On Halloween 1966, Joseph Bates awoke early in the morning to find that his 18 year old daughter, Cheri Jo, had not slept in her bed the previous night. Cheri had been studying in the River City College library and it was completely out of character for her to stay out all night, so Joseph contacted the police. A short time later Cheri’s body was found face-down in an alleyway on the college campus. There was evidence of a struggle and Cheri had been stabbed multiple times. The local police had no unsolved murders on their books and expected to solve this terrible crime quickly and efficiently. Unfortunately, the case proved far from straightforward.
