August 22nd: Helena Greenwood Found Dead (David Paul Frediani)(1985)

Every victim deserves justice. On August 22nd 1985 a woman’s body was found and, though everyone had a pretty good idea who the killer was, there was nothing connecting him to the crime that would warrant an arrest. So, from beyond the grave, she made sure to get the justice she deserved.

August 19th: Evelyn Udell’s Last Full Day Alive(2019)

Be careful of who you let into your home. No matter how temporary. On August 19th 2019 a woman spent her last day on earth before letting a man into her home to help out. A man who was only supposed to be there for a few hours at most and who used that time, just a few moments of it, to commit a truly savage act.
