Lori Scott King was 19 when she vanished from Fairbanks, Alaska on May 16, 1981. Her remains were recovered on September 2, 1981, near Eielson Air Force Base, a recovery that tied her death to a pattern of killings in the Fairbanks area between 1979 and 1981.

Investigators found a consistent signature among several victims: victims typically were strangled and then shot, and bodies were recovered within a tight radius around Eielson, which led detectives to consider a suspect with military connections. A multi-agency task force focused on personnel tied to Eielson and identified Air Force technical sergeant Thomas Richard Bunday as a prime suspect; he was questioned in Texas in March 1983, confessed to five Fairbanks-area killings, and evidence was recovered from his home and car. A procedural error left no arrest warrant at the end of that interrogation and he was released; days later he died in a motorcycle collision that was ruled a suicide.

Does anyone have information about Lori’s activities in Fairbanks in May 1981 or the locations near Eielson where she was found?
