Glenn Norman Barker was 14 when he was abducted and murdered on March 21, 1980. Born May 2, 1965, in Los Angeles County, he was hitchhiking when he was picked up by William Bonin. His body was found in the Cleveland National Forest near the Ortega Highway alongside Russell Rugh on March 23, 1980.

Bonin later confessed to multiple killings and was convicted in a series of murders of boys and young men between 1968 and 1980; this case is described as one he carried out unassisted. Glenn’s death is one of many in that series and remains a stark example of the violence inflicted on his victims.

Did anyone who knew Glenn or frequented the Ortega Highway area in March 1980 ever notice him or remember seeing him that week?
