Lake Crescent

Yeah, that we're actually searching for a victim.

Keys had confessed that he submerged one of his victims in Lake Crescent up in Washington state.

Okay.

And so we worked with Gene and Sandy Ralston who do side sonar scanning.

So use me.

Right.

How did you make that connection with the FBI and get that door opened? It was actually back when I was searching Lake Crescent.

He found out about it through the parks department and reached out and said, hey, I hear you're out here doing the search.

I've done videos about Lake Michigan and the airplane that disappeared over the water i've done videos about lakes in texas kind of similar to the great salt lake i do not shy away from kind of these environmental issues but in texas they have these old wells that were drilled for oil but now they tap into the groundwater and they seep to the surface creating these lakes but they're like toxic lakes they're lakes with like toxic gases and different chemicals that are kind of coming to the surface along with this this bit of oil as well That was like such a fascinating topic for me.

I think this year I'm actually going to do Lake Crescent, which is in Washington, which I hadn't done.

I haven't done yet.

I've done a lot.

I did Spirit Lake, which is the one that was right next to Mount St. Helens and has a log mat on it.

And I've done Lake Chelan.

But Lake Crescent has some spooky history as well.

It's like a cold and deep lake.

Margaret's vehicle, a black BMW X5 SUV, was located in a pullout on East Beach Road.

Park rangers were notified the vehicle was located and a hasty search began at Lake Crescent.

On April 25, 2020, at 6.45 p.m., Park Rangers found her submerged red kayak on a rocky shoreline along US Highway 101, about a mile east of Barnes Point in the Olympic National Park in Washington.

On April 26, 2020, multiple searches were conducted via boat by Park Rangers with the assistance of the Clallam County Sheriff's Office and Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife.

Park Rangers were also assisted by a search and rescue dive team and search dogs from Kitsap County, as well as the German Shepherd Search Dogs of Washington State.

Park Rangers continue to search at Lake Crescent today and to organize additional dive team resources.

Park Rangers are also conducting this investigation in coordination with the Clallam County Sheriff's Office, Port Angeles Police Department, and the Investigative Services Branch of the National Park Service.

Margaret is described as a 60-year-old white female with brown and gray hair.

If there is an actual pinpoint origin of the Lady in White, I would love to know.

But I know when I investigated Lake Crescent and the ghost of Hallie Illingworth, who's a real person, she has manifested as both the woman in white as, um, the lady of the lake.

And also as a, as this on the side of the highway goes, who's pointing in a direction.

Yeah.

Storm King Ranger Station.

Lake Crescent.

Crescent Lake, yep.

Lake Crescent.

And then-

Lake...

Tonight's stories involve late night encounters, remote forests, and witnesses who saw far more than they expected.

Lake Crescent, Washington, 2015 I grew up in Washington, and every summer I tried to spend as much time outdoors as I could.

I hiked the trails, went fishing in the rivers, camped in the woods, and swam in the mountain lakes that stayed cold even when the summer heat was at its peak.

In August of 2015, I drove out with my cousin to spend a full day at Lake Crescent.

That lake sits deep in the Olympic National Park, surrounded by steep mountains where tall trees press right up against the shoreline.

Lake Crescent is a clear and deep lake with water that shines a blue so bright in the sunlight that it almost doesn't look real.

On that August afternoon, the air was still and heavy with heat.

The sun stood high with almost no clouds in the sky.

Unclear whether the bodies were dismembered or whole when they were sunk in the lake, which, yes, totally contradicts the statement two points above this.

One victim was disposed of in Lake Crescent, located near Port Angeles, Washington.

Keyes' Bayliner boat's Mercury engine broke down on June 24th 2006 while boating with friends on Lake Ozette.

A witness did not believe that Keyes ever fixed the motor after this.

Unfortunately, we don't have enough information to conduct any kind of search.

We do suspect that the couple were killed and buried in Eastern Washington, while his other two victims were likely killed in Western Washington.

The victims in Western Washington had their bodies sunk in lakes, one in Lake Crescent, west of Port Angeles.

FYI, the crime series Wild Crimes, which plays on Hulu, is devoting their fourth season to the Keyes investigation.
