Episode 100 - Diane Downs

Wicked Within

On May 19th, 1983, employees at McKenzie-Willamette Medical Center in Springfield, Oregon were shocked and horrified when the quiet night was interrupted by a bloody woman falling out of her car and repeatedly saying, “Please help my children, please help my children.”
The woman was Diane Downs, and she told the hospital employees that she and her three children had been shot by a bushy-haired man on their drive home.
