Murders, Mysteries, and Misdemeanors in Oregon

Against the backdrop of majestic mountains, rivers, and streams that showcase Oregon's beauty lie many true crime stories. Hidden amongst the otherwise serene landscape are murderers and serial killers. Read about a man who decapitated his wife and dumped her body and the bodies of their children on Sauvie Island; a married couple on their second honeymoon who murdered ten people across three states; a sniper who shot and killed a two-time Olympian sprinter at the University of Oregon's Autzen Stadium; a man buried alive the day before he was scheduled to testify in court; and tourists from Germany who were murdered along the Oregon coast.
Also featured in this book are cases that that took years to solve, including a case where a bag of peanuts identified a murderer nearly forty years after the crime; a child who was identified decades after he was found dead in a creek; and how a small amount of blood on a dart gun brought justice to a case nearly fifty years after the murder took place.
Within the pages of this book are cold cases still waiting to be solved.
