KCSO Full Interstate Victim List

From 1974 to 1975 the King County Sheriff's Office (KCSO) worked with agencies in California (as well as other western states) to investigate whether each state's recent unsolved female homicides (UFHs) were related. Many, many files and records were generated during this collaboration, many of which list different combinations of possibly related UFHs. 

The list of likely victims was eventually narrowed down to 22: fourteen in CA — including seven SRHM victims — and eight in OR and WA (primarily KCSO cases). This investigation culminated in the CA DOJ publishing a report on the 22 victims in February 1975; that report is available here.

I am interested in these files because many, if not all, of the CA victims are relevant to this blog. Furthermore, this is, as of September 2025, one of the — if not the — only official set of records I've been able to get my hands on for many of these cases, as California's Public Records Act (PRA) deems investigative files as exempt from disclosure, so I have been unable to obtain any when submitting PRA requests to the actual respective agencies.

By the second half of 1975 it was determined that the cases under KCSO jurisdiction (as well as many others) were committed by serial killer Ted Bundy, though none of the CA cases have been attributed to him. 

Despite this, KCSO — unlike many CA agencies, including CA DOJ — not only retained all their files generated during this interstate investigation, but have also made them available among its other Bundy files in a Dropbox through the King County Archives. Due to the large volume of records in a semi-disorganized fashion, I have gone through and separated the relevant ones into related chunks, including the one below. Many of these files that I am sharing specifically originated from Box 25, Folder 11, "924-25-11 California Criminal Intelligence" of the King County Archives' Dropbox.

Furthermore, many of these files were more-or-less redacted by KCSO in accordance with laws regarding what can or cannot be disclosed when responding to a public records request prior to being shared. I have gone through and either typed — in Helvetica/Arial/etc font — or commented — it varies — what I have determined to be the contents of the redacted information, primarily victim names that I deduced based on date, location, age, etc. All text in Helvetica/Arial/etc font is my work, and not part of the original case files. Upon opening a post (such as this one), please then open the pdf itself in another tab in order to see my comments, which contain important information regarding cases that have since been solved, the contents of redacted details, missing persons who have since been found, corrections to typos/factual errors, etc.

A full list of all files pertaining to the above that I have made available on this site can be found here, as well as on the sidebar of this blog under the title "List of ALL 1974-1975 KCSO UFH Files." 

The record below specifically consists of pages 1-2 [rotated], 3-4, and 6-9 from Box 25, Folder 11, "924-25-11 California Criminal Intelligence" of the King County Archives' Dropbox.

The first two pages of the pdf are scans of the covers of the original physical KCSO manila folder, the contents of which were scanned to become the file folder "924-25-11 California Criminal Intelligence." The pdf pages that follow consist of the full, most comprehensive list of victims across states from the King County Archive/KCSO files. 

WARNING: Please be aware that these investigative records contain details of violence — primarily of a sexual nature — against women and girls aged anywhere between 11 and 27 years old, which is described using blunt police terminology, as well as some dated terms (especially regarding race and female sexuality) that were more-or-less typical of the time period. Some individuals may find these details and descriptions graphic or disturbing. Reader discretion is advised.
