On the evening of July 20, 1975, 31-year-old Shirley Wallace was killed while working at the Gentlemen’s Retreat, a massage parlor on River Road in Eugene, Oregon. A white male in his twenties entered armed with a shotgun, bound Wallace and a 24-year-old coworker, robbed them of about $30, then separated them. The coworker escaped to a neighboring tavern and heard a struggle; patrons who ran to help were fired upon and two were wounded.

Officers found Wallace stabbed to death. Witnesses described the suspect and a composite sketch was made. He fled in an older red pickup truck with white trim that may have had out-of-state plates. No arrest has been announced and the case remains unsolved.

Did anyone in the Eugene area in 1975 ever see a vehicle like that or know someone who matched the sketch?
