These 4 horrific murders near a University campus in Moscow, Idaho Moscow PD Rules Out Oregon Hyundai, Sees No Connection To Student Murders (https://www.tmz.com/2022/12/21/moscow-police-rule-out-oregon-hyundai-student-murder-idaho/) bring back memories of my then Earl Wooster High School teacher's daughter's murder on my birthday of 2-24 in 1976 near the University of Nevada, Reno campus. The 2-24-1976 murder was across the street from the Nursing College at UNR. The victim had been a nursing student at the University of Nevada, Reno.
The homicide investigators looked at the Earl Wooster HS students of this English teacher but did not find anything worth pursuing. I was one of these students and got a small Memorial Scholarship in the daughter's name as did another boy in her English class in 1976. I used it at the University of Nevada, Reno in 1976-1977.
They sought a solution to the crime but never got one until a woman in a mental institution in Louisiana made a confession about the murder to a fellow inmate in order to get a better room with no one else in it. Or something like that. This was in 1979. She was eventually convicted of the murder of the nursing student.
It turned out to be the wrong person after a DNA test was done on a cigarette found at the scene around 2014 which led to a convicted rapist in an Oregon prison. He also turned out to be the killer of a number of women in the San Francisco Bay area. These murders were in early 1976.
These cases near universities bring in a lot of people interested in the case but also many false leads and possible tainting of the cases and gifts to the defense attorneys.
And also fear from people on the campus that the killer is still around. I heard that rather often in the period before the case was "solved" in 1979 when I was on that campus. But if you get the wrong person the real murderer is still out there and an innocent person is suffering in prison.
I did develop an interest in materials to help people in these kind of situations while I earned two BAs at the University of Nevada, Reno and a MA in Librarianship and Information Management from the U of Denver and a law degree from the U of MN.
I do hope that there is stuff available up in Moscow, Idaho for those drawn into this investigation for whatever reason. I would try to put myself in the shoes of someone interested in the legal system like I was back in Reno, Nevada and look at what was in the local libraries and the like and places I visited but have never been to Moscow, Idaho.
