Karen Elena Sprinker is abducted, raped and strangled by foot fetishist and serial killer Jerry Brudos aka The Lust Killer at the age of 19 in 3123 Center Street, Salem, Oregon, United States.

Brudos brought Sprinker to his garage and made her try on his collection of undergarments and pose while he photographed her, raped her, and strangled her by hanging her by her neck from a pulley. He had sex with the body on several occasions and cut off her breasts to make plastic molds. Afterwards he tied the body to a 6-cylinder car engine with nylon cord and threw it in the Willamette. During this attack Brudos was dressed in women's clothes.
