The Murder of Robin Benedict Part One
Sometimes a person's life may look perfect from the outside: successful, intelligent, and living the American Dream. Then dark, nightmarish secrets surface and destroy everything. Robin Benedict was an aspiring graphic artist who turned to sex work to earn quick cash. When she meets a Tufts University professor Dr. William Douglas, her luck changes. Dr. Douglas lavishes Robin with expensive meals, gifts and cash. In March 1983, a year after her first encounter with the professor, Robin vanishes into thin air. What follows is a shocking crime that rocked Boston to it's core.
