In 1948, an unidentified man was found dead on Somerton Beach in Adelaide, Australia. He had no identification, and the labels had been removed from his clothing. Police found a tiny piece of paper hidden in a pocket containing the words “Tamám Shud”, meaning “ended” or “finished.” The phrase came from a rare copy of The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám, which investigators eventually traced to a book found in a nearby car. For decades, nobody knew who the man was or why he had died. The mystery became one of Australia’s most famous unsolved cases. In 2022, researchers used DNA genealogy to identify him as Carl “Charles” Webb, a 43-year-old electrical engineer from Melbourne.

In 1996, a case involving a 34-year-old teacher shocked the United States. Mary Kay Letourneau was a teacher in Washington State when authorities discovered that she had been sexually abusing one of her students, who was 12 when the abuse began.

They had two daughters together, Austyn and Georgia. Letourneau also had four children from a previous marriage. Letourneau died in 2020 at the age of 58.
