On the evening of May 19, 1983 Diane Downs pulled up to the McKenzie-Willamette Hospital in Springfield Oregon and calmly asked for help, claiming someone had just shot her and her children in an attempted carjacking.
Police were soon on the scene and the evidence in the car did not match Downs' story. There was no gunshot residue nor blood spatter that could corroborate her story. After a 9 month investigation she was finally arrested on February 28, 1984.
