Fishface | 18838 comments I stumbled across an online article on a guy named Bill Benefiel who kidnapped and sexually assaulted a couple of girls; one of them died (by having her face superglued shut so she couldn't breathe) but the other was rescued by police. I KNOW I have read about him somewhere besides this article -- his face is so familiar. Booky linky anyone?

This is the article: http://www.clarkprosecutor.org/html/d...

Fishface | 18838 comments The table of contents of that book indicates all the cases are at least 50 years older than Benefiel. But there's a chapter in there on Madge Oberholtzer!!!
