About this episode

In the last episode of Dark Downeast, you heard the story of Denise Hart and her still unsolved homicide in Vermont. I mentioned in that episode the case of another woman who grew up in the same city and around the same people as Denise. So, that’s the story I’m going to tell you today – the story of a young mother who walked out the door and got into a waiting vehicle with someone she and her family thought they knew, only to have her life end in his hands.
