Benton County Sheriff's deputies hurried to the river. The body had been tied, by nylon cord and copper wire, to a heavy automobile transmission and dumped into the fiver. Deputies removed the victim and later discovered she was Linda Salee, the Portland girl who had disappeared from Lloyd Center. On a hunch there may be more bodies nearby, reserve sheriff's divers dragged the river. Two days later, they found the body of Karen Sprinker -- only about 50 feet from where Salee's body was found. Sprinker's body also was weighted down, with the head of a 6-cylinder car engine. Nylon cord was used to tie the body to the engine. See less

Born in South Dakota during January 1939, Brudos moved to California with his family, as a child. He grew up with a deep, abiding hatred for his domineering mother and a strange, precocious lust for women's shoes. Discovering a pair of high-heels at the local dump, he brought them home, where they were confiscated and burned by his mother . By the time he entered first grade, Brudos was stealing shoes from his sister; at age sixteen, now living in Oregon, he branched out into burglary, making off with shoes from neighboring homes, sometimes snatching women's undergarments from clothes lines. In 1956, at seventeen, Brudos beat up a girl who resisted his crude advances on a date, winding up in juvenile court. Ordered to visit the state hospital in Salem, as an out-patient, while continuing his high school education, Brudos apparently gained nothing from therapy. Joining the army in March 1959, he was troubled by dreams of a woman creeping into his bed at night. A chat with an army... See less

Jan Susan Whitney was the first of the three women whose deaths would be attributed to Jerome Brudos. The 23-year-old from McMinnville last was seen in Eugene on Nov. 25, 1968.

Jerry Brudos started out with a shoe fetish and ended up a serial killer. His predilection for stiletto heels went all the way back to his childhood days. He was only 5 when he found a pair of women’s shoes in a trash heap, took them home and tried them on. By the time he was in his teens, he was breaking into homes and stealing women’s shoes and underwear. He continued the pattern after high school, sometimes confronting the women and choking them unconscious. By 1968, now married and the father of two, he killed for the first time. His victim, a young woman who came to his door by mistake, was beaten and strangled. Before dumping her corpse in a river, he cut off her left foot, put it in one of the pumps from his collection and stuffed it in a freezer. He lured some of his later victims by advertising in newspapers for women to model shoes and hosiery. He killed three more women in Oregon before being captured, progressively mutilating the corpses. In his books and articles, former... See less

Late in the afternoon on April 21, 1969, Sharon Wood, 24, left her secretarial job in Portland to meet with her estranged husband, who wanted to discuss a divorce. She entered the basement level of a parking garage to look for her car when a tall, pudgy man approached her. She later told police (that Ann Rule accessed for the book The Lust Killer) that she had sensed someone behind her and had tried to return to an area where she could hear other people. But then someone tapped her shoulder and she turned around. The man was holding a pistol. See less
