On Dec. 9, 2009, Kevin Francke posted in a thread at this website regarding the murder of federal public defender Nancy Bergeson. Comments had been made relating to the murder of his brother Michael, the Oregon Corrections director murdered on Jan. 17, 1989. Kevin's post is as follows...
Jan. 19 - State police receive more than 50 telephone calls with information about the case. Fifteen to 20 investigators are assigned to the case, most of them state police.
Penn says the two primary motives being investigated are robbery and a possible plot by someone involved in the...
I seriously doubt $10,000 will entice anyone to come forward with info. Standard operating procedure though for cases like this with no leads. Is it just me or does this murder seem like a professional job?
The $10,000 reward reminds me of the reward of the same figure for info on the Michael...
About 12:40 am, security guard Stephen Rubino discovers Franckes body on a porch of the Dome Building.
Francke apparently had tried to gain access to the building by punching out a pane of glass in the porch door. His keys and glasses were several feet away from his feet.
At about 10am...

Tim Natividad shows up at Melody Garcias house high on methamphetamines. According to Melody Garcia, he was babbling about shooting it out with some Mexicans he said his people would get even with Michael Francke.
Was it really the 16th that Natividad showed up at Melody Garcia's house or...
Natividad talks to Konrad Garcia by Telephone, according to Garcia. Natividad asks him if he would like to get even with corrections administrators for what Garcia perceived as mistreatment.
Natividad says Garcia can get paid if he wasn’t particular about where the money came from or...
David's murder? You mean Tim Natividad, as "David" was his middle name? There was quite a bit going on with Natividad, most of which wouldn't be learned for another six months.
From Journal of a Murder...
Late December 1988 - Timothy David “Rooster” Natividad tells Melody...
Sleeler69,
I responded to your post in my blog the other day with the URL to Jodie's MySpace page. She was online earlier today as she sent me a message. You can message her there.
Yeah, I havta agree...it is a nationwide problem. I'm a bit prejudiced concerning Oregon judicial circles. I believe a few judges in Oregon are pedophiles themselves.
My apologies...my previous two January journal posts should've reflected the year 1989 rather than 1988. Apparently you lose the ability to edit your posts after a period of time.
Jan. 14-15, 1989 - Francke shoots his shotgun from the back porch of his rural Scotts Mills home. After his...
Yes, Frank said that. A great example of how his own mouth helped to convict him. I've asked Frank about that statement and he said what he meant to say was that only God knows who really killed Francke and that only God and Frank know that he didn't kill Francke.
Frank was uneducated back...
This guy pleads guilty to sodomizing a 14 year old boy after a crime lab found DNA inside the boy's underwear. Detectives said the guy touched the boy inappropriately and forced the teenager to perform oral sex on him.
"Your actions are inexcusable," the judge told Orourke on Wednesday. "At...
Jan. 13, 1988 - Francke reportedly tells his sister-in-law, Katie Francke, that he had “stepped on some toes” and uncovered criminal activities within his department.
She says drug trafficking was one of the issues he discussed.
Michael Francke tells her that he plans to go to...
Kevin has been paraded by the media over the years as being the chief proponent in proclaiming Frank's innocence and that his brother's murder was an assassination orchestrated by corrupt corrections officials in order to silence him before he blew the whistle on their wrongdoings.
I wasn't...
THE fMRI FIASCO
Once upon a time Frank Gable wrote to tell me he was waiting to hear back from Kevin Francke on the cost of having himself and other witnesses tested using a new lie detector technology...the fMRI (functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging).
Knowing how Kevin is prone to put...
