On March 22nd 2018, 24 year old Alex Woodworth was found viciously stabbed to death in the back of a white car that was stuck in the mud on the outskirts of a remote Wisconsin diary farm.
When the girl he was last seen with appeared at the front door of that same dairy farm--barefoot, disheveled & shaking, & pleading for help with the word "boy" carved into her arm...law enforcement believed her to be the victim of a violent attack & wasted no time trying to find the perpetrator.
Until they found the car.
