I appreciate all your help David, without you there would never be any
peace
for me. I tried to get all our news stations to do a story on my boys,
but
the closest I got was Dateline said they would keep me in their files.
The
rest just wouldn't come anywhere near. I am very thankful and have
hopes
that maybe justice can be done still.
I am also very grateful for
kmedia.com. Also I am thankful for all who wrote
and care about our children.
With love,
Roberta
The first thing that is wrong in this 'so-called' double suicide case of Robert and Ben is the autopsy.
It says the boys died at 9:30 A.M. The police were called to at 8:25 AM but they didn't come over to our house to
investigate until 5:00 P.M. A lot of things can be changed in those lost hours.
When Deputy Mike Roberts came over to our
house, he checked both my ex-husband's hands and mine for powder burns. They didn't
have any. The autoposy report said there were powder burns on both boy's
hands.
It wasn't till months later I found out an older brother taught
Robert and Ben how to shoot the gun, SHORTLY before they died. That would
explain the powder burns on their hands.
Deputy Roberts was very much
distressed because he was the only one on the case. He said there should be
at least 4 or 5. He was sure it was a double murder. At first I couldn't
believe I heard a shot. I figured I must have imagined it, because my ex-husband never
mentioned a shot.
It is extremely hard to realize and accept that the person you were married to for 22 years
could be capable of killing one of his children. I drove in and met him
coming out of the trail. He said they both killed themselves and the gun is
there. He also said 'Don't go any closer'.
Deputy Roberts said he thought that the boy's father, John, drove down and killed both boys
after I left the house that morning.
My lawyer wants the police to close the case so he can compare DNA taken
from Ben's right arm. If it matches Robert's blood, then we will know
Robert was shot first.
Deputy Mike Roberts
already established Benjamin's arms were too short to kill himself, when he
tried it
with his 10 year old son. I still have, on a tape,
my son Robert saying, 'double murder'.
Sheriff Wirsing was going to get the tape analyzed to
find out every word. He never did! I still have the tape, because I kept
the origina1. The boys had made an actual map of the exact location in
Watchtower magazines. I have copies of these maps.
and all they had written.

Dear Sheriff Heitkempter,
I have sent you much information on what I believe happened to my two sons on 8/30/1993. No matter how much I try I cannot get answers. There is a very real danger here. I have written many letters. Also calls I have had to make regarding the safety of my daughter Lisa. I know your hands are tied- due to the judge's decree added to the divorce papers. You know the Watchtower helped John get it in the decree that he can take her to the Kingdom Hall on his time, you know how the judge gave him permission to cajole her to go. Well it has been over 7 years now and I have no answers. When you talked to me you wondered what the motive is. How do you think it feels to have to worry about your daughter's safely when they are together? How do you think it is for me when I have to call 911 because I am worried about my daughters safety? How do you think I feel when I am forced to let her go to a place that thinks I should be dead and has no problems saying it, in their Watchtowers and Awakes and in their public talks. That is not good for Lisa to be thrown into a reverse situation where her father teaches her hate and with me she learn about God's great love for all people.
Her life and mine could be in danger. I am sending you another case scenario. If you don't care about me… care about Lisa..she shouldn't have to go through this hell. She tells me "You don't have to worry about me as long as I keep going to the hall. I asked her "what do you think will happen if you stop going? She says she is afraid to think! It is our responsibility to protect our little ones. They desperately need our protection. I want her to have a happy life, full of friends….not end up in the ground like her brothers.
Look into this! What will happen if you don't do anything?
Sincerely,
Roberta
Sheriff reopens case of Ogema brothers' deaths
Patti Wensel -The Bee Sept 21,2000
Sheriff Richard Heitkemper informed The Bee on September 13, 2000 that he has reopened the case of the 1993 deaths of two young boys in Ogema.
Heitkemper said he reopened the case of Robert and Benjamin Moore after he read the case file and had questions that he could not find the answers. After consulting with other law-enforcement officers, both in and out of Price County, Heitkemper decided to we open the case.
Price County Sheriff investigator Michael Roberts has been revealing the case files for approximately a year, according to Heitkemper. He added some physical evidence is currently at this date crime lab in Madison undergoing testing.
Heitkemper did not say if any charges would be filed in connection with this new investigation.
The bee made an open records request on September first to view of the contents of the case file. Heitkemper denied the bee's request, saying the case had been reopened and was actively being investigated. Heitkemper did say in a letter he would continue to advise the bee when the results of the investigation are complete.
Robert and Benjamin Moore were found shot to death in their car on the Pine line Trail in August 1993. The cause of death was officially listed as a self-inflicted gunshot wound for each boy following autopsies in St. Paul MN
However, in recent years, the boys mother, Roberta Moore, has changed her mind that the boys killed themselves out of hatred of school or fear of their religious beliefs. Instead, she now says the boys were murdered and has shared her beliefs with documentary filmmakers psychics.
