The grisly triple murder of a mother, father and son found slain in a bathtub in 1972, has been solved 50 years later, thanks to information from a Georgia inmate, officials announced.Bryce Durham, 51, his wife Virginia, 44, and son Bobby, 18, were found dead in their home during a snowstorm on Feb. 3, 1972, in a chilling attack that became locally known as the “Durham Case.”
A lead in the case first emerged in 2019 when Shane Birt, the son of Billy Sunday Birt, visited the White County Sheriff’s Office in Georgia to participate in research for a book about notorious crimes in the state. Watauga County Sheriff Len Hagaman said the department investigated new leads and conducted in-person interviews with Billy Wayne Davis in September 2019, October 2020 and August 2021.
“I would like to thank all of the people who worked for decades on my family’s case. I know that they sacrificed many days and weekends in order to work on solving this case since 1972," she said, noting some officers continued to work on her family's case even in retirement.
