Reddit is home to many mystery and crime-solving communities. Subreddits filled with thousands of people, sharing theories and digging deep in the hopes of cracking cases. Unfortunately though when you get a bunch of online amateur investigative journalists together, problems arise. Reddit is notorious for several high-profile examples in which users of the site falsely accused innocent people of crimes they didn't commit, resulting in slanderous claims and damages. These high-profile screw-ups have come to tarnish the site's reputation as a crime-solving hub in recent years.
"We Did It Reddit!'
However, don't discount Redditors altogether, as on rare occasions members of its community actually come together and make miracles happen. Today I'll be telling you the stories behind three cases that Redditors actually solved. Instances, where online sleuthing resulted in a victim of a hit and run getting justice, an illegal artist being punished, and the family of a missing boy given closure. These are the times when Reddit got it right.

That headlight assembly deal was just crazy. Dude had the truck nailed down to basically the make, model, and almost the year from a single broken part. Some heroes don’t wear capes. Some are headlight inspectors that single handedly solve a zero witness fatal hit and run.

If you add up all the mid 80’s Silverado’s and GMC Sierra’s with that bezel, you’d know that the police couldn’t possibly use that as their only way of finding the suspect. It’s essentially the same as the police finding a shoe impression, and Reddit properly identifying a Nike swoosh.

I agree. My wife’s mother, who was perfectly healthy and active, and definitely had another few decades left. was killed by a distracted driver on his phone. Killer had a record of DUI’s, possessing controlled substances and distracted driving a mile long, “sentenced” to slap on the wrist after slap on the wrist. He was sent to rehab five different times. Never spent more than 3 days in jail at a time until he killed somebody. They gave him 8 years for the fatal wreck which seemed about right but he’s eligible for parole after only a year. He destroyed their family, the grief eventually killed my wife’s father, and a whole generation of grandkids don’t get to see their grandparents. And he may only spend a year or two in prison. A little crazy given how nonviolent offenders get sentenced to much longer sentences all the time in the US.

My mother had a cousin who was murdered by a hit and run driver. Yea, I said murdered. This car driver just decided to deliberately run down a child riding his bike. Police investigated and found that the driver had been involved in several "accidents" involving pedestrians. He finally admitted that the "accidents" were deliberate because he liked killing people, and as fatal pedestrian accidents happen all the time, he figured no one would notice. The dude was a straight up serial killer. And such a thing is not that rare. As a result my grandmother refused to let my mother ride a bike. She never did learn. Then, as an adult I was deliberately run down riding my bike. Getting hit by a car does not feel good, I can tell you.

I can't even imagine how Jason's family felt at the news that he had been gone all of that time. His mother had thought that he had simply been deeply estranged... but he'd been dead for decades. That's so heartbreaking, but to finally have closure and be able to know where he rests must've been a huge relief. It's incredible that these people were able to give him back his name, since without their help, his family might not've ever known what became of their little boy. Rest easy, Jason. You are known, and you are loved.

Reddit giving the cold case fresh publicity is fantastic, but in my opinion the real heroes of the Grateful Doe case are the forensic artists at the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children. They do invaluable and incredibly difficult work, aging up/recreating existing images for young people like Jason Callahan in hopes that they might be found or at least identified. Without them, it's likely he never would have been recognized.

The first story reminds me of my boyfriend since he is a cyclist and was ran down by a drunk driver. She ran into him and dragged his unconscious body over a mile before he dislodged, and she just left him. Luckily, he survived, but he was touch and go for a while, having to be put into a medically-induced coma I think because of the bleeding in his brain. Anyway though, anytime I hear of hit and runs ESPECIALLY when it's a cyclist that is hit, it brings me back to that and how we almost lost him. We were lucky. He was lucky. And sadly, someone else lost their life instead. And it makes me feel so awful for these people to lose a loved one, especially knowing how I could barely keep it together thinking my loved one was about to die

Jerry died in august of the same year. The last thing these guys saw was one of the last times that Jerry ever performed. I like to imagine that they’re chillin in heaven together

I was at those shows. A couple people were struck by lightning out in the parking lot on the second day. At the Deer Creek (Indiana) shows that followed, people without tickets crashed the gates and caused the following night’s show to be cancelled. Then Jerry died a few weeks later. Summer ‘95 felt cursed. The last song they played at RFK that year was Brokedown Palace. If you don’t know it, have a listen (the studio version off of the American Beauty album). It’s a gorgeous, bittersweet, and fitting song, and it’s the last tune Jason heard Jerry sing. (me, too.)

