Description

Hitchhiking was a rite of passage for teens in the 70s in the beautiful Pacific Northwest – until a charming predator turned their freedom into fear. Some managed to escape him, but police believe this good-looking stranger was responsible for the kidnapping, torture and murders of many more young women. The grieving families of his victims refuse to let their daughters and sisters be forgotten, and those who survived their run-ins with this killer lived to tell their own tales. Together, their stories paint a chilling portrait of a killer who hid in plain sight. This is the chronicle of lost girls, found strength, and the fight to shine new light on all-but-forgotten cases. Stolen Voices of Dole Valley is the story of a serial killer you’ve never heard of -- and the victims and survivors you’ll never forget.

Breaking the Silence

A good-looking stranger was on the prowl in the early 70s. His targets were young women, most of them in their teens. While he was suspected in several missing persons and murder cases, his crimes went underreported and underprosecuted. Miraculously, some women escaped and lived to describe the violence he put them through. These survivors now speak on behalf of all the lost sisters and daughters who were silenced by a serial killer with a knack for escaping justice. Stolen Voices of Dole Valley, from Pie in the Sky Media, KSL Podcasts, and Lemonada Media -- out Aug. 19.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Despite being reported missing to the Clark County Sheriff’s Office that night, December 7, 1971, law enforcement didn’t go looking for her.

Episode 3 - A 15-year-old girl is approached by a good looking stranger who offers her a ride. Norma Jean Countryman would get in the van, but instead of taking her home, the stranger drove her to the nearby woods in a Clark County park. He tied her between two trees, blindfolded her, punched her in the face, and left. Norma chewed through her bonds to escape before he came back. But when she recounted her harrowing night of survival and gave a detailed description of her abductor and his blue van, she was not believed.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Episode 4 - Because investigators didn’t believe Norma, the charismatic stranger is free to kidnap another young woman. He took “Susan” to another Clark County park, sexually assaulted her, tortured her and left her for dead in a shallow grave. She crawled to a roadside and flagged down a car for help. Unlike with Norma, investigators believed Susan. The good-looking stranger is arrested. About a week later, the bodies of two unidentified women are found in Dole Valley just a few feet from each other. Their remains are near where the student ID and purse of Jamie Grissom were found.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
