Moreover, eight months after Laura was killed, Clark confessed and helped the police find her body. Police started investigating him after learning that, at the time of Michelle Dorr’s disappearance, he resided two houses down from her father.
Michelle’s blood was later discovered on the wooden floorboards of an upstairs bedroom after police searched his brother’s former home for signs of blood. Later, Clark directed authorities to her body in January 2000.
Alleged Murders
Clark has admitted to killing numerous people, beginning when he was a teenager. He claimed in a letter from 2004 that he had murdered the unnamed woman known as “Lady of the Dunes” in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, in 1974.
In his explanation, Clark said that he had hidden the murder scene’s evidence in his grandfather’s garden and that he knew the woman’s identity but was choosing not to notify the police because he felt they had treated him unfairly.
Moreover, the Police doubt the authenticity of the confession because the man has psychiatric problems. On December 15, 2000, he took officers to his grandparent’s old home, where they found a plastic bucket containing more than 200 pieces of jewelry.
The goods included Laura Houghteling’s class ring from high school. They were “trophies,” according to Clark, that he stole from his victims.
