Fox 17, Nashville, '96 Nashville tanning salon double murder suspect convicted in new sex crime
It remains one of Nashville's most high-profile cold cases. Melissa Chilton and Tiffany Campbell, both 18, were heinously stabbed to death in the Nashville tanning salon where they worked, in February of 1996. Patrick Streater, a suspect who previously dated Campbell, was arrested years later, after advancements in DNA testing. But before the case went to trial, prosecutors dropped the charges, saying they weren't confident enough with the evidence to go forward.
. . .
Now, nearly three decades later, the man once accused in the "tanning salon" double murder case is now facing nearly 10 years in prison for a separate sex crime conviction in Washington state.
In January 2024, Streater was arrested again, this time in Seattle, and charged with attempted rape and unlawful imprisonment. Court documents say a woman escaped from Streater’s car, half-naked, and screaming that someone was “trying to rape her.” The woman reported Streater threatened he would “break your (expletive) face” while restraining her in the back seat. She was able to flee the vehicle using pepper spray and run into a nearby gym, screaming for help.
