    I think that is one of the unsolved ones that is still on the books for Eddy County Sheriff's Dept. Is this the one where they found the truck driver with two women victims as well? I don't know much about the Nichols guy...but I can ask Gaynell if you like. She has been out of touch this...

    I don't have anything like x-rays. All I have is what I purchased from the ECSO. After I got home I realized they really didn't give me the good stuff. Of course, I wanted what Estrada had done and I feel like he did the best he could do considering the retraints he had on him there at the...

    Welcome to the thread. I personally wrote a letter to the Attorney General's Office several years ago...she had a secretary write a letter back to me explaining this case was out of her jurisdiction...that the office she represented could not get involved. That is great that Target can...

    Mattie was shot in the right temple. And Patty was shot in the left temple. I don't know if they ever stated what they thought about which the killer was right or left handed. I've always wondered that myself.

    I have always wondered how the killers retrieved the slugs from the murder scene. But they would also have to know how to clean up the scene so well. How could they find the slugs in the dark? Also...what about the footprints of the girls...wouldn't there be footprints from them out there if...

    I don't know why he said it. But I have to say that he said that when he thought the Rabe, McCaskey, Howard guys were a good lead. The Lee Cathey guys...maybe because Cathey said that Robert Rabe told him that when he was in town he and the two other guys would cruise and pick girls up a nd go...

    Estrada told me he felt the girls were drunk..but I just don't believe it. And it didn't say that in the autopsy report. That report say that Mattie had eatten what appeared to be watermelon, apple pie, and she had drank a cherry coke. Patty's autopsy doesnt' say anything about what was in her...

    Mattie didn't call home. Patty did. She called her mother and supposedly her mother told her to walk home....that they weren't going to mess up her plans..which were to go to another party. Connie told me this when I talked to her. But Mattie did not call home...because if she had my mother...

    I do remember the officers that came to the house told my parents that Matties skull had been crushed in...that she would have died from the blows alone...and they have always said it was most likely a 38 caliber gun that was used.

    I remember McGrew as being very sure of himself. Maybe struck on himself...easy going...and he seemed to enjoy children. He would always ask us how our school day went...stuff like that. I don't recall him touching us...but he did pick Kelly (8 months old) up and play with him some. I...
