Random Daytime Shooting Still A Cold Case
On August 22, 1988 around 0915 in the morning on Route 244 in Pomfret Connecticut a woman was shot for no apparent reason while at a stop sign. The suspect was described as a 28-32 year old white male with hair that covered his ears. He had been driving (at the time) a dark colored, relatively new full size Ford step-side pickup truck
which was in good condition. The woman survived and the case eventually made it's way to the famous TV show, "Unsolved Mysteries." Despite the publicity, Connecticut State Police have never named a suspect.
If you have any information about who this suspect may be, contact the Connecticut State Police at (860)886-6603 or (860)685-8190. |

Deceased Doctor Accused of Molesting Hundreds of Children
   
In May of 2007 a couple in West Hartford were during renovations in the basement of their home when they came upon a startling discovery. After peeling open a part of the wall they found a compartment that contained over 100 rolls of film and fifty thousand slides. The images were of child pornography. Police knew that a prior owner of the house, Doctor George Reardon had several accusations of child molestation leveled against him a decade ago. He was stripped of his right to practice medicine but charges were never filed because the statute of limitations had expired. What amazed Police was that there are an estimated count of several hundred victims (male and female) from the nineteen fifties to the early nineties. Reardon died in 1998. Below are three pictures of adult men that were seen in photos and slides of George Reardon. The men are all believed to be filmed during the seventies while having sex with children. They were believed to be in their thirties when the acts occurred. It is not known if Reardon knew these men or just had these photos in his possession. If you know of anyone that was victimized by George Reardon or know these men, please contact the West Hartford Police department at 860-523-5203. Reardon lived in West Hartford but it is believed that he may not have been the only pedophile preying on neighborhood children. Since 1999 there have been lawsuits filed against two former administrators (Ellis and Ronco)in the West Hartford Public School system for sexual assault and misconduct. The claims all took place in the 1970s though in the case of Ellis things could have started with other victims in the 1950s. Both administrators have long since retired from the School System. If you or anyone else was a victim of sexual misconduct from someone in the West Hartford School system (King Philip Junior High School from 1955 to 1982) please contact the website administrator at unsolvedct@hotmail.com We can put in you in contact with the appropriate people.
