At first it was expected that the crime might be committed by robbers. Because Sherry Rasmussen's car was stolen, the police focused on the robbers. Because his BMW was found about two miles from their home ten days after the murder. Also, since stereo parts were found next to the dead body, the police confirmed that it might be the work of robbers.
A few days after Rasmussen's murder, two men robbed a woman at gunpoint This incident made the police more suspicious. A few months after the murder, they were caught at gunpoint by the police. As their house was a short distance from Rasmussen's house, the police concluded that they were the ones responsible for the murder.But on investigation it was found that they did not commit the murder.Several months after the case, reporters began questioning Rasmussen's parents. Rasmussen's father, Nels RasmussenLazarus, said in the preliminary investigation that both Rasmussen and Lazarus were dating John Rutten. Rasmussen worked as an intensive care nurse at the hospital and Lazarus continued to threaten Rasmussen at the hospital.Also "John is only for me" and threatens that if anyone else gets involved with him they won't be alive.
In addition, Rasmussen's father said there was another confrontation a month before the murder. He said Lazarus came to his house looking for Rasmussen and she was in uniform. Rasmussen told his father that Lazarus had called Rasmussen and threatened him a few days before the murder, and that Lazarus had been following him on the streets.The police immediately arrested Lazarus and brought him to the court. There, various questions were raised with Lazarus. The investigator started asking him questions. Lazarus, who answered all the questions in the negative, at one point confessed his crime with his own mouth. When they heard this, everyone in the court was shocked.
