Buried Truth: The Unabridged
Trilogy – 50 years later, Lincoln’s unsolved and unresolved murders
come alive!
[June 18, 2026]
Lincoln, IL – JUNE 2026 – This
year marks the 50th anniversary of the notorious 1976 Logan County,
Lincoln, Illinois, murders. Bonnie J. Thompson, a 19-year-old
courthouse employee and eyewitness at the time, observed suspicious
events surrounding the Schneider triple homicide. Haunted by the
murders, she draws on her father Roger W. Thompson’s legacy as the
Logan County State’s Attorney (1972-’80) and returns to Lincoln 25
years later to conduct her own investigation. While reinvestigating
the Ruth Martin cold case, she unwittingly uncovers a can of worms
exposing an apparent cover-up shedding new light on these
decades-old mysteries. The series covers:
The Michael Mansfield and Ruth Martin cold cases
The Schneider triple homicide: Lloyd, Phyllis, and Terri Schneider
The Fry double homicide, Jay, Robin, and the couple’s unborn child
The trilogy—Part One: Backtrack,
Part Two: Preponderance of Evidence, and Part Three: Plea for
Justice—offers a gripping, historically rich look at crime and the
human pursuit of truth and justice.
Buried Truth marks Bonnie J. Thompson as a powerful new voice in
true crime and historical mystery writing.
