On July 1st, 2005, just after 5:00pm, LCSO dispatch received a report that two subjects were found dead on a Forest Service Road outside Oakridge. Deputies responded to a dispersed camp site off Forest Service Road 2134. They found two adults deceased. The deceased were identified as then 54-year-old Stevan Lynn Haugen and 56-year-old Jeanette Elaine Bauman. Stevan Haugen, Jeanette Bauman and their dog Ceasar were all killed by gunfire.
Lane County Detectives responded and investigated the scene. Despite countless hours of investigation, every lead in this case eventually went cold. The case continues to be investigated, now, by LCSO Cold Case Investigators. LCSO Cold Case investigators hope more information exists in the community that can help solve this decades old murder and bring closure to their families.
Anyone with any information about this case is asked to contact LCSO investigators at 541-682-4150.
