Nearly 40 years a Penn Hills and Wilkinsburg Murder of 2 young women Barabra Jean Lewis 31 aand beth Lynn barr 6 goes unsolved.

1977 the year I graduated from Carrick High School and a very scary time in Western Pa. in general with so many unsolved murders in late 70's and early 80's as serial killers prowled about the area.
I was recently reading the local Tribune Review and came about 2 murders now long time cold cases .of  Barbara Jean Lewis 31 , and Beth Barr 6,

While researching these 2 cases I found there where 4 young women  and girls with in 5 months murdered. and to make things even creepier I did electrical work at the civic assoc. in late 80's and never even knew about the murder or fact that Barbara Lewis body was dumped there. which is also right next to the now closed Church Hill Valley Country Club.

 At the same time Edward Wayne Edwards was roaming the area  who I have talked about in a previous blog post

There where so many young women and girls murdered during the late 70's and early 80's with so many of them never solved and in some cases still missing  police still believe none of them where connected.
But lay them all out on a map and the dates and the link sure as hell looks like they are.Call me crazy
 but like I have said in the past I do believe there is a serial killer or killers  possibly generational family of them  passed down one to the other who have been operating in this area for a very long time and possibly regionally and nationally.
just look at the whole case of the supposed smiley face killers  I wrote about a while back.

Now that same pattern seems to be happening to young men as several have just up and disappeared just in the Penn hills area.  Just what is going on? good question.  There is now the search for a 22 yr old male nurse going on in Pittsburgh's South side as you read this blog. which I will be posting on shortly who unfortunately I feel is going to end in sadness and mystery as well.

A UFO observed sitting over the Highland Park Reservoir in Pittsburgh in 1970's over 30 people claim they saw it

Pennsylvania seems to be a hot bed for Bigfoot and UFO sightings

http://ufoexperiences.blogspot.com/2005/10/bigfoot-and-ufo-sightings-in-laurel.html

 One of the supposed sightings happened right here in the city at Pittsburgh's Highland Park Reservoir  in the Eastern part of the city
March 1st 1978

Now I have seen plenty of strange goings on in the sky at night most of which are easily explainable
but in this case the size of the object they say was over the reservoir has to make you wonder.
In the article they claim it was bigger than reservoir  itself  and over 30 people claim to have eventually seen it   or the fast moving lights thru the sky an hour earlier even at 10PM at night there are still many people out and all the cars coming over the near by Highland Park Bridge should have also seen it so you would think there would have been more reports.
So what was it? Hard to tell and in the mean time you think local airport radar would have picked it up but there where no reports in news it did.

So was it some kind of secret spy craft from a government agency  ? Well thats always possible after seeing the stealth fighter for the first time at Beaver County Air Show I can see why people thought it was a UFO  creep-ed me out first time I saw it.

But for now it remains a mystery which some day will have an answer we can only hope.

In the mean time check out Stan Gordon's  web site he is from Westmoreland county and has been collecting UFO and other strange anomaly reports for many years.
