  1. Hello again! Long time no see lol. I know this post is more than two years old, but I was wondering, the two girls found in Clark County in Aug. 1974 referenced on page 9 of the pdf, who at the time of this interview they had a good suspect for — do you know who they’re referring to?
    (Also — pg.s 12-15, all that talk about locations and getting the mics set up better and all that, then suddenly stating that he beheaded poor Georgann and dumped her head away from her body! Talk about whiplash!)
    There’s also pg.s 31-32 of the pdf that I’m wondering about. So there’s the stewardesses, Lisa Wick & Lonnie Trumbull, who I think are also referenced on pg. 32 with the “Queen Ann Hill” mention. The two girls in the state park are Katherine Merry Devine & Brenda Joy Baker. The little girl in Tacoma is Ann Marie Burr, right? I’m assuming she’s also the blanked out name on pgs68-9? But I’m wondering who are the other two girls referenced, on pgs31-2, the girl “in Bellingham in the river strangled in 1970” and the girl “in 1971, Thurston County”? Regarding general crimes that could be the second one I know there’s Patricia K. Garrison in Olympia, but she was 1970…

    1. Hi! I love that you reached out to me, you can email me anytime. I will help you in any way that I can.

      (1) I’m not sure of the suspect they’re referring to, however I do have a few documents from the King County Sheriff’s about different suspects. They might be in there… and this might be helpful: Tipsheets related to the Ted Bundy Investigation: Information from the King County Sheriff’s Archives, Part One. | Another Bundy Blog.

      (2) The interview where he’s talking about Georgann… there’s a part of it that will stay with me for the rest of my life, even if I lose interest in true crime I will still remember him whispering: ‘the Hawkins girls head… was severed and taken up the road…” Just, chills…

      (3) As far as “the gal up in Bellingham in the river, strangled in 1970,” I have no idea who that is but if I do find out I will let you know. I know there was a girl in Thurston County the Thurston County Sheriff’s Department wouldn’t give me any information about (not even her name), I’m wondering if that is her. If I ever do find out anymore information I will be in touch.

      Also, yes, I do think it was Lisa Wick and Lonnie Trumbull they are referring on page 32, and the two girls in the state park (Margaret McKinney) were Kathy Devine and Brenda Baker (and the little girl in Tacoma was Ann Marie Burr). I have case files from Devine/Baker and I’m waiting for documents from the Seattle PD for the flight attendants. The Sheriff’s Department in Tacoma denied my request for Ann Marie’s case files, but interestingly enough the clerk personally called me and seemed interested in why I was researching her (she said I was the third request she had in less than a month and she wanted to know why there was so much sudden interest in a 60 year old case).

      Please let me know if I can help with anything else.

  2. This is meant as a follow-up to my most recent comment, but I realized who was meant by the two 1974 Clark County skeletons mentioned on pg.9! Carol Platt Valenzuela, who is the one who went missing on Aug. 2, 1974, and Martha Morrison. And then the suspect is probably Warren Lee Forrest, as he was suspected around that time as well long before he was officially charged and convicted
