On Oct. 15, 1999, the body of 35-year-old Keith Brian Dornan was found murdered inside his residence at 9310 SE Linwood Ave. in Milwaukie.

Keith Dornan owned and operated a 1997 Ford Ranger pickup -- which was later found parked, unoccupied, on the south side of the Clackamas Town Center parking lot, near SE Sunnyside Road.

Clackamas County Sheriff's Office Detectives have worked diligently since 1999 to solve this dreadful murder. The cash reward seeking information about this crime has since been increased to $15,000, which to this day remains unclaimed.

Sheriff's Office Detectives have made encouraging progress on this murder investigation, and remain confident they'll solve the case. They report that all that remains to complete their investigation is "one sliver" of information -- one small bit of information that will allow them to turn the case over to a prosecutor.

Detectives once again ask anyone with knowledge of the case to please come forward with information -- no matter how seemingly insignificant -- pertaining to the murder of Keith Dornan.

Anyone with information is encouraged to contact Clackamas County Sheriff's Office Det. Steve Hyson at 503-723-4982 (or via e-mail), or to call the Clackamas County Sheriff's Office Confidential Tip Line at 503-723-4949. Please reference
CCSO Case #99-42097.
