Inna Budnytska was living temporarily in a Miami hotel when, on February 21, 2005, she was found dumped on the side of the road, viciously beaten, raped, and left for dead. The investigation into her attack quickly hit a dead end when no one could figure out how she left the hotel in the first place. She was seen on camera going up to her room, and then never seen on camera again. The case went cold, until Inna filed a lawsuit against the hotel, and the hotel hired private investigator Ken Brennan to look into the matter. And there was nothing Brennan loved more than a good mystery.
