At Oregon’s beautiful Oswald West State Park, a routine morning of maintenance work turned into a horrifying act of violence. On April 28, 1999, two unarmed Oregon State Park Rangers were abducted at gunpoint and led deep into the forest. The gunman had a violent criminal history that included a kidnapping and ransom plot that once landed him on the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list. In this episode, we also remember the two men behind the badges and discuss the lasting changes to ranger safety policies, the challenges of working in remote public lands, and the extraordinary resilience of a survivor who refused to give up.
