''PORTLAND, Ore. — Gresham's oldest unsolved homicide case came to a close with the life sentencing of Robert Plympton on Thursday. The 61-year-old was sentenced to a minimum 40 years in prison for the 1980 murder of a 19-year-old near Mt. Hood Community College.
In March, Multnomah County Circuit Judge Amy Baggio found Plympton guilty of first-degree murder of Barbara Tucker, who was sexually assaulted and beaten to death the night of Jan. 15, 1980.''
