Melody Ann Murfin, born December 16, 1954, in Spokane Valley, Washington, was reported missing on June 4, 1998. She was 43 at the time of her death. Her body was found in 2000 buried in the yard of Robert Lee Yates Jr., a U.S. Army veteran who murdered multiple women in Spokane and targeted sex workers.

Murfin died of two gunshots to the head. Investigators had searched Yates’ property previously but missed her burial. Yates later said he buried her in his yard so he could see her every day. He was arrested in April 2000; his arrest prompted investigations that included his providing locations of victims’ remains as part of legal proceedings.

Does anyone have information about Melody’s last known movements or the people she was with in June 1998?
