Edward Schad
On August 1, 1978, Lorimer Graves, a 74-year-old Bisbee resident, left Bisbee in a new Cadillac on a trip to Everett, Washington, to visit his sister.
On August 9, 1978, Graves' badly decomposed body was discovered hidden in the brush just off U.S. Highway 89 south of Prescott. Mr. Graves had been strangled with a rope that was still knotted around his neck.
A month later, Schad was stopped for speeding in New York.
Schad was driving Mr. Graves' Cadillac, and many of Mr. Graves' personal belongings were in the car
