Missing but not forgotten update on Austin Cornia of Utah. Missing but not forgotten Kit Mora of Washington State.
Main Case: 28 year old Aaron Scheerhorn had everything going for him until one night in December 2010, he was out in the Montrose section (the gayborhood) of Houston Texas and was attacked by a well dressed, tall, large black man with a knife. Aaron ran to the the front of The Blur Bar. The bouncers outside refused to let Aaron in, even after he showed them his chest stab wound. Talking to the bouncers gave his killer time to catch up with Aaron.
True Crime Quickie is from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 2022. 41 year old Eric Pope was hit in his face by a bouncer at Tabu Bar, an LGBTQ nightclub. Once hit, he fell to the ground hitting his head on the cement. This case is very much like the Christopher McKinney case from Louisville, Kentucky.
