Richard Eberling and the Death of Myrtle

Richard Eberling was convicted of forgery theft and aggravated murder in July of 1989. Many people believe that he was also responsible for the death of Ethel's sister, Myrtle, years prior to this. Both women were found semi nude and had their pajamas partially pulled from their bodies. In both cases, the murder weapon was never found. A blunt instrument was used in both killings. There was no obvious sign of a break in in either case. And after each killing, Richard Eberling insisted that a woman was responsible for each murder.
