeteryexplorer #cemeteryexplorers #famous #famouspeople #famousgraves #famousgrave #graveyard #gravephotographer #gravestone #gravestones #taphophile #taphophilia #celebritygraves #murder #murdervictim #murdervictims #murdervictimsawareness #unsolved #unsolvedcases #unsolvedcasefiles #unsolvedcrime #unsolvedcrimes #truecrimetiktok #truecrime #truecrimecommunity #truecrimetok
