An Eerie Memory
Beverly was eight years old when the Charles Mattson murder took place, and here she was all these years later, and her own eight-year-old was missing. Beverly remembered riding her bike with her friends past the Mattson house. She pointed to it and declared, “That’s where the boy was taken from.”
Just like her daughter’s case, the Mattson case was also front-page news, and it also stirred a media storm. TV was relatively new back then, and the very first interview with Beverly Burr was filmed by KOMO-TV, a station in Seattle, just hours after Ann Marie went missing.
