“EVERYONE DESERVES JUSTICE”
On the anniversary of the Bonnie Craig murder, September 28,
1994, we would like to celebrate our family’s bittersweet victory and call
attention to the other families who are still awaiting justice.
No one
should get away with murder, rape, nor any other heinous crime. Now that
Bonnie’s killer has been convicted the money collected shortly after Bonnie’s
murder is offered as a reward to help find answers in other unsolved Alaskan
murders.
The Homicide
Reward Fund, a 501c3, formerly the Family and Friends of Bonnie Craig Reward
Fund, is offering up to $20,000 for information leading to the arrest and
conviction of the person/s responsible in the murders of four other Alaskan
teenage girls.
Shelley Connolly, 16, of Anchorage, was raped and murdered January 7th,
1978. Her body was found by the railroad tracks just past McHugh
Creek. DNA evidence is available. She was last seen the night before
talking with four men at Chilkoot Charlie’s.
Eileen Wafer, 14, of Haines, was home babysitting her younger brothers
June 10, 1982. When her mother returned the boys were in bed, but Eileen
was gone. Her body was found four days later under bushes on a beach in
Portage Cove.
Jessica Baggen, 17, of Sitka, was found raped and murdered May 6th,
1996 in Sitka. She left her sister’s after celebrating her 17th
birthday on the 4th, but never made it home. Her body was
found in a wooded area off a bike trail.
Ann Saephan, 15, of Anchorage was a passenger in a car sitting in the
parking lot at the Space Station on Spenard Road, November 8th,
2003, when a suspect fired several rounds into the rear of the car killing
Ann. The suspect fled on foot and to this day has not been
identified.
No one should get away
with murder! We are asking the public to never forget these
young victims or their families, and for those with any information to
come forward. The Homicide Reward Fund will pay up to $20,000 to get
these killers behind bars. They are a risk to us all. The families
and friends of these teenage girls need answers and deserve justice.
Contact the Alaska State Troopers Cold Case Investigations at 907 269-5611 or
the Anchorage Police Department
907-786-8900.
We are launching a statewide campaign getting
flyers out to all law enforcement, asking businesses to post these flyers from
now until, at least sentencing of Kenneth Dion, Bonnie’s killer, which will be October 31st. We have a Facebook page and web page www.AlaskaCitizensforJustice.com.
We are asking for everyone’s help.
Share it, pass it around, let’s
find some answers. Our goal is get these
killers behind bars and give the families, friends and communities the
opportunity to start to heal.
Press Conference will be held at the Alaska Scientific Crime Detection Laboratory at 5500 Tudor Road, September 28th at 11:00 am.
