The Case of Diane Downs

This week, Drewby and Yergy head back in time to Springfield, Oregon, on the evening of May 19th, 1983. A 27-year-old mother of three is driving down some back roads with her three children. Hungry Like the Wolf by Duran Duran is playing on the radio, when suddenly, a bushy-haired man flags the family down for help. Their carefree evening changes in an instant when the man pulls a gun and attempts to carjack the young family, and all three children are murdered in the process. But, who was this man? And did this scenario even actually happen 41 years ago?
