On December 30, 1992, 23-year-old Dantee Elise Oshita Aka, a White/Caucasian male also known as Chantee Alyce Woodman, was abducted after leaving a nightclub in downtown Hillsboro, Oregon. Two men, identified as Cesar Barone and Leonard Benjamin Darcell II, persuaded Dantee to get into Barone’s car. He was held against his will, sexually assaulted, brutally assaulted by Barone, and then shot in the head. His body was later found abandoned along the Sunset Highway.

Investigators tracked Darcell to Seattle on an unrelated parole violation; his later cooperation provided a detailed account of that night and was important to the case against Barone. Cesar Barone was arrested and tried for multiple violent crimes in the Portland area; he was convicted in connection with Dantee’s murder and others and received a death sentence. Darcell also faced legal consequences for his role.

Did anyone who knew Dantee or saw him in the Hillsboro or Portland area in late December 1992 come forward with information at the time?
