Lost Music Video: The first music video for Anytime You Need a Friend by Mariah Carey

On May 24, 1994, American singer and songwriter Mariah Carey released her third studio album Music Box. The song Anytime You Need a Friend was the fifth and final single from the album. The gospel-infused song would then release a music video featuring for the first time Mariah Carey with straight hair instead of her signature curly. This music video was however not what was originally supposed to be released. 

The first music video was never released and was scrapped. It's unknown publicly why this music was scrapped. It doesn't show any semblance to what was released and possibly not the look they wanted for it. ET released some behind the scenes from music videos. These are what looks like Mariah in a long gown with a castle theme. While the final music video was based in a city.

Medical Mysteries: Logan Carroll

 

On April 6, 1995, Todd and Tami Caroll went to the hospital to give birth to their third child. They were worried for the child though as their second, Megan, was stillborn. They would get tests and an ultrasound and everything seemed to be normal. The doctors would induce labor at 8:45 a.m. Contractions would grow stronger and more frequent throughout the day and by 4:30 she would begin to give birth. The fetal monitor would show a normal heartbeat but when she began to push it would go down. At 4:42 their son, Logan would be born without a heartbeat.

CPR was done on the newborn and doctors and an emergency team tried their best to save his life. After 15 minutes though there was no heartbeat or signs of brain activity. At 5:15 Logan would be pronounced dead and his parents and family grieved the loss of another child.

Doctors and nurses would take pictures of Logan with his family. This was when Tami's sister heard a gasping noise from him. It was initially believed to have been a reflex as it had been 40 minutes after death. Tami's mother was holding the small child when she realized that he was getting warmer. A nurse would soon realize Logan had a heart rate, and then his Doctor determined he was in fact alive.

It was a miracle as 6 doctors and 8 nurses had determined he had died, but somehow was alive. In just a few hours he was seen as a happy healthy baby. There was brain damage and confined to a wheelchair. He would pass away in 2020 but was said to have lived a happy life with his family.

Disappearance of Robin Reed

 

On January 24, 1995, 15-year-old Robin Reed was last seen jumping off of the Golden Gate Bridge in Petaluma, California. He had left a suicide note behind stating he felt unwanted. He had recently told friends that he was gay, but did not come out to his parents though they suspected it. 

His parents stated that he was being bullied at Petaluma Highschool. He had a failing grade on his report card and told his parents about the bullying. He said that he was called derogatory names and picked on about his sexuality that he wasn't even out about though it was suspected. It would have probably been worse if they actually knew about it. At one point he told his mom, "Mom, I'm a really normal and healthy 15-year-old because my hormones are raging right now. But I hate being sexual. My life is going so well and I'm really happy except for my hormones. I hate them. It's so confusing. I don't even know if I'm straight or not."

His body was never recovered and is unlikely that he survived the jump. After his death, students at his high school created a Gay/Straight Alliance in his memory.

Murder of Leah Ulbrich

Around 4:49 a.m. on October 29, 1995 Law enforcement was receiving calls of a woman, 24-year-old Leah Ulbrich, being dragged by a vehicle from Locust St. west on Elliot St. toward Wethersfield Ave. in Hartford, Connecticut. One caller gave the car description as similar to a 1995 or a recent year Nissan Maxima or similar make. Another caller, an unidentified female, made a call using a fire emergency telephone at the coroner of Elliot St. and Wethersfield Ave. and saw the woman being dragged. 

Prior to the 911 calls, a Hartford Police officer patrolled north on Wethersfield Ave. near Elliot St. in a marked cruiser. They spotted a small dark-colored car enter Wethersfield Ave from Elliot St. He spotted that it was dragging something and did not have its headlights on. The officer pursued the vehicle but did not catch up to it. He then followed a trail of liquid left on the pavement that lead to the area of Jordan Ln near Ridge Rd. 

The officer would then find Leah's body lying against the northern curb of Jordan Lane. It would be determined that she would die due to extensive blunt trauma from being dragged by the vehicle for over 4 miles.It was believed that she was either holding onto a seat belt or was hooked onto it. That door will be damaged as it was open during the drag. There was no way the driver did not know. It's likely she was dragged starting on Elliot St. as her shoes were left parallel next to each other on the road as if they fell off when she first started getting dragged.
