Does anyone have any update on the case of the two female Swedish hitchhikers who were found murdered around Santa Barbara, CA in 1983? I saw the UM segment today and at the end, Robert Stack said that they identified the anonymous caller to the Swedish consulate in L.A. who gave them the name of the person who is alleged to have killed the two young women. The killer's name was said to be "Loren" and he was a fellow from Canada who drove a white van with a green canoe on top. He was said to have "hated women". According to Stack, the authorities had located this "Loren" fellow too and had found some evidence linking him to the murders and said that further updates would be provided when they knew more. I suspect that no further updates were ever provided on UM but does anyone on here know whatever became of this case?
