Girl Scout Murders 1977

[Foreverewalkalone]

This horrific crime happened on June 13, 1977 at Camp Scott in Mayes County, Oklahoma. It was the first night of Girl Scout camp when 3 young girls were killed and sexually molested. The girls were ages 8, 9 and 10 and were murdered sometime between 2-4 a.m. They were murdered in their tent and carried about 150 yards from it. At about 6 a.m., a camp counselor was walking along a trail to the shower when she discovered their bodies on the side of the trail. A man was tried and acquitted for the murders. Thirty years later, new DNA tests were found to be inconclusive, since the evidence was too old.
