Mysteries Defeat Washington Police Mysteries Defeat Washington
Washington police confront a string of baffling murders in which three women were killed over two years without resolution. Mary Baker, a navy department clerk, vanished in broad daylight and was found shot in a culvert near Arlington National Cemetery. Beulah Limerick, a theater usher, died from a bullet wound after a night out, with 15 to 20 suspects arrested. Virginia McPherson, a nurse, was later linked in public belief to the case, found slain in September 1929 with a pajama cord around her neck.
