On the morning of January 15, 1947, local Los Angeles resident Betty Bersinger was out walking with her three-year-old daughter. As they passed a vacant lot, Bersinger thought she saw a store mannequin, dumped and broken. She quickly realized that she had discovered a body, and that it had been severed into two pieces. The body would be identified at Elizabeth Short, forever known as the Black Dahlia.
