In January of 1989 the director of Oregon’s Department of Corrections, Michael Francke, was brutally stabbed to death outside his office in Salem. His murder was quickly ruled a “car burglary gone wrong” and pinned on a low-level drug dealer named Frank Gable, a man who Francke's own brother, Kevin, along with storied Oregon reporter Phil Stanford, believe has been wrongfully imprisoned for nearly 30 years. They contend Francke had uncovered a dangerous trail of corruption in the prison system— one that lead to the top of Oregon’s political establishment. Murder In Oregon follows the two men on a decades-long quest, bordering on obsession, into Oregon’s drug and crime infested underbelly to answer one question: Who really killed Michael Francke?  Murder in Oregon is now available.
