LAWRENCE — Forty years after three Kansans were found shot to death in a car near Ottawa, it still is unclear why the killings happened or who is responsible.
Hazel Avery, 60, her son, Steve, 19, and a family friend, Gary Longfellow, 23, were shot execution-style in her car.
Police say Steve Avery had been hitchhiking from Iola to Lawrence along K-59 highway in March 1973. He was going to testify on behalf of a friend in a Jefferson County custody case.
