Who killed Becky Rae Martin?

 

Becky was a bubbly, free-spirited 22 yr old mother of three,pregnant with her fourth. She was out on a date on the night of Oct 17, 1975. Unfortunately her date was lavishing his attention on other women, instead of her, so she decided to leave. She was last seen outside a bar/lounge in Springfield OR that night. The next day, her body was found by a mother and her kids in a grassy field near Junction City. She has been stabbed multiple times, throat cut, and her body posed.

 

Who killed Becky? Was it her date that she abruptly left? Was it someone she lived with? Could it have been a family member that was jealous of the attention she was getting? Could this person have killed again?

 

She died over 50 years ago – is there still a chance that this case can be solved?

 

We will get into all of this, and more, on this episode of our podcast.
