he was out still looking for me. >>en fortunately guarde waited two years to call police and tell them about her encounter. if she had called earlier, the man who had boldly showed her his identification might have moved onto the list of suspects a lot sooner. by the time rebecca decided to make that call, the same man had already been involved in another incident that brought him to the attention of dave reichert. that encounter began on april 30th, 1983, nearly a year after the first five bodies had been found at the river. 18-year-old marie malvar got into a blue pickup truck at a bus stop just a few blocks where rebecca was picked up. her boyfriend, who watched out for her when she worked the streets, noticed she seemed to be arguing with the customer. so he decided to follow them but lost the truck at a light. he panicked when marie did not return after several hours. he told marie's father the next morning.
