Below is a rough chronology of his high-level crimes &#8212; and the times he did time for his crimes. Those gaps &#8212; when he was off the street &#8212; were the few times women felt safe in Anchorage. But this post is (mainly) about something else. It&#8217;s about the ones who got away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some women escaped a certain death. They got away from him, or he returned them to Anchorage, bruised, battered but alive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We suspect &#8212; we know &#8212; that others also got away relatively unscathed. We&#8217;re not taking Hansen&#8217;s word for it (although he made that claim). There was, for example, an Alaska State Trooper employee who met Hansen through a Sunday Singles ad. She went to his house and left with her honor (and life) intact. A manager at the Wild Cherry topless bar referred to some of her dancers as &#8220;Hansen survivors.&#8221; So it was possible to survive an encounter with Robert Hansen. They just didn&#8217;t know in advance if that was their lucky day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below is a list of some of the women we know got away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><div>Victim Chronology<\/div><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Susan Marie Heppeard<\/strong> (November 15, 1971; November 22, 1971) ESCAPED<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Patty Roberts<\/strong> (AKA, Sandra Patterson) (December 19, 1971) RETURNED UNHARMED<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hansen Arrested<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Hansen: Convicted of Assault with Dangerous Weapon, Susan Heppeard case (March 24, 1972)<\/li><li>Hansen: Transferred to Halfway House (June&nbsp;17, 1972)<\/li><li>Hansen: Paroled (November&nbsp;1,&nbsp;1973)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Unidentified Female<\/strong> (September 28,&nbsp;1975) RETURNED UNHARMED<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hansen Arrested<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Hansen: Larceny in a Building (Fred Meyer) (November&nbsp;3,&nbsp;1976)<\/li><li>Hansen: Sentenced&nbsp;on&nbsp;larceny charge (April 8, 1977)<\/li><li>Hansen: Released from&nbsp;custody (September 1, 1978)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Christine Hayes<\/strong> (October 14, 1979) ESCAPED<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cindy Paulson<\/strong> (June 13, 1983) ESCAPED<\/p>\n\n\n<hr>\n<p><em>Copyright 2019.
