An Army vet who once did time for killing a commanding officer was arrested for a decades-old double murder of two teenage boys in Oregon, officials said.
Steven Paul Criss, now 65, allegedly gunned down 16-year-old Donny Bartron and 18-year-old Pete Zito, Jr. in an execution-style shooting in a rec center parking lot in 1974, cops said this week.
The boys’ bodies were found the following morning by an Oregonian newspaper delivery driver.

Oregon has a long history of shoddy forensics.

According to the OregonLive.com article he murdered his sergeant over a few hundred dollars he owed for damaging a car. What a loser.

Wow. No word on which lab and absolutely no criticism of the sloppy lab work on the original ballistics tests.

The cadet shot his boss in the head five times over an argument, police said. Criss had damaged Brown's car and killed him instead of paying for repairs.Criss was sentenced to 35 years in jail but was released after 12. Disgusting beyond words.

The loser served a few months in the Army before murdering his Sergeant and being imprisoned in Leavenworth for 12 years, yet the headline characterizes him as “Army Vet” rather than “Convicted Murderer”.

After they returned his gun because they couldn’t match it. If the forensics been competent, a life would have been saved.

Someone might want to go and review past history. I’ll bet there’s more murders in the mix.

This man was convicted of murdering his supervisor (he was a DA civilian hire) a Non-com at Ft Lewis. He was sentenced to 35 years but was released after 15, Sentence time based on good time calculation of 2 days for 1 day of ‘good time’ served.
