Summary
It was a bitterly cold night on Saturday, January 31, 2004 in Racine, Wisconsin. It was the type of frigid air that made even breathing painful. A 911 call came through earlier that day & the dispatcher heard a woman say that her ex-husband was trying to kill her. The woman had placed the call from inside a garbage can that had been filled with snow while she was being held prisoner in her ex-husband’s truck as he drove her to an unknown location.
