This week Tori brings you a case of an Ohio woman who was brutally attacked by her ex boyfriend. Judith (Judy) Malinowski was being brought to rehab by her abusive ex boyfriend, Mike Slager, when he stopped and, after aruging, poured gasoline down Judy's body and lit her aflame. The following two years before Judy's death consisted of multiple trials for Mike and surgeries for Judy, all while her family fought for laws in Ohio to be changed. Content warning for domestic violence, drug addiction, physical abuse, arson, and murder. Please listen with care.
