CORVALLIS, Ore. (AP) — A woman who was found shot in the Oregon woods arrived in the United States last month from Russia and was having a relationship with the man arrested in her death, authorities said Monday.

The identity of Anna Alekseyevna Repkina, 27, was released on Monday, a week after her body was found on a remote logging road near Alsea, a Benton County town about 110 miles (177 kilometers) southwest of Portland.

 . . .

In a Facebook page under her name that shows the same photo released Monday by authorities, Repkina said she was from Moscow and had moved to Corvallis, Oregon.

Prosecutors believe she was in an "interesting love-triangle relationship" with murder suspect William Chase Hargrove and another woman, Senior Deputy District Attorney Amie Matusko said in a phone interview with The Associated Press.

1. Poor woman!

What on earth was a pretty, kind looking woman like that doing with that evil looking, hideous, disgusting thug in the first place? What a tragedy!

2. You are kind to point that out. They don't look like people with anything in common at all.

It seems unimaginable they could even meet anywhere, go to any of the same places.

3. I am going to guess they met on-line.

She just came from Russia in March.

4. You know, you're probably right. I never thought of that. Makes perfect sense. So sad. n/t

5. Mail order bride?

Repkina entered the United States through Los Angeles International Airport using Russian travel documents on March 1, Ridler said. She was living in Corvallis and did not appear to have a job, he said.

Authorities said they believe Repkina came to Oregon "for the relationship," but they are seeking more details in the unusual case, Matusko said.
