Reading through the details of the Lava Lake murders really has me wondering about the connections people had back then. The fact that Allen Wilcoxen was the last person to see Roy Wilson and his companions before their tragic deaths is chilling. I can't help but think about how ordinary that visit must have seemed at the time—just a friendly check-in. His visit was probably a welcome distraction from the harsh winter trapping life.
It's especially eerie because Wilcoxen noted that they were in good spirits, likely not suspecting what would befall them only hours later. I feel for Allen; he must have been haunted by their deaths, replaying that last visit in his mind, wondering if he missed any signs. Hopefully, he was able to find some peace despite such a grim outcome.
I'm also curious about Wilcoxen’s interactions with the investigators. Was he questioned extensively? Did he notice anything out of the ordinary on his visit? Unfortunately, too many years have passed to answer all these questions definitively, but one can only hope we might someday have clearer answers for the families of these men.
Hey everyone, I've been diving into the eerie details of the Little Lava Lake case, and something really sticks with me. It’s about the bloodstained hammer found in the storage shed. It seems almost too deliberate, doesn't it? I mean, would an experienced criminal like Kimzey really leave such an obvious piece of evidence behind if he was indeed responsible? It's as if someone wanted to make sure blame went his way, or perhaps it was left in the chaos of the moment. The cabin and shed both showed signs of violent struggle and quick departure, which adds to the chaos theory.
My heart goes out to the families who never got closure, especially Dewey’s brother who was part of the search team—can't imagine how those initial discoveries must have felt. It's frustrating that despite evidence pointing towards Kimzey, justice was never served. I'd love to hear what others think about this—do you believe the hammer was a deliberate plant, or just part of the tragic aftermath?
Has anyone else been curious about the role Edward Logan played in this case? It seems odd that the cabin he owned ended up being the scene of such a gruesome crime. Was there ever any suggestion that he might have been involved in some way, or perhaps had unwittingly been connected to the perpetrator? I can't imagine what it felt like for him, knowing his property became tied to such a horrific event. It's just so tragic that Roy Wilson and his companions met such a violent end in a place they must have considered safe. I hope it brought any kind of solace to their families to know that the trappers were doing well and in good spirits before that terrible night. This case still haunts me because it feels like there are so many threads left hanging.
