53rd Street
53rd Street has undergone a significant number of changes since the murder. In 1985, it was a narrow dirt road that was lined with trees. A few years ago, the city redeveloped the area by removing the trees and widening the road. During the 1970s and 1980s, this section of 53rd Street picked up a reputation for being a popular "dumping spot" for dead bodies. Many murderers saw it as an ideal location to dispose of their victims. Although it was quiet and remote, it was also convenient due to its close proximity to Wichita.
