To make it more interesting as a potential Keyes case, within about twenty hours of Sean disappearing, a nearby convenience store was robbed at gunpoint by someone who matched Keyes's description.
Josh HallmarkHOST
Based on an interview with Keyes's former fiancée, who we call Annie, Keyes had spent Thanksgiving with her and her family in Colville and then headed back to Fort Lewis.
Josh HallmarkHOST
Based on weather conditions that weekend, the most probable route he would have taken back to the base would have been directly through Morton.
Josh HallmarkHOST
You can hear more about that in my initial episode, but the too long; didn't read is there was a snowstorm that made driving over Snoqualmie Pass, the main thoroughfare from Fort Lewis to Colville, almost impossible.
Josh HallmarkHOST
After spending several months looking into Sean's case, we ran out of leads and avenues to explore.

He had a, I mean, I think there's 150 or 200 units there at that hotel and And that hotel was built in that on the late buck season because in Washington State, you used to be able to if you didn't get your buck in the normal season, you could go over there no matter where you were.

On August fifth of twenty-twenty-four, Hala sent the following to the Stevens County, where both Hunters and Colville are, undersheriff.
Josh HallmarkHOST
"Dear Undersheriff Erdman, Last week I gave a presentation to the Washington State Patrol's Missing and Unidentified Persons Unit, as well as the King County Medical Examiner's Office.
Josh HallmarkHOST
The presentation concerned the late serial killer Israel Keyes, who is believed to have killed four individuals in Washington State sometime between two thousand and one and two thousand and seven.
Josh HallmarkHOST
Keyes committed suicide in two thousand and twelve and never fully identified these victims, but told us that he did not think that their bodies had ever been recovered by law enforcement.
Josh HallmarkHOST
Two of his four Washington State victims are believed to be a couple, male and female, who were buried on the east side of the state.
Josh HallmarkHOST
We know that Keyes had ties to Colville and Hunters, Washington, having grown up there during his teen years, and he made at least one visit to the area in two thousand and five.
Josh HallmarkHOST
After the presentation, the King County Medical Examiner told us about a set of unidentified leg bones that were found east of Hunters, Washington, in November of twenty-sixteen.

Truck driver scare, 1968.
Lynn SmythHOST
A Colville, Washington Indian male, a 50-year-old big rig truck driver, reported an incident that occurred in 1968, in the early morning while he was taking a load of water, filling a large tank on his truck from a stream.
Lynn SmythHOST
A pump was set up in the stream, and while the tank was filling, he relaxed behind the steering wheel in the cab of the truck.
Lynn SmythHOST
There was suddenly a knock on the passenger side window, and a huge Sasquatch face was pressed against the glass.

Josh HallmarkHOST
Let's begin with the Christian Identity movement as a whole and how and when the Keyes family became involved.
Josh HallmarkHOST
You may recall all the way back in season one, episode five, I briefly examined some of the tenets of the Christian Identity and the two Colville churches that the Keyes family were members of during their time there: The Ark and the Christian Israel Covenant Church.
Josh HallmarkHOST
In this episode, we'll be taking a look at the histories of these churches and their contemporaries and how multiple factions of the same teachings coalesced in Stevens County, Washington, and shaped how the Keyes family came to be who they were and where they were.
Josh HallmarkHOST
According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, the Christian Identity principles started to become a more widespread movement around the early nineteen fifties when Ku Klux Klan organizer Wesley Smith founded the Church of Jesus Christ-Christian in Lancaster, California.
Josh HallmarkHOST
Some of Bulla's more controversial beliefs included plural marriage That Adam of Adam and Eve was actually a reincarnated deity with multiple wives, that Black people could never comprehend nor preach the spiritual truths of Joseph Smith and Brigham Young, and that he himself was a prophet of God.
Josh HallmarkHOST
Like Peters, Bulla was also devoutly homophobic.
Josh HallmarkHOST
Bulla's sister, Anne, would marry a man named Barry Bird around this time, and together they founded the Marble Fellowship Community Church in the ghost town of Marble, Washington, the town immediately north of Colville.
Josh HallmarkHOST
The Marble scripture was largely inspired by and interpreted from that of Pete Peters and Christian Identity.
