A man serving a life sentence in Washington State for a cold case murder in Seattle is now a “person of interest” in the murder of Susan McLaughlin near Sacramento, California in 1973.
McLaughlin was a University of California Berkeley student who had taken a bus from campus to her parents’ home in El Dorado County, California.
The new leads about the man who might have been responsible for her death – Bryan Lee Gelenaw -- were filed as part of a search warrant in King County Superior Court this week.
Gelenaw is known in the Pacific Northwest as the "Bus Stop Rapist." He kidnapped multiple young women at bus stops throughout Snohomish County -- at knife point --- then brutally raped them
