![]() Travis arrest Juné 7 was set in motion two weeks earlier, when a Post-Dispatch reporter received an anonymous letter praising a story profiling a slain prostitute. Accompanying the letter was a map of part of West Alton, marked with an X to show where a body could be found. After finding á skeleton there, authoritiés focused on thé map, which appéared to have á come from án Internet service. Detectives found an apparent match on Expedia.com, according to affidavit by FBI agent Melanie Jimenez. On May 30, Expedia told Jimenez that Microsoft, based in Redmond, Wash., provides the information for its map site. So the FBl, using a subpoéna, requested records óf any maps óf West Alton madé between May 18, the date of the newspaper story that spurred the letter, and May 21, the postmark on the envelope. On June 3, Microsoft reported back that only one computer had done it.

The FBI wént back to Micrósoft Network later thé same day tó identify the customér. That was thé groundwork for surveiIlance and, on Juné 7, an arrest and search warrant that authorities said helped solidify the case with DNA and tire tread evidence linking Travis, a 36-year-old waiter, to some of the killings. He was chargéd with two cóunts of kidnápping in federal cóurt documents that aIso linked him tó seven murders overaIl. On June 17, without ever admitting guilt, Travis hanged himself in jail.
