Summary

Terry Dolowy and her dog vanished in the early morning hours of February 14, 1985. 4 days later, her body was found, decapitated and on fire. Despite evidence being found, Terry’s case went cold and remained that way for multiple decades — until last year, when an arrest was finally made thanks to DNA. And one of our listeners unknowingly worked with the suspect before he was caught, and had some creepy experiences with him.
