On April 28, 1977, 13-year-old Keith Fleming vanished from [[Cocoa Beach, Florida|Cocoa Beach]] after last being seen on the highway near a beach, just a few hundred yards from McRae's house.<ref name=":8" /> While McRae was questioned regarding the case, he was never arrested as no direct evidence indicated his responsibility. Fleming's body was never found.<ref name=":6" /> Two years later, McRae came under police scrutiny again after 12-year-old Kipling Randolph Hess III disappeared. Hess was last seen alive on March 27, 1979, walking on his way to school in the [[Merritt Island, Florida|Merritt Island]] area.<ref name=":8" /> However, he never showed up to class that day, and was declared missing. Upon leaving home, the boy left a note addressed to his parents that read "''Goodbye, Mom and Dad''." During the investigation, McRae became the main and only suspect in his disappearance, as it was determined that he and his son Martin had met Hess at a Catholic church carnival a few days prior to his disappearance.<ref name=":9" /> As in the Housey case, McRae joined the volunteer searches and assisted police in the search right up to the time he became a suspect.<ref name=":6" /> After the search ended, McRae was questioned while his apartment and the interior of his car were searched. Despite this, no evidence implicating him in Hess' disappearance was uncovered, and Hess remains missing. His body has never been found.<ref name=":9" /> On December 12, 1979, there was an escape from the Brevard Correctional Institution in [[Sharpes, Florida|Sharpes]], where McRae worked.<ref name=":8" /> It was orchestrated by a 20-year-old inmate named Charles Edward Collingwood, who was serving a 4-year sentence for stealing an automobile, but due to his immaculate prison record, he was put in the minimum security section. On the afternoon of December 12, Collingwood was doing landscaping work outside the facility with minimal security personnel, using his chance to escape. Circumstantial evidence established that McRae might have been involved in the escape. A number of informants told the prison authorities that McRae had been sexually harassing Collingwood for several months, after which Collingwood started [[blackmail]]ing and threatening to expose him.<ref name=":6" /> McRae denied having any inappropriate relations with the prisoner since, according to his testimony, Collingwood himself had been an informant and had given him information about other prisoners' activities.<ref name=":6" /> Collingwood was never found.<ref name=":9" /> The investigators suspected that Collingwood was murdered by McRae once he was outside, but ultimately, no charges were filed against him due to lack of evidence. In 1980, McRae was forced to resign from his job, after which he left Florida and returned to Michigan, settling in [[Clare County, Michigan|Clare County]], where he purchased a trailer and set it up on a leased piece of land. == Murder of Randy Laufer and capture == In 1987, McRae came under police attention again, in the disappearance of 15-year-old Randy Laufer on September 15.<ref>{{Cite news|last=Joe Swickard|date=November 30, 2004|title=Convicted killer returns to state and another boy disappears|work=Detroit Free Press|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/37119641/convicted-killer-returns-to-state-and/|via=Newspapers.com}}</ref> The teenager was a close friend of McRae's son and had even visited his trailer a few times. McRae was questioned, but at the time, no evidence implicating him was found.

Based on the chipped bones on the spine, neck and [[pelvis]], the examiner stated that the victim had been tortured before his death and had been repeatedly stabbed with a knife in various places.<ref name=":10" /> Using the bones as evidence, the 63-year-old McRae and his son were arrested in Mesa on October 15. Martin was subsequently released.<ref name=":10" /> == Trial and imprisonment == McRae's trial began in September 1998. Since there was no forensic evidence to incriminate him in Laufer's murder, prosecutors used evidence from the Housey trial, arguing that both cases showed a similar [[modus operandi]].<ref name=":7" /> In both cases, McRae was the last person seen with the victim and was involved in the searches, while both victims had numerous cuts on their bodies and were found buried near McRae's home.<ref name=":7" /> McRae was convicted of killing Laufer in December 1998, and was sentenced to life imprisonment without parole.<ref name=":11">{{Cite news|date=May 3, 2005|title=Retrial begins today for suspect in child killings|work=[[Lansing State Journal]]|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/37119735/retrial-begins-today-for-suspect-in/|via=Newspapers.com}}</ref> His attorneys appealed the decision on the grounds that McRae had been provided [[Ineffective assistance of counsel|ineffective assistance counsel]], which the court granted.<ref name=":8" /><ref name=":11" /> In the meantime, Martin McRae was convicted for molesting his daughter in [[Nevada]], for which he was given a 10-years-to-life sentence.<ref name=":8" /> In 2004, McRae's conviction was overturned and he was given a new trial, which began on May 3, 2005.<ref>{{Cite news|last=Joe Swickard|date=November 29, 2004|title='A very scary man amongst us'|page=1|work=Detroit Free Press|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/37119554/a-very-scary-man-amongst-us/|via=Newspapers.com}}</ref> Again, he was found guilty, and was re-sentenced to life imprisonment without parole. == Death == In the early 2000s, McRae began having health problems, eventually being diagnosed with a [[Peptic ulcer disease|stomach ulcer]].
