Description

October 21, 1973, was a Sunday. Typically, 32-year-old Virginia Erickson would attend church on Sundays, where she played the piano. But on that particular Sunday, Virginia and her husband, David, were going hunting instead. Virginia and David's nephew picked up their six children that morning from their home in Sweet Home, Oregon, and brought them to church. When the children returned, their mother was gone. David never reported his wife missing. Virginia had previously maintained consistent contact with her family in Washington, but they also stopped hearing from her. Disturbing information would later surface about what was happening inside the Erickson home, information that could be the motive behind Virginia Erickson's disappearance.

Adventures With Purpose does water sonar for just this purpose. They are based here in Bend, OR. Check them out on You Tube. It doesn't cost the family's.

This episode is one of the most difficult to listen to and one of the most heartbreaking nightmarish episodes. What these children (now adults) have gone through is unimaginable and my heart goes out to them. The father got off easy dying of cancer. He was a despicable, evil man. His sentence was too short for sexually abusing his daughters. He got away with torturing the family and killing Virginia. The fact her disappearance was never investigated is mind blowing.
