Info

Fiercely independent, hazel reimann was an active senior who still mowed her own lawn and drove her own car. A former riveter who worked on airplanes during world war ii, the 87-year-old des moines resident loved gardening, yard work and running around with her sister, helen burklund. On tuesday, september 2, 2008, hazel’s plans included picking up helen and taking her to the doctor. But when hazel didn’t show up as expected, helen — also of des moines — drove over to her sister’s southeast watrous avenue house just after 1 p.M. There, in the home’s kitchen, she found a bloody, horrific crime scene leading to the basement, where she discovered her sister’s lifeless body in a pool of blood.
