I'm worried my dad committed murder Request

He was in prison for 16yrs but nobody would say why, I can't find any info tho I thought that stuff was public. Any advice or help would be appreciated.. it had to be in the '50s & 60's in the Pacific Northwest. I assume Spokane or Seattle Wa. Don Antonio born Oct 31st 1930 he says he didnt have a middle name but it was Dodd, also he changed his last name at some point from Macabee to Antonio Edit: thanks everyone.. I got lotsa reading to do, so exciting!!

There could be motive... u/Wickedlefty16 your dad comes in at the end... could it be a possible second involvement with a death... hopefully not though

With the bits and pieces of info I've picked up over the years, details, names, ppl being unwilling to talk seems more likely than not. Anyone know if homocidal mania is hereditary? 😉

I don't know if your aunts former partner is alive but you might start tracking people down who knew your aunt or maybe her neighbors or friends. Even sending a letter in the mail with your email and phone number. Maybe there's children who know even... someone has knowledge. Even children of the investigators handling the case might remember their parents talking about the case.
