Death of Vicki Lynn Harrell


Vicki Lynn Harrell was a 25-year-old divorcee who was last seen alive on August 12, 1972. She was seen getting into a four-door, dark blue 1965 Plymouth Valiant in the K-Mart parking lot in Bloomington, Indiana.

When her roommate had not heard from her they got worried. They reported her missing on August 13, 1972. Her car was found on August 14, 1972, near the parking lot of College Mall in Bloomington, Indiana. The body of Vicki Harrell was found the same day.

Her nude body was found lying face down in a water-filled ditch on an access road to McCormick's Creek State Park, approximately 2.5 miles east of Spencer, Indiana. Her body had signs of sexual assault. She had been strangled and had the letters KN carved into her chest after death.

I do realize in official reports and in the newspapers that Vicki's name is spelled as Vickie. I used the spelling of Vicki because that was what was on her gravestone.
