The next day, the two men went out with guns to hunt and Candra soon heard a shot.
He took them to a creepy location instead, and by this point it was too dark to turn back. Even though they were low on gas, the couple followed Brown to the promising fishing location. Brown promised to make a gas run for them if they ran out of gas. That stranger, Thomas Brown - named Sam in the movie and played by TC Matherne - told the couple that there was a recent fish dump at a spot where he was heading. Rule noted that the stranger “lit up” when he saw the young teenager. During that search, the real life couple came upon a man in an old mud-covered pickup. They brought their beloved collie Rusty along with them on their anniversary trip.Īs depicted in the movie, fishing was a big part of their trip, and in real life the couple did drive farther and farther downstream looking for the perfect spot to score. Rule noted in her book that “they were so much in love that her family didn’t object” to the age difference or the marriage. In the film “A Murder to Remember,” Javier (played by Kevin Rodriguez) and Robin Rivera (played by Maddie Nichols) are young in real life, Julio was 21 and Candra was just 16 when they set out to celebrate their first year of marriage. In Rule’s book, the Torres couple are referred to by the pseudonyms of Hank and Robin Marcus - much like how the movie changes the real-life names. In early 1976, the lawyer representing Patty Hearst - the newspaper heiress who was kidnapped in 1974 by revolutionary militants whom she later helped rob a bank with - claimed she had the syndrome, making the term infamous. The term - which indicates a psychological condition in which the victim develops a perceived connection with their captor - was popularized following a 1973 Swedish bank hostage incident, the BBC pointed out in 2013.
It was a case that brought the term "Stockholm Syndrome" back into the courtroom, just a few years after its creation. The 2001 book recounts several true crime cases, including one entitled “The Stockholm Syndrome,” in which Rule recounts Oregon couple Julio and Candra Torres’ camping trip to the foothills of the state’s Mount Hood.
