Correction: Donna Lee Duhamel was found in Malibu, California, not Florida. He was already in California in 1977 or 1978. I'm pretty sure he was already trolling the L.A. area and approached me in Granada Hills then.
Tracey Campbell and Shari Miller were killed/found in the Lancaster/Antelope Valley/Palmdale area.

I am interested in the 14 year old who was found strangled in a desolate area in 1979. I'm not familiar with this serial murderer. Could you give me info on where I can familiarize myself? Thanks so much!

LinasK or amberdawn723, can either of you provide detailed dates for Bradford for 1972? The above timeline states that he was living in Dorr, MI, at some point in 1972.

A 15-year-old named Kathy Sue Wilcox disappeared from Otsego, MI, on July 17, 1972, so I am specifically interested in Bradford's whereabouts on that date. I am trying to determine whether he can be eliminated as a suspect. Otsego is just 25 minutes from Dorr. The area is very rural, so one wouldn't expect many killers to be living in the vicinity.

Not offhand, but it's interesting that there is renewed interest in him. I'd seen a Dateline show on him I think, and now just the other night there was a 48 Hours program on him. I think they said he started killing in '75. I believe I had contact with him in California in '77 or '78, not far from Palmdale.

I don't think the interest in him should stop until all of the women in his photos are identified, and so far as I know that hasn't happened yet.
With respect to his murders starting in '75, maybe that's when he started his photography ruse. It wouldn't surprise me to learn that he had earlier vicitms that predate his developing that MO.

Does anyone have a link to the women who have already been identified in the pictures?

A possible for #12 http://www.missingkids.org/poster/NCMU/1228213/1 ??

 

[Alnilam]

Does anyone know where Bradford lived/was before 1972? Maybe where he was born or grew up? A lot of the women have hair styles from the 60's.

 

[Holly Gothlightly]

Theresa Baxter for #25? From the Charley Project.

 

[Holly Gothlightly]

Lynn Marjorie Bandringa for #21?

#14, Kimberly Ann Kahler seems like it could match. She disappeared on New Year's day which could explain the hat.

[WildHuncher]

Very close, but #14 has a very cleft chin. Not sure if it's a rule-out or not.

I wonder if you know how many of the identified women where found alive. Were there any UID's - homicide victims among them?
