Despite their efforts, they could only find his pickup truck.
#SOCK PHOTO POLICE STATION NIGHT DRIVER#
Robertson was found first, again with a tube sock tied around her neck, by a driver near a road frequented by loggers, so the police brought in bloodhounds in an attempt to find Riemer. She was only two years old, so she was not verbal enough to provide much information, but she did say that, “Mommy was in the trees.” Because of the winter weather, searching for the missing couple was difficult, and their bodies were not discovered until over two months later. The same evening that they left, Crystal was found alive standing outside of a Kmart about 30 miles away. Mike Riemer and his girlfriend, Diana Robertson, were on a camping trip near Nisqually River with their daughter, Crystal.
More than two months after these first murders, the second pair of victims were reported missing. Although this suggests strangulation, her cause of death was actually determined to be a shot to the abdomen. The rest of her body and belongings were found in the nearby area, and a tube sock was wrapped around her neck. Over a month later, Cooper’s skull was found and positively identified using dental records. Their pet dog was found shot to death as well, but Cooper’s body was still missing. Harkins’ body was found first, still in his sleeping bag, suggesting that he was killed by a shot to the head in his sleep. The couple had planned a weekend camping trip at Tule Lake, but they did not come back to work the following Monday so their families reported them missing. The first pair of victims, Steven Harkins and Ruth Cooper, were discovered on August 14, 1985.
In this short window of time, he was presumed to have ended the lives of four victims, but this number could be vastly different if there are victims who have not been found yet.
The Tube Sock Killer was active for just four months in the remote area of Mineral in Washington state. This week I’ll be telling you about an especially interesting case to make up for the long break we had, the Tube Sock Killings case.
