    SALEM, Ore. -- The Oregon State Medical Examiner's Office announced Monday the death of 21-year-old Whitney Heichel was caused by multiple gunshot wounds.

    Heichel's body was found Friday afternoon on Larch Mountain in East Multnomah County.

    Dr. Christopher Young with the Oregon state medical examiner's office said the autopsy, which was performed on Saturday morning, showed Heichel 's death to be homicide, adding she was shot.

    An 11 a.m. news release from the Gresham Police Department included the following: "The Oregon State Medical Examiner's Office ... confirmed she died from multiple gunshot wounds."

    Detectives have not released how the suspect in the case, Jonathan Holt, 24, got access to the weapon.

    Young did not release any findings on Heichel's time of death.

    Officials believe Heichel was kidnapped on her way to work at Starbucks in Gresham on Tuesday.

    Detectives believe Heichel's neighbor and fellow church-goer, Holt, shot her in Clackamas County. Extensive searching for clues in Heichel's then-disappearance was done this past week at Dodge Park , in Clackamas County.

    The case is being prosecuted in Clackamas County.

    I do not know details but was Whitney Heichel a jW individual? May be someone from the area might shed additional information.

    I'm saying this in all seriousness - unfortunately...

    Do you suppose that he heard the "voice of god" telling him to commit this terrible deed?

    He may say that ZID,especially because he was spiritually weak being an "irregular attender" , but we all know the JWs will claim it was the Demons talking to him. May be the basis for his defense...?

    Multiple times sounds like a "see what you made me do" moment. Wasnt enough that he couldnt have her, but he held her in contempt because of that towards the end.

    I wish that this crime was getting more national coverage...

    On second thought [thinks about the O.J. Simpson trial] , maybe not.

    I'll be following this as it progresses.

    I question it even being newsworthy as this stuff goes on all the time. We find it interesting on here for the obvious reasons, but had they been of another faith I wouldnt have even clicked the link. Not to sound callous but it would have been just another young white woman missing to me. Maybe the JW factor fascinates nonJWs?

    Pure speculation:

    1) There was something going on between the victim and the murderer. That is why this kind of stuff happens.

    or

    2) The murderer thought there was "something" going on between him and the victim: unrequited love/stalker scenario. Less likely because there would have been signs before it reached this stage.

    I'm sure these two possibilities are what the police are teasing through right now.
