Summary

Episode 108 Eric Goldstrand and Lliana Adank Part 1 of 2

 

When 16 year old high schoolers Eric Goldstrand and Lliana Adank were shot to death in at the popular Fall Creek recreation area in June 1977, residents of the teens’ hometown of Eugene, Oregon were shocked and devastated.  There were hundreds of witnesses, tips, and leads… a surplus of information that led investigators nowhere.  Suspect after suspect failed to pan out, and the case went cold for years, then decades.  Extensive investigation into similar campground murders of couples also led nowhere.  Finally, a cold case detective determined to solve the murders was able to employ forensic genealogy to identify a potential suspect, who was alive and living in another state. Investigators closed in on him, but he knew they were coming.

On Thursday night, July 9th, Ted Outcult and his wife Donna were very worried.

They couldn't find Ted's 16-year-old steps on Eric Goldstrand. Eric and his girlfriend, Liana
