Murder on the Appalachian Trail - Part 1

Sept 13th, 1990 - Biff and Cindi Bowen were at the halfway point of their 2,144 mile hike down the Appalachian Trail, when the couple stopped for supplies in Duncannon, Pennsylvania, before their trek up nearby Cove Mountain. The two planned to spend the night in a three-sided log shelter along the trail. As the couple hiked down an incline behind the shelter, Biff sensed that “Something was wrong,”. He was so overcome with an uneasy sense of dread that he positioned his hiking pole as a weapon before walking around the cabins open side. On the open side of the cabin, the couple found supplies frantically scattered around the murdered bodies of two hikers. The Bowens walked onto the scene of a grisly double murder. The victims, two experienced hikers—Molly LaRue, 25, of Shaker Heights, Ohio, and her boyfriend, Geoffrey Hood, 26, of Signal Mountain, Tennessee. Hood had been shot multiple times with a .22 caliber revolver. LaRue had been tied up, tortured, raped and stabbed eight times in the neck and upper back. Join us this week as we investigate the case of Hood and LaRue. Join us in Episode 17 for part 2 of "Murder on the Appalachian Trail", where we wrap up the case of Hood & LaRue.
