My name is Jennifer Hopper, and I am the survivor of the South Park attacks of July 19, 2009.

My family calls me Jenny. My friends call me Jen. And my late partner, Teresa Butz, often called me J-Hop.

For the past two years, I have been known as "the surviving victim of the South Park rapes and murder," or simply as "Butz's partner." And for the most part, I have been grateful for the protective bubble given to me by the media. But I am now ready to be known in a new way.

At first, I was afraid to be known more fully. Over time, it became more about protecting my professional life. Most recently, I felt that revealing my identity might somehow cloud the focus of the trial of Isaiah Kalebu, the man who on July 1 was found guilty of entering uninvited, as we slept, into the home that Teresa and I shared in South Park, where he raped us, murdered Teresa, and attempted to murder me.

It didn't matter who I was, I thought as I went through this process. I was known by name to my family and my friends, but anonymous to the general public, and that was fine. The only thing that matter

Trial continues today for 2 of Steve Bushaw’s alleged murderers

This afternoon at the King County Courthouse, pre-testimony proceedings in the trial of Brandon Chaney and Bryce Huber are scheduled to resume.

Huber (left) and Chaney (right), are two of the four men who were charged with gunning down 26-year-old Steve Bushaw along California north of Edmunds in The Junction on Super Bowl night in 2009. The other two, Danny O’Neal and John Sylve, already have pleaded guilty. As mentioned earlier, we were in court as proceedings began Monday afternoon.

Toplines: The case has a new prosecutor, Jeff Baird, because the one originally assigned to the case, James Konat – who won the case against South Park killer/rapist Isaiah Kalebu earlier this summer – was taken off it amid a controversy over racist remarks he made in an unrelated case in which a conviction was overturned as a result. Baird gained fame last decade for leading the Green River Killer prosecution team. His first major announc

Some may remember the triple homicide that shook Bellevue’s Somerset Hill in 1994.

Others may have just learned about the crime through the recently released Netflix docu-series, “The Confession Tapes.”

The documentary-style, multi-episode, “true crime” series begins with two episodes titled “True East,” and are dedicated to the Rafay murders. The episodes introduce viewers to the “Mr. Big” technique used by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police – Canadian-equivalent to the FBI – and brings in a Mr. Big expert to analyze what led to the incarceration of Atif Rafay and Sebastian Burns, who were teenagers at the time of the murders.

“True East” begins with Burns being encouraged to confess in a hotel room. Then, minutes later, his troubled voice. It’s 2:01 a.m., July 13, 1994, and he had just called 911 to report the death of his friend Atif Rafay’s parents Tariq and Sultana, and his sister, Basma, at their new home.

All three family members had been bludgeoned to death.

The Rafay family h
