Någon som har hela storyn om de mord som Annika Östberg ska ha deltagit i? Vet inte om det var på den här sidan eller någon annanstans jag läste den tidigare. Hur de avrättade bl.a en polis och ska ha varit rejält påtända? Har aldrig hört den historien i svenska media, därmot jämt hur synd det är om henne (vilket det kanske är?). Skulle vara intressant att i detalj få se vad som verkligen hände de där dagarna för 10-20- någonting åren sedan.

Denna text beskriver det ena av morden, det på en polis (observera att de hänvisar till Annika Östberg med hennes engelska efternamn, Deasy):
Deasy and her boyfriend William Eugene Cox met Hellbush shortly after midnight on May 2, 1981, when the car they were in – purchased days earlier with a bad check – broke down on the side of Highway 29 near Manning Flat. Parking in front of them, Hellbush asked the couple for identification. Deasy did not have a driver’s license, but she nonetheless followed her boyfriend’s instructions to look for one in the purse she’d left on the passenger seat. "As Sgt. Hellbush’s attention was focused on her, COX shot him once in the back of the head and three times in the back," said Hopkins. "Then she (Deasy) told COX to drag the body into the ditch so it wouldn’t be visible (from the road), and after he did that and was starting to come back to the car, she told him to get his wallet, too."
Deasy and Cox also took Hellbush’s service revolver. They then fled toward Middletown in his patrol car. COX lost control of the vehicle on Highway 175 after being chased at high speeds by a sheriff’s deputy who had come to investigate Hellbush’s radio silence. A shootout between COX and three law enforcement officials – the sheriff’s deputy, a reserve, and a highway patrolman – followed, during which time Deasy helped Cox reload his weapons, according to Hopkins. When Cox came out of Hellbush’s patrol car shooting, "the reserve deputy dropped him with one shot to the shoulder," Hopkins said. Deasy then disobeyed orders and went to her boyfriend, who’d fallen in a field of grass, and began feeling around for his gun. "She said they’d made a suicide pact and that they weren’t going to be taken alive," said Hopkins. "We were going for broke, we weren’t going back to jail," she said in an interview with detectives.
