This site is not like a typical "Unsolved" True Crime site that pretends that the case is still unsolved. This case IS solved. We know who the Mad Trapper was.
His identity has been out there since the 80s and was rediscovered in the 2010s. 

What we will try to do is explain how and why this mystery is still a mystery.

We'll start by telling the story of what really happened by publishing, for the first time, the investigative field report of RCMP constable William Carter, and the first news report accusing a North Dakota native as the real Mad Trapper, when we find them. Until then, we can speculate from what we know about the man known as Albert Johnson from the genealogical records detailed in the book Webhunt.
