It's hard to believe how badly Phoenix Oregon LE bungled the investigation. Just sad. Both Dennis and Ernie were really good people with marvelous stories of their days with the Renaissance Fair. They used to come into a place I worked just outside of Phoenix.

$2.2M lawsuit: Oregon cops bungled case of dead Mouseketeer

The surviving relatives of Dennis Day, one of the original cast members of “The Mickey Mouse Club” in the 1950s, filed a $2.2 million lawsuit in Jackson County Circuit Court on March 24…

"The state appealed the exclusion order the next month, and the case has made little progress since then. Burda had been released from jail pending trial, but wound up back behind bars after he was convicted of third-degree robbery in Jackson County and imprisoned at the Columbia River Correctional Institution on Feb. 9 of this year.

Plaintiffs ... previously filed suit against the police department in Oregon federal court one year ago, but the case was dismissed in January 2021 after Judge Mark D. Clarke determined the family’s claims didn’t fit federal law, but could be pursued in state court."

Mouseketeer homicide suspect found mentally fit for trial

A homicide trial is back on for the man charged in the death of a Phoenix resident who was known for his child acting role in the 1950s. Daniel James Burda, 37, was found mentally fit to stand trial o...

"The lawsuit, filed in March, accuses Phoenix police with negligence in the investigation by overlooking Day’s body inside his own home and missing key evidence.

An amended lawsuit filed May 15 added a new charge of “tortious interference with a corpse,” alleging that Phoenix police “damaged the deceased body of Mr. Day by stepping on him and creating post mortem fractures.” They said the oversight caused Day’s body “to decompose to an unidentifiable state.”

The lawsuit seeks damages of $1.7 million."

Even though that article is from Jan. 2021 - at least I have some notes to update on her since all I had was up to 2019. Wonder why they did not mention her $10K warrant out of Oregon...
Thanks!

Good question. I was surprised when I found it. I wonder if she's still in custody?
