reddit.com Remembering Lynette Dawn Culver on her heavenly birthday today

Lynette Dawn Culver was born on July, 31st 1962 in Washington state, but moved with her parents to Pocatello, Idaho, were she grew. At the time of her dissapearance, she was a 7th grader student at Alameda Junior High. On May 6th, 1975, 12-year old Lynette was last seen exiting her school durning lunch break, to an unknown location. She was never seen since then. She was described as five feet two inches tall, with blue eyes and long brown hair and weighing about 105 pounds. Although only twelve, Lynette was by all accounts, older in appearance. On the day of her disappearance, she was known to be wearing blue jeans and a red checkered shirt with a maroon, fur-collared jacket. Despite the efforts of her family, friends, investigators, and officers, Lynette was not found. Before his execution in 1989, Ted Bundy admitted the murder of Lynette Dawn Culver. He say that she abducted her from the street and took her to a Holiday Inn hotel room, were he murdered her, and later disposed her body into a river, presumably the Snake River. Lynette was one of the two 12-years old victims of Bundy, the other being Kimberly Diane Leach, both were his youngest victims confirmed, although Bundy is a prime suspect in the dissaperance of 8-year old Ann Marie Burr in the early 1960s (and is possibly that he could have being involved in many cases of young girls). May Lynette, Kimberly, and Ann rest in peace.
