Latest foot find a hoax!
The sixth foot found in British Columbia does not belong to a human, a Canadian newspaper is reporting.
Instead, someone stuffed an animal’s skeletonized foot into a sock, slipped it into a black shoe and apparently planted it near the shore.
It’s a sick practical joke that’s light years away from funny.
Officials still don’t know where the five real feet came from, although at least four of them seem show no signs of tool marks. That suggests the feet may have detached from bodies during decomposition and drifted to land, floating in buoyant shoes.

I’m not obsessed with this. Really.
But ANOTHER foot has been found in British Columbia.
This is the second one this week and the sixth foot overall. The story below is a good one with more description of the foot than other stories. It suggests the foot was severed, rather than simply coming loose due to decomposition.

Another foot?
Someone out there has a foot fetish … of the worst kind.
A fifth foot has washed up on Canadian shores, this time in Metro Vancouver. The previous four were all right feet; this one’s a left foot. No word on if it matches any of the others.
Are all of these feet linked somehow? Or is it simply an astonishing coincidence? What do you think?

New and improved
It’s finally here.
Starting Sunday, check out the new, improved Cold Case Oklahoma Web site at www.coldcaseok.com. (Note the new URL; it’s coldcaseok now, not coldcaseokc.)
The site combines all the content of the old site with a new look that’s easier to navigate. Watch the Cold Case videos on a much larger screen, and talk back on the Cold Case blog. Be sure to add the new site to your Favorites list.
We’re still working out some bugs — quite a few of them, actually. Please let us know of any problems you encounter with the site so we can get them fixed.
The site debuts Sunday with the story of Pamela Dawn Tinsley, 19, who vanished from Lake Overholser on April 13, 1986. Tinsley hasn’t been seen since, but armed with new evidence from a mystery caller, police think they may soon be able to find her body — and her killers.
