I couldn't find anything on this case at all. As far as I know, she is not on the Charley Project-all the info I could find comes from this article from the Bend Bulletin:
1 Judy Reeder: Reeder was last seen the evening of Feb. 1, 1962 the night before children playing in Drake Park found the body of the 17-year-old Bend High School homecoming princess under the footbridge in
4 inches of water.
Reeder had driven her 55 Ford sedan downtown and parked along Riverside Boulevard at about 10 p.m. She was never seen alive again.
An autopsy showed she had been struck in the head 13 times, possibly with a two-by-four , but the murder weapon was never recovered.
Evidence at the scene showed that Reeder was dragged to an area near the rock retaining wall of the pond. Investigators never determined how she ended up in the water.
Plaster casts of tennis and hard-soled shoes were taken from the mud near her body.
Those who knew her best said Reeder had been depressed in the months leading up to her death and that her grades had been on the decline.
Reeder stood 5 feet 3 inches and had long brown hair and blue eyes. Police have interviewed more than 500 witnesses in the case, including a half-dozen former boyfriends, but have no solid leads.
