Mary Cooper and Susanna Stodden were murdered two years ago while on a summer day hike. For two years the chilling case has remained unsolved, with no arrests ever made--leaving the victims' family and all of us local hikers at a loss for closure. In hopes of solving the cold case, Seattle-based Investigative Films is working on a documentary film about the murders. The documentary appears to have the blessing and cooperation of Cooper's and Stodden's family. On Monday, Dave Stodden hiked to the site of his wife and daughter's murder as part of the filming.

Seattle police have filed second-degree murder charges against 28-year-old Brian Keith Brown in the beating death of James Paroline. Brown delivered a single punch that killed Paroline, who was tending a traffic circle garden last Wednesday in Rainier Beach. Police are searching for the suspect who is still at large and a $500,000 warrant has been issued. Brown has a history of violence and has been previously convicted for third-degree assault, after nearly choking an ex-girlfriend to death.
