Susan Kuhnhausen Turned The Tables On Her Hitman And Proved Every Woman Could Be A Hero

Police Identified Susan’s Attacker And Linked Him To Mike

Police quickly identified Susan’s attacker as Ed Haffey, a 59-year-old Vietnam Vet. He had a number of crimes under his belt including the 1991 murder of his ex-girlfriend. He arranged her hit and her decomposed body was found near the Umpqua River. He pleaded guilty and served nine years of jail time, but was hired by Mike as a janitor in 2004.

Haffey was quickly tied to Susan’s ex-husband. Officers found Haffey’s backpack which contained Hershey’s syrup, $200 in cash, diabetes pills, a daybook and a pay stub. The daybook had an entry from two days prior that read, “Call Mike.” Mike’s new phone number was found in a manila envelope inside of the backpack.
