Bodies of Evidence (True Crime Collection): From the Case Files of Notorious USA (Volume 1)

The Pacific Northwest is home to the worldâ€™s most famous serial killers, as well as more than its share of parents who kill their children, teenagers who kill their parents, women who marry for money, naughty teachers, Americaâ€™s first female serial killer, and even a few who are wrongly imprisoned. New York Times bestselling author Gregg Olsen (â€œIf Loving You Is Wrong,â€ â€œStarvation Heightsâ€) and veteran journalist Rebecca Morris (â€œTed and Ann â€“ The Mystery of a Missing Child and Her Neighbor Ted Bundyâ€), take a new look at the Northwestâ€™s most notorious crimes. Many of them made history. Two â€“ Ted Bundyâ€™s killings and Mary Kay Letourneauâ€™s teacher sex scandal â€“ made Time magazineâ€™s list of the top crimes of the 20th century. Some are lesser known or have taken on new importance, such as one of the countryâ€™s first school shootings, in Moses Lake, Washington. Cases include: Washington Barry Loukaitis â€“ Before Sandy Hook and Columbine, there was Frontier Middle School in Moses Lake, Washington. Rosalina Misina Mendoza Dugeno Manthie Edmondson â€“ She had many last names as she married and killed one husband after another. Ruth Neslund â€“ Her husband thought captaining a huge freighter right into the West Seattle Bridge was the worst that could happen to him. It wasnâ€™t. Mary Kay LeTourneau â€“ She said they were â€œsoul mates.â€ He made a bet with another student that he would sleep with her. Ted Bundy â€“ Thereâ€™s only one â€œTedâ€ and he remains a part of our lives. Now weâ€™ve learned more about his. Kenneth Bianchi â€“ Los Angelesâ€™ most terrifying murders were finally solved 1,200 miles north in Bellingham, Washington. With a bonus essay by Washington native Gregg Olsen on growing up in the shadow of serial killers Ted Bundy, Gary Ridgway, and Robert Lee Yates, Jr. Oregon Angela McAnulty â€“ The mother tortured her teenage daughter until it was too late to save her. Kyron Horman â€“ The boy with the toothy grin disappeared June 4, 2010. Why hasnâ€™t his step-mother been charged? Jeannace Freeman and Gertrude Jackson â€“ Central Oregon was as shocked by their lesbian affair as it was by the murder of Jacksonâ€™s two children. Christian Longo â€“ He failed in his own life, so he killed his family and assumed someone elseâ€™s. With two bonus essays, one by Rebecca Morris about coming of age in Oregon as serial killers trolled I-5, and one about Gregg Olsenâ€™s â€œdateâ€ with Oregonâ€™s most notorious murderer, Diane Downs. Idaho Shasta Groene â€“ the brave little girl was the only survivor of a random murder and kidnapping in Coeur dâ€™Alene. Jeralee Underwood â€“ the eleven-year-old had the bad luck to meet a ruthless killer as she performed her favorite task of the day, delivering newspapers to her Pocatello neighborhood. Robin Row â€“ the only woman on Idahoâ€™s Death Row, she set fires that killed her children soon after buying life insurance on them. Angie Dodge â€“ Carol Dodge grieved her daughterâ€™s murder for years, until she became convinced the police had coerced a confession and convicted the wrong man. Now sheâ€™s working for Christopher Tappâ€™s release. Lyda Trueblood â€“ Americaâ€™s first female serial killer liked to bake apple pies. She sprinkled in a secret ingredient â€“ arsenic. Sarah Johnson â€“ The teenager with the blonde ponytail shot her parents with a rifle, then hid her blood-spattered pink bathrobe in the family garbage. With a bonus essay from Olsen, author of the 2005 Idaho Book of the Year, The Deep Dark â€“ Disaster and Redemption in Americaâ€™s Richest Silver Mine.
