Oklahoma Girl Scout Murders #98

Weeknight Mysteries - A podcast by Weeknight Mysteries

Who killed three young girl scouts at a summer camp in June of 1977?  This week on Solvable Mysteries we investigate the ghastly assault and murders of Girl Scouts Lori Lee Farmer, age 8, Doris Denise Milner, age 10, and Michele Heather Guse, age 9 at Camp Scott in Mayes County, Oklahoma. The murders were eventually tied to escaped convict Gene Leroy Hart, who had escaped from prison while serving a 308 year sentence for several heinous crimes that resembled the new crimes he was suspected of.  Unfortunately, his Cherokee community, and the subsequent jury, supported him and considered him some kind of "folk hero," and he was found not guilty.  When he died two months after the trial, he took his secrets to the grave with him. On the show today, Juras and Glenn review the details and complicated social, forensic and investigative issues of this controversial and famous case, and hopefully help bring a fresh outlook to our viewers and listeners.Please Subscribe to our YouTube channel to make sure you don't miss new episodes of the Solvable Mysteries Podcast, we upload on a weekly basis.Contact us at: [email protected] - https://www.instagram.com/weeknightmysteriesTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@weeknightmysteries
