This episode is so sad. The Sodders’ house was deliberately burned down, and the local government was in on it.

Even though the case is in north virginia, the name of the city with the same name is hinted, like it’s indirectly saying thats where the man came from: Fayetteville. Instead of outright saying Fayetteville, North Virginia, it’s using the 35” coordinate of a place that coincidentally has the same name that is required to cross a border. Maybe they were taken to Illinois, and the letter is saying 35” for someone to find the city of the same name, the boy is from Fayatteville

The father was probably a Marxist or someone who was relatively left-wing, who fled Italy because of fascism, like a lot of Italian emigrants (many artists and Trade Unionists left Italy during WW2). He may have thought that he could be more outspoken about the atrocities under Mussolini in America (free country, etc), particularly after Mussolini was executed which had already happened around the time of this case. But his community was mainly Italian and probably fascist. It's desperately sad.

@emeraldosamudra856

7 жыл бұрын

I can see at this point where the case remain unsolved is because probably at that time immigrants especially Italian residing in the US were treated "unfairly" by the us gov. or locals.. so i agree with the term that this has something to do with class relations and societal conflicts among both countries as we can see at that times the world war still ongoing and societal conflicts are occurring everywhere. we can conclude that the family couldn't get much help from the authorities like the federal bureaucracy because i can say that they all working up together to cover up the case of the missing children and that feds and FBI were corrupted as well as they try to really tear down the family.. i really hope the parents could find the truth in the heaven.. probably the most saddened tragic case of all time

13:40 This photograph is the reason I believe the children must've survived... In a True Crime Podcast, Sylvia (the youngest sister) gave an interview mentioning that Louis gave his brother Maurice the nickname "Frankie"... so Louis might've actually sent this picture to his mother as hint that he was still alive. Maybe they were scared to directly contact the family? Some people online said that Ilil could actually be supposed to stand for "Illinois". Or that the numbers could be a zipcode. (Car plate is unlikely).

Interesting fact: Jennie Sodder had a brother named Frank Cipriani. He was from Fayetteville and according to his obituary owned a trucking business like George. He was the relative that lived in Florida that was investigated because of the witness report of the children seen in cars with Florida licence plates. The picture of Louis was specifically addressed to Jennie and said “brother Frankie”. I’m surprised the Sodders didn’t have him investigated more.

i just keep thinking 'how did the parents survive this incident emotionally?' like if parents lose one child they have so much diffeculty, yet can you imagine the guilt and burden they probably felt every single day after the incident? 5 children.. they lost 5 children. i can't even imagine how they continued living after that.

The children were probably told their siblings would be murdered if they ever told anyone

more like the mysterious disappearance of the watcher fanbase

The upsetting part of this story is that George sodder had to live the rest of his life with the thought of what happened to his children.

Mafia. The Mafia 100% paid off the key people in the town. The Mafia were gaining power fast following Prohibition, and gained some influence over the government following WWII (where essentially the US used the Mafia in Sicily to gain power back from Mussolini). The Sodders lived in a town with a fairly large Italian population. I cannot think of an adversary as powerful as the Mafia, or another organisation that has a history of adopting and selling out children to punish parents. Unquestionably a shady Mafia play.

I am 100% convinced they were kidnapped and members of the police and fire departments were covering it up - possibly because they were either involved or payed off. There is also evidence of complete incompetence too, with 10:46 being evidence that the Fire chief was not mentally healthy... There is also evidence that the officials were just too lazy to want to deal with a big kidnapping and arson case - after all, the operator for the emergency line did not answer, and the fire department took 7 hours to arrive.

I really admire the parents, specially the father who investigated the tips and clues that could possibly lead to his missing children :(

Assuming the kids were kidnapped, that must've occurred before the fire. When Ryan said George tried to go back for them but the staircase was on fire, it's very unlikely that the remaining kids would've survived a possible escape or survived had they have burned. Same goes for the kidnapper (again assuming this was their fate). The hour between the mother hearing the noise on the ceiling and waking up to smoke must've been when the kids got kidnapped.

The fire department was a volunteer fire department. The phone tree system that the volunteer fire department used to notify the volunteers of an emergency, was not very effective. However, I believe, the main reason that it took the fire department so long to get there was because while the fire chief had access to the firetruck, he did not know how to drive it.
