| - Thomas Wright was a high school teacher who was killed by the Ghost Rider.
- Thomas Wright was a young senator who represented an unknown state. While idealistic, he was not strong enough to resist peer pressure, especially when it came from the corrupt Senator Jaspar Crow. When his fiance, Wendy Foster, called him a coward and threatened to break off their engagement if he did not grow a backbone, Thomas found the courage to oppose Crow's pork-ridden dam appropriations bill. In retaliation, Senator Crow hired gangsters to dispose of him and arranged to have his ally to cast a vote in Thomas' place.
- Details: On September 16, 1995, Thomas Wright had a horrific nightmare about his mother, a deputy sheriff named Doris Smith. In the nightmare, he saw his mother being attacked by a prisoner that she was transporting, and that the woman was trying to take Doris's gun and then a shot rang out and Thomas woke up. Thomas didn't know who was shot, but believed that his mother might have died, and began to pray for her. Thomas and his mother Doris's bond was extremely close ever since he was little, and that the bond may cause one to feel the other's pain.

| - Details: On September 16, 1995, Thomas Wright had a horrific nightmare about his mother, a deputy sheriff named Doris Smith. In the nightmare, he saw his mother being attacked by a prisoner that she was transporting, and that the woman was trying to take Doris's gun and then a shot rang out and Thomas woke up. Thomas didn't know who was shot, but believed that his mother might have died, and began to pray for her. Thomas and his mother Doris's bond was extremely close ever since he was little, and that the bond may cause one to feel the other's pain. The next day, Doris was transporting an inmate that was serving a one year sentence for writing bad checks, from one jail to another that lasted four hours. While they were on Highway 4 near Laddonia, Missouri, events would unfold just like in Thomas's nightmare. Doris began talking to the woman at around 6pm when the squad car stopped and the prisoner began to attack Doris. The woman bit Doris in the hand and then struck her in the head with an object in the front seat. She slipped her hands out of the handcuffs and went to grab Doris's gun, and the two began fighting to gain control of the gun. Then, out of nowhere, two men wearing shorts and white t-shirts appeared, and they distracted Doris's attacker and were able to relinquish her control on the gun. The two men then helped Doris put handcuffs back on the inmate and put her back in the car. Some believe that the two men appeared there by coincidence, but Thomas and Doris believe that some mysterious unknown force was at work. By the time that Doris was able to get the inmate back in the car, the two men had disappeared and Doris wants to thank them for saving her life. The two men have never been found, but the only clues to their identity were that they were two white males driving in a blue pre-1995 Chevy CK pickup truck with tinted windows and an extended cab, and was towing a blue-and-white boat. Extra Notes: The case was featured as a part of the May 28, 1999 episode. Results: Unsolved Links: None

In retaliation, Senator Crow hired gangsters to dispose of him and arranged to have his ally to cast a vote in Thomas' place. The plan would have worked perfectly if Black Condor didn't spot the dying senator while he was on patrol. Thomas and Black Condor were physically identical, which allowed the flying hero to vote against Senator Crow's bill in his place. Black Condor took Thomas to Wendy's father, Dr. Foster, but the doctor was unable to save his life. With Thomas dead, Dr. Foster persuaded Black Condor to take Wright's place full-time. Wendy and all of Thomas' friends and colleagues had no idea he's been replaced. Black Condor proved to be more courageous and outgoing than Thomas ever was.