I feel like that first case is a prime example of the way the internet should be used to solve crime. The internet does not have the collective intelligence to actually put pieces of evidence together, but because of those numbers they have the ability to brute Force research into certain clues. Theoretically this could one day be achieved by a web crawling AI of some kind, but until that happens the internet's probably the closest alternative.

Wow! I would love to witness the collective "oh fukk" look on criminals faces hearing that this new AI detective was soon to be in operation. Followed by some crazy claim like it can examine a case,it's evidence, suspects,location, and match all data points to come up with a theory of how the crime was committed,when, likely motive, planned or impulsive, and the perps name/number/address and possible hideouts. Then a map of all movements , receipts and CCTV of all stops and transactions,and can give the time the crime began and ended accurate down to the second. All that would take approximately seven seconds because it's doing two hundred simultaneously. Only examining one crime would milliseconds. The complete panic and paranoia that would instantly overcome criminals, especially those that have basically gotten away with their crimes because of wrongful convictions or cases gone cold. Pandemonium! Someone should make this announcement as a joke/"social experiment" and guilty people will show themselves lol . Even funnier claim this tech is too much power for the government to weild so it'll be released for free to the public to use .lol so many dikks getting cut off lol. It's a scary thought experiment and I had to throw in some humor, but could you imagine getting arrested suddenly for receiving stolen property, transporting stolen property across state lines, conspiracy and being in possession of a firearm during commission of a crime. You later learn it's from years ago when you worked as a supply driver for a lumber yard...your boss sent you to get a load right over the state line and being it back. You have a carry permit and choose to carry when driving the supply truck for protection. The problem is that your old boss never paid for that load of material...AI found it and created a warrant. Imagine getting a mailbox full of traffic tickets for every little infraction throughout your life. You ever bought illicit substances? Using the your phone to make contact, driving your vehicle to the meet... bringing your tracking devi....uhhhh sorry phone along. Scariest of all is your significant other having access to a AI supercomputer just to find petty shit you lied about. "Remember Monday like wight years ago, it was February 7th.I asked you if you were free to have lunch at Chick-fil-A. You said you were just going to work through lunch but turns out you had tacos with your boss!!!! Unbelievable!

Dude, the car nuts on Reddit can literally identify ANY car from the tiniest and random pieces from the car. Never underestimate them. Lol They never fail to blow my mind with every identification.

Yeah, it was weird. In Turkey, when you are driving the car as a drunk or high, if you crash and kill someone, it's accepted as a qualified murder crime. You get a 30-year prison sentence without any penalty reduction.

@@Kris-wo4pj train cars are left in train yards (which are usually very quiet and desolate at night) to be filled with new cargo. They stay stationary for long periods, have large surfaces and the yards aren't usually next to populated areas. That's why you see the art on trains. Some good, some bad. It's just practice. Don't do it at a holy place or a national park. Carving into trees is different. Really not harming the tree. (Not sure if it was you talking about it, just putting my 2 cents in here.)

What's really cool about them is that they're super specialized so they focus on cases of missing persons, in cars, near water and follow the likely paths of the victim. They're very experienced with the sonar imaging so can find things that LE isn't trained for. They also encourage others and include as much teaching as they can. Love watching them do their work! 👍🍍

I had a scenario scarily similar to the first story. In 2014 my best friend was tragically killed in a hit and run accident. However in this incident the culprit was never found and cops did very little to help. The only reason I made it through all of that was (at the time) I had really good friends to help me through it.
